    They could have lasted a couple of months more!

    I've just eaten a bag of Kettle Bites dated Sept 17! :eek:

    My left over mince pies from last year are in the freezer! It looks like I've been rather decadent wasting all this freezer space on them ;-).

    That must be a record even for you:rotfl:

    I didn't realise they were already open too, just the 2 left. :eek:

    I reckon they were opened before last xmas. :o

    Well I am still here, I actually ate one yesterday. :rotfl:

    I did check it over and open it up to make sure there was nothing growing inside...it wasn't a pie when I had finished more like a crumble. ;)

  • I only got a nectar card this year so I'm a bit late to the party. With the 'double up' as I understand it you have to pick a category and you get a voucher. If, for example, I use it to buy some clothes and it turns out they don't fit....can you still get a refund even though you used the voucher, and in what form do you get the refund? :o

    Thanks!

    That's a good offer. However my cupboard is so full of tuna fillers that I'm not sure I'm going to need to buy any fish for a while ;).

    Mine is BB 28/10. I have somehow managed to stop any of it being consumed yet. I ought to try selling it back to A or maybe I can flog it onto someone else as it's apparently now worth twice the amount I paid for it:rotfl:.

    It's not just A that seems to have increased some of its prices to even higher prices - some products in M look like they have increased in price to me. Iceberg Lettuce is now 55p in M (according to my SEL and online) and the box of San Miguel has gone from £7 to £10! However, the San Miguel £7 offer was always a time-limited offer that was expected to end soon after it began and probably went back to £10 last week. I must resist - resist the urge to amend the prices on my list. That will be remaining the same. T now seems to be cheaper on Iceberg Lettuce, although they have gone down to 29p in the past a while ago. Meanwhile the best I can do today from M is an RTC of 75p on Cadbury Highlights Dark Chocolate 154g:wall:. Ignore anyway as it's chocolate and therefore prohibited!
