    Morries price collection will be done tomorrow and updated wednesday so it MIGHT continue yet

    Hmm... That's the theory, that's what they say in the T&Cs but I think they mean "updated by Wednesday" (my emphasis), in other words Tuesday onwards, but the whole lot completed by some point in the day on Wednesday. I'd still keep to Monday mornings!:rotfl: If I was going for it.

    Sada Extra long. Strong and absorbent @£2.20 compared favourably a while back, to about £1.25 Good quality. HTH

    Thanks I went for this against S or T waiting to see who it compares against.

    Our come round party last night was much fun :) we all ached quite a bit this morning but in a good way. The two year old had a fab time too, she didn't want to go to bed :( she was joining in with the dancing and singing along to loads of different songs.

    The best bit was when we were doing ghostbusters and on the singing where they sing " who you gonna call? Ghostbusters" bit, she was singing "busters" :D

    Spose you kinda had to be there to see how adorably sweet it was :)

    I'm told that when she got up this morning, she asked if she could play the dancing game :)

    Sounds like you had great fun qoc :) it's those magical moments isn't it

    I don't know if any of you remember but I don't have a good track record transporting bottles of fizzy pop. :o

    Did another coke shop today and stupidly as boot is full of mum's stuff for charity and 9 bottles from yesterday I put todays haul on back seat. :o

    One bottle fell off head first and exploded while I was driving had to pull over and get it out was going off like a fire extinguisher but not before soaking the carpet in the car. :mad:

    omg, did you get sprayed too? :cool: I bet you were taking the corners too quick and jumping on the brakes that did it
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    Yes it should be. Clover Original 1kg still £1.85 last Wednesday in M. I don't know what tomorrow's price will be. But, if you're hoping to beat the update...

    (Of course, that was where my big womble return got me out. They bought some Vodka that added about £1.50 to the APG (vs Mr T) but bought the other size of Clover that is £1 more expensive in T:eek:. Glad they bought 3 x the 4 pt milk though:T, along with other items that just happened to match the number required for offers in T.)

    Thanks Savvy, yes I aim to get to MrA before 9am, just going to see if there is anything else that I need (or want) that compares to Mr M. :beer:

    Compares to M at (what tomorrow will be) last week's prices (M prices from Wednesday just gone) rather than whatever the prices are in M tomorrow.

    I think this will continue to work tomorrow (don't shop late in the day though) as long as you also check the receipt the same day. Don't wait on it and, ideally, I'd be checking the receipt before midday (which implies shopping before 9am) although it may well continue through till 4 or 5pm, getting more risky obviously.

    Sunday may well be the last day of M offers but that's irrelevant. It's a glitch so it hasn't picked up M's offer correctly in any event. The bacon has been on 2 for £4 in M for 'ages'. Even if the same pricing applies in M tomorrow, doesn't mean the glitch will continue though (and indeed it's unlikely to continue). It's specific to last Wednesday's price collection, which is used all weekend and still applies into Monday (even on offers that have then expired in M itself) - applies until the price collection, done on Monday, gets updated into the system. That will, almost doubtless, change the M price and pick up the correct M price:( (or even miss the M mbuy:(:(). What you want is to beat the updating of the new price collection into the system. You're wanting the current price collection (last Wednesday's) to still apply and for the price collection done during tomorrow not to be updated into the system yet when you check the receipt. The Monday price collection probably starts filtering through from Tuesday onwards. That said, I still won't risk Monday night!

    I won't be able to shop again until Mon night so looks like no more bacon for me :(
