    Hi Izzeyb, firstly thanks for posting these, can you explain how you found these, are you finding this all out online or going instore to check offers etc?

    Morning Neas, if you click on one of the links, it will bring up the link save offer. If you change the last digit of the link to the next number, it will bring up another offer, and so on. Some of the offers have not populated yet (sometimes they never do). On the date the offer is due to start, check after the morning update. If the offers are showing but the individual boxes are red, it is possible the offer has missed the update.

    As to when the offers come to an end, that is more pot luck by going back and checking the offers as no-one knows for sure when Asda offers end (unless you have insider info); then you need a good memory or a little system ;) or both. And a little help from Google page monitor or Distill Web Monitor.

    Not all the offers appear on link saves though, especially the toiletry ones.

    Waitrose this morning:

    Lynx gift set - £1.25 (they only had Africa, not sure if they stock any others) - thanks Tiny Shoes/Hot UK Deals
    Sweet Shop Tin 750g - £1.25 (was £2.50 the other day)
    Ferrero Rocher Pyramid 350g - £2.20
    Cadbury's Occasions 245g - 75p
    Swizzels Love Hearts tube 108g - 25p
    Thorntons the Snowman Crispy Chocolate Snow Balls - 25p
    Christmas Waitrose Christmas Selection Box 800g (box of chocs bit like Quality Street, but I think nicer) - £1.25

    They had the Lindor 200g box at £1.22 but it is only the Orange flavour that is reduced - think this was Tiny Shoes again, but cant find post now :)

    They didnt have any McVities Victoria Biscuits or Family Circle left, but member of staff doing the reductions thought they would be half price which would make the Mcvities £1.25 now and the Family Circle 75p, if you can find them.

    They also have their own Christmas Cake making kit, was reduced to £5 but is now £2.50.

    Anyone with coupons, the Covent Garden Soup is now £1.05 in Waitrose.

    Asda this morning - their Christmas Chocolate Yule log 40p from £3 (has today's date though).

    Which member of Elite bought one of these yesterday thinking they were buying a lovely looking luxury cake to have some with tea ... only to get it home and find it was a cake making kit :o.

    Must pay closer attention :).

    I think the sels show when an offer is due to end, which may help us!

  • I dare not add up how many kilos of chocolates, sweets and biscuits are now in my home, but every time I open a cupboard door it seems I find another lot that I'd forgotten about - today I discovered a large box of Bendincks that were on offer from my November Ocado order, and an unopened tin of Fox's that were an autumn gift.

    And most of my Tesco weekend loot is still in my car. And DD is on a diet and the little ones are not allowed any more (mainly because their own stash is likely to last till Easter....)

    Ooops.

    Also it seems I have enough laundry and cleaning items to see me through till next December. Ditto shower gel and shampoo etc.

    Good start for 2016 for the shopping budget though. :j

    Probably old news but got 2 of the Cadburys Delicious double chocolate fingers with knobs on in T last night. Used 2 50p coupons and they are 2 for £2 atm
    So £1 for 2 boxes
    The dates are up until Easter 2016 so they have been well hidden:)

  • My boots order is still there and points still there but I got a gesture of goodwill this morning any body else

    I'm sure Mr shoes are up the wall with this one. This is my journey.
    Ten orders placed of 2x. Orla Kiely products to receive 500 points for each order.
    400000 points showing to be received but actually received and spent 180000 over six orders which have now been cancelled.
    My points went down to zero and then 18700 worth were added again which I then spent but that order was also cancelled. In total I had seven orders cancelled but only received emails about three of them!! I have also up to now only been charged for nine of the ten orders.
    Last night I received 580,640,580,620 points!! And that is how my points balance remains at the moment £24.20 so I have not received the points from the initial offer yet. If I receive them I'm happy to keep the products if I don't they are going back. The postman has just been with the only HD order I did and tbh I'm not overly impressed with the packaging of the Orla Kiely stuff it's quite a feint design were as her stuff is normally far bolder. At £13-14 per present I'm happy but I would not have paid £24 which was the original price.
    Stinky I really am grateful for you posting this it added a bit of excitement to the week haha. Good luck everyone I hope you get the glitch orders.

    Unfortunately Anon unlike !!!!!! and Morries, I dont think Asda put end by dates on their SEL tickets. I believe sometimes the day/night before offer ends there may be some marker, but not sure. For me it is easier to check on line than trail to store (I am surrounded by Tesco stores, not Asda stores).

    According to the weather app, winds are peaking about now with gusts up to 60mph.

    Can't begin to think what 100mph must feel like:o
