Didn't I mention, possibly a year ago, that £1 bananas packs are really expensive IMO and loose would get you a lot more? Seems the Daily Mail has finally caught up. At last, typical of me, saying something for years and years and then, eventually, people generally actually cotton on - I was telling you so for years and you were ignoring me!:(:rotfl::rotfl: The penny finally drops doesn't it?:(:(:rotfl:

The one that gets me at the moment is people always buy the well-advertised 49p 335g Broccoli, when loose broccoli is cheaper. Another case of misdirection by the stores perhaps... (Expect to be mentioned in the Daily Mail in about 15 months' time:rotfl::rotfl:.)

I noticed the three-pack of bananas recently went down in price in Aldi to 33p:rotfl::(. So, about the same then as buying the loose bananas has always been. Just shows how expensive those packs normally are.

I notice Aldi now open until 10pm. Poor staff:(.

I'm off to Paris next weekend- can anyone recommend some stuff for me please?

We're going to generally sight-see and eat a load of pastries etc but it'd be great if I had some specific recommendations- a good cocktail bar, a tasty restaurant? You're a well-travelled bunch. I've never been before. Very excited.

Thoroughly recommend this restaurant http://robertetlouise.com It's not fine dining, booking highly recommended but only if you don't mind sharing a table. Super wood fuelled, cooked steaks. Excellent food, was approx €70 for three with a couple of bottles of wine. Menu of the day available, lots of single diners who were made to feel comfortable iykwim. Hth

Ahhh...Daily Mail link I just gave, I now actually read the article (hey, Savvy, actually catch up:eek:) and I notice:

"That bag had a big red sticker on it, saying they were a pound."

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Let's break this down into two parts shall we?

1. That bag had a big red [my emphasis] sticker on it. I notice the key word, that the sticker is red in colour (and also that it is "big"). Red!! See what I told you a few days ago about how people generally perceive red as indicating an offer, whether or not it actually is:D. That is so funny:rotfl::rotfl:. It does work, work, work.

Avoid red stickers and red background pricing. For example - although despite Potatoes bags generally being really expensive (may get onto this - would be getting Sains Basics at £1.90 again or T Eday at £1.18, about the same price per unit and Sains Basics one of the few products in that line that aren't way dearer than other stores - but my 'new' way of buying - to buy with a womble, even if A more expensive, as paying less real cash. I notice how I am indeed having to go back and get them again much sooner, as not much for the money (e.g. the apples packs) compared to elsewhere, even though, with wombles, it's actually saving money) but the Potatoes - if you are having to get them in A, maybe because a womble means less real cash - no need to go for two bags of the White Potatoes at 2 for £3, that they obviously want people to buy. Note the Salad Potatoes same size are £1.50, so same price without getting you to buy more. But then you may need to buy them more often. No need to get one bag of White (thinking you'll miss the mbuy) and pay more (£1.69 individual, or Avs M for one, £1.52 net., 'only' 2p more). Lots of people, even when an mbuy is on, and the red labelling drawn them there, may still miss the mbuy.

Either way, either they buy 2 bags and pay more in total (£3) or they miss the mbuy and pay more (£1.69). You can, stock permitting, just get one bag of Salad Potatoes - £1.50. No particular prominence drawn to that on the store shelving of course:rotfl:.

2. "...saying they were a pound"
:rotfl::rotfl:

Yet again.
People think £1 is a good price:wall::wall:.

:rotfl:So funny that people think they look good for both reasons. And both parts of the supermarket psychology game (psychology on its customers) working, again.:D

:rotfl::rotfl:I've always got loose bananas, as I realise all along they are cheaper. Poor neurotypical people having their perceptions used and failing to realise this fact all along. It's typical of most people to assume something is the case simply because they believe it is. The person on the autism spectrum though tends not to make assumptions and tends to think it through and consider it all in advance rationally and properly and based on all the evidence.

To the general public, I can only say: Ha, ha, ha.:p:rotfl::rotfl:

no...me neither!!:cool:

In fact it’s best to drink heavily for the time being, what with the promise
I’ve made not to touch a single drop during ‘No Drink November’.”


Office worker Eleanor Shaw also swore she would
go without drink for a month. However, when she remembered she had children, she
realised there was no option but to open a bottle of Pinot Grigio at
noon.

Logic is simple. Some well established and well liked members get more likes than others.

I pity the fool who monitors how many like they get
