    What did we all have for tea tonight?:)

    We had Lidl burgers with leerdammer cheese and woopsied salad. For dessert we had Asda vanilla icecream. I chopped in some crunchie pieces, twirl bites and maltezers & served with strawberries and raspberry coulis. Very yummy. Made very scrummy luxurious icecream.

    Its coming up 'product not found' on MSL.

    ...And it is...?;)

    Well if no-one provides me with the answer, why not just go out for your shopping and try and find it yourself?:(:p:p:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    So...I searched in one of the freezer cabinets. I soon found out they were some sort of Nestle product:T, as found the 5010238... at the beginning. Nestle Crunchies? No. Nestle Fab Lollies? Not those either.

    Then...:idea: I spotted some of these:

    319368.jpg?v=2

    Ribena Blackcurrant Ice Lollies (3x75ml)


    Remember me adding them as the last change I made to Tvs M, on the basis that they were, supposedly, not available in Mr A? No, probably not:rotfl:. Well, it turns out they are stocked in A after all - and the barcode matches!:j Bingo!

    Presumably one of them with Birds Eye Vegetable Nuggets 16 pack vs T or with R White Lollies vs S? (Note, if you missed it, the R Whites do *not* compare vs M.)

    It would be £1.10 APG if bought correctly (with 7 other appearing items etc.). However, as it's 2 for £3 that would be £1.90 for both. In other words, 95p each. Actually increases the cost of the Veg Nuggets/R White Lollies by 5p compared to buying them alone and comparing them straight £2 vs £1. Ten per cent cheaper 90p. Although, it does make the Ribenas 95p instead of the £1.50 they would be buying them straight in A on the 2 for £3. You could buy them in M (store permitting) at £1. Unless you have a Morries staff discount card, or possibly a T staff discount, assuming they compare £1.99vs £1 M, the 95p would probably be cheaper.

    There are, as usual, own brand six packs that are more lollies for the same sort of prices as these branded 3 pack ones. I was a bit miffed when I was shopping in Mr M - Halifax 'gave' me a 10% cashback offer that worked out the same as getting APG Avs M so I bought some items in M, including the cones packs that I didn't think would work. Same difference anyway. However, my M store that was overall the cheapest M - there being more RTC stuff available in there - did not have the £1 Ribena lollies, so I wasn't too happy there - the ones in A would therefore be roughly the same (with another item that compares at £1 cheaper to elsewhere).

    It also means N.I. shoppers, who maybe can't get Ribena Lollies for £1, unless they are available at that price somewhere else - Farm Foods? Iceland? I don't know what you have in N.I.:o - might be able to get them in A as a trigger to the appropriate item on Avs T or Avs S:T.

    I know you go for these branded lollies and cones sometimes;);):D - just like the Nestle Smarties Cones as a trigger ages and ages back. So, at last I have one for you again! Having lost the R Whites, we now have Ribena lollies - trigger to the 2 for £3. (Watch them appear on msm tomorrow morning, as it's one I've found you:rotfl::(:rotfl:.)

    Is this a find?:think::think: (Or maybe it's a rediscovery of something that was already found earlier?)
