I did this morning after picking up DD2 she was not impressed with the detour having been up at 5am to get to the airport. Thank goodness flight home was not cancelled.

I will try and do a pic later of the free gift, it was not the free gift posted on HUKD, I think it's a smaller version not so many EA products, but still 3 nice little gifts for £8. The Nail varnish sets are lovely. :T

Glad you got it jammy:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

:(The Oetker pizzas are nearly all £1.50 on a.com. Somehow msm has got the tip-off that they are going to be £2.50. (Irrelevant as they don't use msm anymore.) Only the Bolognese pizza is £2.50 (on .com), which I don't think compares (certainly not against M).

I'll put the pizzas back to £1.50 A on the M list:rotfl::(.

It's typical that they might have this one at £2.50, so that, even if the muggle customer checks the APG, they don't have to give a refund against anywhere:mad:.

Dr. Oetker Ristorante Bolognese Pizza (375g)



£2.50 66.7p / 100g

Although, surely, if you liked Dr Oetker pizza and (as an 'ordinary' customer that wasn't doing a targetted shop (and was therefore paying over the odds:rotfl:)) saw lots at £1.50 and this at £2.50, you'd buy the ones at £1.50? Unless you really liked Bolognese version specifically. For those who like to pay £1 more just for Bolognese pizza:rotfl::wall:. Then again I wouldn't put it past my muggles simply to pick the most costly but inefficient one anyway. And almost no use having this even on a womble as it doesn't add to the APG (except for the extremely unlikely possibility that they've somehow picked up a 1p error on a non-existent item in M:rotfl:) - although at least it doesn't detract from it (as long as they've not picked up an error of some extreme high price elsewhere:(:laugh:). I was going to write "no use" but I've now put "almost" no use, as I can see some extremely limited use for it. The *only* use is if they have bought exactly 7 other different items that appear and this one was added to the shop, making 8:D. That's the only use whatsoever that I can see for this item that would actually help us:rotfl:.

Hi Everyone,

I've found you again. I thought the Elite had disappeared for good.

Hope everyone is well, I will read back.

The other day I noticed the UDIs were back in stock in one of my stores but I still can't order.

Cheers,

I know. I had one of them buying unnecessary 3 for £12 on these the other day - and still resulting in them overpaying on this product compared to Sains.

(Though it is better contribution to our potential for an APG for them to buy three, even if :(they get the mbuy deduction on the comp. Rather than them buying just one pack - and still overpaying:D - that doesn't contribute as much APG. It would be better for them to buy two though:rotfl:.)

So I thought Bespoke Offers were doing well by offering me a Beat My Price option on 4 different things today so that I could use the replacement £25 code they sent me yesterday before they close up shop on Monday ......:T




shame their payment page isn't working :think:

Has anyone ever tried the dried tortellini pasta that is one of Lidl's weekend offers this week?

Wondering whether to get any. Was a bit of a debate on the Lidl thread whether it was going to be dry or fresh but was confirmed this morning it is the dry variety.

Talking about unnecessaries, the Bisto frozen meals have [Strike]gone up[/Strike] stayed at the same price as before on the new 3:eek: for £3 mbuy. There's just no need to buy three times! Talk about encouraging overbuying and paying them more (which, of course, is in their interests and they're doing their job). It probably will see the muggles buying three times what they would previously have done simply for the same price they paid before. However, for us, we can stick to buying just one. They are now £1.18 individual price - but still £1 each at T and M. Actually, I'm not sure whether anyone should really be going for Bisto meals these days, given that own brand packs (which have been larger) have gone down to 85p in the past - they may not be that now but there are, surely, better values to be had on own brand products of higher weight elsewhere? Normally, I'd go for Iceland - 500g:D on own label there rather than 375g Bisto - although those Iceland meals have gone up in price recently, from 89p to £1.00.(:eek::rotfl::(.)

No mbuy saving at all to be had on the new 'deal' in A (from my POV), even if the receipts now say there is one. It's a loss of £2 as you'd have to buy three packs instead of the one you did before. And it represents no saving at all compared to the previous straight £1 price - it's only because they are now £1.18 individual and that overpayment on each one is now being "saved" by the mbuy. So, if you're overpaying, to "save", the net result is you're not saving at all in my view (unless your saving was more than your overpayment - due to the price increase for one pack - which, here, it is not. It's exactly the same: just overcharging you if you are buying one or two).

Mines the fresh tiny. At least I'm sure it was on offer today as I went down for the offers and picked it out of fridge. Almost sure it was 30 odd pence but don't have receipt now. Hth xx
