shopping lub

Now, i normally don't support shops like tesco because they're taking over the world, but:

we've spent about £200 there this 'month' so far (since payday, the 16th -- that's like 4 days' worth of spending, ohmygod):

* i got pumpkin 3 nice long sleeved shirts for £5. They have a wide neck so she can get them on without having a meltdown.
* the turkey (and other veg to go along side it) was a reasonable price
* I just got a lovely 38F bra for £5. wow. (santa can give it to me later, heh) -- if i had known that tescos did bras big enough for my watermelons, i'd have been shopping there long time. I'd really have rather had a G but i can make do with an F.
* we got lots of nick nacks for not a lot today - crisps, cookies, mince pies, and various xmas stuff to eat in the days after xmas when we're bored and want to snack
* i'll get my glasses there next payday - prisms don't cost any extra, so i can have my lenses for free, you just pay for frames. even the test was free yay. frames are £99 with a £10 off voucher, yay
* better half has been finding organic meat at nearly non-organic prices - yay
* organic milk isnt even that much more dear than regular milk

And clubcard points? Better half hasn't been bothering with them... i signed us up with a clubcard a few weeks back - we'll make a killing on it. Wish we had all the years' past points to add on, duh. What a dummy.

We've spent waaaay too much, but its been lovely to find all the stuff we need at not outrageous prices.

Tescos - love you long time. Love you more now that i live within walking distance. yay.

I've had glasses since i was 8 and prisms since my early 20s (since i moved here actually, Dr Bizers in Louisville never put them in for some odd reason!), and i find they usually charge the earth for prisms :/

Tescos say they won't, even with prisms in, the lenses are free - all you pay for is the frames.
