    :hello:Morries don't sell loose parsnip do they?:rotfl::mad::mad:

    A lot of sorting out my private lists tonight, esp. as msm, in the last few weeks, has divided the hundreds of items I had per list into sections of 200 items each:(. I've decided to create new ones by taking checking items off the old ones and then putting them into properly reorganised sections, but it'll doubtless take ages. Not to worry - I'm the man for the task!:D:rotfl:

    A couple of items spotted for now - Quorn Fillets 312g, which seemed to be £1.99 A vs 99p M should now be £1.00 A vs 99p M, as A has gone onto £1 expensive r'back, still not 10% cheaper:D - should work out the same in the end, I suppose.

    And Holland's 4 pack pies - A £2.00 vs T £2.20. Not 10% cheaper there either, so it is Avs T (checking msm/msl as always to see that you are getting in A ones that are avail. in T etc.).

    Right, with me having 'too many lists', a little top-heavy on the lists, I've been lightly thinking whether to transfer one (section by section:(:rotfl:) into a private Word document or whether to post it on here - on the one hand it could clutter up the thread but, on the other, I suppose 'the more information the merrier'. Make of it what you will (or may) - it's the "M comparable" list (of over 1,000 items) - it's *not* a list of what to buy, but the items I decided, at any point, to be comparable Avs M. It's woefully incomplete - the APG may or may not agree with me - I never managed to get time to add items systematically onto it but instead they just went straight onto my lists on here each week and never into this! But..anyway. I suppose it may help to identify items which may be comparable on Avs M and then to check m.com to see if there is the same item or an equivalent still available and see whether it is favourable or unfavourable.

    May be a starting point of use for someone, for someone who has items in mind, to pick what they might be thinking of from the 'M comparable list', and then going to check m.com. I've decided I won't need to keep this list in future - once M goes onto msm there will be no need for it. I may as well free up my lists by deleting this one off and posting its items - in however incomplete form - onto here. So...stand by, possibly for the list in five separate parts. Ignore it or read at your leisure:rotfl:. M comparable not available to N Ireland.

    You do not need to register ecards before use. Store should treat them the same as any other Asda gift card!

    You can register your ecard here
    and check the balance here

    but it should not be necessary to do this before using it.


    thanks a lot my dds have them to so want to use them but rubbish shop..

    Hi does anyone know how to search for rsh on a windows phone on the O2 app please

    Search "all brands" without putting anything in the search field.

    Surprising how much stuff comes up when you do that, that is never highlighted normally.

    Dd1 had a friend over and i had to take all 3 girls to mcdonalds.

    I stayed strong and only pinched one chip!

    Time for chicken and salad for dinner !

    I'm having to wait to cook my salmon as I forgot to get it out of the freezer before I left this morning. :eek:

    I am absolutely starving. :(

    I pinched one crisp from DD3 earlier. :o

    I took mine to customer services and asked for it to be put on to a 'proper' gift card before I shopped - SA's are not familiar with them in my A's.

    If you let your salmon have a little swim in tepid water, it will soon defrost quite safely!:):)
