    I got a cheap piece of pork at weekend from lidl (one of their 30% off ). Just cut it into 4 and left in slow cooker for hours, turning pieces over every hour of so. It just fell apart into small chunks and was lovely

    curl girl I noticed you bought the tea bags from Lidl, what do you think of them ? thanks


    Thanks Izzey.
    I'll do a tea taste test in the morning and let you know.
    I've just found 2" of Southern Comfort, so thought I'd finish that off tonight, I love emptying a bottle and clearing cupboard space. :rotfl:

    Evenin' All

    I've just remembered I wombled this receipt thinking I could use it for Shoppix, Shopprize, Receipt Hog but it has a zero value.
    So do you reckon it's a staff receipt and they get free food
    or is there a way we could get free food
    What if we quoted 'ASK ME' (detailed on receipt?)
    APG is ending so I'm getting frantic for other ways of saving the cash

    The end is nigh

    Plonk any numbers in the dashes and you can buy big Mac n fries for £1.99.
    Then repeat if necessary.
    That's what I did on holiday.
