Good morning all...

Congratulations to the TS's on their wedding anniversary...here's to many more x

off to write my tenants an email...I've finally made a decision on going forward.

But some Elite who have been playing the banking/savings game for years must know they will be over the limit so what will happen at the end of the tax year?

They send you a refund, eventually. Or if you are due tax they will ask you to pay it or can adjust your tax code for next year if you are working.

Multi missing off new Princes & Del Monte canned fruit offer, £1.00 each or 2 for £1.50

https://groceries.asda.com/promotion/2-for-pound350/ls87467

Some (not all) of the Princes are on offer in Tesco at 80p each. Making them 47p a can (thanks squigs :T ) I can’t see any good comparison for the Del Monte.

24 pack Weetabix golden syrup flavour not updated as yet, £2.68 each, offer 2 for £4.00. Confirmed working yesterday.

https://groceries.asda.com/promotion/2-for-pound350/ls87511

On offer in Morries at 2 for £3.00. £5.36 v £3.00 so £1.34 for 2 boxes after APG.

Buy in 10’s. £3.25 for 10 tins. Confirmed working last night, thanks to marmite’s shop.

Thanks squigs for the sums :T

Might be worth checking on asda link before shopping that they haven’t dropped the unit price (as they did with the cereals down to £2 a box).

Multi still missing off the Kellogg's cereals but obviously not comparing as well as they could have.

https://groceries.asda.com/promotion/2-for-pound350/ls87518

I didn’t notice any cereal confirmations yesterday.

Good Morning
Wrong link.The one highlighted is for uncle bens which looks like back on 2 for £3 so won't glitch today.
This is the one for tin fruit.

and yes I should have had Carnival shares years ago but I had a best price in my head of £25 and they have not been that much for decades (except maybe the day when Concordia happened sadly)
also to get your 100 shares would have been £2500 - as much as a cruise itself.
when we first started cruising Mr T was generous and he part paid for the first 2.5 - that time 6 years ago really we should have bought shares then but the finances would not have stretched enough - hindsight is a wonderful thing

You could have got them 8 years ago for £16 a share. £60 back for every weeks cruise, or £150 back for a 2 week cruise, and they tend to do good dividend payments, so someone buying then would have had their money back by now easily if they cruised 2 weeks a year, and of course their £1600 worth of shares would now be worth £4650 :eek:
