    Hmm, you think?? I was going to do a post and see how many names from here I could get into the post, but that thought never hit me until I had almost finished typing it up. :rotfl:

    Thankyou to Naebbirac for the new thread. Lovely photos, looks idealic.

    I have just got an invite to the Lambrini campaigne.

    I am also on the free from but noticed tonight that nearly all free from products will be available on 3 for 2 from monday 13th to sunday 19th may. This will help bring the costs down a fair bit allowing for using a coupon on the free product.
    So feeling much happier about the trial and costs involved now.
    Mum have said she will eat the porridge so I am saved that part of the trial:j

    Ikea tomorrow, was meant to go today but didn't get there so no choice. Buying wardrobes and I have sat and written down every little insert I need so hoping to come away having ordered everything for delivery. Also looking for a storage bed, one where the top of base lifts up with gas hydrolics so can store in base.
    Ikea do not have one in online but often have different things in store.
    Hoping to get it all collected for us and then delivered. A bit more expense but no chance of me and mum lifting it all and doubtful will fit in car. Have a £20 off £145 spend so that £20 can go towards the help we need.

    Then sunday back to glossing door frames so stair and landing carpet can get laid.
    Needed a new deoderant tonight but not a chance of working out where I have put it as stuff everywhere at the moment.

    Fingers crossed that by this time next week my bedroom will have furniture and a bed and my stairs will have been carperted. None of the would have been acheived without the Elite helping me get my everyday costs down so I could plan the refurbishment.

    The end of the last thread did actually reveal some things of use!!:rotfl:

    The first of these shall remain enigmatic, as I'm sure the point will return in the not-too-distant future.

    The second of these is by Westvleteren at post no 9861, and I'll highlight the part that made me laugh.

    "Right who else has been glued to MyS this morning - no change on total multibuys. Hopefully going out later to test frijj as a few have been missing off the multibuy

    Flavours not showing as being in the multibuy up till 10 am

    Banana
    Honeycomb
    Incredible bonoffee
    Caramel latte
    Toffee pudding

    Actually some of them sound disgusting.

    As of the time of this edit it has changed - not showing in the multibuy now are

    Strawberry
    Banana
    limited edition (??)
    Caramel latte
    Toffee pudding

    Off to test......"


    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:


    Thirdly, I notice, during the night, David. tried to upstage me(:rotfl::D) on some Lean Pork Mince 450g in M, which he'd noticed another website reporting M as having at £1.25....

    ...You've not found anything new there David.!!:rotfl::rotfl: I have already 'collected' this product and price in my check on Wednesday. I've decided that I'll regard A's Butcher's Selection Lean Pork Mince (500g) as comparable to the M product. The M product is exactly at the lower end of the 10% weight limit.

    A's S/P Peas 1kg packs are compared to T's Eday Value Peas 900g pack (again exactly 10% lower than the A product), although M's Savers Peas, which recently also went to 900g, reverted to N/A. It may therefore not be picked up on the APG vs M's, but I'd regard it as one to put on vs M on a non-glitch shop and compare.

    I am therefore going to add the A product onto my Avs M list, regardless of whether or not the APG collectors have picked up the M item as comparable, as I think it is a valid one vs M. Be aware that, despite its name, it's not "guaranteed":rotfl::rotfl:at the initial receipt checking but it seems one to chance and go with (as opposed to being what I'd regard as a 'risky' item that may not be comparable at all). Remember that, if it did compare as it should, the effective price would be £1.25, not 10% off £1.25, due to price adjustment based on weight, but you would get more product in A for the £1.25 price.

    Now to the big M's update, so that I won't be causing further controversy with BOGOFs and/or Colgate Plaxs!:cool::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Thank you to whoever highlighted the Blockbuster console reductions. I managed to get there for 10am and Xbox sorted for Christmas :). Shame they pulled the offer this afternoon - cash flow or error? Promo material says Games and Accessories.
