Morning All
Had a sudden thought yesterday and realised the posting of comparison shops has ended
Was interesting to see what others bought!0 -
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:

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. Birds flying high, You know how I feel, Sun in the sky, You know how I feel,

Happy with the boxes of Lil-let liners though, 25p for 20. There are 4 liners in a handy pouch for your handbag. :TBirds flying high, You know how I feel, Sun in the sky, You know how I feel,

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. Birds flying high, You know how I feel, Sun in the sky, You know how I feel,

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:Birds flying high, You know how I feel, Sun in the sky, You know how I feel,

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:Birds flying high, You know how I feel, Sun in the sky, You know how I feel,

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 xxThere's no place like home
Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.
Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.0 -

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. Birds flying high, You know how I feel, Sun in the sky, You know how I feel,
