    Hello again - I'm glad it's the weekend!:j:beer: Although for some people, with troubled home lives, being at work actually provides a break.

    Catching up and lots of leisure-time 'work' to do, both here and at home - sometimes housework can be more stressful and long-winded than work work, though I ain't stressing about it! Quarter past nine:eek: - gosh is that the time?? You only have to go out before you arrive back home and that's the evening gone again.

    Anyway... in reply to this, Sains. bananas are fairtrade and therefore non-comparable - this is one of the specific examples used on the APG website.

    The reason the Braeburn apples packs are N/A is because Sains. do not have Braeburn Apples in packs that are within 10% either side of 750g. Even if they did, you'd have to find Sains. ones that are all fixed weight, i.e. all weighed the same and that weight would need to be within +/-10% of 750g, as those A ones are fixed weight (all packs are 750g). If Sains ones were run on a variable scale, e.g. some packs 700g, some 740g, some 800g, i.e. in other words, sold by weight, they would be non-comparable. Sains don't have any that are fixed weight and lie within the weight range for comparison.

    The Brown Onions packs in Sains. are 1kg, whereas those in A are 1.1kg. So the Sains price has been adjusted to take account of the fact that you are getting a heavier pack in A. If looking on the A side of tmsm, the prices for the rivals can relate to products that are 50% either way from the A price. In other words, down from half the size to up to double the size. Additionally, prices on msm.co.uk are not adjusted for weight, but those on the APG are. The APG site does also expressly state this. HTH.

    Looking back it looks like I bought the wrong mash also JF is £2 at Asda which seems expensive for a small packet that I can't make any use of. Oh well I will hopefully do better next time.

    Looks like it's going to proper chuck it down tonight. Totes grey sky outside and it's quite cool as well. Woohoo.

    I asked last week if a Samsung Galaxy S3 would make noises/send a text when an email was received if I had a Hotmail account as opposed to a Google mail account, and one kind soul said it would. Could you maybe tell me how I go about doing that? Thanks in advance.

    Off out in a bit, so have fun all you party animals. ;)
