    Just gone through the cheap mse energy deal and used our exact usage for last year. If we changed to British Gas we would be £3 a month better off.

    Not worth doing especially when I remember the carry on we had with them in the past

    O blessed St. Anthony,
    the grace of God has made you a powerful advocate
    in all our needs and the patron
    for the restoring of things lost or stolen.
    I turn to you today with childlike love and deep confidence.
    You have helped countless children of God
    to find the things they have lost,
    material things, and, more importantly,
    the things of the spirit: faith, hope, and love.
    I come to you with confidence;
    help me in my present need.
    I recommend what I have lost to your care,
    in the hope that God will restore it to me,
    if it is His holy Will
    Thanks lets hope it works:o

    I came back from Sri Lanka with yet another urine infection. The first lot of ant bionics didn't fix it and the doc says I was given a type which doesn't work on this particular bug. This is the same one I had just before I went to S L and she thinks it didn't quite get cured then.

    So now I've some other stuff and they really are not agreeing with me - feel sick, freezing cold and shivery and unsteady on my feet. ( and before anybody suggests I've been at the Smirnoff again - I can't even face a sip of water DH has just tucked me up in bed I hope I don't get out for a waddle in the night and fall ares over tip tip ,

    My card was stopped a couple of weeks back. One of the dodgy payments was £1 to Ocado

    Weird. The only time I tried shopping at Ocado is when they had the voucher glitch a few months ago. My order got cancelled.

    Thank you - it means T price collectors are more reliable than A then :D

    AvM unfortunately didn't :( - CS have extended the Yorkshire pudding offer to 5th Feb - not sure if CoS have too as I claimed last night so it has gone..

    Anon

    Could do - or it could mean that T's collectors were in only 3 stores but found the product/SEL in at least one of them whilst the collectors for A checked six stores but there wasn't any indication of the product in any of them. It could happen!

    In fact, I don't think I know whether TBG takes an M price if the product is found to be OOS in a store but there is a SEL. I've had a quick look at the T&Cs and there doesn't seem to be anything relevant mentioned in there - though I am just skimming them for now as I am not immediately spending the time reading through the entire lot. Whereas the APG, we're told, does take the SEL price even if a stock is OOS for "up to" 7 days, but then different items can be OOS in different Ms (for which SELs may exist in the M or may not) and be OOS in different stores for different lengths of time. This may not be an OOS issue: it may be that the product was never stocked in the Ms they checked. I did not think that would be the case, but, whilst there are many items - perhaps most - that are common to a lot of M stores, there are some items and Ms on those really can vary quite a lot. I think it's likely to be completely random, depending on whether items have been bought in a particular M or not. It depends what they have left, whether staff remove SELs or keep them up - whether by failure to remove them or by putting it a "temporarily OOS" ticket up - and items come in and out of M, and different Ms at different times, and that impacts on the range of SELs randomly available in the store.

    I don't think I'd call either the TBG or APG collectors in M "reliable" at all. "Reliable" means "capable of being relied on". Given that items may not be indicated at all in their stores, I wouldn't rely on them picking anything up. If it sometimes - or even often - appears random as to what items get picked up or get the N/A, we may have thought that the price collectors, if an item sold by M returned N/A, had missed the item and not done their job. However, it may be that the item wasn't one of the items randomly indicated in the stores they happened to check. More of this later - as I'll mention some of the items I have randomly picked up today and at least one item that I randomly "missed" on Monday but which simply wasn't in the two stores I checked then. I didn't think M had that flavour of the item:rotfl:. I deliberately left it off the list because I didn't think M had it. What I should have done is check my smaller store, as that has a larger range of items:rotfl:.
