Make it an extra large margherita and you are talking. I am not one for sweet things. I am sweet enough as I am.

Enterprise well jel re: your neighbours. I wish I could have some normal ones too.

Do you live on the other side of my neighbours?? There's a crack on the outside of the house where they slam the door so hard. They can't hear just how hard they are slamming it :mad:

Sounds a bit like my neighbours. We complained a few times a few years and the stupid a$$ father said "It's not us, it must be ghosts or something". Errrrr!

Worst thing is we can't slam our doors back as they are on the other side of the house, not adjacent to them! :(

All of mine have been bought new. I certainly haven't spent £100k on them :eek::eek:

Probably about £500 over the years at the most. I have expensive tastes but a tight purse :rotfl:

Thankyou for going out and spending your time and effort collecting. If all we can do is donate to make sure people in our own country dont go hungry so be it. xx

Woohoo

new thread and a cheese glitch already!!! (but probably only in Scotland because none of the sassenachs can see this online or in store)

Buy 1 of the following Galloways cheese at £3.50/2 for £5


and any one other thing on the 2 for £5 that compares well with another supermarket

For example I bought the following on an AvT shop:

1 x Seriously Strong Vintage Cheddar (350g)£4.93£2.50

APG of £2.68 on a £5 spend.

Not earth shattering but timely as a lot of people seem to have run out or be close to running out

Hi folks - I'm back!:) Catching up, including replying, then trying to sort out that M list. May also get a shop done in the middle of it all if any urgent glitches come up:rotfl::D.

I don't know if I can extend the Scotland-only cheese glitching to elsewhere.

First, I'll try Wales. I've had a thought about this (the Galloway, although on msm.co.uk in Scotland, not appearing on the comparison because it is a 'regional' product). Wasn't there some Pembrokeshire cheese that others, those of you in S Wales, can see but I can't? Does that fail to appear as well? Therefore, in Wales, that Pembrokeshire cheese (or one of those Pembrokeshire cheeses) that none of the rest of us can see, plus the Seriously Strong Vintage vs T's £2.50?

Could this be extended further though? What about, for example, the Wensleydale Real Yorkshire Cheese? I mentioned that the other day - as £3.00 in A vs M at £2.99. Not a very good comparison... but isn't this cheese also a regional one (it's not showing for me logged out on MSM but only shows when logged in)? I have found it on msm, because I happen to live in the area of the country that does have this cheese, and I also found in my local Morrisons's because of this reason. I wonder though - maybe the cheese doesn't even appear on the APG at all, let alone compare vs M at £2.99.

In which case... if you live in Yorkshire/the Midlands/North West England/parts of the country where the Wensleydale Creamery cheese may be stocked, then will you find that 1 Wensleydale Creamery Real Yorkshire cheese (350g) - it's in the 2 for £5.00 in A - plus 1 Seriously Strong Vintage may get it to compare vs T at £4.93 vs £2.50?

I'm not on about all types of 'regional cheese'. For example, CBY Cheshire Cheese or Red Leicester or Double Gloucester are clearly examples of 'regional' cheese but (as far as I know) they are available across the country - I'm talking about the more specific types of cheese, only sold in certain areas, such as the Pembrokeshire that I can't see as I am not in South Wales, maybe those will not appear on APG comparisons???:D

I do know that not all 'regional' or 'local' products fail to appear on the APG (although indeed I sometimes have the opposite problem - getting them to appear on there when I am trying to reach the 8 minimum) but perhaps, with some of these locally-stocked cheeses, as they say, "why not give it a go?".
