    Interesting. For ages the Value Peanut Butter was 65p in Tesco and Sainsbury and Asda, something like that anyway, then all of a sudden it went up to 90p in Sainsbury, so put that jar back and bought in Asda. Now it is 65p in Asda, 70p in Tesco and Sainsbury. I try to stock up in Asda but can't always get there, Sainsbury is generally more convenient than Tesco as there is a small one in a town I go to.

    I didn't like the Sainsbury's one :(

    Hi - I've been lurking a lot on here recently. I find a lot of the discussions really confusing! But I'm trying to read and learn.

    I just wanted to say thank you. I picked up my order of 10 gingerbread candles today - very impressed. I will be giving these away to the few people I give Christmas gifts to. Who would ever know they only cost 25p a pop?!

    How can they be cost effective???? Surely they must cost more than that to make, then ship and not to mention the meters and meters of cling film they were wrapped in!

    Very grateful thank you :D

    Well stop lurking:p

    I've found another good one but we will need to put it on email alert. It keeps coming in stock but we will need to be quick

    Sally Hansen......normally priced over £10

    The gingerbread candles are lovely and you are right.....lovely Christmas giftd:)

    No it's finished but they'd left the signs up, so they had to give me a refund for one bottle and a £2 giftcard for overcharging me. :)

    Sns


    first time ive been in my asda for a while and the sel on a few of the wines were still there....but I knew my store wouldn't willingly give a gift card without causing a fuss, and as I want to keep a low profile...

    I have only ever had 1 giftcard, and that I asked for, but I had to fill in my name and address, is this normal ? just wondering

    Guess who came home without buying the soups :(. Need to go back out again (or am I too lazy).

    I've had a Souper evening and I'm on tick tick alert:)

    I came in tonight to face this.......one of the before pictures of the kitchen:o

    Look at the difference in the colour of the stone floor:eek:

    Bet when we go to bed tonight there will be spiders all over the place:eek:
