    10 days. :eek:

    FWIW, in case anyone else was trying to do an AVS, the following should have compared at £2 as they are on 3 for 2 but didn't even pick up £1 price. :mad:

    3 x Oral B 123 Toothpaste (100ml) £3.00 N/A

    It better taste nice. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    No they shouldn't!:( They are 'a promotion that is difficult for msm to compare against' and therefore a promotion that is excluded under the APG T&Cs. As you bought the promotional number and therefore tried to compare against the promotion, it correctly (sadly) returned N/A.

    That's why these were on my last Tvs S list and I mentioned them as being on there. And also why they never appeared on Avs S.

    I think that is good toothpaste, although, with Basics stuff elsewhere on 3 for '2' - probably buy 3x Eday Value? - although with individual price increase on Sains Basics - I am beginning to doubt my price per unit and thinking it's way too expensive on the Oral B. Although, it's Oral B isn't it?:eek:

    thanks for this, will have a look later. DS2 in had his initial assessment and has been referred on to the scait (something along those lines) team for further assessment. They think autism/adhd. He loves the iPad but I worry about what he gets out of using it.
    Bless. Hopefully one or two of them may be useful. From what I've picked up, with my very limited knowledge, they can be very useful communication and development tools.

    Hello! totally newbie poster here but I've been following the elite thread for a few months now. I've not been able to take advantage of any glitches yet as I don't drive and our bigger Tesco is quite far to walk to. Just discovered a Tesco express though which is just up the road so possibly will be able to now if anything good crops up and they stock it!

    Just thought I'd say hello instead of constantly lurking! xx

    Hello and welcome! Just be aware that they don't give T PPs in Tesco Expresses. So don't go trying any of those 'more expensive shops' vs competitors in there! HTH.

    Are you saying '3 for 2' deals at M/S/T/W will compare as N/A on APG?

    Just wondering as it's something, if correct, I didn't know.

    Evening all.
    Love the colour of that wall in your pic Emerald, lovely.
    TS, and anyone else, if you bought cases of mystery wine, its tradition that you list all the contents on here :D
    Well, got about 15 pages to catch up now, not managed to get on since this morning.

    Places get into trouble with the Information Commissioner's Office and occasionally fined (or 'monetary penalty imposed on them', whatever the terminology is) for things like that. Here, it's a data breach affecting one person's details (one too many I know) although we don't know how much wider it may or may not be.

    Breaches of confidentiality within the NHS are punishable by death. Well, serious disciplinary anyway. Information governance (patient confidentiality) is up there with infection control in terms of how serious they take it. Seriously, not only would I lose my job, I'd likely end up with a criminal record too. Addressing someone as Mrs instead of Ms or Miss is an accident. Doing what they did to Emma's sister is wreck less at best.

    And I believe that the financial penalties are quite high too

    She is going to call up to complain tomorrow. I agree QOC, it could happen to someone else. And maybe even for something more serious. One small mistake you could forgive but this was littered with them and now means our neighbour knows way more than is appropriate about my sis :(

    Also, the copy of the letter for the NHS Doctor had mistakes on it too so she's worried about the referral going awry. It's not just the privacy issue.

    You sister absolutely cannot complain to the secretary. This needs to go much, much higher. And this is coming from one. There's no excuse at all for that kind of carelessness :mad:

    People like that make me really cross because they give me and my other colleagues a bad reputation :(

    And it wasn't me that typed it either :p

    If I can help with anything please feel free to PM me. I'm off to bed now but if I can help, I will x

    Evening DM. :)

    Do I have to really? :sighs:

    I guess it will give me something to do rather than drink it. ;)

    My case of mystery white has been dispatched so should be here tomorrow. Guessing you gave that one a miss. Surely there must be some reds around soon. :eek:
