My response to the highlights in the order in which they appear:
(1) I agree with you on that.
(2) It's just something I noticed over the last few weeks.
(3) No offence taken - for that, I'd have to have taken an emotional reaction to it but I didn't.
(4) :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Thanks.

(As for meaningless and pointless, I don't myself get time to thank (or even read:eek:) every single post, though I do do occasional catch-ups and sometimes thank posts then, if they particularly stand out. I guess I'd be the one to do some really psychological in-depth research into why people thank what they have, or don't thank what they don't, and do some detailed number-crunching and statistical analysis of the whole thing! You know (if you've been here for some time) that I don't get time to press 'thank you' all the time - and, as David. told me some time ago (and I'd agree, same goes for me), he'd rather have the info. I provide than a thank you from me every time.)

savvy when I thank posts depends on 2 main things.
1. if i'm on iphone I tend not to as i'm pretty useless with smart phones.
2. depending on my fluid intake.







ie when I come in on a Saturday or Friday night , i'm normally too hissed to remember to thank posts.
but you are a valued member of the elite:)

and if you quote me I know having Friday and Saturday round the wrong way will erm compel you to point it out lol.

AvM


1 x Walkers French Fries Variety (14) £3.50 £1.79 :eek:

Cheers:beer:. Nearly saw that as Av T and thought "M are the same", then I realised it said Av M. Does that :eek: mean the price for M (even with 10% off?) is too high?

I am fully aware of the £1.79 crisps in M but reason they are not on my list is I am not considering 10% off £1.79 to be very good for 14 pack of crisps! There's much much better than that. (Such as the 6 packs, if we could have got them to glitch on multibuying, which were previously on offer but from which the offer has now moved, and onto these 14 pack - which are still a much higher price per unit than the now expired offer on the 6s.) My view is 'avoid' this 14 pack one.

Ten per cent off £1.79 for 14 pack crisps/french fries. Or 12 pack (Discos) for £1.00 previously on Tvs A recently? 8.333...p per pack on the Discos, or 11.5p/pack on the 14pk fries (after the 10% has been taken off). You decide..

Scamps back in action :rotfl:

Had a NSD ( thats a no supermarket day )

Got some extra beer from the local offi, given the extra daylight, wouldn't want to waste those saved daylight hours

Can anyone see another financial meltdown, similar to 2008 happening again ?...

good one for the 1st page mate:T

[QUOTE=Savvybuyer;61991215)

David. - as for yourself, and others who have an A a few minutes away from them, I'd have thought you could use the shopping style of vs T glitch items (herbs, potatoes etc.) for example or do Avs M and buy from the M list when in A. For those (outside Northern Ireland - there I go again:rotfl:), for those who do not have an M nearby (wanting to repeat the NI bit again, just consider that exclusion implied in what I say next) - for those of you without an M nearby, but who have an A, you can of course use the Morries items shopping in A. You do not need a store near you to compare to it (unless you're in Northern Ireland and it's M or W). So, if you're in GB, your nearest M may be hundreds of miles away - but you can still use the nearby A if you have one! (And you can rely on my price-taking from M stores nearby me, that you do not have available:T:T:rotfl::D):j

But bear in mind the N/A situation too:(.[/QUOTE]

I've used highlight Savvy as this is exactly how I should. Sometimes I do, sometimes not, if I forget myself (which happens quite often) too often at times

ok I'm going to go out now, see what I can find. Enjoy the evening, see you tomorrow all x

Depending on my idle moment. (I just click on 'thank you's occasionally if I am just relaxing and idly looking at the thread.)
