Friday big Shop..

Well we seem to be back to the normal routine now after the Christmas fiasco. Last night we spotted a voucher offering £5 offf a £50 shop at ASDA so that was where we went this morning. We haven't been there for ages actually, since well before Christmas.
We walked down to the ATM but the one I use was broken and out of service so didn't bother. VT went down to the Range and the Au Natrel shop, he usually gets good Prices candles from there. Said he would see me in ASDA in 10mins by the books. When he arrived there he said it had closed down. Couldn't believe that, it had been there for years. Trouble is they had a lot of stock and not selling much. Too many cushion covers in my opinion.
Goat loads of things in ASDA, they had a good promotion on cleaning things mostly at £1 so stocked up on floor cleaner,bleach green scratchy pads etc., all very cheap. I think that is the trouble with ASDA, everything is cheap so you chuck it in the trolley..before long it is piled high and you have spentt loads. When we got to the checkout VT said have we spent the 50? then he went off to get to boxes of cat food just in case. In fact we had spent £71, so the Five pounds easily came offf. Home quite early because we didn't stop for coffee. we don't like ASDA coffee it is horrible, and served in those little plastic cups..Nasty. Definitely one area they could improve on.
Posted Johns parcel this morning, VT said it was £5.05, hope it isn't too long before it gets there, and hope he likes it. A Top gear DVD speciala box set of two dvd's . Can't stand them myself, but I know they like them.
Love the new kettle..it looks so pretty in the kitchen all lit up blue. Must get VT to take a picture of it.
Tonight we are having :
Toad in the Hole with Quorn sausage friom ASDA,
Gravy
and a few Chips for a treat. We weigh them out of course, 200grms between us!
