    Hmmm, interesting:).

    Not done as badly as I thought. The YOO Ham has compared vs M at £1 (I thought that might go N/A, despite showing the £1 for M on msm.co.uk, due to the item being a new item in Mr A. I was assuming that items new to Mr A might not have been collected in Mr M yet and need 'approval' from msm before they can be compared but perhaps they still collect the Morries price even if (previously) they had nothing to link it up to?).

    Avoid the Medium FR Eggs though. They are showing at 97p for M on msm (that is incorrect, as m.com shows a higher price). As msm had that 97p on it, I thought that might have reflected the APG instore collected price and gone through to msm and that the online scan (for msm.co.uk) hadn't overriden it on that item. However, APG has higher price!

    9 items on your bill qualify for comparisonASDALogoWhite.gif Morrisons

    0.98 x ASDA White Cabbage by Weight per kg£0.59£0.58 (:question:) - I may be a week late buying this.
    1 x Nestle Milkybar White Chocolate Dessert (4x70g)£1.98£1.00

    1 x Ye Olde Oak Ham (300g)£1.68£1.00

    1 x ASDA Chosen by You Diet Pink Lemonade (2L)£0.42N/A
    Comparison total (compared products only)£10.48£6.78

    Spag Loops still (technically) glitching - unless the price collectors have M Savers loops/hoops in their stores. I can't find them (only the Saver Spaghetti in Tom Sc - both have comparisons to prices of 16p). Msm says N/A for M on the Spag Loops - so that 'glitch' may go once APG switches to using the online prices as taken from m.com and showing on msm. I assume it might be next week - but don't know as Mr A could decide otherwise (APG T&Cs still say instore collection but it's early days) - I suspect APG price collection was done on Wednesday and data on APG is from that. M's prices were uploaded to msm sometime on Thursday early hours, so not yet being used in the APG. Perhaps the next regular collection, when that was due this coming Monday, perhaps they will switch at that point to the new online info. Unfortunately, it'll see quite a number of items going N/A vs M (partic. in the SP range) as they aren't yet married up to each other properly on msm. A range of items, partic. in the fresh bakery area, are also not on m.com*. Ironic when it was supposed to be M offering delivery on fresh produce! If so many are missing, perhaps A will decide to keep commissioning the manual collections.

    Bananas may go N/A as even they don't show on m.com:eek::(. The price histories are clearly the instore collection.

    *And thus going N/A on msm.co.uk even though (for the moment) they are being picked up from the instore collection.

    Did you like it?

    I was probably drinking at least 3 bottles of vodka a week!:o:eek::eek::eek:

    Strangely I have found it quite easy to do without, but I am now quite addicted to fiery ginger beer!:D

    I will also be continuing through February.:)

    Yes it was nice. :)

    I know mum sometimes puts Baileys in my coffee instead of milk that should be used to think she ran out couple year ago.

    Hi again, told you I'd not be able to keep up, missed the last 150ish pages. Hope everyone's well.
    I've a week until my next hospital appointment and being stuck at home is really doing my head in :( I've missed so many glitches and 1p items I'm getting withdrawal symptoms :rotfl: the only thing I'm grateful for is I'm at home and not still in hospital, at least I've tv and Internet to distract me while I'm awake although that's not very often due to the new meds I've been taking. I wake about 8am to take my first, sleep until 12pm, take my next lot about 1pm and sleep until at least 3pm, take older meds in the evening and manage to stay awake from then until 11pm but then the daily cycle begins again (not too good but trying to cut down on the new pain meds that are causing this is giving me evenings with DS so that's good).

    Afternoon :)

    Till spit heaven in T today - churning out all kinds of cs mocs and vouchers. Worth buying a couple of small items on each card through the manned tills - this morning I got £4 off £30, £6 off £40 and £7 off £50 - so with the £10pp that's £27 off £50 before I think about any other mocs etc :beer::j Haven't done a "big shop in T's for a while ....

    And I caught a good price on OJ from a womble that someone posted a few days ago - would love to find the post to thank the OP. Have in mind it was savvy sal but can't find it now :o T's 4 x 1L packs usually £3.40 - going through at £1.70 a pack :beer: Stocked up as we get through a lot of this and this is much cheaper than their EV one. Same price for the 4 x 1L apple juice.

    Hope everyone gets a taste of the sunshine that has finally returned today - enjoy the rest of your Saturday :)

    It is not even the night time shift!:eek::eek::eek::eek:

    i don't know about that! i have 2 boys with autism & having them concentrate for 5 minutes is difficult enough lol

    Hmm. There's different severity. It may be that they are concentrating - on something else. If they are deeply concentrating on something else, e.g. as I might be doing when looking at the prices in M - it would have been difficult for anyone around me to have attracted/distracted my attention ('distracted' it, and me, away from the prices and put my attention onto the person trying to attract my attention). I'd physically have to move it, all in one chunk, from concentrating on the prices to concentrating fully on the person 'interrupting' me - then back onto the prices (which was what I was really interested in in the first place and didn't really want the social interaction). That's just for me though - could be different with your boys. Hope this helps.

    Can anyone remember which company was offering the cashback on the Thai lager. Thinking of doing it, but can't find. Maybe it's finished?
