    Morning all, thanks for the pretty new thread FC :)

    Random question: I remember a couple of months back when lamb legs were £4/£5 a kilo, but they're now £9.99/kg in M, so there or thereabouts a similar price after the voucher. But is it really worth it? I'm looking at getting shoulder blade or shank instead (not that I know the difference) at £5.19/kg but I can't decide whether I'd end up with more meat and less fat/bone off the leg. I tend to do a roast dinner with round one, and then dice the meat and use it in many hotpots afterwards as it's a favourite in my household, but it seems a waste to use expensive meat for it. Also, I would ideally want to slow cook a shoulder but I don't even know if it will fit into my SC, so I'm wondering whether I could ask the butcher to halve it for me... Too many decisions to make for tomorrow and so little time! :o

    Any advice appreciated, as well as suggestions for bargains to get tomorrow.

    Are you still looking for a holiday Sarahdol? I just had an ad pop up on photobucket for onthebeach.co.uk. I don't know anything about them, but might be worth a look?

    Yes still looking, thankyou.

    Some googling of onthebeach turned up the above.

    I'd do a bit more research first before making your decision :)

    Thanks for that.

    I have assumed I will be alright vM - won't know until next month though as I am up to my limit. MSL suggests two of these match (appreciating that APG does not use MSL for M data) and they matched on reported shops on the old thread.

    Is it normal for evoucher dates on A.com to change to a later date when a new batch come in? Many of mine have been extended to later in August?

    Thank you

    Mine have been extended for the past couple of months. Seems odd but works in our favour.

    Sorry about that Sarah.

    Have you tried Air BnB? You can book entire apartments/homes at pretty reasonable prices if you were ok to do flights separately. Friends of mine have said good things.

    Also, House Trip I've seen advertised. Check them out and see what you reckon?

    can anybody see the walkers cheddar cheese and bacon flavour in Sada on MSM?

    these are in the 4 for £4 deal but not showing for me, so if bought with 3x frazzles or chipsticks against Morribobs (should) give a decent return as they are £1.68 v £1 in Morribobs.

    Edit,.... i have just signed out of msm and can now see them, but signed in they are missing.
