Speckled Hen is one of the ones that doesn't appear to be on the multibuy in M anymore but is now a price reduction to £1.25 each.:p:) Would be great though if APG not only compared from full price but also gave the lower price per bottle of M and then subtracted more, thinking it was also in the M multisave.

One can only hope, my favourite beer x

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: another DS2 ism......elbows are the knees of your arms :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

The best one DS came up with was one day he was scratching between his legs, he had been wearing football shorts that morning and refused to change even though he knows the material irritates his skin. I asked him to stop and go get changed, he turned round very serious looking and said "you'd be scratching too if your wee sacks were itchy!" I asked him what was he on about and he said "do you know the sacks things behind my willy that hold all the wee in? Well them!" :rotfl: it still makes me smile when I remember his serious face telling us this.

Been there, with depression tabs, awful realisation that you are slipping back into it and need meds again x

I'm just glad that I can now recognise when I need help and when I think I'll be ok. I have been very low in the past and it would have been DH who turned and said he thought I needed help.

I think the worst was PND after DS was born, I worried that if I told them exactly how I felt that they would take DS away, I didn't want to lose another baby. We'd lost our 1st at 12 weeks 4yrs before and to this day no one in the family knows, I was in shock at finding out I was pregnant and then it never seemed to be a good time to tell and then we lost him or her and I was in such a state that I couldn't tell anyone and then as time went on I never seen what would be gained from telling them.
In fact this is only the second time I've actually told anyone about it other than DH and my GP.
I remember very well how we coped back then and the plans we made. For months we couldn't sit in the house, every evening we walked round and round a local park like we had done before we lost the baby, we talked quite a bit about things and made plans, talked loads about the baby. Done all the usual, wondered who she (we decided the baby was a girl down to how sick I felt) would have looked like and how we would have been walking round that same park pushing a buggy.
We made a point of pushing DSes buggy round that park and it helped us a lot, any time I felt over whelmed I just went there with him and walked round and round until I felt better, most of the time I was in tears but it eased over time. I still go there from time to time but not as often as I used to.

Well now that I'm suitably emotional I've realised how late it is and I have to be up in 5 hours!

Good night anyone who's up.

Doesn't seem like many are sticking it out tonight

Seems typical - with me arriving immediately after everyone's said 'goodnight'. As I mentioned a little earlier, I have managed to clear the decks today in preparation for a possible glitch day. So I've got a free day!!:j:j:j Today (Thursday). (Back to work tomorrow though:(.)

I think it's wait for those shops done from around 6am onwards and early wombles. If it starts to go glitchy, I am ready here to start with lists of things vs all the different rivals!

Before we get to any glitching today (which may or may not materialise), my late night shopping was this unsavvy shop:

Why £2.21?

6 items (4 different) on your bill qualify for comparison Morrisons

+£1.73
2 x Cravendale Fresh Filtered Semi Skimmed Milk (2L)£3.96£3.00
1 x Swizzels Matlow Strawberry Refresher Bar£0.10£0.12
2 x Weight Watchers Chocolate & Vanilla Mousse (2x80g)£2.00£1.18
1 x ASDA Smartprice Broken Mandarins in Light Syrup (3...£0.23N/A
1 x ASDA Fresh Tastes Carrot & Peas (400g)£0.75N/A
1 x ASDA Smartprice Shower Gel (500ml)£0.50N/A
1 x ASDA Smartprice Midget Gems (250g)£0.39N/A
1 x ASDA Smartprice Medium Sliced Brown Bread (800g)£0.47£0.50
Comparison total (compared products only)£6.53£4.80

The milk came back as expected, since this is a price change from today (so no longer available now sorry). This was on 2 for £3 in-store last night, when the shop was done, but came back with the new prices, reflecting what's online for delivery the day after.
The WW mousses - what is there to say on those?? First, the £2.00 is the A multibuy price, so that has been picked up last night (Wednes.) but I didn't expect this to glitch just yet - so this was a test done to see if the Morries pricing had been picked up. (Although I bought two of them just in case!) It may go glitchy today, so this might help some of you!

