    Savvy you have me paranoid about when to thank your posts. I want to quickly scroll past the Morries list and thank it. As grateful as I am, I won't be needing it this week :o

    But I am looking forward to your story over the weekend :D

    Hi fairclaire - don't worry: just do what I do, randomly press 'thanks' if my cursor happens to hover over it.

    It'll be useful for some though. I myself may need my own Morries list sometime later in the week:rotfl::).

    What I've done now - I have not yet indicated the ones that are Tvs M (the majority of the list is best Avs M due to the 10%) - but I will amend in due course (tomorrow night??) once I find time.

    Instead of removing the expired items straight away, I have now decided to leave them but crossed out for a day or so (just so you can see more easily what's gone) and then remove them from the list. I'll start adding the new items hopefully tomorrow evening and/or Friday evening.

    Before I go - yes it's getting late on now:o - if you have one or more As avail. to you but are buying the baby foods T or S versus A's £1 - stop!!!:) There are some of the Heinz fruity multipack ones now at £1 in M. In addition a couple of Hipp Organic (260g) at £1.06 in M. Details to be given later, as soon as I can.

    Righto- goodbye now!!:):):wave:

    (I'll let anyone interested - myself maybe, another day? - find my earlier prediction post and compare it with the list as now stands to see what I got wrong - if anything!:D);):cool:

    Savvy....the work you put into your lists is unbelievable.

    Thank you:)

    Thought I was going round the M store very slowly tonight - but when I finally left (and discovered what time it was), it'd actually taken me less time than last week. Finally got my M list organised so I can do it slightly quicker it seems!:):beer:

    Do you go round with a clip-board Savvy, or a notepad? Genuinely curious.

    Almost a clip-board!:) I have used a notepad previously, but when it wasn't as long a list as it now is! It is, at least, getting more organised a list as a result of being on here.:):T

    Okay...you're all keeping me on here till the middle of the night again!:D So I'm really ... I really have to go due to RL sort-outs again! See you soon.:)

  • For anyone interested in the Sweet Sundays deal I saw various promtional packs today in my local 99p store today and the promotion is for this year (i.e its not old stock from last year). I hope this helps someone.
