Encouraged Learning In Trading Excellence

Just to add to my post #9171, you might find you strike gold though and the item compares to S at 10p (if it's a discontinued number that Sains has just stopped selling - it seems Sains, now, do have these Pampers in 68s but not 66s (the 68s are full price unfortunately)) - if MSM's computer happens to have picked up a residual price in some data in the background of S's website and, in that case, an item showing as N/A may run, unbeknown to us, at 10p at the competitor (in this case, S) for about a week or so from the time the item went out of stock. However, it didn't work for me when I tried the £2 Skips in A that T's recently stopped selling on their website.

If A were to reduce the price to about £7 on its Pampers tomorrow, perhaps to clear out old stock if this is a discontinued line, then I might be tempted to buy it on an Av S comp as I wouldn't be risking as much.

Bubbs, keeping fingers crossed for you, and not just the ff ones either! The photos are scary.

tweets, am thinking of you, too, and hope you found something good on telly. I hope, too, that you enjoy DS when he comes. It could be so much worse -- so many kids don't bother to come home and don't bother at all with presents. Try to keep smiling!

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 a plastic box, 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...)

gr8t iv just copyed it down thanks its going in our family recipy book hun if he likes it so thankyou it will be called Picasso s&s:A
