    Princes Fruit coupon is working again and now has new date of 31/3/18.
    Last coupons had date 30/11/17, at least mine did, before it said finished.
    Any yopmail address works.

    Shame you have to print a whole page.

    afternoon all

    OH sorted out someones misbehaving laptop so he was given a Tetley tea tin as a thank you - these are navy blue with stars and fireworks on them, very pretty.

    I know a few of us ate obsessed with tins :)

    Just seen them in Sainsburys for £2.30 so a good normal price - ideal if you are doing a little gift for someone who does not like fussy showy gifts - Tetley tea tin, posh biscuits, nice tea cups or mugs ec

    My mum has just opened her second box of these, she reckons they are one of the nicest she has tried and only £1.99

    Your mum is very naughty - opening the Christmas chocs before Christmas :rotfl:

    Everything looks gorgeous in Aldi - the fudge in little boxes and the Italian nougat bars they look so posh - Oh was slightly gobsmacked last year but I didnt let on they were just Aldi

    With the discussion earlier about the further promotion after double up I thought I'd better go and do mine.

    Initially I was looking for leggings as I have leggings crisis.
    My Marks ones have developed a hole along the seam about mid thigh level which is at least a quick sewing job for now.
    But Marks dont seem to do the same ones now with the very wide waistbands anymore - really wanted other colours as well.
    So I had a look at the Sainsburys ones - even my Sainsburys one has a tiny hole - but weirdly they only had small sizes.

    But I did find 2 dresses I liked. Tu seem to have this standard shift shape dress which they keep churning out in different patterns and fabrics, good length on the knee and a bit of elastic in them and they suit my curves so for £22 you cant go wrong, even better for £11 on double up.

    This is one of the dresses I got (the other I cant see a pic of on the website) .
    https://tuclothing.sainsburys.co.uk/p/Floral-Print-Ponte-Shift-Dress/132738197-MultiColoured?searchTerm=:price-desc&searchProduct=

    So I realised I had a conditional spend in my wallet still in date for £6 off a £40 shop so I got two sets of cat food in gravy at £2.50 to make the total up to £49 - £40 off double up voucher and £6 cond.spend so in real money the cat food only cost me £3 :)

    They have some very wearable things at the moment.
    There was also a navy blue cable knit dress which I am thinking about
    - it would only last one winter before getting tired and bobbly but even so it looked good. I am thinking that it would go fine with the Marks knee length free vests we got a while back :)
    And navy leggings if I can find them so I might go again tommorow :)

    I seem to recall people saying they did last year - I know the year before I got a Tassimo (first time ever to spend points) - I spent 4000 and was refunded 2000 a while later.

    Haven't they done this a couple of times? I'm sure the mrs has got reward points twice now and I've never got anything even though all account communication preferences are set the same and the cards are used equally


    Thought so, thanks. Doubled up for the TTD wine so we will see :D

    The navy dress mhoc, if it’s long enough couldn’t you wear with thick tights and boots? I’m after a couple of wintry dresses to wear with boots so I’ll go back and have another look :)
