    Early finish for me today as I'm going out for tea....must tell you about our new vinegar bottle though.

    Mr TM has vinegar on just about everything:eek:

    So while we were away I decided to treat myself to a new vinegar bottle to keep out on the shelf.

    I used it yesterday and although I didn't look too closely,there were bits in it which I thought were that mother of vinegar stuff......you know....that stuff aau's always harping on about:rotfl:

    Anyway I went to use it today and it's full of flies floating around in the vinegar_pale__pale__pale_

    Wait until I tell him:rotfl:

    I make a fruit fly trap for the kitchen, vinegar and a bit of fruit in a jar, topped off with a paper cone so they can't fly out.

    What a brilliant idea. :)

    Another mystery solved.
    At the weekend I was with eldest sons GF in Holland Barret as she was trying to buy zinc tablets - absolute nightmare with the different strengths, different sizes etc.
    Finally she settled on these for £5.49

    Holland & Barrett High Strength Chelated Zinc with Copper 60 Tablets 15mg £5.49

    She didn't have a Holland Barret rewards for life card so the girl took my postcode - you don't actually need a physical plastic card, your postcode is enough.

    I've just looked a the receipt and there is a £2.50 points bonus for a £5.49 spend so I looked online and that's exactly it.
    So now I am now wonderinh what else has bonus points

    Definitely good stocking fillers, think they might be a bit big for crackers though, set in it's packaging is quite big, remember seeing them in DDs SD in Surrey few weeks back. I didn't bother with them then but 2 for that price I couldn't resist. :o

    Thanks all! :)

    I make a fruit fly trap for the kitchen, vinegar and a bit of fruit in a jar, topped off with a paper cone so they can't fly out.

    I do that too. Apple cider vinegar with a chunk of fruit in it.

    Are they little tiny flies?

    Will someone please stop me doing my Christmas shopping? I just seem to have ordered 4 lots of the SD dry shampoo TM mentioned yesterday :eek:
