    Yes, it is: I certainly have that showing today in all three stores (not that I trust any of them:rotfl:). Perhaps it's 11p only on a Monday:rotfl:. My two stores last Monday were showing 11p, as part of the 'price crunch', then, on Wednesday, all three I checked then (one of which was the same store) were showing 30p:(. Now, all three (two of which are the same stores as Wednesday) are showing 11p. Perhaps they don't want weekend shoppers to benefit... it's so cynical!

    The 'cynical' bit, actually, began as soon as I walked into the store! The first section I see is the plants and flowers at the front of every store. They have what is now their "Plant of the Week" out with the price - £1.50:eek:. I think anyway - I didn't concentrate on that:rotfl:. However, the Gerbera, which was "Plant of the Week" a few weeks ago, is still £1. If I trust the price labels:rotfl:. Just so cynical. So, avoid what they are promoting as the "Plant of the Week" and pick up a different plant instead.

    The Garlic now says 11p again. The Loose Ginger now is £1 per kg. It went up from £2.93 per kg to £3.93 per kg - maybe the ending was kept the same in the hope that people wouldn't notice the £1 per kg price increase:rotfl:. It has been £2.68 per kg in A but is now, as mentioned, £1 per kg in M. It will not compare on the APG. Not if it is like what it has been. So, I will now suggest buying Ginger in M at £1 per kg:rotfl::rotfl::wall:. Oh, alright then, I might permit a tiny piece of 1p ginger to be bought when absolutely necessary to get eight items for a glitch shop. Indeed, I think if you bought the same tiny amount in M instead, you'd probably not get the benefit of the £1 per kg price. They have to charge you something:think: and it would round up to the same 1p anyway?

    The Whole Cucumber is now 26p in M. My guide price is 14p:rotfl:. I will still put that on the list though - to await the APG to update. For a second or two, I thought that M had craftily put up the price of the portion cucumber from 24p (was 21p) to 26p. But no, it is the Whole Cucumber at that price!:T Makes the portion ones now seem really expensive:rotfl:.

    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. :)

    Morning :wave:

    Thanks for the meal deal glitch, those pizzas are quite nice, you can never have too much ice cream too. Just noticed on m website ice cream reduced to £2, I guess it will be fixed before this shows on apg

    Hope your girls are alright QoC, are green houses more likely to break though in this weather?

    Oh I don't know, I think it will continue. I thought the frozen Quorn would continue for more than one day too. Two of us replied to someone's post. One of us (I think it was squigs) thought it was just a one day thing, I thought it might last a little more than that and I was right, but it didn't last long enough!

    I actually think it's more likely that an incorrect price for M would be picked up than the full price at A disappear. I don't think it's very likely to get incorrect prices for M - I hope they appear correctly (once the M prices update in one or two days' time). I know one of the B&Js prices is currently incorrect (the Cookie Dough doesn't work) but I still don't think it's likely to happen (on any one item) and I hope it will update correctly! The major thing that I think is the most likely thing to stop this going on is if the meal deal offer itself ends in A.

    I know what you mean tbw, hubby was in and out of hospital last week, (after being sent home and rushed back in ambulance with the blues and toos ) eventually after an angiogram and 2 stents fitted and with in days of a full blown heart attack. He was like go home, but you cant, I even stayed over at a local hotel to the hospital the night before his procedure, save the 220 mile return journey.

    Oh I didn't realise sunflower....what a time you've had of it. Scarey stuff.....pleased to hear he's on the mend:T

    Good afternoon everyone.

    Why is it when you need a doctors appointment, you cant get one for 2 weeks.

    My DS1 collapsed last night, 2nd time he has done this in a matter of 6 weeks, he was getting out of the bath and drying himself off, the next thing we hear is this bang, and he is out cold on the bathroom floor.

    Doctors surgery dont think its urgent enough to come in on open morning surgery :eek:

    This happens to my Dad. He's epileptic though
    I have dyslexia, so get used to my spelling and grammar :)
