Also on MSE there is a page called the DEMOTIVATOR - in it you put details of what your secret vice is and how much it costs you and how often. It then works out what this is annually and how many weeks you have to work to pay for it and what it is over a lifetime.

We had a call from eldest child last week and she was in a coffee shop en route to work :eek: - yes they are supposed to be saving and she is supposed to be a reformed character.

So I sent her the link - it works out that a daily coffee fix costs her nearly 2 weeks wages, over £600 which would get them a couple of nice weekend breaks if they applied budget constraints

I also tried it with OHs over priced magazines but as he only gets them now about once a month the results were not as dramatic.

My only really expensive vice is trips to the hairdressers but I extend the time between appointments now with mid month top ups with pound shop hair colour - and anyway I'm worth it :rotfl:

This site has taught me not to have any secret vices. Not ones that cost me money anyway. I Used to love the odd McFlurry, but they are now £1.39 so that is out of the window! I don't drink coffee, I think my only secret vice is treating myself to the pleasure of getting a decent DTD once in a while And that most certainly is not expensive.

I have got an amazing amount free through DTD from T in the last few years. Off the top of my head I got a nice RC car, a nice iron, a shaver, an epilator, a George Foreman grill and this actifry. And they are the high price ones, can't remember the low price ones I've got!! To be honest I only managed the Actifry because there was a new assistant on the CS desk, wouldn't have dared if it had been any of the ones I know (and know me!!) :eek:

Evening all :wave:

There's been lots going on here so I've not had much chance to get MSE time. Been the 5th anniversary of my Dad's death, worked a run of nights and my granddad is in ITU. His cancer has spread and now they are just trying to keep him comfortable There also seem to be endless school events and the boys social calendar has been busier than mine :cool: Did manage a trip to the cinema to watch Spy with DH at the weekend and enjoyed using my soon to expire student discount

Popped on to see if there was any news on Mrs S and it seems that the littlest stink has arrived :T:T Well done hun and huge Congratulations x

Sorry to hear about your grandad.

I sympathise. I have before got stuck trying to get out of bed.

I thoroughly recommed the Votarol gel, it is a miracle in a tube.
Must watch what painkillers you take when using it but once rubbed in you don't need painkillers. The trapped muscle then gets a chance to relax as not in pain and tends to release itself.

Sorry I was too late posting for you to get some tonight.

Thankyou, will keep it in mind, I woke up pain free this morning, and have been for a little walk with the dog, and my legs are not hurting at all this morning, strange!!!!!!

Thanks for the pm Hillbern. In the scheme of things we are close but not close enough sadly, oh well.
Well done on the Actifry Enterprise, what a result. I haven't got one but I have heard that they are really good.
Have a lovely day everybody. I am going to try and get out into the garden at some stage as we don't get many good days.

It seems 11+ doesn't process (break!) the new APG in same way, but the 11+ multi does (12 item multi on baby food reported yesterday).

If this is the case, as I understand it the main difference with the new APG under normal rules is that it does not (explicitly) use MSM for its prices, and as a result some of the comparable items on own brand (like Shades) have changed. Otherwise, if the multi is not on A website at a certain point (midday?) then still good to go for glitches? That appeared to be the case when peoe were comparing over recent weeks, with the main difference being missing comparible items, items appearing on A side that MSM had missed as they were on A (and no 11+)?

Is that right?

Many thanks

It does appear that the multi still kicks in for RTC in-store so that's good I don't think they know it's RTC, it's just a price and a N for £ to the apg.

Limiting the quantity of each sku to 10 appears to be Asda policy and gives us the missing >10 multi, regardless of who built the apg system this is always going to work as it's in the specification :rotfl:.

11+ in-store was hilarious, I expect it was simply a bug in the capping code, perhaps the 10 cap had been pre-calculated from the website price to save processing time? (Although I would expect that to actually be slower to process lol).

I think that the new apg works in a similar way to old - in that they have the multiples database taken from A com, price database from in-store (and com for CC/HD), competitor database scraped from websites early hours and the product link database (instead of msm), I'm unsure when these databases are updated - perhaps midday still ?

Shame about the shades (and porridge tubes) but it does appear that msm had got different grades mixed up.

Think from now there will be more reliance on trial and error and sharing results / wombles like sals cravendale glitch.

Oh, btw has anyone else noticed the mobile site is redirecting to desktop now?

I think what your saying is correct on multis both 11+ and rtc.


this is what T&Cs say about pricing
14.1. Tesco, Sainsbury's, Waitrose and ASDA prices are updated by 12pm every day using web scans of their grocery home shopping sites. If you perform a check prior to 12pm, prices may not have been updated on the Asda Price Guarantee yet. In exceptional circumstances, our prices and the prices of some or all of our Competitors may be updated after 12pm. In this scenario, prices reflected on your comparison will be the prices of the previous day.


I'm off now to pick up C&C so will have a good browse while I'm there. I don't think timing is brilliant but, hey ho, there you go

HI all!

I hope everyone is well here.
My daughter is looking for some extra pocket money, so any ideas where to start from? She is 12, very responsible, mature. Thought of some dog walking locally? What about selling some lemonade? Are we allowed to sell it in front of our house?

Our local college had courses for babysitters - things like first aid, coping techniques etc so our eldest did this and got a certificate. She then put an advert in the local shop and ended up with a regular Saturday night job.
Oddly it was someone in her brothers class - only 2 years younger but his parents didn't trust him on his own. So her Saturday nights were watching videos and eating snacks and getting paid :T

She then got a waitress job at a local hotel and she was doing this for a few months. They then realised that as she was then only 15 it was illegal to employ her so just before Christmas she was sacked. When she got to 16 in the January she was taken on again

This was in the days though just before health and safety reared its ugly head. Her brother, only 2 years younger could not get any Saturday job until he was 16 - his work experience was partly in a local butchers so that is how he got his job - £28 every week

Chrisv this is the tile with it's metric size.

Only downside this particular tile is some of them like the reviews say were slightly different size so you need a very good tiler who can make allowances for this. There was quite a bit of wastage partly due to size of bathroom too.

Thanks TS, that helps a lot :T The border tile looks nice too
