    Are the chops and cheddar cheese ones back on?
    No: and 3603 mbuys signed in for me, and 3549 signed out. Looks like it's already done it's updating:D:j.

    I just saw this and thought it may make you laugh, morning all :wave:

    My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife:
    Marrying you has screwed up my life.

    I see your face when I am dreaming.
    That's why I always wake up screaming.

    Kind, intelligent, loving and hot;
    This describes everything you are not.

    Love may be beautiful, love may be bliss,
    But I only slept with you 'cause I was p!ssed.

    Roses are red, violets are blue,
    sugar is sweet, and so are you.

    But the roses are wilting, the violets are dead,
    the sugar bowl's empty and so is your head.

    I want to feel your sweet embrace;
    But don't take that paper bag off your face.

    I love your smile, your face, and your eyes
    Damn, I'm good at telling lies!

    My love, you take my breath away.
    What have you stepped in to smell this way?

    My feelings for you no words can tell,
    Except for maybe 'Go to hell.'

    What inspired this amorous rhyme?
    Two parts vodka, one part lime.
    'I solemnly swear that I am up to no good'

    Hi there: I am busy - and going to be kept busy - this overnight!
    Possible Pringles glitch vs Waities or T. Mbuys off on some of them. Details in further posts.

    It was a good move to not have to go into work today:D. Onto vs T: are the Huggies still on mbuy in A?:think: Not as good notional price elsewhere as before (now 2 for £7 rather than £2.74 each) but if lack of mbuys then it's fantastic!:D Mbuys missing on the F.T Pineapple too (compares vs T at £1 - buy in two if that still keeps off). It's on my 'to-do' list to check the Huggies on a.com amongst everything now else! [Huggies checked - 5.53am - showing no mbuys on a.com - are they showing mbuy instore?]

    Some of the Shloer 750mls have gone onto £1.10 r'back, others still on 2 for £3. Is that msm - in which case 2x £1.10 instore of the 2 for £3 ones then 2 for £3 vs T or S I think at £1.12 each. Or - better - if they really have split the prices instore, then maybe some scope for confusion - if your store still has 2 for £3 SELs, buy one of the 2 for £3 and one of the £1.10, should go through inevitably missing mbuy at the 2 for £3.25, then overcharge and GC + comp back vs T or S at £1.12 each. Perhaps, thinking about it, it's more likely to be msm partial updating rather than different price sets on different ones instore. Those are another set of items to be checked on a.com later!:rotfl:

    Are the 24 pack Oxo cubes on 2 for £3 or are they really just £2 straight?

    SP Irish Stew appears like it has shot up from 49p to 70p - but it's still 49p in T - maybe SEL still saying 49p, then buy one and 70p charge, GC etc.

    Mbuys still off on Seriously Strong mentioned above and Butch Sel. 700g Pork Chops. Vs Sains in 2s. (possibly M's on the cheese but wait until we know...).

    Mbuys back on the Pringles though - apart from Salt & Pepper 190g (compare vs W or T) and Xtra - Spicy Chilli Sauce (190g) vs T only at £1.15.


    Edit: I now have T at £1.15 each on some of the 190g Pringles only (not the 175g ones as they are full price) - T price shows on some of the 190g ones signed in only and on some of them signed out only:mad: on msm! Sorry folks I'll leave it to you to find which ones show what, as my time is best spent elsewhere on the lists in more general!

    And they're off again - on Kickin' Spicy Chilli Sauce (175g) and Xtra - Spicy Chilli Sauce (175g) - vs Waities in 2s. (In addition to the two versions of Pringles mentioned in my last post.)

    :think::question: 190g of above Xtra compares vs T at £1.15 but 175g is £2.48:eek: for T and £2.30 2 for 1 for W?:think:
