Weekend Whoopsies

Its been really wet and horrible here today, its hard to believe that its May next week, where is the sunshine ?

I managed to have three big bags of shopping today for £10.02, and the freezers filling up again but I can't resist the reductions. Luckily we caught the shops at just the right time, here's what I snapped up;

Sainsburys £5.49;

Sausages........................................... 30p from £1.29
Two cheese and potato bakes............50p each from £2.15 each
Two packs of Asparagus...................50p each from £2 each
Limoncello Cake...............................99p from £4.79
2 cheese and potato pies....................50p each from £1.89 each
Cream Horns......................................40p from £1.50
Pork pies............................................50p from £2.12
English muffins.................................30p from 80p

Waitrose £4.53;

Two packs of Aloo Gobi Saag ...............................39p each reduced from £2.09 each
Seven curries, Jalfrezi, Tikka Masala and Korma...39p each reduced from £4.17 each
Single Cream ..........................................................25p from £1
5 pack of sesame seed bagels..................................39p from £1.31
Houmous.................................................................19p from £1.67
Smoked salmon pate................................................19p from £1.67

This should have cost £61.60 purchased earlier in the day. A few minutes earlier and I could have snapped up the reduced fresh meat, some students beat me to it and made their way off to the tills with baskets full of chicken breasts at 59p each from £5. .... TTFN xx

  5. Great Haul! Mylocal super market manager must be a scrooge - or prefers to give the really cheap stuff to his staff. Morrisons in Alnwick Northumberland PAH Pah pah! We never have anything as amazingly cheap as that. I always go shopping at 6:15 pm on various day sof hte week and get not a smidgen! There are reductions but they are crap! and never more than a £1.00 off most goods.

  7. I have NEVER had such good reductions from those two shops at ANY time of day, I'm green with envy.

    Well done, and well done the students who got such cheap chicken, nice to hear of students being savvy shoppers and not living on Pot Noodles.
