Cryptic update for LFAB :cool:


You did right saving your data for tomorrow. All pretty much predictable and unexciting tonight.
Andy Hamilton won......Vera was happy
Lewis won ( I wish there was a rolling eyes smiley ) smug :mad:
MVG v wright was ok. Wright had orange hair tonight :eek: MVG won :cool:
To be fair the last match is by far the most exciting of the night. My money was...still is, on Chizzy but J Caven is giving him a run for his money.Currently 11-10 with both missing doubles for fun.
Thought I'd better update now in case I fall asleep
Same time, same place tomorrow :cool: ( Daily record because it's mid-week)
EDIT: Chizzy won.....I love being right

Thanks for the new thread mad :T
Thank you to vanilla twist for being a superstar
Off for a catch up, I could be gone quite a while

I am indeed well.:)
Carryovers now there (on M list).
What's disappeared? Whole Mackerel no longer there - couldn't find Avocados or Nectarines in M this week, so removed those, the Savers 20 Milk Chocolate Digestives appear no longer to be produced - although it looks like other biscuits comparable to the A S/P range may have gone back down in price at M (back on Avs M?) - Kipling Viennese Whirls removed - they've now been moved to a part in the store where the other cakes, that are on £1 each, are - so I'm assuming the Viennese are now £1.00 and no longer 65p:(.
SP Chicken Roll 400g - M's equivalent has increased in price to £1.06, but the A product can't be seen now on MSM (when I've looked just when logged out at present) so it's been removed anyway.
Some of the canned veg. has been taken off. I can't find Savers Soft Cheese, M no longer appear to produce Savers Bath Foam - so that's now Avs T and S only (at the last look a week ago). M's price on the equiv. to the SP Frozen Sausages (20 pack) has increased - so beware! Wall's Classic Magnum/Almond/White offer has ended:(, so that's mainly it!
Some new things, that may be on the list later, lots of pasta and table sauces checked (for potential T fuel) - I've now found the Light and the Extra Light 430ml Hellmann's squeezy mayonnaise, in addition to the original that I always had:T - although for what it's worth as T PP might not pick up what I have. Too much to mention here but Heinz's Sticky or Classic BBQ 480g £1 in M:T; Heinz Sweet Chilli Tom. Ketchup 342g £1; Baxter's Sliced Beetroot 710g £1.50 (all items that whose prices at those levels wouldn't normally be got as SP versions around half the price). Bavaria Lager Shandy (6x330ml) £1.50 in M (not as good as A's £1.00 in itself, but may be MOCs/cond spends):T. Vimto Still 500ml 80p (until 1/9) - again, too expensive in the absence of other things, such as MOCs.
McV Jaffa Cakes 24 £1.09:T and McV Fruit Shortcake 200g 54p. Again, McV 24 Jaffa Cakes have been £1.00 before elsewhere, and McV fruit shortcake, own brands are normally cheaper but you may have MOCs.
Baxter's Chutney 312g £1. Branston Small Chunky or Original Pickle 520g £1.35 (until 4/8):T. M may not necessarily be cheapest - I've been unable to check prices elsewhere yet!
Cirio Passata Rastica Crushed Tomato 680g £1.39 in M:T.
Tropicana 1.75L Orange Smooth or Original Orange £2.50.
Beware - Danios 85p!:eek: So do not switch to A vs M if T's offer ends.
And loads loads more.
In my view, Sugar Puffs 625g is not worth getting (unless you see a SEL of £1.49;)) - it's now doubled in price in T to £2.98 and is still stubbornly at £2.98 in M.
Cesar dogfoods 150g are on 65p any 7 for £4 in M.
Sentinell Fab Cond 5L still on RTC in M £2.98:T. Went OOS a week or two ago, now back and on reduced - with the stated aim of trying to "clear" it all again or so we are to believe.:)
Ok - that's all I can manage for now - I'll see you again quite soon!!:D:):)0 -

I managed to surprise even myself by how little I spent in M tonight:). Tonight's story of the great 'money-saving public':rotfl::rotfl: in M - man, woman and young infant in pram tonight, in the chilled aisle. Woman picked up two:eek: Tropicana Kids packs (those tiny ones that go down to £1 each in price), saying "there's only these - two for five pound". Man replied: "Yep, okay."
:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:And then they walked off, screaming kid in tow. £2.50 a pack:eek::eek: and buying two at that, to me, overprice each!! Don't think I would call it "okay"!:rotfl: But...each to their own opinion I suppose!
Okay, or otherwise, ... I'm outta here now!!:D:):):)0 -
Im off to bed. I have the builders arriving first thing. Im having 2 rooms knocked through to make 1 big bedroom and a bathroom door moved to make it accessible from the new big room. Im also having the ceilings replaced. So much brick dust and builders bums :eek:
I have bought 2 for £1 (disposable) mugs for the builders tea. I can't stand having strangers drink from my mugs
:o:o I won't tell you what having strangers using my loo does to me
:rotfl::rotfl:
Gnight :wave:0 -
