Hi, you bought the correct ones, I've just scanned mine in the cupboard that I paid 15p for in mr t and they came up as 30p so it looks like a price change:(

Think booger Mr T has put the price up! Grrr....!!! (Hate you T:mad::mad::mad::rotfl::rotfl:.)

No it is only the U/smoked bacon sadly. I mentioned about people getting the smoked:wall: (that head-bang was in respect of my muggle shoppers on wombles more often than not picking up the wrong ones for me). Smoked shows N/A on msm, unsmoked shows 81p (think that is only against T - the instore collection for M doesn't link it up incorrectly:rotfl:).

Mumto2monkeys

Good afternoon:wave:

Rain, rain go away :rotfl:

We've just made a car out of a huge cardboard box complete with windscreen, pretend light and personalized number plate..:rotfl:

I've been looking on msm at the 3for £5 toiletries, I can't see one of the Olay products signed in or out, it's Olay soothing facial scrub...
Just wondered if anyone else can see it?? Thankyou:)

Savvy I agree that its all expensive however I don't think there are any better deals on frozen veg and choc at the moment If you've found any please tell The Galaxy isn't for me as I only really like Cadbury chocolate, although I will eat Guylians or Thorntons Belgian chocolate. If its not Cadbury chocolate then the filling needs to mask the taste of the inferior chocolate or I don't want it

I'm fussy about frozen veg too, preferring Birds Eye. I will eat Sada own brand but not Smartprice as I don't trust that they've been frozen quickly enough to retain all the nutrients. I also prefer not to travel to other stores so only shop at Sada

Thanks for that - you know my aim is always good-intentioned - to save people :money:. (If there's no better deals, lol, I wouldn't be buying them at all at the moment! That's the idea - with me - not an original one as usual though:rotfl: - buy when on offer enough to last till the next offer, works out as :money: in the end as otherwise I would be paying higher price in total, over the month or two, when it's something I can store - it's how the muggles shop all the time. So it is a :money: approach. Then I'll stock up on the offer, only for the beggars to go on glitch the following week:(:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.)

Westvleteren

Excellent advice given by Aberdeenshire police :rotfl:

Edit: I never find 1p chocs either and OH would throw it at me if I tried to give him Smartprice chocolate LOL

That needs to be done too of the 'Galaxy' in respect of others or, not the filling but the packaging instead. I have no :idea: why people turn their noses up at SP! Actually I possibly have some clue... it's this indoctrinated socially-created idea that the brands are better - brand smugness. Give them a SP bar inside of a Galaxy package and they wouldn't notice the difference. I disagree that SP is 'inferior' - that plays right into the perceptions and hands that the brands want you to think. I was in the trap of buying branded chocolate for many years. I tasted the SP one recently though and found it was, to me, nicer than Cadbury's. (How dare I say "nicer than Cadbury's" - but, yes, these commonly-held and endemic beliefs that the brands are better are I think wrong and I'm pleased to hold a minority opinion - if people generally were correct, my comment "nicer than Cadbury's" would have the total lack of controversy that it ought to have. Meanwhile, I'm happy to take a controversial - and, given this chance, the deliberately provocative - view that I have. I like holding a different view, because the common view (as almost ever) is completely wrong yet again.)

In fact - not chocolate, but the ice cream I mentioned earlier, the 'value' one had a third of the amount of fat. People on the TV programme assumed that the brand one was better and were prepared to pay for it. They were shocked!:rotfl: Whereas I was there, watching, in advance, assuming the cheaper one's inevitably going to be the healthier one. And I was right!:D I mentioned this earlier. I think it's possibly something about the 'normal' brain - people go for brands, they are really bizarre, they have assumptions, prejudices and emotions. All of which are, in my view, extremely often wrong. It's the best armoury available to the businesses to get people to pay more and to run counter to money-saving.

Glad to be in the minority again!:D:):):)

Morning All,

I don't know if already mentioned but I have found 2 triggers for the 2 for £3 cereal bars multibuy.

The 2 on the wombled receipt are not on the comparison.

ALPLICHEBAK - 501002921851L
ALPLIDOCHOC - 501002921859L

I hope someone can work out what they have brought.

The second is Alpen light double choc 5x19g

Afternoon. You beat me to it. I've just done a test shop on cereal bars 2 for £3. bought the alpen light cherry bakewell (I expect it to be mising from the APG) and one special K red berries. AvM £1.98 v 99p. Nothing to set the world alight but it will cost £1.91 for 2 packs of cereal bars.
