    Alright I'll leave you all for now.
    My M list is good as it goes but still has more items to be added. NYC soups, Glorious soups (600g) at £1 in M. (There are some 600g 'fresh' soups at 89p in Lidl, which is very just more than 10% off £1. However, I see why NYC soups might be better with Shopitize.) A full appraisal of all bin liners and refuse sacks, in theory, in M. Those are the main ones still to be considered, plus a few more.

    I hope to have a complete, fully comprehensive list done by later tonight (Thursday night) or Friday. I'll continue 'towards the weekend' with it later. See you soon:wave:.

  • I was peeved with the Ice-cream & the Bakewell as they SHOULD have compared BUT that's the problem with a Morries against Asda shop. I feel far safer with a Tesco shop!
    It was a little of a muggle shop, as is the one tomorrow, although I'm expecting an APG of between £24-£25 this time. I expected around £20 last time but only got £15+. However the £10 pressies from A's means I can get my pressies early at a good price.

    We've actually just started shopping in Aldi & Lidl & I must admit we're impressed so far. Even Aldi cheap frozen peas taste great, are more like garden fresh petit pois , their chips are 89p for 1.5kg & they have 400gm packs of ham (offcuts BUT the ones we had were huge slices with 1/2" off the bottom) for £1.65 & very tasty they were too. Makes me wonder now why I ordered 2 gammon joints for tomorrow? They can go in the freezer for Xmas.

    There are quite a few things I think are better tasting & also cheaper than the big 4/5. The above + coleslaw, quiches, frozen lamb shanks, ice-cream. Looking forward to trying more things as we were pleasantly surprised at everything we've bought so far.
    Have to go really early though, or really late as it's like a scrum in there during 'normal' daytime hours. FAR too many people for me to feel comfortable! Then again ours has a HUGE catchment area so they need to build more in a load of smaller towns.
