    Now I could be very very wrong as I have no idea how MSM works nor what difference it makes when things show as logged in or logged out but .... I've had a quick look and from the list above, I cannot see the following 4 flavours listed in Sada and when I look in Sains they show as N/A against A.

    1 x Muller Light Mandarin Yogurt Fat Free N/A
    1 x Muller Greek Style Corner Yogurt with Rhubarb N/A
    1 x Muller Light Fat Free Rhubarb Yogurt N/A
    1 x Muller Fruit Corner Blueberry Yogurt N/A

    As well as that I cannot see 'Muller Rice Limited Edition' so my redneck theory is that because there are 5 flavours not listed on MSM but they are available in store, the APG machine doesn't see that you have bought any offer hence the 68p comparison.

    Just a thought and I'm sure someone will be along to prove me wrong :p

    That's the theory I was headed towards.
    CoT said that the mandarin one showed up for them on MSM though

    Don't mention schools and uniforms to me - open evening last night and handed out kit form - jackets £85!!!!

    Also wanted £50 for locker and £45 for months lunch card and had to be back by the latest today!!!!!

    There is a second hand uniform sale next week but my son is at his dads that day who is saying he doesnt think he will let him go as doesnt want his son is hand me downs!!!!********** ( insert whatever rude words you feel!) This from the man who hasn't paid me maintenance for the last 5 months as no job but is on 2 holidays .......

    are these privet school or state schools, ?

    im shocked at the prices ppl pay , i have 2 dd at primary uniform isnt compulsory but i send them in plain uniform (tescos and mark and sparks and handmade cardigens for free from granny and grannys friends;)) also charity shops for logo cardigen and jumper i found once;) logo ones are 7.00 jumper and 4 t-shirt u alsoget there initials sown in with the price (i can do this my self;)

    and even the comprehensive school isnt that strict they say u have to have uniform but it can be plain ,

    blue jumper white polo shirt and black trousers/skirt you can get logo ones and i think a jumper is 12.50 and 7.50 t--shirt but u dnt see many in it or if they are its normal handed down from older sibbling or charity shop ,

    p.e is shorts white or black and same for top

    im lucky i think , i find it so hard to justify the cost of the uniforms some u have to buy if in a state school as the kids are there to learn :(

    if private school i kinda think it comes with the school still not nice cost thou but more prepared for it??

    3Dogs sneaks back into the room after a long period of lurking to say a big thank you to Mad and to the rest of you for your kind messages



    Thank you so much Mad, I do so love that photo of my Alan :j It so says who he was :D

    Sorry but I haven't felt like posting for a while now. I have actually been catching up on all the messages from you guys last year and have been in tears reading them. Tears of sadness, but tears from feeling the warmth coming through from them too. You really are such a special bunch of people, and as I said last year, I love you all

    I was still reading the thread of course, but, finding myself getting so far behind, I decided to lurk without being logged in, so without thanking posts, and finally, as I hoped, caught up this morning

    I am still struggling with my knee and been mostly doing online shopping, but I have been out a few times to car boot, etc, though I find it very tiring getting about. I have my appointment to see specialist at Kings Lynn on 5th August but before then I have a trip down to visit the lads and Kit in the New Forest then they are coming up North with me to stay at my niece's house while she and her family are away camping. So, looking forward, but as Vanilla Twist says, spending today looking back to the times before Mr 3Dogs got ill and all the happy and funny times we shared

    I got some lovely flowers from my Big Sis this morning together with some lovely orchids from Alan's Dad & family :D

    Thank you for posting today. You and Mr 3 dogs were such a big part of the thread. Enjoy your happy memories of Alan today and always.
    Please don't leave it so long next time, good luck with the knee
    on Aug 5th.

    Off to my sons open evening for high school, he is in year 5 at the minute, why do they do it so early, he will have forgotten where the classrooms are by the time he starts, and no doubt we will be given a list of uniform that is needed and the huge price list to go with it.
