Was doing the rounds at whoopsie time (as one does ), and whilst in Morrisons went to check the prices of their gallo wines........ the one I was interested in was same price as it is everywhere else, but.....

spotted some a) Peach Bellini 75cl and b) Raspberry and Elderflower Fizz 75cl. Both 4%. Not priced, so asked price, £1.99 each

They came home with me

???!!!:D

:rotfl::rotfl:The Peach Bellini and Raspberry/Elderflower have been on my 'M cheaper' list for many weeks!:rotfl:(See the extract below!:rotfl:)

I also noted some Blossom Hill White Grenache 75cl at £4.99:eek: in M until 19/5 (okay, v. expensive compared to £1.99, but £4.49 if compares on APG and more or less usual price for 75cl wines in the supermarkets) - but this didn't make it into my list as I wasn't entirely sure the exact same item was stocked in A.

Around here they are making 2 separate families house share :eek: to fill the properties

That is absolutely awful, all politicians of any party have a lot to answer for. Things seem to be moving backwards not forwards.

The previous government should not have sold all the housing stock off dirt cheap. There is very little left these days.

On the bright side, they are building more properties which are aimed at people with disabilities and we have had about 100 in our area which were all snapped up more or less straight away. I guess we just have to try and look on the bright side or else it's all doom and gloom.

Many thanks - it's very disappointing that they haven't picked up the Jalfrezi. Your hope and mine too there.

(Original list of Indian meals is here - http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=61183073&postcount=782. I've now added a note about the Jalfrezi. We all know the risk of shopping vs M.)

The meal deals didn't make it into my big list, I think partly because of the difficulty of showing which combinations of items to buy to make up a meal deal and because it's difficult to tell (without a more detailed in-store check) what the items are as this isn't shown on MSM online. I've only time to check on this in M and not also in A instore I'm afraid!:D
