I am convinced mine said try for half price yesterday but today its totally free :T - pity its not closer to Christmas as this would be perfect for the Christmas guests. I wonder how long the use by dates are, probably quite short

I got 2 today. Didnt look at the use by date when in T's I was just so pleased I found them lol. But just looked and the date is 17/12

Throw the date away. It's cheese if it is kept right you can eat it for yonks.

It'll still taste horrible since it's cheese but it will tatse like cheese.

OK, that's useful so ideally if its still on the app in a week or 10 days time then the expiry dates might be the other side of Christmas

Its all in the timing - I've got a house full for about 2 days just after Christmas so I've got to wine and dine them with the finest and ideally in date cashback items

Errant son is not back until early January so I cant rely on him to hoover the left over contents of the fridge up and he seems to have an odd revulsion about eating OOD stuff - no idea where he got this aversion, it wasn't from me

I also haven't bothered getting any of the b&h sets for the same reason, can't be bothered with the trouting rather keep just under the radar lol x

We went to Wigan, dh works there so I drove and met him, showing was 6pm so perfect timing.

No idea why Preston showing was cancelled but do think we should have been informed by email. Fortunately we hadn't travelled far to the cinema

Only managed two today, for some reason it stopped working and had to pay cash. It was clarified later..... a telephone call from bank about unusual activity on my card, loads of 10p shops. :eek:
My flump army had turned on me, been re-assured it is now ok, a bit of a stumbling conversation explaining why I was buying 10p items every one minute :o

I hope your Sis got on Ok bubbs
