I've only ever followed up on on two of your reports before and on both occasions the store was sold-out. So, it was hardly a surprise when I arrived at Morrisons this morning to find their champagne shelves empty. It seems to me that this is just a way for the shops to manipulate MSE and get them to send thousands of customers to their supermarkets. Surely you should be making sure that there is a reasonable stock available before putting offers such as these in your newsletters. Either that or allow some of the smaller shops to rip you off in the same way.

This morning? My three local branches of Morrisons were all sold out of the big-name brands by Monday lunchtime The biggest of those branches (Peckham) did say they were expecting more stock as the week went on, though.

this deal will finish this sunday, it was due for two weeks but the stock just inst there. please dont shout at the staff, it aint their fault, there is a restriction on, but some people are so greedy they just come back another day or sometimes later at night to buy more.

ste_coxy

there are none available in the manchester area :@(

hopefully they will be getting more stock in this week though

Just rung my local store and they are getting more stock in tonight, for sale tomorrow... would definitely recommend you ring and see if your store is doing the same.

My local Morrisons (Canterbury) only had Lanson in today - but boxes and boxes of it.... don't know if that says anything about Lanson :-)

Lanson is £14 at Sainsbury's at the moment too

IMHO, champagne is far too over-rated; I do like a nice white wine, but for the cost of champagne, I certainly wouldn't be able to do a blind taste-test and tell it apart from other sparkling wines.

So...(apologies if this has already been posted) but Tesco FINALLY have their own brand Cava back on the 3 for £10 offer. They did it last christmas too, and to be honest, we just quaffed that all over the festive season last year, and pretended we were proper posh, lol!!!

It's very nice, and now very CHEAP - hope that helps someone!!

I agree!! M&S Cava is better than most champagnes ive tasted - My OH disagrees - but i reckon if i told him it was champagne he wouldnt know - in fact - i may try this (this is someone whos 'ambition' is to drink don peringon sp?) anyway i think of the price of some champagne and work out how many bottles of cava i can get and it makes me smile - id rather have 5 bottles than just the one anyday TYVM!!
