I should have bought that ham on my Morries-comp. shop later in the week:

Compares against Morries (as I well know, with deep embarassment). Rolling around. Note the price the Sunflower Spread is comparing to against M currently. (Can't guarantee it will stay like that, as I don't know whether it's been updated or not, but it may do.)
Note also the infuriating typo on the Cheese Pasty on msm & the APG system. :rotfl: Well - not actually really infuriating: I can live with it. No need to buy two Elastoplast packs, but with T's price, why not?
Alright - just to assure you I'm as fine and well as I could be, still on (my own!) dose of the tablets - don't try this at home folks - and certainly not totally without aches (the odd one here is very mild now though) - just a little bit achy, nothing on any scale like what it had been, and tablets seem to be working and working far better. Touch wood I'm on the mend!
Okay - getting very staid and boring now, no doubt, with nothing of interest now to say, I'm just on having done the job of posting the comps. and goodnight all! Best wishes to FC as well, I was just catching up, noticed one of your replies from the end of the last thread, which I may well contact you on (nothing tonight though), and been lurking, mostly on the tail end of the last thread collating those items I posted into my M list offline. All done now, so everything set for Wednes. yet again!! Shall I revolve my life around Wednes???!! Or, no, I think I'll do something tomorrow night (not related to shopping!). Didn't get any Herby Pots tonight as my A was (frown) out of stock - they had only the wrong New Pots with Herbs & Butter and I wasn't having any of those!!
Didn't get any S&Gs as not enough ladies around our house to be giving them to, I sort of don't really use these items myself!!:D I thought why end up spending an extra 18p I didn't need to (...to which I might well now add... when I could lose almost that instead on buying the ham tonight:( ).
Goodnight!! Enjoy the rest of tonight and enjoy tomorrow - don't buy any ham vs T!!! :rotfl::wave::wave:0 -

I am planning some Duracell batteries tomorrow on a t's shop, they are £3.50 a pack use two £3.00 coupons (supersavvy) so cost £1.00 and if they compare sad have them 2 for £5.00 so a £1 pp means free batteries:j
ps I have printed more than 2 coupons and they have all got different ID barcodes;)
Edit : Actually think the pp will be £7.00 v £5.00 so that means a £2.00 pp A £1.00 profit
They probably won't compare. Never have in the past AFAIKApparently, everybody knows that the bird is [strike]the word[/strike] a moorhen0 -

And how knowledgeable your fellow posters are.
Yes we certainly are. I remember when oh recommended this site in 2006 after hearing about on Radio 2. I nearly did not bother. He is a climber and walker and his site is UK Climbing and they have quite good forums too. When we first lived apart he was very much a novice to computing and used to get upset by trolls posting but he soon learnt to ignore them.
Hope I did not sound patronising in my last post as i did not mean too. Now need some ideas for an APG tommorow as I am taking DD for her counselling appointment where there is a good Asda?0 -

But... frown on the Cooked Ham, I thought it was still available in T (and S). Checked msm.co.uk on arrival home (had to prepare my shopping much earlier) and saw showing only A now with a price.
