My kind of shopping!

I had cause to visit a local supermarket today-you probably know it as the one where every little helps.

Well it certainly helped today, I spotted a packet of flaky pastry mince pies reduced from £1 to 40p and being a sucker for mince pies into the basket they went. When I reached the checkout they went through at the original price of £1 and when I queeried the cashier voided the transaction and gave me a refund of £1.20!

As they say every little helps!

I tpays to keep your eyes open. The funniest was years ago, when in the same shop I bought two sirloin steaks for £4.50 (I said it was a long time ago) When the assistant pushed the button for the total, it was £500. Hubby and I fell about laughing, when we looked the steaks had gone through at £450!!!

Hope you are feeling well. xx
