Purely in the interests of frugal scientific research, I managed to get no less than four quite acceptable mugs of tea out if the one tea bag.
However, I do like my tea the way I like my women: hot, sweet and weak.
I am going to be in SO much trouble for this one. <Logs off and hides behind the sofa>The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in my life.0 -

I like my tea weak and i use tesco value tea bags - i can normally get a decent cup of tea for me, a mini cup of tea for my son and a weak tea for my pooch but then the tea bag is well and truely done for!
Am thinking that tomorrow i need to have a cooking day - have a box of mushrooms that are looking slightly worse for wear and a big 800g pack of value mince that need to be used so will be doing some cooking later tomorrow with them whilst little one is in school i think.
Tomorrow is definately a day for being in the house.Time to find me again0 -

Hello All!
Changing the subject briefly, I recall reading somewhere on this thread that somebody was looking for pump style bottles. I've just bought a couple in Superdrug, 100mls size, for £1.29 each. Hope this helps...
