andsome Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 We used to do as much shopping as possible at the Co-Op. We always had to quote the dividend number, so that we qualified for the divi. I can remember ours even now, 187053. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D4\/!d Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 I remember buying 'broken biscuits' from our local market.. (couldn't afford the pucker one's )For me it was a penny bag of "cake crumbs" from the bakers opp the school.If you were lucky the lumps of various bits of cake had icing on too. Yummy. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
