| I once accidentally stole a £6 bottle of wine from Sainsburys. I bought two, but I only scanned the first, and the nice self checkout lady came over and fixed the resulting 'unexpected item' error.
When I got home and realised, I didn't go back to that store for 4 weeks, in case they were waiting for me and caught me. _________________ ' "Haven't got houses." Where do they live then?'

| Shortly after lockdown (mid-to-late-March?) - and during the early period of panic-buying hysteria - I managed to bag myself a 9 pack of b*g roll from Aldi. Of those 9 rolls, I still have 2 left. ![box](/users/3715/63/33/29/smiles/2226079238.gif) _________________ Ibble obble black bobble, ibble obble out!

| Yes, I've got all kinds of quilted nonsense 4-packs left over from my desperate trudging round the Co-ops circa March 20th.
And I'm still using the 9-pack that I had open when it all began. _________________ ' "Haven't got houses." Where do they live then?'

| I have a 24 pack that I bought online, once all the panic was over. I am saving it in case of future panics. _________________ ![Feats of money-saving - Page 5 Bunnyd10](https://i.servimg.com/u/f62/19/90/50/40/bunnyd10.gif) |

| I'm most impressed by the quiche, because I don't know how much Converses normally cost.
I myself saved 65p this morning on reduced faux ham slices. _________________ ' "Haven't got houses." Where do they live then?'

| I did my weekly grocery shop today. It included 2 bottles of Tresemme (I forget if it's the shampoo or the conditioner). They had been €5.73 but were marked down to €2.87 each! If I've understood the commercial I watched last night, said product will have me looking like Alesha Dixon in no time. |

| It's stedorlordendel! ![flower](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_flower.png) I got some cheap sprouts from the Co-op this morning, reduced to 89p, but I can't remember what the original price was. They were delicious though. _________________ ' "Haven't got houses." Where do they live then?'

| I have put two USB fans under my radiator, to see if such a thing does indeed make your room feel hotter. _________________ ![Feats of money-saving - Page 5 Bunnyd10](https://i.servimg.com/u/f62/19/90/50/40/bunnyd10.gif) |

They have now been on for 5. _________________ ![Feats of money-saving - Page 5 Bunnyd10](https://i.servimg.com/u/f62/19/90/50/40/bunnyd10.gif) |

| They have now been going for 30 minutes.
The room does seem to be warmer, especially at the far end but I don't have a thermometer. _________________ ![Feats of money-saving - Page 5 Bunnyd10](https://i.servimg.com/u/f62/19/90/50/40/bunnyd10.gif) |

| I bought an onion and put chopped onion on top, and extra cheese. And I served it with baked potatoes. And while it was cooking I had an hors d'oeuvre of sprouts which were left over from Friday. _________________ ' "Haven't got houses." Where do they live then?'
