Hi there - Oetker Ristorante pizzas on £1.49 in M until 5th January:T:j:j. I nearly did a little jig in the store and then almost abandoned the rest of the price collection (memorisation, whatever it's called) when I saw this.
Oh, hello, good evening by the way!:):) I know I felt last time was going to be the last price thingy in Mr M but I couldn't stop going could I? So, yes I did do this one today and perhaps the final one will be on Friday (if I get time), that'll take us through till 10 January when I hand over the baton to M's brilliant, bright new website. I completed my journey round store earlier and you'll perhaps need to know what to put with the pizza. Note that only certain ones are stocked by M?:think:
Of course need to wait a few days on these items:
So, with the Frijj milkshakes at 50p in Mr A, it's time to go for...
...the Yazoo milkshakes instead:rotfl:, on comp. vs M!:rotfl::rotfl:
Hopefully they will pick up the price and do so correctly. M is 50p. Slightly lower volumes (472ml/475ml) but, after the 10%, should work out very slightly cheaper. That said, even at 50p (or 50p less 10%), milkshakes are quite expensive aren't they? Considering it's just 500ml (or less), yet you can get 2.27 litres of milk for a pound (or 90p comparing the 1% fat version vs Sains. hopefully). I wonder if we can just get some milk and put some flavouring in it ourselves, cheaper?
Kipling Viennese Whirls back on 65p:rotfl: (someone thinks M really wants to sell them permanently at that price) - I did remember the end date when I was in store, now - can I remember? Think it's 27 January, not sure - not relevant anyway. Kellogg's Cracker Crisps 93p. Chicken Tonight 500s 88p. SP Bran Flakes should, in due course, revert to comparing vs 88p for M, since M has now put its price back to where it was. But not back as much as to 77p that it was three or so years ago - neither has anywhere else though. Pantene Shampoos/Conditioners 360/400ml on £1.89.
However, quite a bit of inconsistent pricing in the store tonight (next time, Friday 3rd, I'm going to use a different store). The Pantenes clearly on the gondola at £1.89 but, in the usual run of the aisle, SELs showing full price. If I were the APG, I would return full price due to the inconsistency!
Give me a bit of time and I'll amend the current M list. Off Nescafe Gold Blend refill 300g and onto Nescafe Original Refill 150g. I'm removing the Sanexes, the Old El Paso will go too, as will something else that I'll remember as soon as I see it on there. I'm putting the Taboo Original Vodka back onto the list, as I have 'decided' it is £5 for M until 5th January. That 'decision' over its pricing made after seeing the SEL by it saying as much!
I haven't bothered with any wines though, as none of them (even at £4.99) work out as good as previous T wine glitch 'prices'. It probably costs them £1 to make the wines that sell at a fiver anyway. Despite this, I might put some Sherry onto the list at £6.99 though. The vagaries of the list and its pricing sometimes.:)0 -
Well done, a lovely end to your year. Hope you get your health sort too
I did not participate was too late anyway but just loving all the genuine happiness for those that got stuff. Nice

So when's the next glitch?
I've left it too late to do anything for New Year (and I'm kinda over it tbh) so I'll probably be glitch hunting!Debt free 6th December 2014

So many "lurker" names on the non-list. Would have been good if some of them made the effort to be around instead of only popping up to add themselves to a list
Lots of noobs around too, so :hello: and welcomestick around, you'll have fun if nothing else
Off to have a good cry now:(:(:(:D:D:D:p0 -
