    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    Don't worry, I am here - I have not been stuck at M all evening, indeed it was possibly the shortest full price collection I have ever had and was finished before the evening really started. FC I can see your post - I will deal with replying if I ever get to it! Will be much later if so as I'm just going back to bed now:cool:. I got back via a meal at a restaurant and then went to bed and fell asleep (an early night:D).

    Almost no change in M - I think just about the Pringles fwiw going onto 2 for £2. Probably pointless as T is/was straight £1 anyway, wouldn't need to buy two if that's still on for a straight comp. - I paused and :doh:then took their details down anyway - in case the T price ended and in case A's price ever changed to a glitch involving a 2 for... mbuy. There's maybe a couple of items to mention that have either gone up or are now higher prices to what I had before and I think one that has gone down in price but will have to find them later from what I've taken as it was ages ago now.

    Despite suggesting I wouldn't, I did take details of branded wines in M. It wasn't as difficult as I imagined - but will be a 'scattergun' approach and the details I have won't be anywhere near complete. I just intended it to be a selection and I notice comps. have been posted already and are probably better comparing to A. I took ones that were about £6 or below - I didn't rigorously take every one that might have been there and it'll be a few of the ones that were in my two Ms. Despite feeling (in my first M) that I was spending some time on that - yet was conscious of not spending too much time on just that area and probably swiftly moved on - possibly it was only ten minutes rather than 20 or 30 - the full visit to the first store took only one hour:huh: - did I miss something that was in there?:rotfl: I'm sure I've been everywhere - I think it's just the fact that it was largely the same as Monday and therefore I was just walking past, having seen, items that were already noted down at the prices I already have. (I know I have in theory the Princes 1L juices still to put onto my list.)

    So, very very little has changed in M as far as I can see compared to Monday - but let's hope the two HE 400mls change on the APG back to what I believe to be the true M price of £2, if the A prices are continuing to show mbuy missing. This might now need to wait until Friday night - and I'm not sure how we tell if the A side will glitch if the mbuy is showing for some people (although that may be the point!). Extremely little change and, as usual, I've come back with pages of information:rotfl:. You'd think much of it the wines but in fact there's a lot of other details I've taken too! Probably the wines less than half of it.

    In the meantime, I will delete something from the list to correct an error that I made on Monday.(:eek::rotfl:) I may explain more later - it's possible that the APG could make the same error - but I can make the excuse that it arises from what M have done rather than me - it's the way the offer label has described the product and I've taken down what the label says - but the product actually turns out to be some other version and is not the one that it says it is (or that I thought it was from what it said and I just copied on Monday). My details did not fully tally with msm when I was going through my Monday updates - which is sometimes because I'm right and the details online are apparently wrong:rotfl: - but it caused me to double-check the item. I now think that M do not have the product that is the description I took. Of course I could pretend that M had anything and you'd never know:rotfl:. However, I am no good at the pretending game so could not do so. I may come across the product at another M later on but, as far as I know, they don't have it!

    As regards other items where my details were fully in accord with online - the Marigold gloves were only the Large and Medium on £1.26 offer on Monday. However, I notice M have now put the Small ones onto that price as well. However, the Small gloves will not work until at least the Wednesday collection gets updated on the APG as they were full price on Monday (assuming they picked up the £1.26 price in their M stores when they collected yesterday).

    In fact, I think that's the one item that has gone down:doh:. Alright - the two that it appears have gone up - or else the previous store I saw them in earlier may have had an incorrect SEL - the Ladies' Replace Blade Cartridges and the Apple Slices tin.

    So I will get to starting to get through the substantive updates - sometime in the day today probably and hopefully, if we get no glitches:(, I can remain here and come in and out occasionally to do the updates. So, for now, I'll pull the rug from you on one item as I have deleted it and I'll just make few amendments.

    I'll see you later:):cool:.

    There's a huge amount of children living in poverty on all of our doorsteps. Maybe you'd consider donating some of your spoils to them?

    I'm not in awe of you, I just see greed beyond my comprehension. Well done on being applauded for it. I will probably be vilified for it but I don't care. Bring on the next person who moans about Tesco chargring a £2 delivery fee to stores.

    Greed beyond your comprehension? How do you know his intentions?

    Also, why should he be oblidged to give any of his stuff to charity? some time ago, you moaned at people donating things bought with glitches because they weren't really donating. Now you're suggesting he donates these to charity?

    Good morning :)

    Thank you :)

    She's a good girl a proper mummy's girl apart from when we out on walkies and she sees another dog she got to bark at them and swing around on her lead. So I am looking for dogs when we out and doing detours so Poppy doesn't have to walk past them :(

    What breed is your Rocco please ? I have forgotten :o sorry.
    Tweets, dogs are very sensitive to our emotions and Poppy will be picking up your nervousness of other dogs. I was told this was happening with me and Rocco at Puppy training even though I thought I was hiding it that I didn't want to be amongst so many people and loud noises, so Rocco didn't either and kept running off to dark corners.

    It's possible to train Poppy not to do this by distracting her with treats when another dog walks past. Best if you can get someone with a dog to help. Start of with the dog in the distance and gradually bring closer when she's ok with that, just walking past. Always praise her and give treats. Eventually she should be able to walk past other dogs without a fuss :)

    Rocco is a Staffie also. I know he looks a bit thin to be one :o

    Morning paw sniffers:D

    Sorry I haven't been around for a couple of days....real life and family get in the way sometimes:o:)
    I haven't got time to read back beyond a page and certainly don't want to open up another row....and I won't.

    Just to say FC and AJ.....don't assume if people are quiet that posts are not being reported. I read Megan mse's post and took on board her view that we are giving the forum team too much work:o

    I know some of us inferred that we shouldn't report posts.

    I hope Megan expects offensive posts to be reported and it's her job to take action. I will never feel the need not to report for fear of giving someone work to do. I would rather not be part of a group,than stand by and watch someone be bullied or offended because of their disability, race, culture etc. I don't believe that the "elite" is such a group:)

    I try not to get hung up on thanks buttons either and also realise that everyone has a right to post here whether we get along with them or not.

    Now the reason I came on to post:)

    Wine in T?:)

    Can I ask if any fizz is comparing please? DM?

    LOL no, I did used you go on about it a bit didn't I :o I've had to calm the germ phobia now I've got a dog, you just can't be like I was with a dog. He's done his business on my carpets a lot of times! :D I won't use Dettol near Rocco for fear that the chemicals will harm him. When my stash is gone I don't think I'll buy any more and will stick to natural products such as vinegar and bicarbonate of soda. I look back and feel silly for worrying so much about germs :o

    Please bubbs no.....I could look back myself. You have enough on your plate. I just wondered if someone knew off the top of their head if fizz was working. No need to look back when I can do it myself:A