I was really chancing my luck on this shop, as it's exactly 8 different items. And very much risk indeed - but I know what I'm doing!:rotfl:- sort of - the WW mousses show for me only when logged in on MSM - so maybe they're not available in A's in some parts of the country - I got back from the shop and only then checked properly that every item was also available logged out. I couldn't find the WW mousses!:rotfl::rotfl::D

Here's the vs W result that was, supposedly, my reserve back-up in case the M's price wasn't picked up:

4 items (2 different) on your bill qualify for comparison Waitrose

+£0.46
2 x Cravendale Fresh Filtered Semi Skimmed Milk (2L)£3.96£3.00
1 x Swizzels Matlow Strawberry Refresher Bar£0.10N/A
2 x Weight Watchers Chocolate & Vanilla Mousse (2x80g)£2.00£2.50
1 x ASDA Smartprice Broken Mandarins in Light Syrup (3...£0.23N/A
1 x ASDA Fresh Tastes Carrot & Peas (400g)£0.75N/A
1 x ASDA Smartprice Shower Gel (500ml)£0.50N/A
1 x ASDA Smartprice Midget Gems (250g)£0.39N/A
1 x ASDA Smartprice Medium Sliced Brown Bread (800g)£0.47N/A
Comparison total (compared products only)£5.96£5.50

You can see it wouldn't have gone to plan!! Those mousses are showing as 'any 2 for £2.00' for W on MSM when I'm logged in, yet that's not the pricing the APG is coming back with.

The Refresher bar - in my view they have a wrong price for M. I have it as 10p for M. Perhaps the price has gone down only on Wednesday and on Monday it was still 12p? So that loses me a penny, but none too worried (and I'm happy enough with the shop).

This is unsavvy as well, because the bread should of course have been whoopsied. It comes from me being unwilling to pay full price but finding the whoops breads in rather short supply (and certainly there were none available when I shopped at nearly 20 to midnight, so I probably got the best I could - having also struggled around for items following several others being unavailable/correctly priced on the SEL!). It's glitched vs M, as M, like T and S (where it comes back N/A) is Wholemeal but A is Brown. So it's shaved a couple of pence off (one of which lost on the Refresher bar) - who cares that much ("every penny counts"!!!??!)

Did quite okay on the 'fillers' - this shop compiled from those I have left on my list of items that have not already got and I needed. The Shower Gel was an attempt to see if it glitched vs M's price of 30p on a much smaller bottle (and actually higher per unit I think). Obviously N/A vs W (my theoretical back-up that wouldn't have helped!!).

The Broken Mandarins - I believe M does have a comparable product - but I thought perhaps I should have been buying in 2s as M's price I last had was 'any 2 for 50p', it's one of the few items (good value items that is) that I haven't actually got a price for this week in M - it could well be more expensive in M, if so I've got it on the right list again (glitching N/A?) and there holding the list up, to 8 items! Glad I didn't put a 10p Mallow Twists on there as, even if it would have compared vs 10p at M, and thus been effectively 9p, I haven't spent that 9p extra!! Just exact 8 items, no more than what I need!

Okay, risky-taking Savvybunny signing off for now (and back later today, sometime mid-morning probably - which of course is about 10 twelfths through the morning;) - to start posting the new M list and to start the round-about rinsing of shops if glitching major comes to fruition. Round about as it'll be several trips, three hours apart! And results and details all being brought out for you! I can't wait! I bet it'll be a flat anti-climax if it now doesn't happen:eek:.)

In two minds as to whether to post a new M list anew at this point in the thread or whether to go back to page 8, remove the current (expired) one and replace it by the new. Views on that welcomed - I am not seriously struggling to decide however, as I am more towards updating on page 8. (Simply because you can press 'first page' and then find 8 easily, whereas if this runs on, glitch or no glitch!, to the weekend, and the new list will be extending to bank holiday Mon. as well, it could be some pages back by then to find it.)

Ok... said enough (and more!). I'm looking for your early doors shop results.

Back later!!:D (Wishing us good luck - perhaps this will do the trick as it worked last time: :j:j:j) Now, what fillers to use if I shop vs Sains or T next time(?)

Morning Westie!! Morning all.
