    Got 4 x £6 off wys £30 vouchers for waties:j:j

    Can somebody please remind me if I buy meat/fish in the 3 for £10 offer does the full price count towards my total or is it just the £10? I know this has been said many times, but I rarely go to Ws and I can't remember (or find the answer!).

    Plan to go to toon this week, using free bus pass:j:j
    Coffee and cake in John Lewis, visit bank, generally mouch around then back to the Waities beside the bus station, another coffee, paper, magazine and shopping to take me up to £30 then bus home.


    Yes full price counts towards spend, eg 3 x waities essentials stewing beef, £4.40 each or 3 for £10, counts £13.20 towards your spend. £2.15 for a latte, new August mag just out £2 and sunday best day for cost of paper :)

    .
  • Thanks Pippo! A word of warning, the Alpro milks don't seem to be comparing the 3 for £3 at Morries advertised on Mysupermarket.

    Thanks Pippo! A word of warning, the Alpro milks don't seem to be comparing the 3 for £3 at Morries advertised on Mysupermarket.


    The Alpro was on offer at Waities, all cheaper than Asda, some from 97p to £1.??? until yesterday.

    The 3 for £3 offer started today. Possibly Asda's system has not caught up yet and is still using yesterday's prices, which were still around the £1 a carton mark

    Just corrected my typo, the stewing beef £4.40 each.

    Depends which Sunday paper you get, mail is £1.80, think couple of others dearer. As long as you hit £20 before any discounts, if you have the 4 off £20 S&S. If I am a few pence short I usually get few bananas and weigh and label them so I am sure I have spent enough

    latte £2 ish - don't forget to take your own cup
    Bonne mammon crème desserts x 2 £2 but I had MOCs for these
    = £0

    2nd shop had he Yeo butter which was on GJ for £2 (40p cashback) - no crème desserts left

    I have free Walkers Poppables on Shoppmium at Co-op :-).

    I got very excited then for a minite and then I remembered the Honest kids six mini drinks free from COS at the Co-op we have tried and failed to find anywhere ...

    No I should not be so cynical - we are going next to a Co-op tonight so who knows :D

    I've just been down to mine and they had them! I was very suprised as it's a small Co-op. They were down near the plastic picnic plates and BBQ tongs etc. I also got a till-spit for 50p off sugar so I used it for 1kg of granulated sugar at 69p :-).
