Elite 11+ shopping and chat thread part 2½

Sad_Dad

Evening All,

I spent my last APGs yesterday on my normal shopping. Thinking it would probably be my last visit there for a long time, I wandered around thinking about all the glitches from the past.
I even went down the gluten free aisle to see if they still sold UDIs. Anyway I've just checked my receipt for old times sake not expecting anything but it has generated a £6 APG so looks like I will be going back after all.

You probably already know this but the interesting one for me was the 2 large packs of M&Ms (Sweet Sundays packet), it works out at £1.80 for a free cinema ticket.

2x Branston Baked Beans in Tomato Sauce (4x410g) £4.00 £3.50
2x KTC Red Kidney Beans in Water (400g) £0.90 N/A
4x Pot Noodle Chicken & Mushroom (90g) £2.00 £2.00
1x Muller Light Fat Free Greek Style Strawberry Yogurts (4x120g) £1.00 £1.00
1x Chopped Tomatoes in Tomato Juice (400g) £0.35 £0.35
1x Activia Intensely Creamy Greek Style Raspberry Yogurts (4x110g) £1.00 £1.80
1x Beck's Lager (20x275) £10.00 N/A
2x M&M's Chocolate Large Bag (238g) £3.00 £2.00
1x Muller Light Fat Free Greek Style Raspberry Yogurts (4x120g) £1.00 £1.00
1x KTC Chopped Tomatoes in Tomato Juice (400g) £0.39 £0.38
1x Butcher's Selection Reduced Fat Beef Mince (Typically Less Than 12% Fat) (750g) £3.34 N/A
3x M&M's Peanut Chocolate Bag (140g) £3.00 £3.00
2x Galaxy Minstrels Bag (118g) £2.00 £2.00
4x Schwartz Sausage Casserole Recipe Mix (35g) £2.00 N/A
1x Cathedral City Mature Cheddar Cheese Twin Pack (2x350g) £4.50 £4.00
2x Sweet Popcorn (165g) £3.00 N/A
1x Grower's Selection Carrots (500g) £0.35 £0.36
1x Sweet BBQ Rack of Pork Ribs (600g) £3.34 N/A
1x Frozen for Freshness British Garden Peas (1.8kg) £1.89 N/A
1x Extra Special Chorizo Casero (225g) £1.85 N/A
1x Extra Special British Jazzy Potatoes (1kg) £1.00 N/A
1x Smart Price Batter Mix (128g) £0.25 N/A
1x Heinz Cream of Tomato Soup (4x400g) £2.00 N/A
1x Activia Intensely Creamy Greek Style Cherry Yogurts (4x110g) £1.00 £1.80
1x Glen Moray Single Malt Scotch Whisky (70cl) £20.00 £18.00
1x Albert Bartlett Rooster Potatoes (2kg) £2.00 £2.50
2x Homepride Pasta Bake Creamy Tuna (485g) £2.00 £2.00
1x Farm Stores Brown Onions (1kg) £0.65 £0.68
1x Extra Special 10 Pork Sausages (750g) £3.32 N/A
1x Cadbury Heroes Chocolate Tub (660g) £4.00 £5.00
1x Grower's Selection Broccoli (360g) £0.58 £0.60
2x Kellogg's Crunchy Nut Corn Flakes (750g) £4.00 N/A

This AvM by the way.

wondering why someone needs 30 tomatoes - bound to be someone of Freecycle, Olio or Streetlife drowning in tomatoes

Looking at the rest of the reciept, they must be having some kind of party! It must be a her as she wants to get her legs nice and smooth! Unless it's a him and he's doing his chest. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Anyway, Todays total APG's is £28.56 from 9 reciepts!!! God, I'm gonna miss it when it finishes.

Thank you! That is a cracking price on the M&Ms 238g pack - it looks like they have put the price of the smaller pack in error . Glitch!

Elite at the ready for tomorrow :cool:.

Wow, I hope it is a glitch, I might be going out in style. I've only ever found a few in all my time doing this.

How are the family you're sharing it with doing? I bet its made such a difference to their summer.
You need a walnut tree. I must have 100 plus walnuts this year I don't know what I'm going to do with them all, they would be great for your baking.
I may ask Bargainqueen about making a walnut liqueur. She makes the nicest limoncelo I have ever tasted.

