The Co-op near DD's old house is transferring to McColl mid-June, so I've had a bit of a shop today -

185g tuna steaks 40p
215g wild red salmon £1
Honey 40p
Apricot jam 24p

Also Bin liners and Cling film 50p

Going back tomorrow for more.

My local closed last weekend and I got some great bargains. Look out for salad dressings, chutneys, porridge oats and check out the tea and coffee aisle.

Also got some fab white wines down from 6.99 to 2.79, then used my co-op card for additional discount as they were own branded and then my student discount card on top!

My store closed on Sunday so I was going in twice a day from Thursday to pick up their fresh reductions, they were selling off packs of cheddar cheese, fresh parmesan cheese and chorizo for 35p which were all in date until August. I filled the little fridge in the garage .

I put half a teaspoon and a big pinch of ginger into my smoothies - it takes some getting used to but turmuric is extensively used in India for its preventative and restorative powers so I am persisting
Sainsbobs sell it in ethnic section in plastic bags

Apparently you can get Turmeric Lattes too:)_pale_

How long have you been taking it mhoc?

Lovely, well done.

It pays to keep popping in as they keep finding more lines to reduce, I got loads of butter from another one that closed near me, that was around the 30p mark. Peanut butter today was literally peanuts, around 30p, but sadly I don't like it.

Nappies were £1 for 24.

Lovely, well done you too. The pampers wipes were still 1.69 a pack even on the last day, I don't know what they did with the stuff which wasn't cleared, guessing it went to other stores.
