    No it's just being rolled over. I think this is extremely :naughty: of T as it suggests the price has gone to £3 today and was previously £6, when in fact that £6 appears to have applied, on the website, for a few hours late on Sunday and was, probably, never charged at all (immediately before today). It's T's website's way of 'rolling over' the offers for a further week (or two weeks here) - this appears to be standard practice in the way the site operates and, if it happens enough more, it might annoy me enough to force me to Trading Standards. It's suggesting the £3 price is charged between 14/7 and 29/7 and is more time-limited than it is, when in fact that £3 has been charged since last week. As I said, it's T's standard practice as far as I can see (standard practice in potential breach of consumer protection:naughty:). We need that black price to change as that's where msm and then APG get the pricing from: regardless of what the (misleading on this occasion in my view) strapline claims.

    £6 was the previous price prior to this offer starting last week (7th July) but it was not charged yesterday as far as I can see and I think misleading to suggest the offer is running only from today, with a £6 black price annoyingly on the screen to suggest it was £6 on 13/7 when in fact it was the same £3. :mad::mad::mad:

    Thanks Savvy, I realise that the offer was being rolled over - it showed as £3 on MSM yesterday, and compared at £3 yesterday.

    I was explaining why it had not compared favourably for Claire this morning - MSM has now updated and is showing the £3 price again, so should be fine for tomorrow's shops. :)

    also in Asda keep checking the pet food section, even more items reduced to a few pence today.

    In my store they had blue double cat dishes for 25p - very useful as we often have 2 heads trying to get into one dish :D

    Also some cat treats that look like miniature dog drops SEL said 10p but they went through for 9p

    Very useful if you are getting a welcome home hamper together for someone expecting a new kitten :T

    I know you do - but what would the average consumer who sees "valid 14/7 to 29/7" think?

    Anyway...thanks for posting T's website and annoying me (T that is, not you).:)

    I'm with whoever mentioned voluntary work. Aside from looking good on the cv, it makes you feel good and useful. Really helped me out mentally last year.

    Thanks to you guys even though I am now 'between contracts' as we freelancers call it, I can still support my family with the savings I've built up. Also means I can take my time to look for a new contract that's suitable.

    Lots of love for the elite today :)

    I am thinking that some things you have to be over 18 to work as a volunteer which is not helpful - I think one of my brood wanted to do half a day a week at the local RSPCA shelter and she had to fudge her application form as she was a few months short of 18 - very naughty I know

    But plenty of other things you can volunteer for even if you are under 18.

    Not wanting to get in the way of a good rant, but...:p

    When I bought the Comfort Pure 85 washes last Thursday, it was showing as £6 in T. (I bought vs S @ £4) So was available from T.com at that price last week. I've been watching it and it only went down to £3 in the last couple of days (yesterday or today).

    1 x Comfort Concentrate Pure Fabric Conditioner - 85 W...£6.50£6.00

    It's only a game

    Don't book anything until the passport is actually in your hands :D

    Travel zoo have some good offers for late availability and they have a weekly update.

    Another good website is Iglu Cruises - look under last minute cruises - there are some very good deals out there over the next couple of months :j

    I wont book anything just nice knowing its on its way.

    Will have a look thanks.
