  • I have now had an email inviting me to the challenge, however the link I'd previously saved still isn't working in my browser.

    Will not delete this latest email.

    Don't think I'll get too many points this round, but there are some nice easy ones to complete such as the Itsu one

    These things are tailored to individuals. I've no idea what Itsu is!

    We bought some chewing gum to chew on the plane, I've now got a chewing gum target in the challenge. We only buy chewing gum a couple of times a year…

  • Itsu is a brand selling Asian inspired food, so I can pretty much get the bits to make Ramen twice and get 200 points.

    I rarely buy food to go but that's always an option I get.

    Not my thing, hence why I've never heard of it probably.

    I wonder if you've done something like opted out of marketing emails that has triggered it? Six months sounds a long time not to be invited doesn't it. That sounds like a fob off excuse to me, rather than somebody actually looking at your account and investigating why you aren't receiving any invites.

    it all seems far from random in my opinion. I've had every challenge now for at least 18 months - possibly 9 or 10 in total (I'm not sure).

    I've read that 10 million clubcard holders are now invited to the challenges. I'm sure there must be more to the invite than just some random email.

    Well so far this round is ticking along nicely. 1520 points in the bag and hopefully another 940 on stuff I buy anyway eg veg, cheese, tinned fish, bread and pasta.

    I wonder if they'll squeeze another in before Christmas? Nov 9th - Dec 20th perhaps?

    I'm at 230, not sure how many more we'll get. There's only 2 of us, there's only so many tins of tuna we can get through, and I've got a stack of Cathedral City in the fridge from last time!

    Week 4 and the grand total of 70 points. I said it was going to be a hard one.

    Never associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.

    Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.

    I'm now up to 340 with an enormous number of stock pots to use up over the winter. I've completed 2 out of 10. I've spent nothing on 3 I've signed up for. Can't see me spending £15 on veg in the next fortnight and I've still got loads of canned veg from the previous challenges. I might get another 60 points on Branston.

    I do wish they'd include Tesco Finest like they did in the early challenges. Was an easy hit with some nice treat items. And Oatly, did well on that one.
