    Got given a voucher yesterday, valid until the 21st December, guarantees £20 discount on all purchases from the electronics isle over £100 in store only.

    Includes PS4, XBox One, TV's, Small domestic apps, AV, Digital Cameras, Sat Navs, Printing.

    Excludes Tesco Direct, Power Tools, DIY, Garden Electrical, Tesco Mobile, Toothbrushes (electric I'd presume) and Telecoms.

    Free to any of you lot, might be good for one of you if you're buying any xmas gifts etc from there but didn't fancy getting your head caved in on Black Friday for it <ok>

    I also got 17p off my next shop... they're so generous.

    Edit: I have had these a few times, so they're probably quite common but maybe not everybody shops at Tesco, I'm only gonna bin it if nobody wants it.

    I'm buying my Aftershave from Tesco. Nice little Prada Number. £30 for 100ml plus some kind of **** balm. £30 for 50ml everywhere else. Great value. Not sure what they're like with other fragrances but that is a bargain and a half.

    My wife works at Tesco so I get 10% off of everything (except baby milk for some reason!!!) I've saved about £400 since she started!

    I buy mouthwash, the Listerine stuff, when it's on offer, I think I've got about 8 1L bottles of it now, I pick it up when it's special offer £2.50 or something, it's usually £6. The other thing I have a lot of is washing powder, I bought 4 big boxes of it, when it was 2 for one, the Mrs was livid! <laugh>

    Gotta love a bargain!

    The reason I believe is because Tesco do not advocate bottle feeding, I'm certain I've heard this before somewhere.

    Terry, the mouthwash in Lidl is about 69p. I think it's also Listerine or something similar.

    I use it in a Philips dentajet, a capful topped up with warm water.

    It's not a bargain in Lidl though, it's just a normal deal <laugh>

    Thanks mate, I'll have a look next time I'm passing, although I might be good for Listerine for the next year or so!

    Love a bargin myself so imagine my fury when ten minutes ago I went to buy my Prada and it's sold out <mad> Nevermind, found jean paul gaultier classique 75ml edt for 24 quid, also from Tesco. That will ding dang do for me.

    Mate, I'm a shrewd shopper, don't let my lass anywhere near it, my 110 pound grocery shop will be delivered tonight. It's cost me 70 quid, 20 in savings, 20 in evouchers. Happy Days :cool:

    JPG 'Le Male' is one of my favourite EDT's of all time. I've not had it for a few years, the Mrs always used to use it all on herself. My go to EDT's nowadays are Wood by DSquared or Armani Mania, for every day use. After that, if I want something a bit special I'll dig out my Balenciaga Cristobal or my Tom Ford Azur Lime. Apparently Lidl do knock off versions of the mainstream ones, but I couldn't tell you what's what.

    I've learned how to shop a lot more frugally since buying the house in the summer mind, my money goes much further nowadays. My protein's mostly coming from Liquid eggwhites nowadays rather than powders as well so saving there as well. Still room for improvement mind!

    I go for fahrenheit or the original D&G for my formal fragrances, I'm well stocked in my D&G at the moment so the formal is covered. For everyday wear I like Ultra Violet, Prada Amber, JPG(one i've just got with the all blue buff gay bottle) and Cool Water.

    I usual get my shopping from Tesco as their club card is cock on and I seem to get a silly amount of E coupons. Makes them cheaper than Lidl and they deliver for a quid.

    Le Male, same as the one I like. I also like Ultraviolet Man, but like the JPG it seems to only last a couple of weeks, too much comes out in one spray!

    There's a fella in my gym who uses a right stinking aftershave, smells like Old Spice mixed with Dog fart, even when he's not there at the same time as me I can tell he's been in that day.

    Yeah, or make your own with what you find in the cleaning cupboard!

    I feel sorry for his work colleagues more!

    Terry it's a legal thing. No shop is allowed to do promotions on baby milk for 0-6mth olds. It's to encourage breastfeeding and discourage promotion of formula. They are bizarrely in the same boat as tabs in this respect! You'll never get a voucher or discount that works for either.

    I got six netty rolls today for £1.39.
    Not bad for a recycled tree.

    Lidl have been selling an aftershave out here for years called
    Male Eruption.
    Who would want to smell like a male eruption?

    Netty Rolls? Is that toilet rolls? I get them for free also, stick 4 in my gym bag at work, when I'm running low. Every little helps.

    My Mrs once told me to take the cream coloured toilet rolls back to work and swap them with white ones because they didn't match the theme in our bathroom <laugh>
