Morning All

Had a sudden thought yesterday and realised the posting of comparison shops has ended
Was interesting to see what others bought!

Tinyshoes

Picked my loo rolls up this morning, I need not have worried.

Tiny rolls for Tinyshoes. :eek: They had already black bagged them for me...:rotfl:

Tinyshoes

Here is the comparison compared to the Andrex we are using at the moment. :eek:



And look at the difference in the size of the holes



Mr TS says I need to do the sums, ie sheets per roll multiplied by the ply. :rotfl:

Will do a test later and report back but I am thinking these were not as good a buy as I thought.

Tinyshoes

Happy with the boxes of Lil-let liners though, 25p for 20. There are 4 liners in a handy pouch for your handbag. :T

I suspect the one in Stockport will be on the chopping list, which is a shame as the M&S closed there recently.

For months there have been more staff around in there than customers

.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Bournemouth one was too, M&S has already gone. And Debs is such an old building that hasn't really been updated. The menswear dept has already been separated off and become a pizza place.

It's always seems such a mess, too cluttered, nothing displayed well. I have had some really good buys from Debs in the past but from online orders I'm afraid. I can never find what I am looking for in store.

I used to love the M&S over there as it was nicely laid out and lots of space it was a pleasure to browse but it just didn't get the footfall.

Yes I call it the jumble sale:rotfl:

Right I'm out the door .......another strange man is honking outside:o

I've not been to the jumble sale yet today.

I was worried on the drive to town this morning there was this rattling sound in the car I couldn't place. :eek: It's only all the little bottles of salad dressing and sweet chilli sauce.

Good job the loo rolls were not very big I still have the RTC Kids Honest drinks in the boot too. :rotfl:

Bold gel 24 wash, 3 flavours at £2.50 each just over the 10p per wash I aim for. :money:

I have done an online order for C&C, now how to get them home from town they are a bit heavier than the loo rolls. :rotfl:

Good morning Elite :hello:

So cold this morning but the sun is glorious through the windows :cool:

:santa2: Enterprise, I don't envy you out in the cold working on the flats :eek: wrap up, thermals on

Talking of thermals, north and north east could be getting snow this weekend, temperature dropping as of tomorrow if you belief the met office :cool:

I've got my thermals at the ready incase they are needed down here. They were just cheap from a QD shop, not nation wide but several of them. Anyway, bought for my Norway cruise a few years back. Long johns for men which are just as good as ladies thermal long johns and a mans thermal vest. Shhhh, he doesn't know :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: I wouldn't be without them now in winter.

I'm going to miss Debs if they close the one in Ipswich. I do still shop there but not as much as I used to. I'm old school in a way as I like to feel the goods before I buy. I want some more Egyptian cotton sheets but the need to feel and see the quality is a must. Also want 2 more duvet sets, notice the want and not need :eek: I want a burgundy coloured one and a dark green.

Off to catch-up on recordings from last night, see if I can stay awake today and not nod off

Hugs to Elite poorly and special thoughts to those feeling low in body and mind. I think of you every day xx

DD1 has one of these for walking into town, I think I should ask for one for xmas.

I've seen them in my local Beales and they do have some fancy styles.
