Her school starts early! School in August! I hope she comes home happy with lots of new friends.

We live over the border in the land of Jocks, our holidays are slightly different to ones down south. Yes so do I! Off to collect her in 5 minutes so fingers crossed she's enjoyed it.

Is the individual pack of Mentos Fruits (38g) really straight 60p in A? Not 3 for £1 like the Mentos Mints? If Mentos Fruits is 3 for £1 instore, then buy 3 and, hopefully, 60px3 vs 47p each for M.

:think:Ignore me - one in M is Mentos Fruits. The one showing as Mentos Fruits on msm at 60p is Mentos Rainbow Fruits 38g on a.com. Mentos Fruits 37.5g is straight 75p on a.com. Maybe 75px3 vs 47px3:rotfl: - if only 3 for £1!

I did not go to the depth of getting the weight of the Mentos Fruits in M:(, so I don't whether they are 38g or 37.5g - it makes a difference* - I wish I had but I thought they would be the same weight everywhere - you'd assume they were the same wherever they were bought, but we have had different pack sizes before and they react differently on the APG as they are different products - if there's a new pack size, maybe one version will not appear on the APG (and therefore act as a trigger if, indeed, it is on 3 for £1 instore and not straight full price as showing online).

Thank goodness for my pedantry, but not completeness on this occasion:(.

*Branded products have to be the same weight, so a difference of 0.5g will make them non-comparable. Out of interest (or not), I understand that this is not true of Sains BM, at least not if it is the same as it was several years ago, where, even though the T&Cs say products have to be the same weight, this is not strictly applied in practice and products are sometimes compared even if the weights differ very slightly. (If anyone wants the source for this information, I can try to find it.)

G visited updating on kitchen telling me looks like Monday for finishing it its never ending.

He also told me decorator was doing something near front window and :eek: the window cracked :eek:

So G was telling me new window unit been ordered and would take 5 days so I pulled my face and said 5 days and its now being done tomorrow morning :T:T:T

I been in kitchen when G went and its an hair line fracture . New window will be nice because I can't reach that window and upvc had turned a funny colour. I joked with decorator and told him to crack back kitchen window lol he just laughed

Think when kitchen done and window at front needs cleaning inside I will ask window cleaner to come in when I see him

Decorator says finishers wont have much to do because he been cleaning as he doing his job :j:j:j

Update: Mums toilet seat. The fittings arrived yesterday. So she said she was messing with seat from 6pm till 12-30 last night (god knows what she was doing) and toilet seat itself broke :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: So she needs a new toilet seat . I would have bought a new one in first place

Well done tweets just noticed you are over the 4 stone mark

Crikey! I probably know more about their stock than they do:rotfl::rotfl:.

It's alright - after a morning spent staring at various food colourings online to see if any of them are comparable to any in M - I think the only one I found last time (2 or 3 years ago) was the Hundreds Thousands and that's not on offer in M, but no luck, it seems there is no equivalent to Pink Glimmer Sprinkles in A - I'm on a roll with my pedantic examination of things today:rotfl:.:T:rotfl:

It's repetitive you see - Mixed Licensed Plate, Mixed Licensed Bowl... suits me completely fine!

It's repetitive you see... No, alright:rotfl:!