Dd is doing ok thank you she said she feels like she's been hit by a bus. The doctor said she has concusion and pooling of b###d around her eye and at the side of her head. Her boss is a complete fool though and shows absolutely know sign that he thinks its anything to do with his pub however he was cleaning the floors when she called on Thursday with a sick note. He was shocked that she wasn't going in this weekend but I wouldn't stand behind a bar with a black eye either.

Bubbs I've messaged you about Ocado save you reading back braveheart posted a discount code the other day.

Don't walnut trees take ages and ages to grow:eek:
Will I live long enough?:eek::rotfl:

The allotment sharing is working out really well. Their little one is adorable and he melts my heart every time I see him. I'm sure he thinks I'm his age as we have lots of fun playing hide and seek. He thinks Mr TM is my dad and to be honest I'm just going along with it.:rotfl:

He has grown some radishes and sings to them every time he visits:rotfl:

We won't see much of an improvement until next year I guess.

The Japanese onions are going in this week:)

If anyone sees them reduced in Wilco will you shout please. I'm always happy to put in extra especially now as I won't be buying them as fillers

Welcome Lisa:T:T:T

Well my legs have toothache. This is the first time I've sat down today.

Everything is cooked and packed away for our coffee morning tomorrow. All did not go well.

I've never used Betty Crocker icing before but got some when they were glitching. I don't like it. I used the vanilla one. It's far too sweet, not buttery enough and has an awful after taste.

I used cornflour instead of baking powder so didn't get the rise I wanted:o

Finally the cake cases I thought were muffin cases turned out to be little one so I had to venture out for more.

Anyway these are the leftover rasp and white chocolate ones. Help yourself:)
Somebody put the kettle on:)

Just checking todays AvS
They only had the conditioner 90ml so had to get 3 of them (used 1 x £1.50 SSM coupon - not able to get more than 1 coupon of a type via SSM)
The Fizzy Strawberry wands still work as a trigger (don't show on APG) in the 5 for £1 with curly wurly.
and my coupons went through without having to call supervisor on a manned till. The SA just checked I'd got the products (also used my Febreze £1 off SSM coupon) and entered them as Manufacturers coupons.
This gave me a £4.55 return

1x Galaxy Smooth Milk Chocolate Bar 4 Pack (4x42g) £2.00 £1.00
1x ASDA Spaghetti in Tomato Sauce (210g) £0.29 £0.26
3x Aussie Miracle Moist Conditioner For Dry,Really Thirsty Hair (90ml) £6.60 £4.50
0.14x ASDA Grower's Selection Loose Banana (order by number of bananas or select kg) (per kg) £0.11 N/A
4x Cadbury Curly Wurly Bar (26g) £1.40 £1.00
1x ASDA Grower's Selection Cucumber (each) £0.55 £0.50
1x ASDA Smart Price Chopped Tomatoes in Tomato Juice (400g) £0.29 £0.30
1x ASDA Smart Price Sliced Carrots in Water (300g) £0.20 £0.20
1x Febreze Air Freshener Spray Cotton Fresh (300ml) £2.00 £2.00

inidentally I used my Bold 3 in 1 £2 SSM coupon in the following transaction off the 16 pod tub which was half price at £3. I mentioned the deal yesterday but I misinformed and said it was a 38 pod tub.
Who on earth would pay the full £6 for 16 pods. I wouldn't even want to pay £3 but now APG is ending is that what I'll have to start doing!

Thank you

You wont believe this but mum tries with the staff I have heard them really shout at her because she wont listen. Thursday senior had another carer in room and I was there and she really told mum raised her voice. It was about not listening and having stuff in her room she didn't need.

When she asked why mum had say all shopping bags mum replied when my son takes me shopping . He never takes her shopping I used to do it. Still doing it

Better get ready go and see what I done wrong since yesterday if anything.

See you laters :hello:

Hi tweets,

Are staff ok with your mam? They aren't shouting AT her are they? I know it's tricky when people are hard of hearing and sometimes you have to talk in a loud voice. Just wondering
