I have just received my first CashBack cheque from my mobiles co uk vodafone contract, so the net £6.50 contract is all good :-)

I went to T yesterday and got 4 bags of crisps, worked on the chicken ones without issue, I had assumed it was only the 3 flavours in the picture, but it doesn't actually say that on the coupon. Unfortunately I also got another 6 magazines, wish I could stop the compulsive grabbing lol. I probably won't be able use them all, is there a give-away thread on MSE?

Next time you are in Mr T get crisps and then pop them straight into the food bank trolley

Good afternoon everyone, I am in dire need of help, I have taken on the task of organising a tour of Srilanka next year for a few friends but know nothing about it. Having dismissed (wrongly) package deals, I have spent days trying to find places to go and decent hotels that dont cost the earth.Unfortunately I have now discovered package deals are so much cheaper and the hotels included are far superior.I have already booked the flights so there is no going back on this tour now, but it is a case of the blind leading the blind. So, if anybody has been there, done that etc, please please tell me where we should go that is of interest and any hotels you can recommend. Thanks a million if anyone can make any suggestions.

We went to Sri Lanka back in 1999, 28 of us to a friend's wedding, and it was a package. The journey from the airport was horrendous as we had to cross Colombo and the traffic was a nightmare. Apparently the hotel was only about 35 miles away from the airport but the journey took 3h20 mins

The hotel was AI and was very good, but was not close to anywhere outside, nearest town was around 35 mins away by minibus taxi. Worth bearing in mind location of hotels.

A trip to the Elephant Orphanage is a must. Very early start at 6.00 am but is was well worth it. That was the highlight of the holiday. Couple of other trips out but nothing very memorable.

It was such a shame as the day my friend got married, it rained for 24 hours solid. After the ceremony they were to ride off into the sunset on Monica, the hotel elephant which got bathed and dressed and accordingly for wedding ceremonies, but it just couldn't happen.

Anyone with a winter holiday to look forward to, in Tesco Express this morning they were selling Nivea 200 ml bottles Factor 15, F.30 and F.50 at £1.15. Also some Ambre Solaire but not quite as cheap. Cans of Jungle Formula £1.75.

Afternoon mad squad, not been on much lately, just the very occasional bit of lurking. Should’ve mentioned it yesterday but better late than never, 12 pack of Andrex - the normal blue pack - was RTC in mrT rvrside DD yesterday at £2.98, sorry don’t have BC as I’m out of house at mo. Thanks to OP of crisp coupon, best coupon I’ve had for a while. Take care all. Peace and Love. Xx

Still picking up more coupons than I am using. Workmates getting a handout methinks.

Sorry not done a catch up. The Walkers crisps coupon scans fine in the Metro store and it doesn't say it is excluded on the coupon.

I have also read elsewhere that it works fine in Tesco Express, but you have to pay 9p as they are £1.59

Oooh that would be great. Thats if my local T ex has them. Could get one lot a day when walking Tessa

Yup. Tried every version and all good. As i started, the voucher only states walkers baked, no specific type.

In my store I wasn't allowed the variety one as the picture wasn't shown
