Evening, hope everyone is well

I've spent the afternoon in the bathroom - dislodging OH's traditional "Xmas log" from the U bend :mad:

Thankfully he has the good sense to be mortified and embarassed :rotfl:

For your information:

Another 'glitch' there was that the Terry's Milk Chocolate Oranges (175g) are actually, I think, more expensive in M - although by exactly how much I can't tell you as M's price was too high for me. Also it may be the Matey Bubble Bath is lower priced at M than £1.98 unless the offer's come off on that last week (or I'm thinking of the wrong character version). (Why anyone would ever buy that at £1.98, or even at M's £1.24(?), is beyond me as I went Sv A on it when A were £1, although doubtless that's too expensive too!!)

I don't want to comment on every item, but that Bacofoil surprised me, having a cheaper price at M - although, then again, M's own brand Turkey Foil (no version at A unfortunately) was £1 whilst stocks lasted recently, for same size, so even the Turkey Foil wrap seems a 'mistake' - which I suppose is what to expect if your sister's shopping 'normally', rather than in the, I've decided far cheaper, 'abnormal' way of shopping that we all do. Was the best option if no M nearby.

We needed a new glitch;)

But then again the Cadbury highlights are 4 for £1 and that multibuy isn't showing either so it may be one of those days but I hope not!

I hope it's not just a boxing day glitch. I fancy some free JF:) If it is, don't shoot the messenger
