    I noticed you only get 5 now.. who stole the 6th one?

    Cadbury's I think;):rotfl::(.

    Just to clarify, it's not theft in the legal sense as it is technically legal to stop producing a six pack and to start selling a 5 pack now instead for the same price as a now discontinued 6 pack used to be:(. So, on that technicality, they've done nothing wrong.

    Apparently the manufacturers say thats what the public wanted!:eek: really??!!
    For tbe the same price, I don't think so!! :mad:

    :(

    Of course manufacturers in general say that. They survey a section of a public, not the entire population, and then use whatever results they get from their questions to try to justify what they are doing. Have they claimed they haven't any complaints from anyone yet? If so, I am going to start writing my complaint to them now, if only to cease them from truthfully claiming any such thing ever again in the future:mad:. An odd number, presumably odd-shaped pack? I don't think the general public will be pleased! They'll still buy them though:(:(.

    Last time I used O2 priority in WHSmith, the assistant asked me to close the offer down once I had shown her the code. She explained that some people had come in, used the offer, gone outside and passed their mobile to someone else, and they then used it again. I didn't think you could use the code twice, but she was adamant that this is what had been happening, so they were asking everyone to close the offer to prevent it.
    Maybe this has something to do with the change of time people are being allowed to redeem the offers?
    They said something like this to me too.

    If you close the offer, it still lets you go back if the timer hasn't run out though.

    50p MOC with mine:)
    Beware, though, it's highly addictive - on da street it's called 'crack in a jar':rotfl:

    I got a 50p coupon with the first sample I got :o

    Don't think I should get a jar :rotfl:
    Debt free 6th December 2014 :)

    I'm back, as you now know, and desperately trying to catch up again as usual. Not much change in M but I have far more information than what I should have. Counter Sprats have gone from £1.99/kg to £2.99/kg, the Courgettes are off, and there may be some good price on some Salad Cream. Avoid buying "Smart"price Noodles btw - they are too expensive! M's Mild Curry Noodles, of same weight, appear to be 14p.

    Meanwhile, according to the red border offer label:

    "Cornetto 4 pack

    £1.50
    Until 8th March 2014"

    However, according to the individual price labels - for Cornetto Chocolate 4 pack (in one store), Cornetto Strawberry 4 pack, Cornetto Classico 4 pack and possibly Cornetto Mint 4 pack (that was clearly £1 in another store earlier):

    NOW £1.00 [Strike]£1.50[/Strike]
    Valid until 8th March 2014.

    Make your mind up!:mad::mad::rotfl:

    So - take your pick! Could be anything.

    The new time is only 5 mins. I struggled to decide on the card in that time (I did it before hand as my internet always seems to go when I'm in the queue for the till) :rotfl:
  • Reminder that the CC Boost flash sale goes live for some retailers tomorrow. Hoping to get some for Pizza Express & Cineworld ready for Saturday.

    For what it's worth, this was msm at 12:20 signed out (I screenshotted it) which I thought would be the state of play on the apg after 1pm, really hope I'm wrong though!
