    In Flanders fields the poppies blow
    Between the crosses, row on row,
    That mark our place; and in the sky
    The larks, still bravely singing, fly
    Scarce heard amid the guns below.
    We are the Dead. Short days ago
    We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
    Loved and were loved, and now we lie
    In Flanders fields.
    Take up our quarrel with the foe:
    To you from failing hands we throw
    The torch; be yours to hold it high.
    If ye break faith with us who die
    We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
    In Flanders fields.

    Not doubting you classy :( Just trying to work out which I should buy and if it could be store specific. Sorry you took it that way x

    hey! I wasnt implying that you were doubting me at all, hence the laughing icon at the end, i feel such a fake sat here, but what is annoying me, is i saw this offer last week and has taken me until now to buy the damn things, tick tock!

    From a womble 3 hours ago A v M..

    1 x ASDA British Parsnips (500g) £1.00 £0.49
    2 x Nestle Rolo Chocolate Dessert (4x70g) £3.00 £2.38
    1 x Dolmio Bolognese Sauce - Extra Mushroom (500g) £1.00 £0.90
    2 x ASDA Trimmed Fine Beans (205g) £2.00 £1.78
    1 x ASDA Sugar Snaps (155g) £1.00 £0.92
    1 x Cadbury Fair Trade Dairy Milk Giant Buttons (119g) £1.00 £0.93

    :( I can see why they have these at £1.19 (the price of the twinpack in M) as, in the Ms I saw, they have the different Nestle twinpacks and £1.19 price around an offer label which clearly shows the 4 pack and has £1 price only on the offer label (no place for them to scan as such).

    The price collectors see the £1.19 price around the offer label for the 4 packs and think the four packs are £1.19 in M. They are not reading it properly. They are useless to that extent IMO.

    Also not liking that they have now gone on 2 for £3 in A having been, very briefly, £1.98 before. There must have been a day where they were 2 for £3 instore but the £1.98 straight was still on a.com and msm - how could we have missed that?:(

    Sugar Snap Peas are on 2 for £1.49 in M.

    That is not the only choc. pouch at 93p in M, but it's pretty expensive IMO and I don't like comparing from A r'backs that much as they don't work out favourably.

    Same with the Dolmio, which I left a note about on Monday but have never got to. 90p for 500g is now worse than my 'trigger' price for 750g (£1.30) and given that those were on glitches that worked out virtually free (or better) some time back, 81p for a 500g jar is very expensive IMO. I think there are own brands in M that may be at slightly cheaper than that price. Some of those may be 450g though, so they are not v.good. Same with the Patak's sauces these days - when they are 88p in M but own brand equivalents same size are regular price 84p, the Patak's don't even make it to my list. They're on msm.co.uk for anyone to see anyway - you can see them in the "Savvy buys" whenever they go back to those prices which, as often, makes them rule-out items these days as the "Savvy buy" prices are too expensive.

    I am fed up with my hair :(

    I have very greasy/fine hair and am fed up with it.

    Over the years I have wasted yes wasted my money on various shampoos cheapo ones and expensive ones and none seem to work. I have to wash my hair every night or it looks like I have stuck it into a deep fat fryer :( I have left it a day over the weekend or holidays but it looks a mess and itches :(

    Moan over back to the fa cup footie match :D

    Sounds like you have similar hair to me tweets. I've given up with fancy shampoos and just use timotei from Poundland now. I also don't use conditioner every time I wash it, because it just makes it feel lank and heavy. I'm guessing your work environment probably doesn't help much either?

    We're watching the footie too. Hoping for an upset, I love an underdog :)
