    I’m a follower but have to say I’m not very impressed so far. Only know 3 of the women in there :eek:

    Ann Widdicome, Maggie the ex police woman of Rochester grooming case and 82 year old Amanda Barrie ex Coronation Street or should that be Barry, oh well, I’m sure some of you know who I mean :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Good evening Elite :santa2:


    My totals in signature need updating, considering they consist of freebies I’ve not done too bad getting the numbers down. I didn’t do pamper Hampers this year but did Christmas Socks instead. Bought 2 pairs of girlie socks stuffed one in the toe of each them stuffed them with free sachets of face creams, body lotions, shampoo and conditioners and phials and mini bottles of fragrances. The girls loved them. So I have started my freebie hunt again fir next Christmas :rotfl:


    evening :j altojack

    i make gift for my family and i love the sound of the socks :T and i love the sound of the freebie hunt :rotfl: do tell me more thanks

    :(broke my back doing glitching :eek:

    Hello! Fwiw, SP Chocolate Mousse is currently not comparing against M (M should be 50p, in other words much higher than A). Not very good as this is already N/A against everywhere else but could be a filler against M. This may change on another day. This is not money saving but is merely tempting you to include it on your shop if you are shopping against M. So, ignore it!:cool: Anyway, you might not be able to do a good shop vs M - my list has fallen behind and I am yet to catch up with 27th December. I just put it aside and felt like wanting to have a rest on several consecutive days. I added a small number of items yesterday but then got bored of it. I tried to start again today but started with the packs of Border Biscuits at M at £1 and thought "what's the point, as there are so much better prices on biscuits at the moment". And I won't be able to go to M tomorrow anyway, as I have too much else going on at the moment.

    I have given myself another week to get to the out-of-date information for 27th December but I won't be adding anything that has already expired by the time I reach it. I am now due to be at M on 10th January - but that may get pushed back a further week or to the week after that. It's therefore a case of see if there is an expiry date to see if the offer has expired or may have carried over and ones that don't have expiry dates on the list could have expired. Fwiw, I saw the 4 pack Chicken & Mushroom pot noodles at £2 in M last weekend but don't know whether they will still be £2 in M tomorrow (price check day). I am not much use:rotfl:. If you are, or have been, thinking where I am, I am just taking some time away from things:cool:.
