    Enjoyed Silent Witness, can't wait for tomorrow night :)
    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. :)

    It still seems to be available.:)

    I have just noticed that it says it can be used for other Wowcher deals.

    Further investigation is needed I think!:D

    Thanks don't usually check wowCher but just bought the approved foods deal for niece for her uni house. Sure they could do with some toilet roll etc and £5 for a £20 spend is good even having to buy the extra £5 of goods for free delivery.

    Wonder if these will start to work on TBG outside Northern Ireland (fwiw as even if it did would just be buying at M price):

    Nestle Quality Street Matchmakers - Yummy Honeycomb (130g)


    Store_1.15px.png
    £2.50 £1.92 / 100g
    Store_8.15px.png
    £1.00 *

    50p in M. I do not have any M that says this is an "RTC" price. (TBG says it does not compare RTC prices.) However, then again, neither do I have any M that has any price label at all for me.
    SFSB - these are better than the 75p price that once appeared online as an online only offer for M and was never going to work. However they are possibly worse than some glitch! Just don't let msm's word "Yummy" influence you:naughty:.

    Bassett's Jelly Babies carton (460g) is 75p in M. Which is a good job as the beggars at home scoffed all the previous one that I bought as part of :(2 for £2 three and half months ago. As regards determining the 75p price, I now have:

    (1) no stock at all or any evidence of the product in the M that did have it showing as 75p last week;
    (2) "£1.50 Reduced to clear Valid until 3rd January 2016" on the offer label in one store - clearly not as it scans at 75p (and was 75p last week, within the supposed validity of that offer, as was showing in the other store); and
    (3) £1.96 among an offer label that includes other sweets cartons plus also mentions Jelly Babies - clearly not £1.96 for the Jelly Babies:D that are OOS in that store:(.

    In short, no store at all whose price labels now tell me the 75p price that it really is:rotfl:.

    I tried one of the other cartons in store number (3) - sadly I couldn't do all of them - it scanned at £1.96 so it looks like it is just the Jelly Babies. I know it said the others are £1.96 but that does not mean they are:D. The Jelly Babies, which are OOS in that store anyway, clearly are not the £1.96 that it says they are, so I thought the others might not be £1.96 either. However, it seems they are £1.96:( (this is consistent with what the other store, that alerted me to the Jelly Babies in the first place, has always told me) but the Jelly Babies definitely still 75p now yesterday. TBG was comparing the Jelly Babies to £1.96:( - they are not. However, I think TBG ought to be even worse - it ought to be N/A as M is an RTC price and therefore leave people paying £4 for them in T! (It is a good job I do not collect or input the price data for the actual TBG!) Buy in M.

    I did notice it seems A has had these Jelly Babies cartons - they were not stocked in A but have been Tvs M before (vs worse pricing - namely 2 for £2 last September) - I note A does now have pricing stated on msm - however, typically, A is now showing OOS so I do not know whether this would ever appear on the APG. I have put this therefore as a 'buy in M'.

    Yazoo Mango & Pineapple Yogurt Smoothie (750ml)

    Store_1.15px.png
    £2.20 29.3p / 100ml
    Store_8.15px.png
    [Strike]£2.00[/Strike]
    £1.00

    Going from 2 for £2 to straight £1 in M again:wall:. So, you know what I say there now - it's the usual stuck record;) - no change there then!:p Also the Strawberry & Raspberry version in M at straight £1.

    I think I got through half of what I was supposed to be saying on one of my earlier posts:rotfl:.

    I mentioned earlier about making a judgement to keep items (particularly 'buy in M' items) on the list when I no longer have any evidence of them but suspect they are still available in some M somewhere. Also about items, particularly those that go onto RTC, eventually disappearing and me deciding, at some point, that M no stocks them. Sometimes I get to the point where I reach that conclusion and they drop off the list. I have the Jacobs Twiglets caddy now on 75p in M. I have two Ms that have Jacobs caddies and both of them now have only the Twiglets. I wonder whether others, that were £1 last week, are available at 75p in M somewhere though.

    On some completely separate product from M, I thought just now I was going to have to make a correction as I thought I had the wrong flavour as being in M when it was not. However, I see now that I am right all along:D on that, so no need to make any embarrassing correction:cool:. (There is one flavour that M no longer have; however I have not said anywhere that they do have it! And I've only said that they have one that, indeed, they do. So, Savvy is right again:D:D:p:rotfl:, smug grin, smug grin:D:o:o:rotfl::rotfl::p:rotfl::cool:.)
