To celebrate would you all like a piece of Farmhouse Fruit Loaf taken from my new recipe book;)

Yes please that looks lovely

I must be on another world with my expectations of prices, as I have got this in M at £2 - but thought that that £2 was a bit on the high side. (I've therefore put £2 with ":eek:" on the list.) However, I notice Sains is £5 (a long row of eeks surely?) although that is 6% above "average" so you shouldn't take any notice of that as it's too high - indeed, if prices go from one extreme (full price) to another (half price) and then average is in between the two, it should be even lower than that.

On the S side of msm, it shows them as going down to £3.97 but even then - obviously they don't want to match M or even match anyone else at all - nearly twice the cost of M's RTC. Which itself - £2 for what you'd get - 600g! - is very dear IMO. I'd expect about half of about a quarter of the price (if £4 is supposedly "half" price), but clearly I'm not going to get that just yet!

Separately, I did have the Air Wick Crystal Air Golden Woodlands & Nectar product at £1 and ":eek:" on the list, but have come across that again, at £1, and now removed the ":eek:" as other places are £3! For me, £1 was too expensive:rotfl:. (In fact I shouldn't be being influenced by £3 being three times the price, because the usual offers for Crystal Air are £2, or even below - one of them at least was regularly £2 in M in the past few years, so really I should still think £1 is expensive in the context of £2 being an offer and wanting to get much much lower than that and not be taken by £3 making the £1 seem more reasonable - my guide price really, for what it is, should be 50p:rotfl:.)

There are a lot more Air Wick products now on the list, at RTC prices in M, including a candle at 49p and also a Life Scents refill at 63p - other flavours of that apparently are £5:eek:! There may still be another Air Wick product to add later, at about 50p, from another M - so check back later - again best of luck on finding these products.

Well done TM.

I still don't have any of the cashback sites on my phone but must investigate if I can do this on the tablet.

It comes to something when there's an ice-cream tub of carrot peelings in the freezer. No, I haven't lost the plot, the g/kids now have a pair of rabbits lolloping round the garden so suddenly my stalks and stems and peelings are in demand. Can't visit every day, so at least this will keep them fresh and I'm quite pleased there will be no more waste.

It was like a scene from Snow White the other day, DD pottering in the garden with the rabbits popping up here and there, lots of birds in the trees and an almost-tame robin sitting on the fence.

Evening!

After a wet start it turned into a lovely day. The summer weather is so much better down here

I got £10 and Mr TM got £10:D:rotfl:

I could never be as lucky again. A pure guess got 4/5 twice.

Really worth trying. I don't know what the odds are but I reckoned that we would never get the answers right if we thought about it so I thought we might as well guess:T
Guessing very quickly is the key:)

:eek::eek:

What an absolute fluke :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
