    Hmmm, I have 60 bags of ballast that need moving from the front of the house, to the back of the house, through the house. I really cant keep putting it off, but not looking forward to it. Maybe after another coffee.

    Morning.

    Largest cups scanning at the bargain price, if you can check an empty one first. Scamps had them scan penny one store but full price at another. HTHs

    Thanks tiny x no large cups left in my local x
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    Postie just brought me a CC mailing. Why do I never get conditional spends :(:( this one has 2 vouchers for £2 off £7 and £2 off £8 on any pet product. Im not liking the way it says 'any pet product'. I wonder if that means a single product costing £7 or £8? if they work on a mix of pet products, I'll be able to use them. Guess there's only one way to find out:cool:

    Whilst we are on this subject...

    Young's Fish Cakes (12 pack in A £2, 6 pack in M £1), BTW, would not appear to glitch vs £1 on the 12pk if bought in A. On a womble, I have the 12s comparing N/A elsewhere but £2 vs £2.39 for M, so I'm not sure what they are picking up (I can't find 12 pk Young Fish Cakes in any of the 3 M's stores available to me, over time, perhaps they have them in the APG collectors' stores?). Glad I didn't need to buy them to check on them.:)

    So... do *not* put Young's 12 fish cakes (frozen) on an M comp. If you need them, buy either on their own in A (£2) or buy the 6 pk version (£1) in M, or (if you're risktaking/a little adventurous) the 12s as a filler on any comp except vs M. (An 'expensive' filler of sorts, so only if you were buying them already and to help make the numbers up.)

    In fact, I don't like cond. spends. That require me to spend so much in order to get the amount off. (I prefer a straight amount off, with no minimum spend.) It's not so much the limitation to a particular type of product for me - although sometimes it is (especially if the price of the products I can buy has increased - by more than the value of the voucher? - and hasn't now gone on offer elsewhere).

    Mine came on Thursday, so they are getting dispatched, just slowly.

    I picked mine up this morning from the sorting office.

    There may be some triggers to that Lynx offer. (Probably items not stocked by my rubbish store!:() Should buy only one of those body spray, plus one of the triggers if they exist and are available for use, as it appears to be non-glitch day. (But... don't rush out without checking what it would amount to and there may be better offers around!;):))
