    I remember the good ole days of r n r used to fill everyones freezer with free meat, especially the chickens.

    Anyone on here remember the gammon joint glitch, loved that.

    Yes things have slowly got paired back a bit:(:( but I suppose where one thing goes, another crops up.

    Right - after my one word post, which I managed to edit down to a smiley and full stop after it, but I ended up with a smile at the top-left corner which I can't get rid of!:):) Ah well, that's :cool:.

    Sorry to see the glitching ending and "great news!":( - it's tempting me to go to sleep and get up early on Sunday mornings in future:rotfl::D.

    I will be shopping again at A though. Thanks to one of their rivals, having more than doubled the price of a particular product, putting it back down again to the original price. I wrote in to the manufacturer with some trivial comment and got an MOC back. I knew if I just waited a short while, the rival would fall into my trap of lowering the price to the same value as my MOC:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:. So - off to A next time, money off, and then refund to 10% lower than the rival's price - paid to take the item away:money: . And avoids having to shop at the rival:T:T:T - whose price has remained unchanged apart from a two week blip up to more than twice the price:D.

    I went to that one too but it was a fleeting visit

    The sun was out so I reckon they were all in the Peggy or treble :rotfl:

    Talking of those two. I heard the treble is closing down and the peggy is being turned into a restaurant. :eek:

    The treble has been closing down for the last 10 years :rotfl:

    I'm surprised about a restaurant at the peg, unless it was mcdonalds I can't see many people going there

    The Bourne end has closed down again. Wayf on its way to being a coop and foresters eventually going to be Tesco

    Saving way too much on the multibuys - and therefore losing it all on the APG when it no longer glitches.;):D:rotfl::rotfl:

    [...And..failing to use the flaming coupons on the Dr Oetkers:(.]

    [Edit no 2: And paying with hard cash and not wombled APGs - double:(.]

    :naughty::naughty::naughty: Savvy - having three goes at the answer, of which at least one of them should be right.
