    The problem with Tiger bread is that is so squishy, when you cut into it, it squashes into tiny little compressed sandwiches:o

    Well for the trip on my account I put hanging with friends but when I booked a trip on DH’s account I used my phone and it didn’t give me the option :o

    Wonder how many kids on the train Monday morning, do you think I’ll need 2 jars of peanut butter :D

    AP - £5, £3 and free Coke mands vouchers worked fine together today. I bought a boxed curry £9 and a Coke Zero for £1 :).

    Is it just me, though, that is still loathe to buy full priced overpriced items even though they are near free with the vouchers/giftcards? :o

    Not if you use an electric carving knife :). It’s my secret weapon when making lots of sandwiches too.
