Yes, they do/..................... Dont understand these bits though...
Unlock the van by holding your membership card or key fob over the card reader located behind the windscreen. The keys are inside the vehicle and ready to go. Follow the instructions on the display screen to start your journey. If you need to top up with diesel, a fuel card is provided for your convenience
Bit dodgy :eek:

Have had a quick skim and don't think I am going to be able to catch up properly but thank you all for the kind thoughts for today. :A
Funeral did not go quite to plan, imagine a "You've been framed" style clip of a mad woman (me) jumping out of limo and running after the hearse to make it go the way they had already had strict instructions to go. :mad: And then imagine hearse and limo having to do 3 point turn in the middle of the road, I think it might have been a prize winning clip. :eek:
But still I think it got any big emotional outburst out of the way before we reached the church. And I had the strength to read without faltering the poem mum had left for me.
The rest of the day was perfect even when a cat got in the hearse with mum at the cemetery and tried to get in the grave before and after. It diffused the sadness that so many people find hard at burials. :A
Have a bit of a headache now, from too much wine. Anyone remember the Wines from France Rose Bordeaux that was cheap at Ts while ago, it is very drinkable.0 -

[FONT="]Good evening. If you're reading my Morries list, you'd better stop:( [/FONT][FONT="]and start again shortly as there's a new list coming up relatively soon.
That said, you probably won't go far out if you use the list from last week, even though technically it is now out of date. The main ones to avoid are the Heinz baby foods, SP Rich Tea Biscuits and the Brain's Faggots.
So what I am to report from tonight? As you can already predict, I have some Dr. Oetker Ristorante Pizzas for you (not literally of course; I imagine A will have those for you;)[/FONT][FONT="]) that are £1.29 in M - I have five to be precise, the Pepperoni & Salame 320g, the Funghi 365g, the Pollo 355g, Dr. Oetker Ristorante Mozzarella Pizza 335g and the Speciale 330g. Of course the Funghi version is preferred as it's more gs![/FONT][FONT="]
The Nestle Original Shreddies 500g and Nestle Cheerios 375g were both at 98p (whilst stocks lasted) last week. Sadly the Cheerios came back at full Morries price £2.29 on the APG. I can report, however, that this offer is still on in M this week - and there are still stocks-a-plenty. I found the Cheerios and their 98p pricing in at least two separate places in my M's store so, with any luck, hopefully the APG price-collectors will pick it up properly this time.
I nearly kissed the Nestle Coffee 3 in 1 sachet packs when I was in M tonight:T:A - for reasons clear from this womble:
http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=61110919&postcount=8170
They have been on at £1.09 in M, and they still are. The Nestle 2 in 1 White Coffee version is also £1.09 in M, although I didn't include it in my last list as I wasn't completely sure it was exactly the same product in A and M and, of course, it's 8g less per sachet in my bias towards heavier-weighted products.
I noticed this week that the caged hen eggs seemed to have increased in price in M. I was about to rush past the eggs section, after saying to myself "No eggs offers again", so often has this become the case for consecutive weeks now. Also, about six months ago I read an article saying the cost of egg production was rising and predicting that prices in the supermarkets would have to increase. (By "no eggs offers" I mean, of course, no good offers - I don't count a reduction to £1.70 for some 6 pack eggs, or an 'offer' of 6 for "£2.00, last week was £2.20" as amounting to any offer that we should take up.) Then, my beady eye noticed that M's 6 free range medium eggs had a price SEL of 97p! Given A's 'price is now locked' on the 6 free range medium at £1.00 (and Aldi's straight price is 95p) perhaps it's time we had 10% lower than 97p. I saw no big red offer label indicating the 97p price - but, yet again, I've picked it up again!![/FONT][FONT="]
I have checked the Lotus Biscuit prices and I'd settle for what we knew already, as M's price on the 250g does not beat that of W at 66p at the moment. For those of you without a W near you, but whose best bet is shopping at T, unfortunately not for Northern Ireland though, M is 85p so it would be T 99p vs M.
Finally, for shoppers at T - comparing to M's - the Boneless Pork Shoulder is back at £2.50/kg in M - so if you're comparing from T this would seem an excellent option once more.
Oh, finally!:rotfl:[/FONT][FONT="], I just said that!, we've also got the Actimel 12 packs (12 multifruit or 12 strawberry) down to £1.92 in M (until 26/5) in case there's any m'buy glitch on the APG. Oh - and Baked Stars I have the Original 6, the Cheese & Onion 6, and the Mild Sweet Chilli 6; and the Hoops & Crosses Salt & Vinegar 6 and the Prawn Cocktail 6. M's also have Walkers Extra Crunchy 150g at £1.00 (not sure if this is relevant) - Simply Salt, Cheddar & Sour Cream and Salt & Malt Vinegar.
There's of course much more items besides these and besides those crisps. As we're up to page 440 and not far off - normally we go up to 500 (that's 10,000 posts, 20 per page), I'd thought about posting the new M list - or lists, as there's of course one Avs M and one Tvs M (and an 'M cheaper') - near the start of the next thread rather than here tonight - I don't know anyone's views on finishing this thread about now and starting a new one early??(I can't promise even the carryovers will be there tonight, but at least it could be reserved!) Just cross off the 4 pack Kiwi fruit, in addition to the others I've said above to avoid, and you'll nearly be there (Avs M). For Tvs M, the Fab Bakin Boys Cupcakes and the Cadbury puddings are no longer on.:D
