    Thank you.

    How did I not know the 5 for £1 sweets were glitching again :huh:?

    Are there other ongoing glitches that some of us are aware of but assume everyone else knows (like the sharpies that have been going so long that they rarely get a mention now :D)? Perhaps a reminder is in order :A.

    Yesterday's shop :)

    Thanks Izzey.
  • Good morning. As I still have three conditional spends and I received all of those cleaning vouchers I thought I'd have a quick look at waities site again. £20 for 60 dishwasher tablets:eek: are they having a laugh. The annoying thing about when they hike the prices to then give you a half price voucher is that if I sent my dh to go and buy dishwasher tablets, on this occassion, he would buy them because id asked for them and wouldn't look at the price, because he doesn't shop so he doesn't know the price of things. This is probably a poor example of what I mean but you see my point. When they double the price of wine and charge £11 for Isla Negra and most of us would say ha but who would pay that.......think if me because my husband would:o

    There's £1.20 cb back on GJ though :money:

    I knew I'd seen £1.20 off somewhere but thought it was a Sainsbury's offer and had finished.

    Good morning all.

    Mrsmac, I would love to say it was sunny this morning here in Belfast but alas not. It is grey and dank, however that shouldn't dampen the good ole Norn Iron hospitality. I hope you enjoy your trip to our lovely city.

    Good morning all, looks like we might have had a little rain overnight, but nowhere near enough.

    Today I am planning on removing the old wallpaper from the kitchen walls. We have to cover up a problem created by the previous people that lived here (we have lived here for 32 years :eek:) that just is not feasible to correct without spending a fortune so there is a feature corner wall in the kitchen. It actually works quite well, it is away from the cooking area anyway, more in the prep area, and it breaks it up nicely.

    I also have walls and ceiling to wash, shelves to take down, window sills to clear, woodwork to sand, gosh that sounds like a lot of work for today and tomorrow :eek:
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare
