Every Loquacious Idiosyncrasy Treated Equally - 11+ ELITE Thread

Savvybuyer

There are a few good items Avs S (besides the kitchen towels) - Lasagne Topper was one:), also a couple of specific Chicken Tonights were showing 50p for Sains but maybe they've gone now?:(

Also - I don't know why I'm promoting them - Be (Allegedly) Good to Yourself Minced Beef Hotpot is 60p - may be a bit better if have extra Nectar points for that range - usually unconscionably expensive to me - may be a good filler to a BM shop etc. - and Sainsbobs Chicken & Mushroom Pie 700g at £1.37.

I am currently not shopping at S at all. Besides them putting up prices on Basics items and annoying me - and generally just being too expensive a store without recompense - I was turning down their £3 off £20 several times as not good enough. Then they issued a £2 off £20 in (what seems to me to have been) a failed attempt to make me regret what I'd lost by turning down those £3s. http://www.bbc.co.uk/nature/27716493

These companies that try to tug at and play with our emotions eh?

I have no regret at all as I would still have been spending far too much even after the £3 and £10 BM and would rather just get one item at a few pence RTC:money: and not be coerced into spending on far more just to get the £3 off (yet spending far more than £3 more in order to get that).

In response to the miserly £2, I have not shopped at or bought anything from Sainsbobs ever since:money:. That was doubtless not what they hoped to achieve!:D I hope they regret it! (Doubt it as just one customer (former) is going to make little difference and I haven't made any human beings working at Sains. feel emotional regret. Hard to make an inanimate object like a company feel 'regret' or anything.) Anyway... they (the company not its staff;)) need to be treated like rats IMO. By not shopping there and making them regret it.

Hope they are missing me:D.

Remind me later to mention later how I think the M offer of £5 fruit & veg. did actually make a profit for M. And about loss leaders as well. I have a post held over for several days in relation to that, that I've been thinking of writing but not got round to.

That's if the European Court of Human Rights - nothing to do with the European Union but a separate body through the totally separate Council of Europe - doesn't stop us posting anything at all and ends up taking away our freedom of expression (contrary to what I posted early today). I'm not doing a free speech thing here, but this might prevent us posting anything at all (depending on the approach that MSE decides to take and any effect or otherwise on UK law):

Been expecting this ruling today - but, ah, now I see it's supposed to be coming out tomorrow.

With the amount of comments made across all forums, it would be impossible to have the staff or resources to prevet every one of them. And any prevetting itself would then place too much power in the hands of the companies/owners etc. of sites (precisely the same argument that has been made elsewhere that Google is now having to make decisions over what to remove from search results and that this ought to be decided by the public courts rather than putting it in the hands of a very powerful private company).

I've no idea. (I don't even have that from Monday, but I'll have a look specially now. Not that that gives any clue at all:rotfl:.)

So that's both of us - anyone that knows about either (or even both... or even all:D) of what we're asked please let us know! TIA.
