Just lost a first post of the new thread, so I'm having to summarise!:rotfl:
Apologies NI; basically a 'buy in W'
Ess W Coconut Cream 160ml 30p
Ess W Pineapple Pieces in Syrup 425g 39p (but A S/P large size at 32p is cheaper)
W Fragrance Free Moist Toilet Tissue (51) 89p (MSM suggests Andrex on the Sada side, they compare in 2s vs S 2 for £2, making them 90p each, so W's version a shade less expensive, and the Andrexes are 48 so 4 wipes more in W own brand!)
Was going to include Balhsen Dark Continental Jaffa Cakes 125g (a mouthful in more ways than one!:rotfl::rotfl:) but now found them - when logged out - with an A price! (Wish I'd known that when doing my A vs W shop earlier on, putting the items into my basket when logged in - I don't like you, m^supermarket!!:mad:)
Check in about half an hour, or tomorrow, for a quick look at what compares well A vs W (post no 4 I think I'll use - some of the offers expire 12/2 so be quick - esp. as websites change a day early due to their aim being online delivery).0 -

Thanks for the new thread savvy.
I'm off to bed, night all. XLife is not about learning to avoid the storms - it's about learning to dance in the rain.0 -
Evening mad squad, nothing much to report but did find some of those 50p bin bags in my local tonight, remember the golden rule - look up - a nice stash on top shelf, thanks to op.
Finally got some mullers today, worked a treat. Thanks to op.
Oh and new thread wooooo here's hoping it a good one.:pI do try to keep up but sometimes life gets in the way.
I'm just a penny short of a pound. Peace and Love.

Hello everyone, just been out and roads very tricky around here icy sleet on top of snow. Managed to get a few wombles at a's earlier today in the rain, the trolley lads had stopped indoors but no apg return off them and all multi buys showing correctly. disappointed as one large one had multi for yogs but they were all es ones.
Need advice for a t's shop tomorrow as have a 7 off 50 spend was thinking of a few £5 chinese meal deals, and a few sav coupons, so any tips on what to get a PP return on welcome, have 2 rescue cats to feed now as their owner sadly died and they are hungry boys.0 -
Thank you savvy for the new thread. Hopefully your lists will always have first page now.
Queen of cheap I have looked on ownersdirect.co.uk and they have several different places available within your budget for the times you want.
I have used this company many times and the places offered are the owners much loved holiday homes. They have a variety of boats and flats in good locations. Well worth having a look.

Well, it's been a good day. (Long as well.) So, I've just done an Av W on post no 4 (first page) for now, and as it approaches/now is a new day, it's goodnight from me on my new thread:j. (The thread rather than the goodnight necessarily!)
Goodnight:).
Edit: Let's hope it's a glitchy day - last one was two days after first signs wasn't it???0 -
night savvy :wave: well done on the thread0

See my T vs S on the last thread http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=59253423&postcount=9179
Should still be mainly valid tomorrow (also has some cheap filler items that should work well n/a vs S) - must go soon though, so this reply is done quick.
Claude Cat Crunchies with Poultry 1kg and with Ocean Fish 1kg are both 95p in T - should be N/A at S. Two items to an 8 item shop. Chinese meal deals - others can be looking while I am away from here. Not sure what is on meal deal in T. T Light Choices Sweet Chilli Chicken and Noodles 400g coming up on MSM as T £1.20 & S £1.00 though. NA in A! Also T Oriental Sweet & Sour Chicken with Egg Fried Rice 400g - 2 for £3.00 in T not avail in S.
Those hungry cats however might deserve something a bit more. The branded cat foods though are tend to be cheaper in A.
But Go Cat Complete Chicken Duck Rabbit 950g T £2.99 S £2.00 till 19/2 (but Avs S for £1.80 net through APG would be better)
Whiskas Indoor with Chicken 900g or Whiskas Senior with Chicken 950g are also £2 in S (but offers expiring 12/2 so might be gone by the morning PP - and again would have been £1.80 via APG vs S)
Go Cat Neutered Salmon & Vegetable 950g - price cut £2.31 is £2.00 S (but also would have been Avs S) - get Go Cat Neutered Rabbit & Vegetable 950g instead (T £2.31, S £2.00, A n/a to make us feel better).
Try T Cat Food Cuts in Gravy Selection 6 x400g £2.79 - should be N/A for S or not lose too much if it compares.
Or buy Go Cat Complete Indoor Cats Chicken and Garden Greens 950g £1.76 but on a different shop to the vs S one! (Although this would be better bought in A for 10% lower than T's price via APG vs T.)
Other than this, that's the best I can do - other brand versions may well be found for those with the time to check MSM. Including switching to comp T vs A - but unfortunately I've no time to do that now.:( Sorry no Morries prices.
Best of luck, and good night all.:D0 -
Thanks for the new thread Savvybuyer.
Lovely to see Dexter on the first page
