    Vs Sains.

    1x ASDA Wensleydale (250G)£1.74 £1.50

    For my old bog-standard 2 for £3-like price on 250g cheese - no need to buy on that mbuy in A! My old price is clearly from the days when I was paying over the odds several years ago:eek::eek:. £1.50 for 250g!:eek: Wouldn't even go anywhere near to it nowadays - £6/kg:eek: (less 10%). £5/kg price (£1.25) supposedly available in Aldi.

    Same womble - Morries don't have 4 pack onions do they?
    1x ASDA Grower's Selection Onions (4PK) £0.85 N/A

    I'm "pretty sure" they do - at more expensive 'crunched' price today than the 1Kg bags! Those 32p offers in M will effectively be off now (for people whose Ms have closed for the day) as they were 'Mother's day' specials. Only chance now will be if any of them ever were picked up on the APG on last's Wednesday collection.

    I noticed the onions (I'm 'pretty sure' they were 4 pack) as I did a 'supplementary' bit of a quick price collection yesterday at another M - just wanting to see whether anything else was available. They were right next to the 1Kg 32p bags so I noticed the fact the small packs were much more costly! Of course I found a small number of extra items! You'll have noticed therefore that a few more items sneaked onto the list yesterday. HTH. (I've also corrected the Cadbury's fingers - paying way over the odds on that - thanks for the info. about the twinpack in T. Fortunately my Scented Candles at 75p are alright - msm has T on a linen one on offer at £1:rotfl:.)

    It's the 'fresh' Chicken Drumsticks that vanished from all my 3 (and more) regular stores - and after several weeks I deleted them entirely- but may have been continuously available ever since as they are available in this other store yesterday - unless they have just appeared in there towards the end of the week and may be in my normal stores on Monday. Except that, as currently stands, I'm not using my normal stores tomorrow, instead some other ones:rotfl:. Tbh, I have been getting a bit bored of the price collection, with not much changing - bet they'll be lots of change tomorrow:eek::eek: - but I need a change of scenery I think. I'll find out, if I go to the other store, if they still have the large McVities Family Circle - I very very very much doubt it - that was there after Christmas. I am thinking some Christmas items are certainly not available anymore and the list rather useless as piled up with items no-one has - however I keep getting 'new' festive items turning up every other week in my regular main store even now. Such as, last time, the Sprinkles Bright at 25p. I think I removed them from my list about a month ago, when I did a clear-out of some items that I haven't seen for ages and doubted would be there. However, these now suddenly turn up! So, they've probably been continuously in storage or available somewhere and I had deleted them, even nowadays, in error:eek:(:rotfl:) whilst probably leaving on lots of festive bakewells and chocolates that no-one has! It's the fineness of judgement calls being made sometimes, here and there, and sometimes the call is made the wrong way.

    Some of the 'cheap' stationery items - the 20p Savers pencils and the 18p Drawing Pins tub - have also suddenly, after months of absence, appeared in one of my local stores. I've now concluded that M has had the 18p Drawing Pins somewhere continuously for well over half a year. Even if they disappeared for me for months but were recently added onto the list and even retained after I could no longer find them! They are continuously in some M somewhere or other. I think. They happen to have moved to covering one of my Ms (were there months ago, then months of absence, now suddenly back - but M have had them somewhere for the entire time (I've now decided)). They will be being kept on the list continuously from now on in, whether they vanish from nearby stores for me or not. The 20p pencils were, for me, a slightly different matter as, although they were not in my nearby stores after they finally went OOS from all of them and then the SELs were removed (leaving no evidence of them and then I thought they had gone from M entirely. Wrong!), they were available in many stores, on my tour, a little farther away. Whereas the drawing pins I could not find anywhere - until I finally did find them in a single store (after a subtle indication trace of them, a suggestion, from a different store that had none there). They could have been in all 450 stores except the ones I visited:rotfl:. Definitely available in one of my 'own' Ms now. I think, although they were rare (or seemed to be, from my set of 50+ stores), they have kept in stock somewhere, so should continuously be on the list.

    Just an inquiry regarding CCTV please?

    Parents have CCTV - do they have to put up notices regarding this for visitors/care workers calling?

    Thanking you :)

    :) Found the answer - sorry to trouble you

    The Information Commissioner’s Office Code of Practice on the use of CCTV states that the use of security cameras for “limited household purposes”, including protecting an individual’s home from burglary, is NOT covered by the DPA - even if the camera captures images of streets or other areas near the home.


    Section 36 of the DPA states that personal data – including video footage of an individual – captured only for limited domestic purposes is not covered by the restrictions of the DPA.
