Yes I did. Unfortunately we had to have an emergency section so I am not really getting about too well at the minute (hence the need for easy, quick meals)
But we have another beautiful boy to add to the family now
Congratulations!
Nanny, I hope all went well today x'I solemnly swear that I am up to no good'0 -

Yes, the Glade Candles were the other new mbuy in M (I mentioned Pringles and Belvita earlier). Were £2. Now - do you think the mbuy offer will be better than 2 for £4? What do you think?
Obviously £4.83 individual price and 2 for £5.00!:eek::eek::rotfl:
Not funny though is it really, getting people to buy twice as much and pay them more. I thought this practice was criticised in the recent Competition and Markets response to the Which? "super-complaint", but seems no sign of it ending. Might you I don't much mind it when we take advantage of it at A:rotfl:.
That said, about pricing going onto nearly always more expensive mbuy offers or mbuy that are the same price and make no saving, just require double or triple to be bought now compared to a previous single unit price (I think the only exception I can think of is the 5 for £1 sweets offer and, even then I'm not convinced that the sweets have not been 20p at some point in the past), we are still being charged more at fuel stations where we don't have the luxury of a competitor fuel station nearby. I think the Competition Commission, or whoever it is, did a report way back in 2000 and thought that that was against the public interest, but felt no action could be taken as it might have an adverse effect in other ways if action was taken. It's still going on of course and, if my recollection is correct, it's still against the public interest (therefore means nowt) even if no action is or was ever to be taken:mad:. What is the point of having laws if suppliers can operate against the public interest and no action be taken?0 -

Can anyone help with a question about online APG please?
I had a delivery today from A and expect an APG from it. I would like to spend this APG near to xmas. Is there a way to delay it by a couple of weeks, or would it just be best to claim it then do a dummy and cancel?
I think you have 28 days to claim after the shop, and then the vouchers last 28 days?
