    Tenth Anniversary
    Evening peeps. :)

    Merry Xmas to everyone. :xmastree:

    I'm spending a nice quiet christmas with my babies. Kids have other invites and wife is going to her sisters.

    To get myself into the christmas spirit, I decided to open a pressie from my son early! I was gobsmacked!!

    Tastes bloody lovely. :D
  • I should imagine I shall be on at some point tomorrow, but just wanted to wish everyone a very merry Christmas, and I hope you all get all you desire out of Christmas whether that be family around or simple relaxation.

    Well that was a good start. We all went to Dbrother and he had no pressies for us. Apparently he said no pressie this year. We all thought he meant for his DD (my DN). Oh well I only spent pennies on Gftsets for him and his DW. lol .

    Yes they are £4 each in M. Are they on 3 for 2 now in A? Obviously not literally now, when they reopen on 26th:rotfl:. I ignore the Air Wicks at £4 and even £3 these days is no good due to one, at one stage, going onto 75p RTC in M. Makes everything look expensive every time afterwards. However, if they are 3 for 2 in A that may make a difference...

    I will add them onto the list, but only if I get any information that they are 3 for 2.

    The Alfa One Rice Bran Oil is RTC in M and has been RTC for several months but seems to be the one product that is sticking around in nearly all places I see. No surprise that it is now "still" working (I assume it would have been working for a while already). I have probably already indicated on the list that it is the one item in its section that was expected to work.

    As I never post on Christmas Day ever, as I don't do anything on that day that seems like any task at all (it's a bit like shopping online on Christmas Day - why would you do that?) and I don't do much at all on that day, may I wish all a Merry Christmas.

    Merry Christmas!

    Someone can find somewhere where I have posted on Christmas Day now:rotfl:.

    In that case,
    £21 - (£12*90%)= £10.20 APG

    Pay £21 - £10.20 = £10.80 = £3.60 each, fillers ignored.

    Straight (no good:rotfl:) 10% if that's the case, and no need to go to the expense of buying in triplicate:eek::eek:. If they are not 3 for 2, they are not getting to the list:p! Back to my original position on them - seen them at £4 in M, no good, move on, ignore:rotfl::cool:.
