Cereal bars would have compared much better had u put them in a morri bob comparison and not Ts.

I thought this the other day, when someone compare vs £1.69 each at T, but I didn't want to say anything:o. If buying vs T, it would be 'better' to add an item such as Nutri-Grain Breakfast Bakes as that is on the 3 for £3 offer in T and need 3 appearing items that compare against T to get £1 individual price. Otherwise, it's not really a mix with Carex as best on cereal bars is against Morries (not available Northern Ireland) if not also buying Nutrigrain and Carex aren't against Morries.

Meanwhile... in Morries... on the other Nutrigrains, namely the Breakfast Bars there, it seems M have now cottoned on as now wanting people to buy 2 before they get 500 points:(. So, no good anymore. However, my store now had just the Apple version showing with the original offer of straight 500 points for one purchase but all points offers with same end date. I suspect it's POS material unchanged:( - I could be wrong but I reckon, if you buy one pack of apple, you'd get no "More" points and, if you buy two packs, you'd get half the number of points that might be expected from a 500 points SEL. But, who knows? Maybe they have kept the apple on? Breakfast Bars should be £2.18 M vs £1 in T, which, IMO, is no good if it's just 25p "More" off per pack (having to buy in twos).

Busy day tomorrow:(, and busy today, and Wednesday, and probably all week!:(:(:rotfl:

I'll get round to mentioning some additional things later. Meanwhile, for now, some "offers" from the RTC shelves in my stores, which vary store-specific. Can I interest anyone in any Chips Ahoys cookies?

Was £1.99, now: RTC £1.05:eek::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.

They've having a laugh!:rotfl: That's even more expensive than the old trial offer, and of course Waities 75p and much better earlier for us!! At one stage, we were being 'paid' to take away! So, as for £1.05, no thanks!

Equally ridiculous RTCs (I thought you'd like these) - Shredded Wheat 30 pack - due to damaged pack - down from £2.78 to £2.05:eek::eek:. :rotfl:They were down to £1.14 on special offer in Waities earlier in the year - and that got you pristine and not damaged packs!

Also, Dolmio Lasagne Kit - now, what do you reckon? Bearing in mind regularly on half price of £1.99 (and even that price nowadays being ignored by me as I consider that to be way too expensive for the amount of product in these sorts of packs). Well, here we are... was £3.99, now RTC £2.99:eek::eek::rotfl:.

It would have been ok to buy just one of the Sensitive/Aloe because it has the 2 for £2 offer showing on MSM.

I've had to think about this very carefully before answering. It a reply to a PM I got that I don't feel the need to keep private.

Yes, I do feel guilty and I don't need reminding that my Husband fought for his country.

My husband has had the very best of care available and more. He has had the most supportive family anyone could ever need. All good stuff but only useful if you realise you have to use that to help yourself. All the people in the world can help you....but you won't get better unless you use it to help yourself.

No I'm not doing my kids out of a Dad. I have chosen to do what I've done over the years. My kids didn't choose to be in the position they are in. They have very little childhood left and IVE made the decision that it should be a peaceful and worry free time for them. Yes, they will still love, care about and worry about their dad......but their worst nightmares......which, trust me!, are real, won't happen.

it might sound to you like I'm abandoning a war hero. I'm not. I'm making a choice between someone who has given up and people who have a whole life in front of them. It's a no brainer.

There's no animosity or dis-harmony. He knows he crossed the line. He knows what's he's done and is still doing to his kids. He knows I'd get torn and put the kids first. The kids will see him whenever and as much as they like.....it's not a big contentious break up. I will deal with his affairs because he wants me to continue doing that. I'll always make sure he's looked after. I won't have my kids getting up in the night checking like I've done for years......there's no need for a whole family of mini suicide watchers

I welcome all views and opinions but I don't feel the need to answer this privately. I hope that is sufficient

No-one is entitled to judge you FC. Do what you believe is right for you and your kids.
A close relative of mine hanged himself in the family home and was found by his children when they came home from school. They are still scarred by this many years later.

Take care x

Ive had this conversation before on here and in real life :eek:when printing
MoneySavingExpert.com is in red and no matter what your eyes see if someone at an early age says that is red then whatever colour you see it as it is red to you.
So how does this colour blindness work or is it that you can not differentiate between what I see as red and green for example

And what about pink? :eek:

Not necessarily, but they bought the wrong number.
Explanation: I've done Palmolive and bought 'normal' Antibac. and Sensitive, as no Kitchen version in my store (and needed two different ones to make up enough items:eek:). But maximum of one Sensitive only in a shop as that's showing mbuy; therefore, if it shows mbuy, need to get number that misses the mbuy on that.

So, they could have had 9 of the Antibac but 1 of the Sensitive and it would have worked.
