:eek: No thanks don't know why you need that many the tick tocking would drive me mad.
I don't set clocks on micro or cooker because I switch them off at the sockets. :money:
I agree they drive me mad to:o:o. Espeacily the grandfather clocks they have loud ticks and we have 4, oh repairs antique clocks and does a bit of dealing that's why we have so many, he also repairs them for a few of the antique dealers locally,0 -

I noticed some price increases by A on not-so-smart (except for them) prices.
You probably didn't notice one other, completely unrelated item disappear from the M list earlier in the week just because they are trying to annoy me - up, down, up, down, back up again seemingly in the space of days.
Now, this, having gone up and down twice and now back up again.
SP Mild Grated Cheddar recently gone up, this time to £2.41:eek: (last time's price increase was £2.34), M still £2.21.
Also SP UHT Milks have gone up to 65p:eek:! Highest price I think I've ever seen. On the 'right' one of them, A being as expensive now as Sains:eek::rotfl:, but fortunately still 49p in T and M.
To offset it though - were you ever really going to buy this already before I now mention it?;):
SP Pork Pies have gone down to 89p:T. This may actually be a "Smart" item to buy. Best price I've seen for a while. I think it may be slightly cheaper now than before it had its price hikes everywhere 2 or 3 years ago. Or, maybe not, as would have had a 10% off that before T, S and M raised their prices (unless you have staff discount now - and, on that point, receipts where the discount card is used rarely give any good return as makes A way cheaper - however, and I managed to get the staff receipts twice:( - I did have one earlier that turned out to be cheaper in Sains. even after they used the discount:eek: - in fact nearly £2 APG. Would have been over £6 though if they'd not used the card!:(:mad::rotfl:).
SP Pork Pies now lose out vs T and M and, maybe, the equivalent ought to be bought in T or M. However, they 'may' be a good filler vs S (which no longer stocks any equivalent, hasn't done for a while) and W. I say "may", as you'd never have bought them if I hadn't posted this post!:D:rotfl::(:rotfl::A
So, in summary, the message is: keep the UHT Milks and the SP Pork Pies separate from each other:rotfl:.
I've in fact had them buying UHT Milk:T:T - everyone, all of a sudden, seems to be buying UHT Milk (perhaps the price increase has now put it to the same price as the other, more expensive own brand UHT milk so that they now look at the two more clearly and think it's worth buying:rotfl:?) - unfortunately on both the receipts I've had so far, they bought not enough items:(.
The story of the necklace, isn't there?, or some other similar item. It was on an offer of about £2 in a shop. The sales figures were: the shop didn't sell many of that particular colour, people thought it stood out and was 'too cheap' (in the sense of something wrong with it). Shop put the price up to £12:eek::eek: - roughly same price as the other versions on the same hangers. People now bought it in droves, possibly due to the perception that putting expensive-priced items together tends to make them seem less expensive and nothing comparatively cheaper put with them! True story (the product type might be misremembered) - the product's placing and placing alongside items of particular prices - it can have a huge effect on the average customer and what they buy or don't!0 -

Managed to get a few freebies today at Ideal Home, 4 free any day tickets and this lot... I'm seriously questioning what kind of consumer they're targeting :rotfl:'I solemnly swear that I am up to no good'0 -

Is anyone else having issues with the APG site?
I've found a few receipts getting the 'Wait 3 hours' message despite being a number of hours over...
I've tried different browsers, checking numbers etc.0 -
