    previous serious legal issues as Martin alluded to here

    I read that Redfox, just could not understand how other sites such as the one mentioned managed to avoid legal action. Again, was just curious after seeing a load of codes on said other site.

    Of course they're more than 10% cheaper:mad:, they bought the Pepsi and lost out a lot.

    6 items on your bill qualify for comparisonASDALogoWhite.gif Morrisons

    CheaperSignBlue.gif+£2.74
    1 x Pepsi (8x330ml)£2.00£4.39:mad:
    1 x Walkers Crinkles Crisps - Cheddar & Onion (5x28g)£1.00£1.69
    1 x Sharwood's Cooking Sauce - Extra Creamy Medium Tik...£1.68£1.69
    1 x Nestle After Eight Chocolate Mints (300g)£2.00£2.25
    1 x ASDA Ready to Eat Bananas (5)£1.00£0.99
    1 x ASDA Chilli Chicken Wings (525g)£3.00N/A
    1 x ASDA Indian Takeaway Garlic & Coriander Naans (2 p...£0.85N/A
    1 x Nestle Fair Trade Kit Kat 2 Finger Bars - Milk Cho...£1.59£1.00
    Comparison total (compared products only)£9.27£12.01

    The receipt was a bit crumpled up and I had it 'out of line', so initially thought the Crisps, next to the Sharwood on the receipt as well, were £1.68 crisps - but it turns out they are £1 and lose out as well. Only a 5 pack:eek:_pale_. So, despite the Kit Kats being cheaper elsewhere and overpaying (IMO) for five very expensive bananas (or, alternatively, maybe in Mr A's view (I don't know), getting some cheap bananas but along with a bag justifiably charged somewhat extra for, as providing you with a bag - yeah right!:rotfl:), they still get 10% cheaper.

    Shouldn't the Garlic & Coriander Naans compare vs M at 75p?:think: Some recent other 320g Naans were down to 50p in M (long since gone back up) so 75p is quite dear. No, apparently not - msm.co.uk has M at £1.09:eek: on some Garlic & Coriander Naans of this weight (think they're looking at a more premium range?:rotfl:) so thank goodness it returned N/A although the outcome would have been the same.

    The one that made me laugh a few days ago was Kellogg's Cornflakes 750g returning N/A vs M:rotfl:.

    This was a mixed-up shop here too:

    6 items on your bill qualify for comparisonASDALogoWhite.gif Tesco

    CheaperSignBlue.gif+£2.01
    1 x Pepsi (8x330ml)£2.00£3.50
    1 x Walkers Crinkles Crisps - Cheddar & Onion (5x28g)£1.00£1.69
    1 x Sharwood's Cooking Sauce - Extra Creamy Medium Tik...£1.68£1.75
    1 x Nestle After Eight Chocolate Mints (300g)
    £2.00£1.75
    1 x ASDA Ready to Eat Bananas (5)£1.00£1.00
    1 x ASDA Chilli Chicken Wings (525g)£3.00N/A

    1 x Nestle Fair Trade Kit Kat 2 Finger Bars - Milk Cho...£1.59£1.59
    Comparison total (compared products only)£9.27£11.28

    Though not having those Mints - a recent offer price was £1.50. And, I remember M having an offer price of £1.39 quite a while ago (a year, maybe two?) on them so not going for that.

    KitKats vs Sainsbobs:

    Well it's one month to Christmas and I woke up feeling festive :xmastree::xmastree::xmastree::xmassmile:xmassmile

    I've decided the kids and santa can get me and OH a year of dates in a box :D

    There should be 12 parcels and in each one there is the instructions for a date and accessories for that date. I've got a few ideas, a meal out with restaurant giftcard, trip to the arcade with a bag of coins for the penny slots, be a tourist in your own town with leaflets and maps...any ideas would be appreciated!

    for summer months- a picnic with directions to a local place of beauty.
    -cinema giftcard and on the day bag of sweets etc to take
    -if u have a garden, 1 day in summer where you are seated outside, candles etc and dinner (if kids too young then a takeaway ordered) plus drinks...served by your own personal butlers/maids.

    I notice I've had a couple of price alerts, within a few days of each other (a few days' old now, but never mind...)

    First, on 19 November, I received one telling me about Kipling Bakewell Tart at £1.00 in Mr T and crossed out £1.49. Now, on 23 November, I get another price alert, saying Mr T at 90p on Kipling Bakewell Tart and crossed-out price of £1.49:think:.

    Too expensive anyway. These were a low of 65p in Sains. maybe two years ago - more recent "low" (or rather "high", compared to 65p) price was 74p in M (now on bogo'f' there, and 74p a bit over the odds so avoid). Also the tart is not quite the size it used to be when Sains had that 65p offer on. They are definitely smaller these days. On which basis, an offer price nowadays of 74p is probably more like 85p or 99p these days (based on adjustment for weight) and 90p is probably £1.00 or even £1.10:eek: now. I don't quite know - someone removed the weight from the description of the product so it's not so easy to tell.

    Who redesigned the Virgin Media TiVo interface and decided grey with a pink tinge was a good choice...? Ewwwwww!

    I haven't seen colours like this since the tube went on my old portable ...
