    Back from hols, feels so damned cold!

    Fleece on, heating on and, of course, washer on!

    Been on a shopping trip, used 2 x £20+ APGs - no bother - bought the grumpy one a bottle of posh(ish) whisky as it's our [STRIKE]welding [/STRIKE] oops, wedding anniversary and now have another £14.46 apg to use :j

    9 items (8 different) on your receipt qualify for comparison Asda Tesco
    1x Cathedral City Mature Cheddar Cheese (350g) £3.50 £2.50
    1x Monkey Shoulder Blended Malt Scotch Whisky (70cl) £27.00 £22.00

    Haven't really caught up, and I doubt I will, but did notice comments about the pork, so a quick visit to T's. 2 pieces of the pork on the butcher's counter, chatted to butcher and I said I'd have both, " 'cos that's a good price, isn't it?" She agreed , but said not only were they the last 2 pieces in the shop she couldn't order any more even though the offer hadn't finished there was none to be had.:(

    MSE article on Tesco recycling plastic bottles here.

    The bottles have to be 750ml or less and have to be big brands or Tesco own make, not other supermarket brands.
