    Sainsburys last night OH got a Minions calender for his office for 50p. I've been also looking at the diaries waiting for them to go down in price - I like one just for the desk. I seem to think its later that they fully get reduced but I saw one in the Home section with a rose gold cover - half price SEL so still £3 but I thought that would do.
    It went through for £1.50 :j

    On the reduced stand I noticed a SEL for RTC twiglet tubs and by scrabbling at the back I found 3 tubs which went through for 20p each! These are going to be perfect for Eldest childs birthday badh which has a 198Os theme .

    MY Sainsburys is vast but sadly no Moma yogurt or weird botanic plantmilks for COS and no melon or cactus water for shopimum :(

    Apologies for the quick post above, just wanted to mention J2O no longer on S website. And while I was looking at it yesterday, spotted that MS thinks that Zeo is 29p in Poundstretcher in case that helps anyone.

    Used up my last big APG £20+ from pre Christmas today. Supervisor said to the cashier that it was because of the 342 before Christmas, someone had been telling her about it the other day. :D

    Also Shopimum - OHs account weirdly has a pack of free Mikado on his account but its not appeared on mine :(

    My account - 2 people have used my ref code from the appropriate thread, they have registered but thats as far as they have got. So I've still got £8 pending ...

    And I keep forgetting to check if my A has any of the Whitworth's Christmas cake kits left. M had them as originally £10 reduced to £5 but my A said they had been £4 reduced to £2. I bought two at that price but had been hoping they would go down further. I bet they have all gone now. :(

    If anyone sees any packs of chocolate coins or those Christmas little chocs in a net reduced a lot, please do say as I need them... Thank you.

    I had a dessert too:o:D

    How are you today AJ?:A

    Now that’s just gluttonous :p

    Not too bad backache from moving lounge furniture, I’m in the dog house as I decided it all had to be moved back :eek: but hey, I’ve got a great idea where the two large bookcases could go :D

    Pleased you enjoyed your meal out, even though it was accompanied by a Diet Coke, that’s the way to do it :)
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Was someone asking some time ago if you can use your M £5 vouchers on gift cards? Yes you can. I bought a few for work the other day and then bought bananas this morning. No less than 7 vouchers popped out and I was able to use them towards the next £50 gift card which I most prudently did in a second transaction. Remember you need to buy gift cards at the staffed tills.

    In case anyone has missed this, buy certain £50 gift cards from Morrisons and as well as their normal offer (25 More points per £1 spent on gift cards) they are giving you 5000 More points as a bonus. This doesn't work on multiples up to £50 (eg £30 and £20) as it has to be a £50 gift card. I bought the Amazon ones but the others are App store, John Lewis, Curry's/PC World, Halfords, The Restaurant Choice, M&S and Debenhams. This works out as £6.50 back for every £50 gift card. A voucher pops out when you do your next shop.

    Did anyone watch Eastenders last night?

    I wonder why they didn't go down the organ donation route?

    Anyway - it was touching :A

    It was mentioned a few nights ago by the nurse I think butdidnt hear any more. BBC missed a chance there I feel and yes it was very touching :A
    Good morning lovely peoples :wave:

    Hope everyone is well :A

    Upon the [STRIKE]orders[/STRIKE] advice of our lovely TM :A I have made baklava for the kiddies train journey to keep them warm.

    I’ve had some disappointing news :(
    I was hoping to escape from the clutches of Dr Doom and have my NHS cancer care taken over by another Oncologist at a different NHS hospital. But I have been declined! How to make a man feel wanted lol :o

    JTS lovely to see you. Sorry you were declined though. Did they give a reason? xx

    Afternoon :)

    Does this mean they will stop comparing immediately or will shops today be ok?

    Also, are there now 2 triggers for the crisps (not managed to find any tom k ones).

    Thanks xx

    When I used my 19.99 one, I had to have supervisor.

    SA said 'She's got a 19.99 one here,' and the lady's initial response was 'Well that's way out of date.' :)

    It went through no problem with lots of laughs about that.
