    There is a map underneath which says where your nearest Sainsburys stockist is - I think its only the massive ginormous megastores.

    For me its just Cheadle and Stockport - rather a long way to go for a dip :D


    At first I thought the map wasn't working....then I realised I hadn't zoomed out far enough. Apparently my nearest dip is 113 miles away!!

    slightly too far to go on your bike!

    I was going to say slow cookers might be something worth getting but then I noticed that they have a good selection now already in the sale stating from £15 - not sure if these will still be around when double up starts.
    I suppose you could hedge your bets and get one now but then not use it yet.
    Then if they are still available when double up comes along buy again and return the originals.

    These would actually make good gifts - OMG I've said the X word.

    I am still pondering a soup maker - but I really need to downsize the kitchen gadgetry before I can contemplate something else.

    Got my last slow cooker in T for £3.75, have all the gadgets I need too :( I do love my soup maker, but I have a spare one of those too. Of course, they have audio visual stuff too, worth a thought.

    I'd be tempted on a day like today, it's glorious out there :D.


    Sadly I think I'm expected to stay in the office today.

    Just had a look on Len the small tablet in search of the Shopotizes email OH got for an Amazon e voucher applied for last week and I noticed another Shopotize email unopened which was odd so I forwarded that email as well plus the next one just incase.
    All three codes applied - so £15 extra in the Amazon account :j

    The 2 others had November 2017 dates on them - most peculiar. The only thing I can think of was that the emails arrived while we were on holiday and then OH didn't notice them or assumed he'd already sent them to me when we got back ...
