    Have you got them yet E?


    Not your local, I going there at 2pm. DH rang me this morning and said Ts have rung me about pork joints! He will have nearly fainted because he hates anything to do with a glitch :rotfl: anyway could I ring them.
    So I did......hello Diluvsdiscounts I'm so sorry we haven't got any of the pork you ordered and as you'd ordered quite a lot I thought I'd better just check before I make any substitutions......Oh ok........we have got pork loin or shoulder of pork in the chilled if you would like either of those.......would they be £2 a kilo too?.........of course we price match.......Oh well I'll have pork loin then please (obviously!)
    Watch this space :rotfl:
    Pandoraskids get your order in :j

    No I ordered them for tomorrow morning

    Ah, well I've just collected mine and I got leg of pork from the chiller don't know what happened to the pork loins, probably when the price match would have been about £60 they looked for alternative options. The price match was still £28 :j
    Thanks Bubbs x

    Afternoon Malc don't worry about being late you have more worrying things on your mind :(

    I will be visiting my mum tomorrow she rang last night and tried to make me :( thought she hadn't til I tried sleep and hardly slept.


    I tell you what think you need all MSE give you a hug so here's another :grouphug:

    I have also put the kettle on so :coffee: will be brewed when I have caught up on here :)

    How's Helena's little doggy getting on ?


    Hiya tweets and thanks for the :coffee: and the :grouphug:. Both very welcome.

    Hope your mum's okay. I know where you're coming from. My own mum isn't too good at the moment and it preys on your mind. Try not to worry too much; I know you're doing the best you can for her.

    I think Helena's doggy, Frank, is doing okay. :) She's in tomorrow. I'll ask her to pop on and let you know.

    Hope you have a better nights sleep tonight.

    Just been shopping.
    Cupcakes are yummy, more so when free. Got them and then went and used a couple of my free saved up loyalty drinks at Nerd.
    Split my shop using MySupermarket to check prices. Went To Sains and Sada. Got a till spit from Sains for £18 off £60 for 1st order.

    On another account received MOCs through post.


    Have now used GooglePay to put on all my loyalty cards I can. Trying to start being semi normal now, shopping less frequently and being extra careful about shopping and keeping a good eye on prices and will have to keep an eye on my wee stockpiles from the good old APG days, and buy when things are cheap enough.


    Oh, got a few of the Prince's tuna from Sains and Sada no problem.


    Some good from APG discontinuing, less mileage on car, more time for other moneysaving (apps, coupons), maybe start entering competitions again. Have less clutter from my stockpiles of bog roll etc.

    Going to start a spreadsheet with my savings through apps etc. Today would be cupcakes x 2 (how much were they? £1.50 each?) £3.00, free earned coughees from Nerd £4.60, 6 x tuna (3 Sada £3.60, 3 Sains £3.00) £6.60. So today £14.20.



    My sainsbob receipt (I didn't scan a nectar card) £35 spend , earned points 35. There is Bonus Points 126. Does anyone know what this is for, also how long do I have to add points from the receipt to my card?


    ****Just read, 10 x nectar points on household until 9 Oct, that's where it came from ***

    I am confused Di! I thought that you were getting your pork from t and not a.
    If you got them from a, what did it compare against? Was it the 3 4 £10 ones? tia
