    M 2 for £1, so don't be thinking it's safe to buy as a filler on TBG vs M:rotfl:. Same appears true of the Orange version too - and TBG might even pick up M full price:eek: as I found no evidence of any mbuy SEL specific to Orange in any of my stores, although, by their location, they 'clearly' were on the poorer mbuy there. As "clear" as can be anyway - somewhat by implication though:(.

    Agree stick with the single malts, johnnie walker is a blend:o, there are lots of singles to choose from glen morangie is a nice one and Jura but best avoid laphroaig very acquired taste that one.

    I'm not a whisky buff but laphroaig is the very thing for me. Might taste a bit odd to someone the first time they tried it.:beer:

    M list is now updated to Wednesday. Some extra items have sneaked onto the list and not all of them are in bold - so the list is now bigger and better than before!:D:rotfl: In other words, perhaps, to cover up items that I've previously been missing:o:rotfl::rotfl:.

    If they're in bold, they won't work yet (if they ever work at all - that's a little pessimistic of most of them though). Those items that I've added elsewhere into the list but not put into bold, they've clearly been in M before today's collection and haven't changed in pricing. The Noodles have been added as SP now either seems expensive or is no longer available - so, it's range changes, that sort of thing. I'm going into the detail aren't I, getting those individual sweets and chocolate packs:rotfl:?

    Again, some of these - like the Noodles - get added sometimes not because they are the absolute best price but because they aren't on msm and just to let you know not to try to get at A's higher pricing. If they're already on msm, or if A is on r'back pricematch, they tend not to be considered good enough for the list. I am aware of them - they are deliberate omissions*! For example, this time the Ambrosia Devon Dream 260ml does not make the list as A is pricematched so it's very little APG. Now, if it were high price and unseen mbuy...;):cool::D:rotfl:

    There's also ordering within various brands and different flavours of items - this has been present for a long time on the M list but just to draw it more to your attention - the ones that are 'better' i.e. more weight are put first and then it goes descending weights, until the weight becomes so much less I start frowning after it - otherwise, the list often (though I have not quite sorted it out yet this way this time) runs in alphabetical order when it does different flavours of a certain item. There is a very logical order to it all!

    *You may have noticed (or maybe not) that my post earlier about what are expected to be the new Aldi offers only included five items and not all six of the "Super6". This, again, was deliberate - I don't consider the Little Gem Lettuce at 39p to represent good value, for what you get. And, on that item, whoopsies could be cheaper. So, that was a deliberate omission. If I don't mention it, either it's because not every flavour is on offer - or it could be because some of the items are not considered by me to be good enough. So, I was buying only the Conference Pears and none of the other items on Aldi's offers last time (all but the Pears were too expensive for me:laugh:). Now, I might be buying from 5 out of 6 of them:rotfl:.

    Okay now, goodnight/good morning!:wave:

    Evening Elite. Struggling to keep up on here lately as my Berry Bear is stressing, don't know if I had said that vet thinks he has signs of dementia :(

    Anyway, just seemed to be caught up at right moment to say that Laphroaig was Mr 3Dogs' favourite malt of all time, so he would recommend it. But I hate it, too peaty/smokey for me. Malt whisky is a minefield as tastes vary so much

    Night Night all :beer:

    Evening

    I'm laid up and have been for a couple of days. Low platelet count. Nosebleeds and outrageous bruises from minor brushes with appliances and stuff.

    Not a huge bargain for most but might be of interest to those with a handbag fetish :D £118 for a bag isn't cheap but it's not bad if you like the bag which retails here for between £220-£250 and slightly less if you buy from Macy's.

    Massively reduced and a code on the page for 25% off but only available in 2 colours. The rest are full price.

    http://www1.macys.com/shop/product/michael-michael-kors-selma-medium-satchel?ID=2638601&CategoryID=26846&LinkType=&fromPage=contextPage

    Nice bags and quality but I just don't like the designer name plastered over the front :o too overstated for me. my daughter does however and I've bought her the purple one. Qualifys for free shipping and on past experience, I've had stuff from Macy's in around a week.

    Also Agent Provocateur purse spray for a decent price.

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Agent-Provocateur-Parfum-Natural-Purse/dp/B005XANLBC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1449617029&sr=8-1&keywords=perfumes+agent+provocateur+purse

    not cheap cheap I know, but sometimes special presents aren't. these are my last 2 presents. I'm not happy about being forced into being organised but I am *sigh* I prefer the last minute adrenalin rush.

    FC very good prices but do you know how much the import taxes will be? Very tempted as dd has used her bag from last xmas all the time but have paid horrendous import tax sometimes.
