    Maybe I'm just being ungrateful but I do feel Morrisons' 50p offers are getting progessively worse each time they are announced. I mean, what self-respecting retailer would sell a pack of FOUR eggs? :confused: Smilarly, FOUR rashers of bacon? :confused: I'm assuming they will do the usual 2 per customer restriction? Woop de doo, 8 slices of bacon per visit! :rolleyes: :D

    I am really glad that someone else has said that, cos I looked at the last lot of 50p items and thought the same.

    It will be a price crunch offer when it is a standard pack with the price crunches to 50p - till then it is just another sales gimmick!

    I only got the bacon X 2 as I thought that was a good price and my brood like a bacon sarnie at the weekend. :)

    i noticed a similar issue in tesco with their 50p fruit and veg deal. you can buy loose peppers for 50p each which seemed like a good deal unless you just happen to notice that their prepacked pack of 3 retails for £1.38 :rolleyes:

  • Now that this has fallen from the front page of Old Style, I'll add it to the existing Morrisons offers thread ;)

    Try tesco value bacon - the smoked is especially georgeous for carbonara! You do have to look through for "good" packs, but some weeks it is all really nice slices, other weeks a bit fatty. On the good weeks I buy several, other weeks none at all.
    I don't buy it from there, but I do keep my eye on it as bacon is something I use a lot of, but thanks :)

    I get it from the cash and carry and whilst I was there, I picked up a pack of 'bacon mis-shapes' - 2.2kg for £1.99. It didn't look too bad, so I bought some (would've been silly not to, really) and I just cooked a bit - it came out like big, thick gammon steaks - to put into pasta for my daughter and it's delicious. Will definitely be buying that again.
  • :confused: Have the Morrisons 50p offers finished now. Been in my local Mr Ms today and couldnt find anything about 50p offers. Thought they were running all August. Was I mistaken or is it September already

    I think that the offers were only running every other week?
    With this week being the week off. Maybe someone else knows better??

    It's only a game

    My local branch definitely still had the bacon and eggs at 11am today.
    "Cheap", "Fast", "Right" -- pick two.
