The sun resistant material that Mal and Steve put on the car port has ripped at the side following the high winds the other day. So, we went to the local yapi market to look for an alternative. We decided on sheets of bamboo, ordered them and enough wood for the batons.
We paid the electricity and water bills and then popped into Hur Deniz….another 5 litre box of their Rose wine, still at the price I have listed on my bargain hunters website see link and while we were in there, Mal found some packs of Gold Fassl beer that were still at the old price of 8tl. In most places they have now gone up to 9tl. We also bought some fresh levrek.
Then on to Starling. We had bought the Batchelors soup that was on offer and it was good and so we bought 5 more cans. It looked as though people reading my bargain hunters have been in there as there were very few cans left on the shelf. We bought the 5 cans, along with other items and at the check out of course I checked my change (correct) and then checked my receipt WRONG! It was clearly marked on the shelf about 7 times 1.50tl and Mal even went and tore the large ‘special offer’ ticket off the shelf and showed her. They really aren’t interested but we weren’t moving until we had the 1.75tl she owed me. So much for their “special offers”…ALWAYS check your receipts!! The cashier wouldn’t hand back the receipt and so we took a photo of it!!
Later in the afternoon, the yapi, true to their word delivered all the bamboo sheeting. Another job for Mal to do.
