tweets chin up sweetheart, a big hug for u.

reading what u wrote there nearly made me blub...what on earth is wrong with kids these days. and what do u mean nothing else to open? why not? where is your pressie from this ds!

I'm saying he has to give u a pressie, but he should FEEL the need to. We spoil our parents, they are so wonderful and caring and just coz my siblings and I moved away doesn't mean we forget all they did.

I usually arrive 2 days before x-mas earlier if I can, do all the x-mas food shopping for her, start prepping treats for xmas then my other siblings etc join in. My brother lives abroad so posts her present early to me, then I bring it to me mum's and chuck it under the tree every year. why oh why are some kids being so not thoughtful.

I don't care how old I get and what my o/h in future that is, would say, I will always come early and sort everything out for her, tis not the age for her to be running about I think...she did all that with us when we were kids!

sorry if I have got the wrong idea about your ds, just sounds like he's not making an effort, that all.

Hello all:) How are we all today:)

my sally pp's not in still:eek: guessing they will be n/a but hey... fingers crossed;)

He asked what i wanted and i said a kindle but if he couldnt afford that a box Thorntons chocolates will do so i am expecting the chocs

He's bought his nan my mum a bottle youth dew perfume with body cream he told me this last week when he rang. He always buys her something nice and i just take a back seat.

Dont worry about me i cope i told my mum to come here christmas day and she refused so i going there.

Lots of folk worse of than me i got my friends on here i got no friends up here i like being on my own with my baby girl my Poppy (dog) she gets told some tales and looks at me as tho to say dont worry mummy .

I think it probably won't compare and cautious me I wouldn't buy it (presumably in A) due to the size of the price difference. This is also what it is showing as (S out of stock) when I'm logged in on MSM. Logged out, S becomes N/A. As a result, I think the situation when logged out seems to be the more accurate one.

The price, showing as out of stock when logged in, may indicate an offer price that has expired today - or is very soon to expire, e.g. tomorrow, due to the prices being those online (and hence may have become unavailable to online shoppers at sains.co.uk if all tomorrow's delivery slots have gone). You sometimes find items on MSM.co.uk marked out-of-stock where it is the stated price that no longer applies rather than the item itself literally being out-of-stock at that supermarket. (The item is out-of-stock at that Пprice rather than out-of-stock.)

I've also checked sains.co.uk and unfortunately I can't find the product in question. I've done a wider search on google, to see if it can find a cache from Sains.co.uk taken a few days ago when the product might have been there and with the £7 price. Unfortunately it has returned nothing relevant and I can't find it at that price or any other. It's possible that a T PP vs S might pick up the item and refund back to match Sains' £7 price, even if you can't find it in your Sains store, as T may scan another area of the country and find the item on Sains.co.uk in that place. However, I doubt it (although my doubt may be shown to be wrong though). MSM also scans different areas of the country and, as it's showing N/A for Sains on MSM.co.uk when logged out, I'm sorry this seems an offer at Sains. which you've just missed.

Unfortunately neither do I have a Morrisons price for this item (I'm useless tonight aren't I?) as inevitably that wasn't a shelf I checked that thoroughly last time - you lot on here always seem to go straight for the shelf that I didn't look as much at! My thought is continue looking around I'm afraid to see if you can find another offer on another suitable product at a competitor. Unfortunately I know these items can run out on us and you may need this sort of item quite soon, and be keen to save as much as you can due to the relatively high price of these sorts of items. I will however try to look in M at this section when I start again in the new year.

Sorry I can't be of more help on this - my suggestion is keep looking around on MSM, although someone will doubtless shoot me down for this and tell me it is comparing vs S. My hunch though is it probably won't.

Thank you very much for your hard work.
I remember about 2 weeks ago on HUKD people were buying them in S at that price , i've checked my local and none to be seen.

Thanks Spiderpig - I'm waiting up to midnight to go to Asda as my wife is stressing out about whether she'll have enough veg plus the size of the crowds - so I've put myself forward to try and get the stress levels down as much as possible over Christmas!
Our daughter always wears these, same size 4 also, but MSM for me is showing the multibuy offer (logged in and out) and showing Tesco as N/A - does this one maybe differ to e.g. the choc glitch?
(just checked - now it does show the £8 at Tesco, rather than N/A, but still has the 2 for £15 for Asda)

the multibuy is 2 for 15.00 but when u compare it doesnt see multibuy or didnt today and thinks you paid full price of 11.98 each

Thanks this is so true as i said before lots more people worse off than us, and btw your sealed pot must be mahoooooosive lol how did you save that much?

My sealed pot total includes vouchers I get for postal, parcel and other surveys, films I see free via the free cinema threads, bingo wins from riskfree gambling/virtually risk free gambling, free products and moc used, road kill etc, my wages for the year in effect as I no longer work:)

The 1st year I actually put money in a sealed and papermachied cardboard box I then realised how much it was getting and how dangerous to keep in the house, also the face that when I paid it into my bank account Inland Revenue could have been interested, although they had no reason to be, I couldn't really have proved where it came from as I had withdrawn money from the bank to put into the pot and it would have been a lengthy process to prove this:)

So now it is virtual and I add it up on a pad as I go along to impress my husband and daughter with howe much money I have made/saved over the year!

I don't include things like the chocolate asda glitch or it would be even higher!:rotfl:

i got a nice meat from butchers thanks MUM and MIL got turkey, pork and ham and beef and lamb and sauasages and chipolatas streky and bacon,goose fat duck eggs, and if im honest iv got lots of joints of meat in freezer but o/h wanted "fresh" . we only have a sadal of turkey and it dose xmas day and a curry and a turkey and ham pie with leeks and cream yum yum , then the rest is made in to meals, friends invited over for meals buffets , so all used up , my o/h wants the recipe for sweet n sour as i dnt like so he never makes just jar but he wuld like to try .so cam u share your recipe?

i do batch cooking but been lazy latly and just cutting meat in to portions or not and just freezing bt been so busy

Delighted to share recipe! This one is cheap and cheerful and peculiarly satisfying. Whenever I have tried to use a more complicated recipe, I end up coming back to this one.

Sweet and sour sauce

3 oz sugar
4 tbsp/60ml vinegar (I use the normal malt vinegar)
3 tbsp/45ml soy sauce
½pt water
2 tbsp cornflour (adjust depending on how thick you want it)
1 green pepper
½lb tomatoes or 1 14oz tin chopped tomatoes, drained
11 oz can pineapple pieces, drained.


(NB if I am freezing it, I do it without the green pepper and add that when I actually want to use the sauce, as the pepper is so much nicer when fresh.)


1. Heat sugar, vinegar and soy sauce in pan

2. Blend cornflour with water and add when pan is boiling. Bring back to the boil, stirring constantly. Simmer 5 mins.

3. Add remaining ingredients and simmer 5 mins more.

Add to pork pieces in casserole dish and bake gently, or cook in slow cooker, or just add sauce to cooked pork or chicken.

NB you need to freeze this in plastic boxes, not in freezer bags, as the vinegar stops it freezing hard.

Enjoy! (At this time of year, I tend to triple the quantities to go with the turkey...)
