  • I haven't done the wine. We have so many bottles in the winedrobe that there is no way I can actually justify buying any. Our 64 bottle wine rack is full, and it is surrounded by quite a few boxes of bottles of wine too.

    Our problem is that we only drink half a bottle a week :eek:

    It'll go off if you drink it that slowly :eek:

    If I open it, I finish it :D

    A lot of it is home made, just gets better and better :D

    The main problem is the strawberry wine. We thought it had finished fermenting, left it for quite a few weeks after that, but it is very bubbly, it can only be opened outsidd :rotfl::rotfl:

    It's helping that the crisps have gone to full price in A - even if they don't get the former trigger, they now have full prices against usually offers elsewhere or sometimes even vs full price doesn't lose too much or certainly doesn't lose as much as it did when the comparisons were from £1 mbuy price. People seem to have got into a habit of buying three in A and, even now some of the products are full price, they are still buying three:rotfl:. I've had a couple of receipts where they have done that, despite the receipt giving no mbuy deduction - are we sure that the SELs are not still showing the offer (that is no longer on some of these items)?:think:
