Copied Marmite's shop today - got £3.26 on a £3 spend.

Thought the rice might be nice, warmed, for a winter breakfast.

I still have issues over sweeteners but I will try a little honey in the yogs, see if that gets rid of the after-taste for me.

Will the corners work, does anyone know? tia. x

The corners should work but make sure that whoever you are targetting your shop against sells them..I would presume it will be Sainsbobs..so just check they are selling what you are looking to buy...Hope this helps...:D

Oh dear just been stashing the loo rolls and came across these.



They have been out of sight out of mind since I got my kitchen done and cleared out the old larder. :eek:

Just tried a chocolate one did they always taste like cardboard.

And just found out the bag is not full of specK underneath are a load of ice cream cones, could have been using them in the summer. :doh:

Found 6 tins of bombay spuds, they were rank when in date, dare not open a tin :rotfl:

bird food now so not a total waste

This is one of the reaons I've been decluttering, downsizing and re organising - so I have what I can use and pass along the excess bits

Chocolate contains theobromine which is poisonous to birds !

I know, it's a minefield, even the sd cards can be different ones, depending on the make. I'm running out of time before I leave:(

Is this your last big gift you have to focus on?
Mind you even when you just have one of 2 left to get its very hard to focus.

I am running around shops saying OMG this is so lovely - everything is gorgeous

The corners in Sains are 50p. Trigger + 9 corners would give £2.07 APG. Mix of 35p/50p ones, apg would be somewhere between £2.07 and £3.29.

Thank you - I will give those a go tomorrow

I was lucky today right place right time this morning. A new store was opening in town. "Yours"

Bit of a queue when I went into SD, bigger when I came out and saw the SA's walking to the doors with goodie bags.

Thought I would chance my luck so went to the end of the queue.

Free purse worth £8, a compact mirror/brush, trolley coin, nail file, pen and tote bag. And a £5 gift voucher. :j

It's a plus size store so no good for me but have in mind to use the voucher towards a present for someone. I must be getting old as it was too busy this morning I don't like all that hustle and bustle anymore.

Yours start from about a 12/14 , not saying you are that size , i long to be that size:rotfl::rotfl: well done on freebies:T:T

Can someone please tell me why I bought two of those Aldi carrot toys today:eek::eek:
Also noticed the price of the chocolate ones if anyone wants to know, £1.99.

:o:o Me too - I didn't have a bag as was going to a funeral so clutched Kevin & Katie by their hands - a lot bigger than I expected

Wondering if I could put out the SpecK for the birds? Feel really bad I got them and they never got eaten even though they were either free or from a Ts 342 glitch, I don't think I can face eating anymore. :eek:
As you know dates have never bothered me but this time think I am going to have to admit defeat.

:rotfl::rotfl: Yes it was that 3 for 1 deal many moons ago

Android pay

Firstly the £3 and £5 Marks e vouchers dont work in the cafe, its buried amongst the rules and regs page

They do work though in the food section and are very useful for buying meal deals.
I got the turkey roulade which will be our Christmas dinner - just 2 of us, the rosemary pots for when we do Christmas dinner all over again on the 27th, wine and coffee icecream.
On my sparks I have an opted in offer 20% off ice creams so our meal deal came to £4.60 :T

I'm hoping to get some clothes that don't fit, with mine, trusting the money will be refunded onto a gift card:)
Perhaps that's why they couldn't get it to work when dd1 & I tried to pay for our hot chocolates with them:o Got them free in the end as it took then ages to sort out.:)
