    I think everyone lurks for a while. I used to sit and laugh along but like skipping at school you never new where to jump in.

    I think I watched for a good 8 months before joining in. X

    Now you just need to figure out how to fix mixed up quotes on here :p :cool:

    in case this hasn't been mentioned yet, for those who shop at Waitrose, with effect from March 1st, they have finally stopped the multi-buys taking off the full value if you are purchasing reduced items. :(

    Sorry if I'm repeating something already said.

    Thank you. In W I bought my regular two loaves of Hovis rtc 69p each, £1.20 multi came off (offer is 2 for £1.50). This was on Monday 2nd March ...

    Maybe it has only stopped on selected items rather than everything?

    Me and technology tonight - not having any luck:(. Printer now not printing the voucher I've sent to it. Ah - :idea:I know what the problem is... sorted now and success! Expiry 1st April - how appropriate:p:(:rotfl:.

    The idea was that I bought into A's mbuys only when there was a trigger and I completely avoided being drawn into them when the mbuys were expensive and the item (the Quorn Chicken Style Fillets) is on better single-unit half price elsewhere:money:. Of course I also went for an mbuy on the Carrots as they're not on mbuy in A:rotfl: - and compare to Morries favourably!
