Hello, good night!:):rotfl:

Time to mine my Tvs S (and Svs T) lists for any items that really are avail. in A but not on a.com. I saw the McVities Medley Rocky Roads in my A yesterday, just before the main glitch ended, and thought 'A actually have them after all' - thanks Floflo:T for putting taking that one step more and finding what should have clicked, but didn't:o, with me.

Medley rocky road bars not on a.com or msm but were in my store yesterday in the 3 for £3.50 offer.

Items on my lists are based on msm (and unfortunately only msm in my own area:(). As there's a 10% (plus more sometimes:D) on offer from A, that the others don't offer, I'd never knowingly compare, for example, S against T for a mere price match - if T were cheaper and an item was avail. in S but also avail. in A, I'd put it on Avs T for 10%, rather than Svs T.

So - in theory - all of the items on my TvsS/Svs Ts should have no equivalent in A (or else there is something up on msm which makes me think it's risky comparing Avs S, or Avs T as applicable, and causes me to go to Svs T (or Tvs S) as more safe - I'm starting to put T bogofs on Svs T now if APG is risking returning N/A).

But.. these items below, for example (an extract from my last Tvs S list) - are they really not available in A? (And, therefore, if they happen to be part of an A multibuy...??)
(Note: they may now be on a.com and msm.co.uk, as this Tvs S list was now some time ago.)
[Edit: check carefully - weren't Sains. offers due to end 2/7?:(]

A fair exchange I would say

lol, would not take much, the blady ones I planted into the ground grew that quick, they were like matches, then just bowed over and died/got munched. The ones in pots are still standing, just, but again, with planting them so late, they are growing too quickly. I really should stop talking to them.

Well tomorrow I'm going to take pics of the rogue ones that the birds kindly planted for me. They are doing way better than my little dwarf one that I planted myself
