    Thanks Izzy.......Sada should pay you not to tell us your finds!

    Shop done AvT at 17:47

    Not sure if every1 is aware the 5 for £1 sweet glitch from a while back is still working. TRIGGER (not showing on receipt is still strawberry fizzy wands BC ends 74062) I bought with 4 wham chews (not the long single 10p one)

    0.23x ASDA Loose White Baking Potatoes (Typically 0.5kg) (per kg) £0.23 N/A
    1x MAOAM Giant Strawberry Stripes (1pk) £0.10 £0.10
    1x ASDA Smart Price Garden Peas in Water (300g) £0.21 £0.21
    1x Swizzels Refreshers Original Lemon Flavour (18g) £0.10 £0.10
    9x Heinz Beanz in Tomato Sauce Snap Pots (4x200g) £22.32 £13.50
    1x Heinz Spaghetti Hoops in Tomato Sauce Snap Pots (4x190g) £2.49 £1.50
    1x ASDA Smart Price Chopped Tomatoes in Tomato Juice (400g) £0.29 £0.31
    0.13x ASDA Grower's Selection Loose Onion (order by number of onions or select kg) (per kg) £0.10 £0.09
    1x Barratt Flumps (12g) £0.10 £0.10
    4x Wham Cosmic Chews Pack (36g) £1.44 £0.80 get the strawberry fizzy wands with this costing £1 but get 64p back on APG
    0.17x ASDA Grower's Selection Loose Banana (order by number of bananas or select kg) (per kg) £0.12 £0.12

    It's slightly better than that (assuming it still works) - it's 72p back. Thanks for this, I might use it next time (if it's still on) as a filler when I do a shop. I've not been shopping v.much at A very recently - I've been taking the approach of saving money by not buying anything at all, but I will now be shopping there at some point - I might eventually post the posts I'm putting off at the moment.

    It seems like I haven't stepped foot inside a Tesco in months.

    I called in A today and treated myself to some free Tomato Ketchup crisps....a 6 pack:).....my voucher was accepted ok.........


    However........can you believe.....there's a lot of opened 6 pack outers on the shelves. This promotion may be problematic:o

    Yes, have a think, it's so frustrating.

    He's fine, has met a little girlfriend who lives next door. She's black and white and very fluffy and 15, so 6 years older than him!

    He went in her house today :eek: DH, the lady next door and I were all laughing :rotfl:

    Stanley?

    OH has the first fix water/drainage in, but he needs to get the brown water to the toilets (but we still have not got bathroom fittings... well I tell a lie he bought a huge/massive resin shower tray for £20... :T:T:T
    and we have British white porcelain loos....about 30 of them from a job lot!

    Which tiles are you getting?



    I don't know anything.... BH you need to post an update each week of all the offers... :T:T:T

    Great you've made a start and gathering the materials and products in :D. That's a bargain shower tray, 7 loos, wow!

    We think we are going for the Pizarra, Tierra for the en suites and Multicolour for the bathroom and downstairs shower room. DH thinks we should have the same tiles in each room but I want something different as it may get boring :o

    OMG, I know what you mean...a couple months ago I walked past a 'communal loo' in a flipping school I was :eek::eek::eek::eek: The kids did not have uniform and called the teachers by their first name... I really just do not get it.

    God knows what we are going to do with all the loos
    ... we need 7, the rest will eventually find a new home.. they were supposed to be the last batch of British porcelain made (but we think that that is cr*p:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:).
    You have made me yawn!

    I'm sure you'll be able to sell them on either singly or as a smaller job lot later SMM - hopefully, at a profit :money:

    As for communal loos - that is a no-no for me. I can't believe it :eek:

    Oh I forgot, I had a c&c at 4pm and sharpies still working - ordered 2 and they were in stock and I kept them. They are actually good razors

    There's too much going on at the best of times without worrying about communal loos.....

    where to balance your handbag if there's no hooks

    How to get out without touching anything

    Wearing heels and hoovering



    Oh I'm leaving that one in:rotfl::rotfl:

    Hovering:rotfl:

    Anymore toilet difficulties ladies?:D

    Or gents?:rotfl:
