    Thought the Bacardi was only £15 though as that's what it is online but apparently online offer only. Still got it as I need a bottle for a Christmas present anyway and MSM showed it as £15 at M not £16...

    All the 3v had been taken off the gift card rack I noticed today.

    The Morries I was in yesterday still had loads on the shelf, wish I'd known they had them sooner as I could at least have gotten some cheap fuel. The Tosco stores I visit haven't had any for ages. I don't expect to see them back in this form either, I fail to believe Raphael's bank ever made any money off of them. It was good while it lasted :)
  • Thanks aau1
  • Here's an example of a lovely A v M c&c from 4 hours ago. I got very lucky in that not only did all the bottles of spirits compare to the correct M price, I only actually paid £15 for each of them on my receipt bringing each litre bottle down to £10..:D

    Also, the sausages didn't appear on my receipt and I wasn't charged for them..:D

    Bells showing as £15 both on Asda and MSM so I assume the glitch is not working anymore

    Well after my daughters good news last week its been a bit of a week. As you know she got married in August and had a bit of a problem with her Hen night. Anyway at that point her so called friends were very !!!!! and her work friend and I advised her to cut all ties. Well they came to the wedding and 2 of them got very drunk and didnt behave very well. She has been arranging a Halloween party and decided to cancel it this week as they have been causing her stress again. She sent a text to one of them who replied with a curt message and then before she could text the others she got a couple of quite nasty messages from the others. Anyway after a tirade of messages she has finally taken my advice and deleted them from her phone and facebook and blocked them.
    Anyway I hope that will be that. Arent girls nasty?
    She had a call from her midwife making her 1st appt which is good but her hubby had a letter from the ENT specialist as he has had an ear problem and apparently its a Cholesteatoma and he will need surgery. ( its a growth of skin cells in the ear after an infection or perforated eardrum - he has had both ) Has anyone any experience of this condition?

    The Bacardi Carta Blanca is £15 in M instore - I saw it yesterday. Unless it has gone up to £16 today. APG should have used £15 as that's the price on the relevant Monday and Wednesday, regardless of what may happen in M afterwards, but appears to have picked up £16. Unless it is £16 'offer' in M instore (you're making me doubt myself now:rotfl:).

    I hope you didn't pay £18.50 originally on those 1L bottles:rotfl:.
    Those Sharwoods are pretty expensive though:eek::rotfl: when they are cheaper than £1.69 in A. Fancy putting the price down and making the shop more expensive:(:laugh:!

    well done sfsb :T

    Were you expecting to be charged £15 for spirits... might take a look around asda's booze aisle later.
    No, they were all £18.50 when I placed the order last night. The Smirnoff is still £18.50 online so might still be good to go for a cc/hd. The Whyte & Mackay was subbed with a Bells so not sure if that'll work or not.

    The sausages are 80p each rtc in my local so I bought 10 expecting an apg for £7.90 bringing the cost down to a penny each. However, I think £7.90 on a zero spend is so much better!!:D

    Never noticed that Savvy. Maybe I should ring Asda House to complain..:rotfl::rotfl:
