Bit of advice needed please. If I do an online Sains shop, would I get a BM if items qualified for one, or is it instore only?
TIA

Lets hope it's Scotland only where they have increased the price.

Didn't you think to complain, I know prices are going up but that's plain daylight robbery, that's more than 9999% increase:eek:

Can you show me where he has said this? I listened to the interview yesterday and from what I can gather it was a case of pensioner benefits would be means tested and richer pensioner wouldn't get all the benefits that they currently do.....but nothing would change in this parliament.

No I can't - I did say 'apparently' and DH was reading out of the Express today and there was something on radio Devon but I only caught snippets. It was enough to stir me up though - there have been rumblings for ages and I feel its only a matter of time. I don't really trust politicians promises not to do things and I'm not sure how they define 'richer' pensioners. I suspect they may mean those pensioners who are just well off enough not to have to claim various allowances - which means that those of us who paid in for years to a company pension scheme and now get a very modest pension will lose.

I know that money has to be saved but it leaves a sour taste when we are still mostly not charging foreigners for expensive medical treatment and are also handing out vast sums in foreign aid sometimes to countries that are able to fund their own space programs.

Hi, looks like it' in store only.

http://www.sainsburys-live-well-for-less.co.uk/brand-match/frequently-asked-questions/

14. Why is my shop not eligible for Brand Match?
Your shop was not eligible, because it did not qualify for Brand Match for one of the following reasons:

You did not spend £20 or more in one transaction
The supermarket you used was not participating in Brand Match - see Question 17
You did not purchase one comparable branded product -see Question 7
Your shop was made online - see Question 20.

20. Why is this not available when shopping online, when it is with Tesco and Asda?
There are currently technical limitations which prevent us from being able to offer Sainsbury's Brand Match to our online grocery customers. We understand how frustrating this is for online customers and we are looking in to solutions.

Well, I'm back from tackling the cupboard under the stairs. Strange thing is its is. A lot tidier but still looks as full. So how come the dustbin is now half full? Does everything undergo a metamorphosis when it is put in that cupboard?

Its a variation of Murphy's Law.

Both!!!!

Elderflower champers and rose petal jelly.

Rose petal jelly is divine.

2 cups of petals and 2 cups of sugar dissolved in half a cup of water and 2 tablespoons of Lemon juice.

Stir over heat for 30 mins and pour got into sterile jars.

No need to strain out the pretty petals as they rise to the top and look exquisite!

The palest pink jam ever that needs to be tasted to be believed!

I recommend it on hot pancakes!
