    Can you just use a code or do you have to show it on your phone?


    Usually you have to show people the code on the phone there and then.

    For those wanting to use up some of their puff pasty.... use the burgers to make

    Spicy meat pasties:)

    Lightly fry some chopped spring onions, a shallot, a clove of garlic and parsley in olive oil. Once the onions are soft, stir in the mince and add chili powder to your taste. Cook for another ten minutes, or until the mince is thoroughly browned, breaking up any lumps with a wooden spoon. Roll out some puff pastry on a floured surface and cut into squares. Place some of the mince mixture on one square and cover it with another square, rolling the edges together so they won't come apart while cooking. Repeat the process until you run out of puff pastry or mince mixture. Brush the top of the pies with a beaten egg and bake in the oven on medium heat for 20 minutes, or until golden.

    Cant find the bledy carver ham in my a's :mad:
    Cant find the right burgers in my t's :mad:

    Im sure there must be a lurker that clears the stuff out before I get there :eek::eek:

    Morning all :D

    I'm convinced that my As see me coming before I do my Morries comp. shopping in there and remove anything cheaper in Ms! That's all I can think to explain an empty shelf space where a quite expensive product should have been.

    New phone line:) - so, in theory, let the fun begin!:j I think I'll pop into Ms tomorrow (I need something from there anyway) as I'm missing stuff even if it's on m.com. I don't necessarily see it there and missing the overall picture, so I think I might pop around M (just for myself - although if there's the odd item really special, I'll mention it on here whenever I can). Also my saved competitor lists on msm (which sometimes contained 900 or 1,000 items, e.g. all Avs Ts that I had found) are now limited to 200 items and have been split into several sections each - so, where I used to have "TescoAPG", I now have "TescoAPG_1", "TescoAPG_2", etc. So perhaps not as easy!

    Will need some rethinking and perhaps reorganisation, for example splitting into shop aisles otherwise it's just going to get disorganised and duplicate items on different lists etc. I've thought of deleting the whole lot and starting again (they've not been updated for a while, but the same items go back on and on) but like a hoarder I can't bear to chuck information in case it later becomes useful. You can bet whichever bit I delete permanently, I'll need again as soon as I've done that!

    My next shopping is due to be Avs M - but I might switch to a different comp. if there proves to be more I need(/want:eek:) on there. Vs Sains. particularly wasn't that good for me, already got the items I needed and just the same offers droning on and on - I need a good refreshing of offers I think at both S and T.

    I think m.com is more useful if you are looking for specific products or types of items to put on a list but, if you need the overall picture, to me it's easier to walk through the store than spend ages trying to search and find stuff on m.com. Hopefully, tomorrow will stop me being caught out again, for the rest of this week anyway. Roll on M on msm!

    Good evening:).

    I was thinking of these.. but mine where more like, wrap a slab of the burger thingymebob in pastry, egg it and bake it! Then I thought it may not be cooked through and I may give everyone food poison and I would have to look after them!! I think I may follow your recipe!! lol

    It's much better today thanks Tiger, just back from walking slowly around Ts, an Elite Angel came and picked me up. :T

    Thought I would really be hobbling but I managed much better than I thought as long as I don't move it a certain way. ;)

    So I have 10p xmas cards and gift tags and few other bits too. :D

    And now finally Dodo and Truffle Hunter have met, a nice Elite meet in the caf! after a bit of scanning. ;) Oh and guess who we bumped into on the way out......Nictrinwyn :rotfl:

    The south west coven is formed. :eek:

    Witches, the lot of you. :rotfl: Can vouch that TS is a lovely witch though.;)
