    Sorry everyone, not took much notice of the offer on the wine.

    Can someone help, a friend is having a party and doing her own wine and prosecco, and has now asked for my help, as I told her there is an offer on.

    What do I need to do??

    Get me an invite :D

    If anyone still hasn't got their cashback items yet for TCB groceries today is the final day.

    I got
    twin packs of ginsters Cornish pasties for £1 - 5op cashback
    wonky potatoes £1 with 50p cashback

    The Heinz tom ketchup 460g is also £1.50 in Morrison with £1 cashback

    that's a cheap dinner sorted out :)
