Off to try and get some sleep, at a friends DD baby shower tomorrow

So night if you are still up or morning if your not
I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.

Maybe there's a trigger somewhere to that Air Wick Double Unit, a trigger that isn't showing the mbuy:rotfl:.
This is strange pricing on msm, does this mean anything?
Air Wick Freshmatic Compact Unit - White
£3.00 any 2 for £6.00 £3.00 / / Freshener
Sadly it is now £6 price in M:mad: (it was showing that in my store last Wednesday) and not £3 price that it was just before Christmas.
All M prices, whenever I refer to them, are last Wednesday btw. Unless the context otherwise makes clear. (I'm stuck obsessively on Wednesday:rotfl:.)0 -
Terry's All Gold Milk (190g) and Dark (190g) were £1 in M, but I noticed 380g versions in A on £1.50 RTC a few days ago. Sadly I couldn't see any there yesterday, at least not in the place where they had been a few days earlier. Showing £3 online. Even if £1.50 instore, seems they're no good for anything better on CC/HD as no comparisons vs elsewhere, except that Dark is showing £7:eek: for W on msm! (I suppose you could order on CC/HD hoping them to be £1.50 instore in the hope that they substitute them with another product that might be worth more than £1.50? Whatever that is I don't know though:rotfl: - particularly as my base on big Toblerones (£2 in M btw) and Milk Trays seems to be 75p from past good comparison vs W and past glitching:rotfl:.)
Toblerones will not be making the list - I just mention them in passing - you wouldn't expect anything more than 75p to make it to there!0 -
I'll just mention the Mornflake Oat Granolas (500g) at £1 in M (msm saying expiry today so I won't be putting them onto the M list) - SP Muesli (1Kg) normally considered cheaper but these are different flavours - they aren't available for comparison from anywhere else - and I suppose they are at my 20p/100g price on cereals and similar products. They would be buy in M but looks like offer is ending today. Haiwaiian Crunch, Sultana & Apple (appears to be "Orchard" on msm), Traditional Crunchy (appears to be "Original" on msm) - 500g granolas.0

Quick question. My father in law is terminally with Cancer and my mother in law is in a care home very ill with dementia. They have both signed a DNR and for the 2nd time the hospital lost my FIL'S when he was in last week. Apparently you are not allowed to make a copy so we are not sure if he needs to make another. Anyone any idea? My husband and bil have power of attorney that will become active in about 3 weeks but until then we are not sure what to do.
*insomniac alert* I'm poorly and up trying to read myself back to sleep. I don't know of anyone answered this for you.
You aren't allowed to make a copy of a DNR for obvious reasons. I'm not sure how the original came to be lost as such an important document shouldn't be and especially not twice!! I'm assuming/hoping that the DNR are separate? As they are specific to the establishment they are in.
As for POA. There are now 2 seperate POA documents available. One deals with property and financial matters. The other deals with health and welfare. They are both very specific and if you want powers over all those things you have to apply for both. You can of course just apply for one if that's what the circumstances require. To have a say in any medical issues the health and welfare one is what you need.
These are currently not enforceable until they have been signed off by and received by you from the Office of the Public Guardian. This can take weeks longer than the old POA documents used to.
These are both now called a lasting POA. The old enduring POA is obsolete unless it was valid in 2007 before the changes.
As for your MIL, she will have had to have been of sound mind to sign POA documents. if she has dementia then it's likely that POA won't be granted without going through the courts.
It's nowhere near as simple a process as it used to be. And quite rightly so in my view.
I hope that is of some help and if not then it helped me fill my insomniac moment
Good luck with things. Not a pleasant time for your family. 0 -
These do look high price - are we sure they are not on mbuy (in A)? (There is one other version showing £2 for A online, so I suppose this is why I ask. Maybe these below are going from £3.49 and mbuy (perhaps 2 for £4:rotfl::wall:) to straight £2?:think:)
Birds Eye Inspirations Fish Chargrilled with Lemon & Herbs (2 per pack - 300g)
Birds Eye Inspirations Fish Chargrilled with Thai Coconut, Lemongrass & Chilli (2 per pack - 300g)
£3.49 £1.16 / 100g

Hi Savvy,
Can you confirm when Morrisons prices are updated for APG.
Tried Douwe Egberts, £3 in Morries, on Friday but failed to pick up price:beer:0 -
I notice the Bisto frozen ready meals now say 2 for £2 online. They were 3 for £3 - maybe some scope for confusion if buying 3 if they go through at 3 for £3 (or if they have old mbuy SELs and do not:rotfl:).0

Some of the Hartley LC 175g pot jellies are 34p in W, so don't make the M list (M 40p). I think we should be looking at 25p elsewhere or at some mbuy pricing rather than 50p.
Hartley's Low Calorie Raspberry Jelly (175g)
50p 28.6p / 100g
[Strike]69p[/Strike] 34p
[Strike]69p[/Strike] 34p
[Strike]70p[/Strike] 40p
Goodbye/good morning for now!:):wave:0 -
Hi Savvy,

It's tended to be on the evening after the price collections - so Tuesday evening and Thursday evening. The holiday period may have affected that. Certainly, by now, it should be on Wednesday's prices (I'd normally expect Wednesday's prices to be in the system on Friday, but maybe sometimes, early on Friday, it is on Monday if it updates on Friday itself).
Douwe Egberts possibly not £3 in M on Wednesday. We can't tell from msm:( - it looks like last date it has at £5.99 was 27th December, so might look like it was £3 by Wednesday but maybe it wasn't. I don't recall the smaller (190g) Douwe Egberts being £3 in M tbh. I thought some larger ones, of a different brand, were on offer. It looks like M may have had quite a changeover on Thursday this week, but (as I referred to earlier) all of that will be missed by the APG. They're still on Wednesday (or should be by now).0
