I don't go to Iceland as there's no parking, it's on the pedestrian precinct. I do walk past sometimes.

I should go, they used to do really nice frozen rainbow trout.

Welshpoppy I'm sure they think you look so young for '60' 🙂

I just looked online and they still sell that rainbow trout so must pick some up next week on my way back from the gym.

have recently discovered Aldi - great price on cheese :)

My youngest & I love cheese either on toast for him or a toasted cheese sandwich with soup, but wow soup has gotten expensive so have switched to Bramwell's from Heinz without noticing a difference in flavour.

Everything is expensive! And my income is currently precisely 0.00 per month right now so I definitely need this thread again!

Currently using USB lights and previously charged laptop as there's a Power Move Plus event from 5.30 to 6.30pm with my energy provider. If you use x amount less energy you get a discount. I don't get the maths of it tbh, but two weeks ago I got a discount of £1.56. I'm with Ovo.

Got something to say?
