    I think the Savers Measuring Jug that was on RTC earlier has gone back up now - or maybe it's because I'm in a new store. Removing the Jug and the Mixing Bowl therefore.

    And all those Butcher's dog foods that I removed on Monday - I suspect no-one else will remember me doing that as you wouldn't have been paying great attention to the list unlike I was - apparently got to put them all back on now:mad::mad::rotfl:. They were £3 and 2 for £5 in M, although they were never showing the M mbuy on msm, but on Monday the mbuy label had disappeared in the main store I used. Now, that label is on today, in the main store I used this time, so they're apparently back onto the list! Although that's still more expensive than the own brand M so might leave them off. (Also, if I am having difficulties with the SELs in M there, what will the APG do?:think: Doesn't seem much chance of picking up the mbuy anyway?) I notice the mbuys for M are now showing on msm, fwiw.

    I think that would make them free :T

    There's a few good 50% cb offers on Birds Eye on MSM, so am thinking of combining 6 offers and then claiming £1.50 from COS as well. Could do a v S as they seem to have offers on :money:BE peas are also on Shopitize this week, so could combine all of the offers nicely.

    MSM app seems a bit glitchy for me at the moment though and it's not adding the cashback properly... Will try later.



    The BE Hot & Spicy Chicken 180g is a good one to add AvS. Works at 50p.


    I've noticed that some items (eg Activia) are showing cashback on the main MSM site, but not on MSL (as we used to call it). I thought perhaps the offer was HD only, but when you add the item to your list and tick, it 'tings' nicely.

    Hi,


    I seem to recall a conversation on here about solar panels recently. Wondered if anyone could offer a bit of advice.


    Went to IKEA today but they didn't have what we wanted, so went for free coffee. Saw that there was no queue for the solar panel people and went to enquire about a quote. Seems very positive and much cheaper than anything we have had quoted in the past. Anyone with any experience of Hanergy or IKEA systems. Will it give us 'free' energy and pay us a return?


    The panels are not as efficient as some, but we have a lot of roof area, so can have a lot of panels!


    Tia. HE x

    Turned into a rotten wet day day here now, it's tiddling down :eek:

    This morning doc has referred me back to hospital consultant about my knee. It is so unstable now, I've just gotta be brave and go ahead with replacement :eek:

    Also referred to eye clinic as since May I can see a round clear disc shape outlined in black right in front of my eye. When I look right it moves to the right and looking left it moves to the left. Specsavers said in June they couldn't see anything wrong but it is becoming disruptive now as it's always there.

    Funeral went fine, nice little crowd there and it seems I've landed myself back in a singing group :o. How did I do that?

    As a treat I'm going to Gala bingo tonight for a free session. They miss me and sent me a free game.

    At last MrA has got the Halloween mags in, do the pasta compare well anywhere just now please?

    AJ.....Zippys shop from this morning for pasta v Sains HTH

    Thanks for confirming the PPs compare as I have a very similar shop, but have also included Dr O pizza (paid 15p to take away) and Hot n spicy chicken at 40p after apg/msl.

    Does anyone know how many times you can claim for the cider on MSL as I've already done 1?

    Have we seen this M & S party wine code. £85 mixed case of 6 for £51

    http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/deals/marks-and-spencer

    Case includes bottle of champagne, vintage port, 2 decent reds and 2 decent whites.

    Not the cheapest of offers even with the discount. If you add 2 bottles you get 5% extra off well nearly as then the 40% code gets taken off remaining total.

    I hovered over confirming my order for ages. :o

    Shame DM is away he might have liked this selection. :beer:

    Separate them on the conveyor or even better scan them yourself :money:

    I did separate mine (they were Maoam Stripes and Maoam Sour Stripes) once and the SA still managed to pick them up together, from separate parts of the conveyor, and scanned them as one:(:(. Was that glitchy Honey Nut Shredded Wheat shop of ages ago. The whole thing failed as not enough items:(. I separate them even more now - or better just scan them myself - or maybe get more than 8 different items just to be sure - or I now go for Flump and Maoam and one Haribo and a Giant Mice as they look clearly different. Anyway! Less of that - just trying to catch up now:rotfl:.

    Never can trust these SAs. Mind you, it's supposedly just as bad leaving matters to your OH, DS or whoever. I left one shop, a Mullers shop, with one of my relatives to do:eek: - they actually managed to do it right!:T:T They told me the SA was going to scan the Mullers as one, even though they were totally different to one another, but that they told the SA to scan each one individually, and they did! I'm glad my relative was on the ball there, they aren't usually!:rotfl: So much effort as well trying to make sure they were all scanned separately, putting ones that looked the same away from each other on the conveyor. Or - just do it yourself!!:mad::mad::(:mad::rotfl:

    (They don't seem to think it matters or is vitally important when it is. Now, how is anyone doing a stock check of various items supposed to marry up the exact number of each flavour version that the store should have in stock, if SAs are not scanning every different one separately and in the right numbers? From the store's point of view, it's not reflecting exactly what was sold and what should still be left in stock, so it's (surely?) causing the store problems from that point of view.)
