I’m in the minority as I wouldn’t. I was left with terrible bruises from the normal one and wondered if it actually did more harm than good. I wouldn’t be prepared for anything extra…or at least not until the memory fades a bit. I do have a a bit of a doctor phobia at the best of times though, so maybe don’t listen to me 😁Not all who wander are lost - J.R.R.Tolkien

Morning happy Saturday ☀️
Thankfully summer made a reappearance yesterday and the weather looks lovely today. DS and the GKs are coming this afternoon so we’ll be able to sit in the garden. The dog will be happy because the GKs throw her ball and run about with her.Talking of the dog she loved the dog food sample from the Try It box. Looked up the brand and it’s one of these subscription ones and expensive. I’ve already tried two of the dog food subscriptions brands and after initially loving the food she went off both after a few days. One of them you had to store in the freezer which wasn’t very convenient.This morning’s plan is ClubFit shortly then I’m going to Wilko to see if I can find the storage baskets I want. I’m annoyed with myself because I bought some perfect ones a few weeks ago and just need a few more and I can’t remember where I got them from. I don’t go to that many shops so it shouldn’t be hard to narrow it down. They weren’t expensive so it’s got to be B&M, Wilko or the pound shop. B&M was ruled out yesterday.Tonight’s dinner is pizza, salad and Prosecco. Woo hoo 🥂I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)4 -

Could you take a picture of them and do a google image search? But if you only have two shops to check it might not be worth it, I don't think £land has an online shop anyway.01.12.2020 - CC £16,839 / Loan £18,820 / EF £0

I bought some ceramic bathroom trays in B&M the other week and when I went back for another, they had none left. Hoping they aren't gone for good.
I had a look and it seems Poundland does have an online presence so you might be in luck.I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)
