    Wait for a wee while to see if you womble the correct one - try this if you do not get the right one (send 2nd class). One per address and they have to receive it within 28 days of receipt.

    Patty, the closing date is the 1st of October. Also the price for the Simply dry is about £9.50 or £10.00.

    Not printed SSM coupons this month and just found there's a Pantene coupon for 75p and it's not store specific -why did I not find it yesterday?

    Wonder if offer still on tomorrow?

    You've not been checking the coupon thread :wall:

    There is a 50p fairy moc, also on offer in S :D
    Back to square one, no apg, no comment.

    So...now the shops have shut (in England/Wales), it's time for me to do some Morries updating:( (of last week's expired prices:mad::mad:).:o:o
    Sorry folks - not tardiness on my part, more it being a lovely day (I'm sure I'm therefore forgiven for not spending it here:j).

    Potential glitch (APG) coming below.

    Can't wait to see my Sains BM result tomorrow:D:j:j. Although I 'fell' for their 120 points WYS £30 (mere 60p), there was a reason though. I'd somehow managed to build up £10:eek: worth of Nectar points, from Adpoints, signing up to various things, points when a prev. BM didn't work as expected and bonus points offers. So the bill was a few pence over £30, 120 points, BM coupon £7.50 (should have been £10), Nectar point spend of £10 - paid £12.58. BM of £9.99 prints off out of the till. Best part was it was SS and till didn't accept the 120 pts coupon, called over a member of staff, who then also needed to approve the redemption of the prev. BM, and then they left - whilst I put in the £10 Nectar points spend, paid the balance and then quietly took away the £9.99 BM coupon without anyone noticing:rotfl::rotfl:.

    Good one!:D £30.08 (qualifier for the 60p in points), then Nectar reward spend takes me to £20.08 (just enough to qualify for the BM), BM £7.50 coupon does not take away from that, goes into BM (just a shade higher than £20) and comes out at £9.99: 1p short of the maximum!:j:D:D:rotfl:

    Later I went to Morries and spent nearly £40:eek:. A very good amount of stuff though for that price - quite good for under £40 (yes a few pence short of it but feels better!) as Halifax gave me a cashback offer of 20% back on my bank account when I spend at M.:j:beer: I didn't do a normal Morrisons shop therefore - well, all my Morrisons shops are now at Sada:rotfl:but instead shopped in M itself on whatever shop it was:rotfl::rotfl:. Would have made sense to buy the APG vs M items in M under that circumstance, except any that glitched on APG, as 20% cashback on spend better than any 10% from A. I got the good value non-comp M items though - and haven't done a Morries comparison shop today. Missed out on the fresh Pork Chops - 630g for just £2 in M - as they had all gone by early afternoon when I arrived. (That were missed out on here on my M list as well by me not getting round to it:( - but with all the glitching and the good weather...).

    The chops were in store though. When I got to the tills, next till along had a lady with 3 packs of them on the conveyor. So, stopped by a greedy customer who'd been there moments before I arrived - but at that price I can't say I blame them!!

    Right...now the potential glitch. Going back to M list belatedly* and just checking to see whether worth adding some items that didn't meet my high standard for inclusion. Started off from the beginning again, and checked msm for some soft drinks packs. Saw A now shot up to £3.00 on some in the very recent weeks. And - :mad::mad: each time I see an A price on MSM (I used to just check my list and go through msm with it, to see if better elsewhere than M and add to the appropriate list etc.), now, not only do we have to check signed in and signed out on msm (I admit I don't do that on every item), now when I see a price looking a bit high in A, I have to check a.com as well:mad::mad::(:mad: just in case a multi is missing. (Oh well, only one extra screen to have up in the background once I've googled and gone on to find a.com again.)

    And...guess what?? I've found they are part of a multi not showing on msm!

    There are over 3,000 mbuys on msm for me at the moment, so it looks like it's done its updating and these ones have been missed - moreover, they're showing A rising to £3 from a short time before today.

    Schweppes soft drinks (original and diet) 6x330ml are each £1.49 in M (supposed to be until 13/10) and no doubt will continue to be that tomorrow (in any event, tomorrow morning till around lunchtime the APG will still be on today's prices (from last Wednesday's collection)). Both the Lemonade and the Diet Lemonade cans pack say straight £3.00 on msm, but on a.com they are £3.00 and any 2 for £5.00:T, and M £1.49 on each!:rotfl::rotfl: Make of these pieces of information what you will.:D

    * I know it's been taking me nearly a week to catch up and new items, which have only just gone on offer and therefore likely to still be continuing on offer next week, not getting round to them till after Sunday close - I can only apologise - now doing it, though list might be expired, to help my check on Wednesday coming - I have been struggling and tardy, almost overwhelmed by the amount of information to update, but just about managing to stay on top of it, only understandable as there's more to my life in good weather:D:T.

    STOPTOBER! starts soon.

    Time to drink what's left in the fridge and lock the cellar door, giving key to a trustee.

    We got 30 days of misery coming up.

    So get used to the idea.

    We still got tommozo peeps! :beer::beer::beer::beer::beer:
