Egalitarian Laudable Inveterate, The Elite

Have they had a downsize?:(
http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/Shopping/FindProducts.aspx?Query=mars%20celebrations%20240g
Fancy recalling, it seems, the 245g carton and alerting me to that. It also seems that the 388g product, mentioned in the media, is now 380g:(. Or, more accurately, of course manufacturers never downsize anything - they simply withdraw the 388g from sale entirely and then introduce a new product at 380g which is then the only one of near-size available.
It looks like, otherwise, the recall ones are funsize bags. I don't think I have any of those as they have been way too expensive:rotfl:. The only one I might have had might be the Milkyway Funsize which went to £1 RTC in M and then went completely OOS and I sense that it ended up at 43p in some other M I never got to at the time - although I think, if I remember rightly - I may be wrong on this one as it is hazy - they reappeared having immediately shot up to over £2:eek:! I don't think I ever physically caught them when they were on £1 (would have preferred 43p obviously) as I think they went unavailable to me but I will check as and when we come round to getting up to BB October 2016 date.
:think:A.com still says 245g. I don't trust msm:rotfl:. Msm also has, quite separately, the 200g Schwartz Grill Mates products (I'm onto a complete change of topic and this is nothing to do with any recall that I know of) - I don't know why it says £2.20 when they go to £2.19 on a.com. (A went down to £1.10, though that is being, or has been, reversed now it seems. Msm was showing £2.20 when a.com had them at £2.19 previously.) There is no glitch, of even a penny, as msm isn't used anymore. Btw, I have still not found these products anywhere in M. I can't find them at all. I am going from what is online (and also on m.com) but I have no idea where in M they have these products. If they are in very few Ms - and I have not seen them anywhere I have been at all - then I feel the chance of them comparing on the APG must surely be slim?0 -

I have ordered an emergency birthday dress just incase:eek:
It is from the marisota sale and is bright red with tassels from waist down. The colour is very me although they have it in black. Ordered it too large so can get taken in for a good fit plus 20% off.
Now the problem I have is shoes. What colour shoes do you wear with a red dress? Should I go nude, light gold or I have seen a lush floral pair in the quiz sale but can't get my size online.
In the photo the model is wearing a pair of T bar shoes in red/black leopard print and they look ideal but don't know where to look to find any. Tried marisota, dune and debenhams.
If the elite ladies could give me I hand I would be so grateful.
Might wear plan a dress yet but think the red one is unusual.
Right off to read back.

Was going to post B&J Pumpkin Cheesecake Ice-cream 99p at Heron, but that can't compete with nearly free.....plus it sounds a bit odd!
Evening peeps, off for a catch up...
I saw this today but didn't fancy it. Heron also had packs of 4 Nicky kitchen rolls for £1.00. Have had these before and they are very good value.
Good evening everyone. Just had to log on to wish Nannylala a fantastic holiday :beer: Snap-ant I hope your Dad will be home soon :A0 -

Red us a good colour, it stands out and makes a statement but everything else needs to be neutral to go with it - shoes, tights etc.
I like tassels and fringes but they would be a nightmare for me, I would always be getting caught up in car doors, swing doors, lift doors, going to the loo would be a nightmare, and I would embarrassingly attached to stray men ... :rotfl:“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove.

If it's the dress in the link, which is lovely by the way, I'd go for a statement pair of shoes. It's plain (in colour, not style) so you could get away with some WOW shoes. I like the idea of floral ones, or possibly something with a bit of bling. I'm not fond of animal print myself
but if it's your thing, then yes that would work too.
What colour/pattern is the other dress? Can you buy a pair that will go with both?0 -
Good night all :Aearly start at the Airport so need to get to bed ..will catch up with you all when I get back after my hols ...take care and hope the glitches keep coming for you
Have a lovely holiday Nanny. :A I am guessing your got your case packed within the limit.

:rotfl: love it how we all think differently. But it's good to get all angles and that we would all dress it up differentlyI'm not a fan of neutral anything
but that's just me. I'm usually looking for plain shoes because I'm wearing a busy dress.
I hope you are well mhoc. I've not been keeping up with your shenanigans or your child tracking activities lately. My own children have been taking up any spare time I have. Orchestra tours, parties, GCSE options and general neediness. I'm embracing it because all too soon it'll be gone.0 -

Yes that's the one. Have now found some red/black print ones from ax Paris. T bar and nice thick heel which will be easier on my legs. That's providing they tone but look like the ones model has on. Anyway shoes can also go with my black dress and even jeans.
Think I am sorted now thanks. If I had gone for black dress so many items of footwear in black that would go but I didn't want a fussy shape as dress is fussy enough.
Thank you both

I have nude court shoes but my sun tan might make legs darker than shoes.
