    For how long for?:think: (Presumably until their expiry.) Wonder whether 'nationwide' or just that store. Clever move - to get people to shop in T from now on and maybe to remain there.

    My Nectar points (I have £20 worth - should I spend them?:think:) could be changed to a £10 BM - if I ever want to pay straight A prices on any brands:eek::rotfl: - and then a transfer to T possible.:) The possibilities enlargen:D:D and it becomes more complex.

    Been thinking momentarily about this earlier. If, with Sains going, the APG now ended - assuming that T still does match at the till - I probably would start shopping just at T. They are now my nearest store (if I ignore the Sains superstore at the end of the road as Sains is generally way more expensive:rotfl:). I probably would just shop at T and get their own brands and attempt to get the prices of the other store (such as A that is farther away from me) rather than travelling anywhere else. It will be fun if the price match ever fails!:D:(:rotfl: Or else I wouldn't necessarily go to 10 items and, if the APG were to end, I would just buy everything at its cheapest store. (As for the M list, I don't know about that - I would have to move every A vs M item into "buy in M" and lose the 10% - it would be a long job (but then I do those all the time:rotfl:) to change all the stuff (own label to M versions) and migrate it over to M - and that would probably happen on my list in stages - with some items coming off and maybe switching to other supermarkets' versions if the 10% made all the difference. It may become a wider offers list for M than what msm provides. And I suppose I have become a monitor of one supermarket attempting to track what they sell.)

    Does it taste very different from ordinary milk? TIA

    TBH, I'll use it on porridge as I also slosh half a muller and a sliced banana on top anyway :)

    this is true, just heard it from the Manager, they are accepting Sainbobs Brand Match vouchers from Monday right up until 31st May, even if they are expired :eek:

    Rose, I sure she is being looked after and scanning is a precaution. Very difficult to measure accurately.


    Thanks. I did a bit of research and lots of women have small bumps and go on to have big babies. My daughter is 30 weeks and still in size 8 clothes but has a normal size bump. Shes resting today and im going out to do some cleaning later. Thanks again

    Pork Mince situation - maybe it's not going from M after all.

    It seems they may have brought in a 250g (non-comparable) version in order to put onto the 2 for £2, with some of the Rustlers, the Nestle Desserts, some Philadelphias, whatever else earlier I alluded to being in that offer. The comparable (or actually not as the APG was comparing it in error) version is available in further Ms. Some had "£1.83" SEL whether or not there was any stock - some didn't have any evidence of the product at all - others had stock - although I did find another one that just had "PRICED" and was OOS when checked. So, would not able to get a price from there and APG I think would have to find another store that did have it (either £1.83 on the SEL or, probably more likely, did have stock at the time of the visit and stock is marked with the price)! The BB dates for the 500g right one were, in some cases, longer than those on the 250g found in the same stores. This does not suggest that M is stopping having the 500g product - just that it may occasionally not be in stock in some stores at the times I happen to be there (particularly if late in the day - the chances of fresh meat like this having sold out can clearly I think be higher. Some stores I do have to visit in the late afternoon or evening as I can't be everywhere at the same time:rotfl:). I don't know - it may continue to be alright if they pick up the £1.83 from somewhere. Probably a good chance of doing so actually from six stores. (I may revise that last point depending on whether I later get a different view from a further set of stores. Like the list of 10p biscuits totally changed:rotfl: and how I thought on Wednesday the Chocolate Chip Trackers would be 10p but that is not correct! Speaking of different views and changes in my knowledge as to what I believe, I have another 'correction' to make next to clarify the real situation on some chocolates which my local stores on Wednesday didn't make me aware of and I assumed something that clearly, it now turns out, is not the case.)
