    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    I got some in pound land or something similar. It comes with double sided tape/Velcro type stuff, and you just cut it to fit

    Thanks for that, I'm off to Ipswich tomorrow so will grab them some :beer:
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    Just been looking through my shopping results more thoroughly.

    Meant to highlight this one....
    4 x ASDA Ginger Beer (1L) £5.50 £1.50

    Note, if you buy 4 it compares to less at T's. I got 2 for myself and 2 for my Dad, so I hope it's nice! :p

    Also, not sure where this price match came from, i'm a little puzzled by it actually. Anyone know where this comparison comes from? I thought I was gonna get them compared 3 for £10, but looking now, that appears to be against S's, so I put them in the wrong pile of shopping against T's, but it's a good job I did. ;)
    3 x ASDA Butcher's Selection Whole Chicken (1.35Kg)£12.00 £9.30
    And the A's chickens I got, were all actually just over 1.5kg, but still fell into the £4 each price size.
    :D:D:D


    I pointed out the ginger beer yesterday

    :j:jBoth shops, from 'closing time' this afternoon worked brilliantly. Hartley pots not glitching, but wasn't going for a glitch on those anyway (believe it or not!:D) so got what I was expecting.

    Another pack of Smarties cones used here as well! I'm glad they're the ones that aren't appearing: they go v.v. quickly in this household, last set of 4 already down to 2 - so 6 now left (including the 4 from today) should last us:rotfl:...hopefully...:(:rotfl::D

    Why £2.07?

    Quorn Lamb Style working a treat (no glitch, they are the real prices). That was the 'riskier' shopping - I was geared up for an argument over the Refresher Bars too, but won't be having that argument now:rotfl:. I thought these were returning with 12p for M, even though I have them in two M stores at 10p. Must have picked up another one. Why is the "White Mice" (on the first of the shops) called "Mice"?? There's only one "mouse" in the pack!:(:rotfl:;):) (You can see I was hoping the cooked ham would go back to comparing against the smaller one at 98p - and was carefully placing it in the right shop:D. Did the banana splits too:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.)

    Hi everyone. Hope you're all enjoying the sun.
    Did a flying A shop, mainly to pick up whoopsied meat and veg. My timing was good today, all down to 10p and 20p, sa said nothing had sold on the reduced section cos everyone was at the beach. :rotfl:
    While I was there I found a shopping list I'd shoved in the back of my purse, with comparisons on it. What I didn't realise in my rush, was that it was two lists, one below the other on the page.
    I gaily collected all the items for a Sains comparison, went through the till using my mocs and an apg, remembered to separate all the whoopsied stuff from the comparison shop, and felt really pleased with myself. I got to the car and was loading the bags when the penny dropped:eek::eek::eek: OMG. I got out the list again and had a quick count up, and realised I was going to get a big apg.
    In fact, it is a very big apg:eek::eek::eek:. I just got it back, and printed it. DH is delighted, but I'm worried now about using it. I will have to go to the A's I don't frequent too often, cos I got trouted big time by the teenage manager in my local a while back.

    The Mullers still seem to be working. I bought 10, and they show on the apg as all 10 at 68p each, but my till receipt shows that the 6 4 £3 and the 10 4 £4 discounts came off. :D

    For those who like the electric air freshener units, the Air Wick Filter and Fresh, Aqua and Linen ones are £15.98 in a and £8 in Sains.

    The Nivea Age Defying Q10 hand cream 100ml is £5 in A and £1.95 in Sains.

    The Cif Easylift wipes, lemon or ocean fresh 50 pack are £2 each in A, but £2 bogof in Sains.

    The Purina One adult 3 kg chicken & rice, and the salmon and rice are £14.58 in A and £10 in Sains. HTH someone.:D

    I stopped off at my local plant nursery on my way back, and they had made all the plants bogof:j:j:j, so I stocked up. What with the groceries, and the plants and hanging baskets, there was barely room for me in the car. I resorted to opening the sun roof and hanging a big geranium from inside the edge of it. Drove home at 20mph:rotfl::rotfl:.

    Forgot to say happy birthday to clucky, hope you've had a lovely day hun.

    Off to water the garden now, see you later.

    Really? This is a glitch:T, it's comparing incorrectly against M's version which is 500g (and outside the 10% weight therefore) which is on special at 90p and being adjusted for weight on that.

    Coming a little late unfortunately (but that can't be helped). May well work into tomorrow - Monday's collections now not updated to Wednesday!:D (So stuck on this result till then.) So maybe good to go... (If only I'd have known and not done all my M shopping today.) Therefore... remove the 500g Can't Believe from Tvs M as 400g in A (vs M) is much cheaper! I think this will only work on this specific version of ICB. Many thanks - may try tomorrow, with another M shop. (Only shame there is my As do not stock any KTC tomatoes. Not even out of stock, not stocked at all:(!)

    What a goody on the ICBINB though!:j:T:T savvy sal - many thanks:T:A.

    Will do. You've hit a good one there!:D:cool:

    We have some good results coming out vs Morries (no doubt to the unfortunate annoyance of our N.I. folks:(). In fact some good results vs S and vs T too!!:T:T:j:j That last shop - vs W - came back with W entirely N/A:rotfl::rotfl:. Not planned that way, just turned out like that, and the APG now suggesting that none of the items are available in W, which is more than likely true. (Not that I'd ever compare any of these against N/A - except the Strawberry Bar:D. Just checking now. Good - the Strawberry Bar is N/A in T and S:).)

    And we've got an exciting join between News Channel & BBC ONE now - with Clive Myrie!!:D:rotfl::rotfl: (After the tennis and the motor-racing.) To FC.:) I quite like it - and very interesting - as Clive Myrie is more of a News Channel presenter than a BBC One news one! So it's one of those little interesting oddities again (shades of Nestle Cones packs for me it seems - similar to those in that respect).

    Andy Murray now top story!!:):T Well deserved!:cool::beer:
