    is there a better signal then are you a friend of martins , i nearly ended up with an !!!! hole like the tunnel at heathrow airport , so to avoid anymore risk of being gang banged , can we try something else?

    please

    Nearly spat my morning coffee everywhere reading this :rotfl::rotfl:
  • can i ask a question regarding the SS....
    I have read that if items are not submitted within a week then they will be deleted from the SS, is this correct?
    so, if that is the case, then what will happen to the old time favourites? such as magnums, enigmas, the things that we all know are DTD , nobody is going to submit a form for these items knowing that we already know they are DTD (as long as prices dont change within a week), then eventually that particular item is going to dissappear off the SS and people are going to think it is no longer DTD, the list is eventually going to get shorter and shorter.
    I did notice last night that the vaseline lip therapy was not on the SS so i submitted a form, but we all know that this one works as it has done all week, but if nobody is submitting a form for an old time favourite then its going to dissappear from the SS...
    Anyone know where i am coming from or am i talking utter jibberish here?
    yes you are right but i can see the sense in what they are saying,items can change at any time,we cant just asume an item is still working,so yes its a bit of a pain that we have to reconfirmitems we know are working but it means the spreadsheet is kept more up todate and reliable :T
    Oh no total not enough for voucher.......quick run..go find something...come onlook harder...your holding up the ques..just grab something..anything everyones looking....

    which area do you live?
    It`s nice to be important, but its more important to be nice.

    How long have you been waiting? I'm still waiting on one from 19th Apr which I entered at 7.45am.

    Seriously, try the trick with the back button using IE advocated in this thread...it does sometimes work.

    The SS editors are all volunteer DTD'ers as well, I am sure all time favourites like the magnums are going to be updated.

    If you see something that hasnt been confirmed or youve DTD it, please submit a form.

    If its been confirmed already that day there really is no need.

    Remember, with all our/your help the SS is a fantastic work in progress and is only as good as the people submitting forms! :T

    Well just had the cod loins for tea (The ones that were £16 a Kg and I didnt get DTD on!!!:mad:) and they were delicious. They were definately the only ones that were on the fish counter but maybe they did'nt work as they were Smoked DYED cod loins.

    I'm sure these must be wrong.

    I have bought the £15 per kilo un-dyed, white ones and they work and are delicious.

    You can freeze them according to my fish man so I will be stocking up.

    The last time I saw 'A friend of Martin's' in Tesco they shot dirty looks like it was THEIR store, tut tut. However I have seen many friends of Martin when the Boots clearance starts, the usual suspects every year and they are all lovely people :)
