    Hi I believe they are lilac.

    Good Evening all. Went to Waitrose in Chester today amongst other places and it took me ages to get my shop up to £40 :eek: I had 3 £8 off £40 spends :eek: and an offer for free lamb worth up to £4 when I bought a leg of lamb. Was wanting to use all 3 in one shop but only managed the one :o. Dear shop lol

    Please can I ask is this at Broughton?
    I've not been in this direction for a very long time - still seething about the loss of the city centre Waitrose :)

    EDIT: I think Giant Rainbow Button has disappeared from msm. Saw it was no longer on a.com several days ago and that it was showing OOS, and threatening to drop off, msm. I think that is your lack of item. Unfortunately I was a little tardy myself and have only got round to deleting the Giant Button from the M list earlier this afternoon. It should not be there as it's no longer on the APG, so no good as a filler. I think that's your missing item, sadly.

    In my store, when Giant Button was showing OOS, I only had Giant Buttons and no White Mice:(, even though White Mice showing fine. No good. They haven't actually ran out of White Mice though, as they have returned to that store now. However, Giant Button OOS on msm.

    No giant buttons in my store last night but Giant Mice were reduced to 5p - these still appeared on the APG last night.

    Hi mhoc, don't think emerald is about at the moment so hope you don't mind me answering this. No its not at Broughton Shopping Park its at Boughton (no r) on the Tarvin road into Chester. Not too far to walk from the city centre, just straight on down past Boots, Primark etc. hth

    In W tonight, I don't know if the CS overrode the transaction but I did not get the discount off the rtc bread :(.

    ** Hovis 2 for £1.50 ** £0 is showing on the receipt.

    Is this the end for my store ...

    A nice set of 8 items, making best of use of both visible and invisible trigger. Fortunately my Harpic W&S worked:eek:. Thanks to - myself:o for noticing that the Domestos was now on msm but to rockyrose for helping and confirming it is now on the comps. I prefer Blueberry Moments but I caved in on that (too much heart-stopping on the Harpic as it is:rotfl:) and chose the Strawberry (I like) and Caramel (I very likely will like but not sure) that were already confirmed earlier. Only to find... my Caramel has shorter BB date anyway:(:(:rotfl:.

    I was going to buy Strawberry Whip on my last vs T shop, but my store was OOS:(. So, with my store back in stock now, I decided to give it a go vs Morries in case it picked up a cheaper or same M price. It should be N/A versus everywhere and indeed it is, due to being outside weight range of T (and M). (S and W do not stock.) :eek:It could have gone against me if it had picked up price and adjusted M's price upwards somewhat. Should be 15p for M's lower weight or 17p not sure - if the latter it could have lost me a penny or so!:((:rotfl: on the fact it's only a penny). I am price-protected on the SP Yogs. despite A's price increase:D.

    White Mice appears - but check every hour in case it disappears from msm:rotfl:. (I also check a.com just in case it threatens to go from msm in a few hours after my shop. I did have a fail on some SP biscuits that disappeared vs Waitrose ages and ages back that went OOS shortly after I'd got the shopping done. If White Mice is still on a.com, then my thinking is it will remain on msm long enough. But if I find White Mice at any point goes OOS or disappears on a.com, even if it is on msm at that point, I will then avoid it (at least as a counting item) as it could then very soon disappear from msm and result in a not-enough-items fail as did my W shop years ago.)
