Hi Bob, M0rris0ns do a scheme where you can't select to have your online food shopping without bags but instead if you collect your bags and keep them safe then when you next have a shop just hand them back to the driver and they deduct the money from your new shop.Debt Free Stage 1 - Completed 27/08/2020

Yesterday I had a small womble of four eggs from the girls, which I'm keeping for our use = 40p, but I did sell a dozen, for which I'm claiming £2.
Lots of people asking about my yummy eggs, but with the DEFRA ruling over the current bird flu scare, my ladies are inside, so production has dropped

I saved £19.02 on my Tesco online grocery shop through various offers and price reductions

I got a 50p Brand Match refund on the same shop
I got a £2 e-coupon to use on my next shop as a goodwill gesture from Tesco as last week I handed back a wholemeal bread that had been substituted for the Finest wholemeal I had ordered and did not receive the 50p refund, so I gained £1.50
