    Lidl usually have an organiser out this time of year for about £5 - Filofax type of thing with next years pages ready to go , I buy one for mum every other year 
    The Works website shows me it has just what I want in my price range :)

    Eta: I ended up with an A4 sized diary in the end - reduced by 25% to £3. I plan to make very good use of it this year!

    Can’t see the size as it’s blurred but 300g are £1 always at Tesco, Asda etc and the middle front bag definitely has a cherry Tom in there so bad picking too

    Baileys Brandy Cream 1p at Sainsbury’s nationwide but they’re all Use By 4th Jan (today) unsurprisingly, though they also have brandy flavour Elmlea which is Use By 11th June. 
    Stocks vary between stores. Some on Facebook reporting dozens left; only 3 left in Christchurch.

    We went to M & S yesterday.  Loads of cheap mince pies plus a “selection box” of Christmassy items reduced from £16 to £3.75  :). I was looking for a Christmas cake but they had been sold out before Christmas but the “selection box” had a small one.

    I think every shop that sells food has reduced mince pies to get rid of stock.  They need the room for hot x buns and Easter eggs  :D
