    Going to A shortly for my first APG, what to buy? I've looked through the thread and still not sure. Have done T PP so know roughly what I'm doing. :)
    Thanks
    Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.

    :hello:Possibly just popping in, who knows?

    :(Note the M offer of 5 for £3 not being picked up here, so at least one of those Muller items (which they bought two of) or at least both of the ones they bought one of has failed to identify that it's in the mbuy with the other Mullers bought. I think:rotfl: - aau1 will doubtless correct if not and explain which could have caused the failure. It could of course be all of them that they bought or some of them (I think as above) as long as enough that sadly fail. Shows limits of a manual collection.

    Neither have the 400g Strawberries (£1.69 in M) been picked up this time. But...!!!:D A is now £1.50 on them, according to this receipt, and so it is more than 10% cheaper than £1.69!:j The 400g Strawberries, can therefore be used as fillers vs T or M only. The vs M at N/A is at least until the price collection vs Morries updates (possibly Tuesday or Wednesday next week). T is currently N/A so that result is today. The other two rivals are much more expensive.

    Grrr...fusilli again:mad::mad: - that's going to make it to my now current most disliked item purchase in A.:( As usual, incorrect number of fresh milks bought and yet again most optimum combination to lose more.

    Plums go vs T at £1 and, fwiw, the Young's Admiral Pie 300g is also £1 vs £1 T.

    Did you get the Superhub 2 for free? If so, how?

    :)

    Yes, I complained using the online chat in the account "Contact us" area and they sent it out next day delivery with only a £5.99 delivery charge (offered to send an engineer out but I said I was confident enough to install it - one wire, what can go wrong?). They originally said this resulted in a 12 month contract extension as an upgrade but after moaning again that it was to solve the wifi problem with faulty equipment rather than an upgrade they relented :cool:. I think a telephone call to the thinking of leaving team would probably get you the same result - a quick moan about the wifi not working properly etc.

    I know I should have tried getting the £5.99 waived too but I was just glad to get the router. We get upgraded to 100MB soon ("free" - yeah right. no coincidence that our monthly sub went up £5 before this free upgrade came in ... again!).

    Hi does that mean that the gammon was one of the half price ones?
    I don't understand sorry for being a bit thick this afternoon.

    Please could you post the actual price and weight of the gammon you bought please. Thank you.

    Continuing apologies for my tardiness over any lists. Everything taking twice as long to do as it should(:(). Wonder if most people have this though or is it those just me?:think: And RL has to fit in somewhere too.

    £5 gift voucher for 5 x salad purchases at £6.50

    http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/5-gift-voucher-for-5-x-salad-purchases-morrisons-1894928

    I was the original OP - I put this on a separate message on this MSE elite thread and on FB Extreme couponing UK with a photo a few days ago so this is where it has been pinched from.

    Annoying when they don't state where they got the original info from

    Ive been into store again yesterday and there is another version of the salad which is 99p so even cheaper than £1.29

    Hi Sunshinemummy, I got this email at lunch time.

    I have updated mine, but not by clicking on the link in the email.

    I went direct to their main page and clicked forgot password. :)

    Very good idea
