    Just to confirm, carver ham worked for me today :)

    Tried the ciabatta too but I think I got the wrong ones - my store only had the 4-packs, which did not compare :(

    Someone may find this useful - some of the items on here, although they bought some stupid ones as well which took away APG. Then again, we are dealing with the general public, and the general public is quite frankly thick. Note that there is a very significant difference between the "general public" and the "public". You, on here, as part of people in the world at large are part of the "public". However, you on here as part of the Elite and shopping the way the Elite do, whilst you are part of the public, as I am too, are not part of the "general" public for these purposes, the general public being people generally and the way people generally shop. Which is *not* the way we do. Just had a laugh out loud at what a political commentator has said as part of the papers review on BBC News. They are (or were a few moments ago) discussing a new survey. It's fascinating, she said - the survey shows the public [general public under my terminology in this post] support caps on benefits, but they criticise the bedroom tax - which is a cap on benefits:rotfl::rotfl:.

    In other words, general Joe public hasn't a flaming clue or any knowledge at all. Ask do you support caps on benefits, yes. Do you support the bedroom tax? No. Which... is a cap on benefits! Thus your first answer indicated your pure lack of knowledge and/or failure to think through about what your opinion really was:wall::wall:.

    I'm sure people here, into money-saving, would well know this as we are a more knowledgeable section of the public than the average. It is not you that is "thick", but the public and shoppers beyond this thread, i.e. general public (muggles). (Maybe 'thick' is a too condescending and offensive term, but nonetheless in some senses it is a good term. In other words, I'm not being, or not trying to be, 'holier than thou' but, frankly, sometimes no other word will do when it appears to come close to matching the truth as found from research evidence. It's not one survey, it's just everything, time and again, that seems to show that the general public know absolutely very little about almost everything. And I bet they'd say - ah, stop being pedantic when you're calling the bedroom tax a 'cap on benefits'. Or, of course, as I put, what the media have come to term the "bedroom tax":rotfl:.)

    Anyway - 'enjoy' the comp!:rotfl:

    Have I missed something ....don't seem to have saw Auu
    SFSB
    Tom Thumb posting lately
    and as thick as I am
    I saw a warning thread may be shut
    if we kept on going
    but I seem to have missed "why"
    in that also
    wow it must be really hard
    in the real world where people
    can actually remember what is posted
    I am thankful that I forget that much so quickly
    its harder to be hurt by the written or spoken word
