    Maynard's Discovery Patch (160g) - at least some of them - are 73p in M. (There are three versions - I only found two across my three stores. I know where all three will be - in my small M that I didn't visit:rotfl:!) I notice none of them are on msm for anywhere at all and I assume not on a.com? However why would you bother with those anyway, when the Easter sweets, which are larger packs, are cheaper and when Maynard's Discovery Patch - Animals (352g) has been 93p in M?:think: Works out a lot lot better! Nonetheless, those large Discovery Patch packs have been extremely rare for me: I've only ever found them in one M. I think seasonal sweets, obviously Easter at the moment, after the season, are the way to go...!:money: Maybe wait just a touch and they might go lower:think::rotfl:.

    Have I not got the big pack of M Beef Burgers on my list? I don't think it is there you know:cool:. I never know what's on my list these days:rotfl:. It's not there, as far as I can see, and it's not at £2 price anymore but is higher. It may have gone up a few weeks ago in price.

    I wouldn't have thought it would be the doctors decision if you have to declare all meds if the insurance company ask then they should be surely. That is what put up my travel insurance by £95 last year, as I had four different meds for just the one chest infection.

    I'm sorry Rose but I really do think your sister has not thought of the seriousness of the issue of hiding/not declaring all your mum's meds/problems. As others have said it will invalidate the insurance. Has she really thought through what will happen if your mum is taken ill abroad with one of these issues. Insurance companies try and wriggle out of paying out at the best of times. One call to her GP would give them the ammunition they would need. Sorry if I am being blunt. :o

    I do have a vague recollection I had the choice of not covering myself for anything that they thought could have been connected with the chest infection but hospital bills, if you need to be transported home etc far outweigh not taking the right cover.

    I really hope for you that it all works out you must be worried sick. x

    I agree entirely and would not take any risks whatsoever.

    I'll leave the frozen M Beef/Lamb Grills, and Quarter Pounders, as stands - left off of my list, as none of them appear to have any item to compare to them from A, so they are just noted here as being 2 for £3 in M. (I've already mentioned that S was at £1 yonks ago - in fact I don't think either S nor A stocks that other version anymore.) Some of the 2 for £3 M products are on msm. Of course msm is not complete:rotfl:. However, you will find in your M all that you have in your M whether it is on msm or not and therefore hopefully know what it is in the offer - however, to be helpful (or not as you may not have it in your M:rotfl:), one I found that isn't on msm is M's New Yorker Beef Quarter Pounders (4 per pack - 454g). I intended to be helpful anyway:rotfl:.

    Thank you!

    Glad those Honey Numbers didn't compare! They always manage to find cheap products that aren't in my As:mad:. However, there have been some cereals in my As so maybe I will find them there:cool:. Are they okay vs everywhere on the APG or are there any comps. we should avoid? (And the Choco Flakes too.) TIA.

    I do not know whether, in truth, they have an equivalent at M - if they do, it is going to be much much more expensive:rotfl:.

    Shame that the Spaghetti Bolognese no longer has a comparable item at M.

    I popped into one of my family's house earlier and found an A receipt on which they had bought enough items for comparison. They don't care about the APG:wall:, so I took it (as they let me) and checked it - it would have been cheaper in M! Not a great amount on the APG (less than £1), but, apart from a 4 pack of Egg Custards comparing £1 at T - N/A vs M - they get me 10% off everything else that compared against anywhere as every item, bar that one, wasn't 10% cheaper than M:T. (I would have posted the shop but then found it was from over a week ago so will be out of date information.) Nonetheless - certainly a point in checking when, if you had done your shop elsewhere and bought what you could have done there, it would have been cheaper! Probably would have saved money as they would not have bought the tempting Egg Custards:rotfl:. Or would have bought 2 pack on 2 for £1 in M and thus paid the same on that anyway.

    Palmers lotion is also very good. Used by body builders to help reduce stretch marks.
    When I had surgery last year I just used my face cream and face oil as saved trying to get out to buy anything. I think it is as much the act of putting the oil on as the oil itself.
    AJ had a good tip on how to apply and massage oil in that really helped.
    Maybe she can confirm this as it really helped me and have another op next month. Think it was more about massaging across to either side of scar rather than up and down.

    Thanks VT, someone suggested Nivea to me, I did say to put some of her face cream on before she went to bed tonight.

    I think with clearing the kitchen I had forgotten to keep a check on it. :o I shouldn't need to really she is an adult now but I think maybe she should have been moisturising it before now. It's around 6 weeks since the op I think. Thinking about it I said dressing came off week after but it must have been nearly 2 weeks.

    I'm sure AJ will pass the tip on tomorrow. :)

    Fairy Platinum Original 30 is £6 in M on the off-chance that it's not £12 in A. I suspect it is though. The other (Fairy 'Ordinary' 34) are clearly no good though as showing lower price for A online:(.
