    There's not much available to pre-book on cineworld website :( well there's Star Wars in December but I've booked that already using the last of my Ts DVD vouchers and there's Justice League next weekend but my mate that I promised I'd go with with is busy :mad:

    I've booked Justice League for next weekend and I'm going to see if I can get the box office staff to swap for the next week when it's available to book, failing that I'll just give them away

    Now I'm bracing myself because it looks like I'm going to have to BUY 2 tickets in a fortnight at full whack! :eek:

    :cool:

    £24, £27 & £22,all got a similar response. :eek:

    I've got a £21 to run tomorrow, best to go to a store that you don't use on a regular basis.

    That £27 raised eyebrows, especially given the payment was 57p :rotfl:

    I tend to rabbit on when I'm nervous, couldn't stop myself from talking while waiting for the Supervisor :rotfl::rotfl:

    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    Hardly anyone in my new Cineworld tonight.
    I do hope it stays open as its fab.
    I have meerkat which I should use more often.

    A v T

    2x Cadbury Dairy Milk Chocolate Advent Calendar (90g) £4.00 £2.00
    2x Tango Orange Cans (6x330) £4.00 £3.18
    1x ASDA Extra Special Luxury Christmas Pudding (454g) £4.50 £4.00
    2x ASDA Smooth Orange Juice (1l) £2.30 £2.20

    30p TCB on advent calendars until Wednesday (buy only one though) - although T's offer only currently on until Tuesday (I would be buying very early tomorrow morning and checking the receipt in the morning as T bound to change its price online for the day after's delivery and make the APG go full price:(). Once again, I missed out as, the same as I did with the Haribo 190g, I bought my advent calendar the day before the TCB offer went on:(. In fact I bought at 10.10 at night - if only I'd waited another 1 hour 50 minutes:(. In future, I think I will not buy anything at all, until a CB offer comes on. Hopeless now as I don't need another calendar - would still cost me money - and 30p would be lost on travel to an A anyway, so, to save that, really I just need not visit A on one occasion when I might otherwise have done.

    Might you be able to upload the womble to TCB and get 30p for the calendar?

    As for Elite shops, T are usually the competitor (together with M on other items) that have some good offers on; however, I've checked earlier tonight - and found there is now virtually nothing worth buying against T, except for the A 3 for 2 items. The only item I felt worth comparing against T's pricing (T have virtually no good offers on at the moment IMO) is a couple of Steradent 30 denture tablets - however, even they require comparing against a T mbuy and therefore to be bought in 3s. Perhaps the A Strawberry Trifle 600g (though that's a tempter - spend more money buying that when you could have done without it at all) and Pagen Krisprolls, but, for me, having bought a pack already I don't now need any more. That's it - once the prices at the competitor reach £1, most of them are too expensive(:rotfl:).
