Netto at moment have 4 tins of Branstan Baked Beans for 99p I dont like them but eldest and boyfriend eat them, their lunch is usually Beans on toast so use 2 tins.

Also had 6 Muller corners on offer for £1.45 and Activia 4 pack for 99p

did get packs of reduced chipolatas 16 in pack for 50p so bought 4 packs as tiddler and laddo love sausages and we are quite partial to a sausage sandwich, also got a couple of steak and kidney pies for hubby at 25p all gone in freezer .

Think most of the stuff in my freezer has reduced stickers on lol

LOL Mac, nope, just not long out of my student scrimping days. I could lament you with the delights of 9p smartprice noodles and 29p pasta in sauce mixes too if you like? LOL

Oooooh I am feeling all Frugal now........... Just got back from shopping. The bill was £61.03 and I paid £3.36.
I used the shop money back coupons, cashed in my loose change from the money tin and used the vouchers to get a new shopping bag and points towards my next shop.

Now.............what shall I make for tea ?

Come round for tea Mac; but you will have to share a spoon and fight off the other four diners !
Joan - just cutting up the free local paper into squares.............

Jenny - Mummy long legs are you there? Just reading the thread and see you've said your pasta sauce is out of this world.
Can you give us the recipe, I have tomatoes coming out of my ears (well not literally of course, but you get the picture)
Cheers

Those dispenser type toothpaste packages where you press the top and a measured amount comes out make the toothpaste loads more epensive than using a tube.They dispense more than you need too.

Been to Netto this morning becaus eladdo eats loads of Apples good for him but can get expensive

they have apples half price this weekend ok only one sort but he eats them and they are 74p a bag so stocked up on them.

Tesco at moment are doing Chicken Dippers for £1 for 15 but Nettos have a big bag of 67 for £2.99 so if the children eat ehm (which mine do ) is a big saving.
