    Hello and, after this morning's rush, still unfortunately continuing to some extent - just so much to sort out and almost half the weekend now gone:mad: - don't worry, I'll get it sorted and any attempts to query with me will only achieve the opposite of their intended effect - will only slow me down and cause me to have to deal with the questions thus making it even more ... anyway, let's forget that!!:) So no offence intended against everyone, just that you'll help me most if you...back off!!:rotfl::rotfl: Many thanks for reading!!

    A serene opportunity to pause and say hello and thanks for the new thread!!:T:T I like the name - I saw it and thought which of the three is me. Then I thought - I'm all three of these things! Is anyone else good, mad and lovely: or is it just me?!:)

    I perhaps ought to draw attention to the Hall's Haggis vs Morries! That's £1.67 or any 2 for £3.00 in A. I've been waiting for several months for this to go down in price (only avail. in A and M), but sadly it's always been much more expensive in M than the £1.50 equivalent on buying two in A. Until this week!:):) Now £1.50 in M and therefore Avs M. Only need to buy one:T. Perhaps you can find a trigger item to put with it on the other half of that '2 for £3', although whether it would be worth adding that item (if avail.) or not I don't know!

    me too, nobody here likes smoked bacon :(

    I will use this womble to buy some coke tomorrow and try with the unsmoked bacon.

    another womble giving £3.22, might give msl another try with the vodka on this one ;)

    It`s nice to be important, but its more important to be nice.
    The world is full of people throwing stones at us. Its what you do with them that counts. Build a wall or build a bridge.

    Umm.. but sometimes, there are those who delete the filler items from their posts and I'm not fond of that as the fillers themselves might be useful. That said I more often like to bury things in a list so they don't draw too much attention to what to buy!

    It is good to see a good old fashioned glitch working again after a few weeks of "drought" (admittedly we were spoilt for a few weeks with Snakes etc!) - just had my Diet Coke APGs through and emailed to myself to lock in the vouchers :).

    Messed up on a couple of items (including my 5 Diet Cokes rather than 6 in one shop :mad:) - STILL beating myself up about them despite better than free Diet Coke on a "few" others :o. Ah well, a few more Snakes and I MIGHT get over it :).
