    Afternoon all

    Todays best find in Sainsburys was a random box of Lindt Pralines du Confiseur in a beautiful white box on the RTC section with no SEL so I said lets at least try it. We had a look on the chocolate section and they were £12 :eek:
    This one though had a barcode sticker over the normal code and an expiry date of 31/01 - we thought it would still be £6 - far too much.
    At the till though it scanned for £2.99 so I paid for it with £2.50 nectar and 49p real money :T

    Also I found the long lost Moma yogurts for COS on the sandwich section :j - how often do I say to people try the sandwich section and then don't follow my own advice.

    Also on TCB it has 30p off Muller yogs but only valid until today. I am not going to get back to Asda today so I got 1 for each account as they are only 35p in Sainsburys - I got the famous pistatio ones - so OH has a fridge full Muller corners and I've got Moma and Muller pistatios, a fair division of goods :)

    Also in Sainsburys some clearance items on the pet food section.

    Ours had packs of 6 cans of Felix cat food for £2 :T

    Looking at mysupermarket I cant even see a supermarket that stocks the cans now - perhaps they have stopped doing them? Anyway the full price was supposed to be £4.

    There was also another brand of cat food RTC for £2.30 but for the life of me I cant think what it was now

    I've been getting the Butchers 6 cans for £2.60 from Amazon pantry. I had an order in progress but the items I needed for free delivery went out of stock so I didn't finish the order. At least now I've got my gang something different - mostly they are on Butchers morning and night with the odd fancy sachet inbetween times when its just one cat needing feeding - so I was expecting cats to get bored of Butchers shortly, problem solved now.

    Well, that was a very good show.

    We have been to every show they have had in London, started with the ones in Battersea Power Station, and we are members of the Cirque Club (free, of course) so we get advance notice.

    Sounds fab - I will deff have to be more on the ball next time round. How do you join the Cirque Club may I ask? :o

    Have you just made that up?:rotfl:

    I’m in conversation with juju’s friend Jo at COS

    The egg casback didn’t come through yesterday....only the competition entry.
    COS said it was only on selected accounts and we didn’t have it.

    It’s like talking to zippy:rotfl:

    They’ve just asked for a screenshot:rotfl:

    I’ll keep you informed:rotfl:
