    Needed to use up an awkward high £30 C/S e-voucher so got a few Roses to top the order up together with more cat food......not quite a profit making exercise, but not bad for a total shop costing 19p ;)
    Lots of the 19p cat food subbed for more expensive 68p varieties.

    Think I'll stick with my 66 boxes of choc now :D

    0.17 x ASDA Bananas by Weight per kg £0.11 N/A
    10 x Feline Fayre Simply Tuna & Prawn in Gravy - Foil T... £1.90 N/A
    10 x Feline Fayre Simply Tuna & Squid in Jelly (85g) £1.90 N/A
    10 x Feline Fayre Chicken & Spinach in Jelly - Foil Tra... £1.90 N/A
    1 x Candyland Flumps Mallow Twists (12g) £0.10 £0.10
    1 x Haribo Starmix £0.10 £0.10
    10 x Cadbury Heroes (323g) £40.00 £20.00
    6 x Cadbury Roses (321g) £24.00 £18.00

    As with earlier shops all M/W items came back as N/A for some reason.

    Oh. Hello again everyone. W don't have any equivalents of those items, so it should be all N/A on that shop. If that's the case regarding M though, it does suggest that they haven't done a price collection and that the info. they have is now over 7 days old. So - no M comp. shops until further notice!:( It looks like they haven't done a price collection on Christmas Eve or yesterday - there was nothing to say they weren't doing any but perhaps they didn't. Do you know what? Unless anyone comes up with any results (other than N/A) vs M later on today, I'm not going to bother with a price collection tomorrow as there's no point. It looks like the next one is on 5th January, so that it's expected that everything will be N/A vs M between now and 6th, possibly 7th, of January. Hurray, at least it gives me some more time:). If anyone does have any prices at all for M return on the APG (from shops done from today), do post and let us know - otherwise I'm not bothering and APG is now only comparing vs T, S and W.

    Thinking this is nearly a year, since it was expected that M would go online and that price collections wouldn't be needed anymore. After a short while, I found online to be so unreliable and with so much missing that I went back to price collections and have been at it ever since. I don't know what T PP is doing at the moment regarding M, and I'm not bothering with it just for T PP (I suspect my Wednesday collection is out of sync with T PP anyway) - in at least one past year, T PP went completely N/A vs M even before the APG did. Outside of the holiday period, this is one area where, for once, I agree with T on this: "Morrisons – We use an Independent agency to visit Morrisons’ stores twice a week, as this gives us a wider representation of comparable products than is currently available from the Morrisons.Com grocery website". (https://www.tescopricepromise.com/Home/FAQ)

    It appears M list is now completely off (not that all of it was on in the first place:D) and not even the old list, with the now crossed-out items included and the bold items removed, works anymore. Whole thing to be frozen until after 6th January:(. No M comp. shops until further notice - and this (unless we see a return of prices pretty sharpish) rules out any over glitch period over the New Year where M would have appeared best. Happy New Year:laugh::).

    Emerald, did your £100 from the Co-op switch come through?

    Hi I ve just checked and yesssss it's there. One less money pay back to concern myself about :) busy chasing up the £100 referral bonus for solar panels now.

    Do I or do I not go for this Yorkshire Bank deal now. I don't mind closing the M & S one now as I had my £125 gift voucher a while ago. I hardly shop in M & S let alone bank with them.

    Do you know the criteria for this please or haven t you done it .:)

    Following up from my moan a few days ago re M&S only issuing me and DH £100 gift cards intead of the £125 that we were promised during a telephone converstaion, the Duty Manager that I complained to has sorted it out ! She evidently did what I asked and listened to the telephone recordings and checked my application records and has agreed with my comments and has today issued 2 x £25 cards .

    If they aren't actually costing you money then you are 'buying' them - just accepting a gift (which it would be rude to refuse).

    They were £1.50 in Waitrose store yesterday as I bought one. Went to the newly opened one in Chester .

    well that's because the 50% off reductions were replaced by 75% reductions today ;)

    BT are a load of rubbish in my opinion. Yesterday I received a letter from their debt recovery unit saying I hadn t paid my last bill and quote " In addition your credit rating will be further damaged " ... The cheeky !!!!!!s.

    This has been ongoing since November and I'm so glad I'm not with them anymore. They have that many departments one doesn t know what another is doing. I thought this was all done and dusted a few weeks ago but no.

    To cut a long story short I ve emailed them the proof that the money £51.01 was paid on the 7 th of November. How annoyed I was and I was seeking compensation for all the aggravation I've had .

    Oh well, at least I have a head start on 5th January, seemingly.

    If prices do return for M (from receipts dated from today onwards), do let me know (not that I can do anything about it if they return later this week after Wednesday afternoon:rotfl:). Otherwise, no 'Savvy Industries' price collection tomorrow (:j, in a way).:)
