    Alright, I have the 25 minute period of withdrawal symptoms (no football match:rotfl:) - here's 'one I checked earlier'. "Best" comp. was vs Waities:

    1 x Birds Eye Crispy Chicken Dippers (12 per pack - 22...£0.98N/A Wrong ones - should be, actually 42 pack probably vs Morries at £3 (even though not best as S were £2.92 earlier. I said vs T on 24 pack (£1.64 T) but T's price times 2 is more than £3.00?!?

    1 x Caxton Pink n' White Jammies (6 per pack - 100g)£0.50£0.59 Wrong comparison:p. Actually these are N/A everywhere else, but of Caxton should be Pink n White Wafers vs M 49p - although that's also wrong week as have been 2 for 80p some months ago in M so should have bought 2 back then and would still be in date even now I suspect

    1 x Comfort Concentrate Fabric Conditioner Blue Skies ...£2.00£3.00:(:( (sighs, these becoming an irritant now too)
    Comparison total (compared products only)£22.00£30.36

    Told you:p - nothing significant for us:(:rotfl:. Four:eek: full price loaves of bread? (Yes, I know, even higher without mbuy - but for me £1.00 is full enough price, leave alone anything beyond that:eek:.)

    Just checked - those SP Sausages N/A vs everywhere. :doh:Just realised they are the frozen ones:(, wondered why they looked good for the amount.
    In fact, this is a weight reduction from 1kg possibly as well as a non-compare vs elsewhere due to pack sizes. Should have been vs £1 at M a year or so ago maybe (until M increased its price to £1.10/£1.20:eek:) and then 90p, for 1kg, rather than 99p for 907g now. So - don't represent good value at all, in that light, IMO.
