    Well, I can assure you that the petrol between the 3 Morries stores was paid for. Thanks to an idiotic shopper who bought a couple of these:

    Dolmio Pasta Bake - Creamy Tomato (500g)

    001654.jpg?v=2
    £1.94 atStore_2.15px.png


    (38.8p/100g)

    Add to basket

    Price Comparison


    M [Strike]£1.95[/Strike] £1.00
    T £1.60 any 2 for £3.00
    S £1.80 any 2 for £3.00
    W £1.70 any 2 for £3.00
    O £1.60 any 2 for £3.00
    A £1.94:rotfl:

    Looks like they bought them at their most expensive price for the last 12 months. I like it when they buy at the most expensive store:T.

    I had thought these might be on 2 for £3 but, no, there is no mbuy reduction on the receipt. They bought them both at full price. And, yes, on their overall shop, Morries were cheaper!:j:rotfl::T:T Someone buying a couple of a Morries savvy buy in A5da - hurrah!:D Got the APG, thank you:).

    (Not one for us - as you know I think (10% off) £1 for 500g is pretty poor.)

    Biscuits worked for me today Perky.
    Ive no idea about the Cadburys I'm afraid, I haven't bought these.
    Remember the biscuits are instore only (no trigger available online) and the Cadburys are C&C/HD shops. HTH

    I can't see the Pick Up on msm (in or out) - it's not coming up under "Bahlsen", and no Cookie Dough on there either. I can't see them in the 4 for £3 offer. I had thought msm was updating it's database today and new items being added on - as that would explain the downtime - but, when they are not on a.com...:D

    I think the problem is that T has gone back up to full price on the Rockys:(:(. Looks like best is now vs M at £1:(:eek:, but I cannot confirm. Seems a very poor glitch now, in my view, just way too dear_pale_ compared to what it was before! Even worse as they are Rocky 8 pack:p these days not Rocky nines.

    :eek::eek::eek::eek:_pale_ So you're getting them for that horrid price.

    Meant to say good afternoon FC to you today - good... evening! - lucky to be in sunny Blackpool of a summer afternoon.

    What horrid price would that be? :D

    Rocky trigger
    A v T

    1 x McVitie's Medley Hobnob Raisin & Milk Chocolate Ba... £1.80 £1.00
    2 x McVitie's Penguin Bars - Toffee (9) £3.18 £1.38

    These are the only ones my fussy lot will eat :( I gave the Rockys to the window cleaner :o

    Yes it is rather nice here if you can avoid all the semi naked people :p:D :rotfl:

    Possibly each vs Morries at £1.99 each, even though msm.co.uk only has the Breaded version:

    A M
    1xYoung's Chip Shop Fish Fillets in Bubbly Batter (4 per pack - 400g)£2.50 1xYoung's Breaded Fish Fillets (4 per pack - 400g)£1.99
    1xYoung's Breaded Fish Fillets (4 per pack - 400g)£2.98 1xYoung's Breaded Fish Fillets (4 per pack - 400g)£1.99

    Perhaps possibly try one of each vs Sainsbobs (S 2 for £4) and, outside of N.I., see what the M results would have been? (That's if you think £1.99 to compare to is any good:rotfl:.)

    They're penguin bars not biccies!:rotfl: Glad to see you did not go down Rocky avenue:T:T. (Not on what we can see on the APG anyway:rotfl:.)

    Right - best be off. Nice evening - and no Morrisons!:D:rotfl: Then again, I bought one of the Young's in Morrisons - wasn't aware that A now stocks them:o - but there was a reason for that (why I got a pack in M)...more on which (maybe) later.
