    Is that a question? It is online as well, so maybe that suggests it is available in more Ms than something that isn't - or maybe it just means it is in Leamington Spa M (from which I understand the delivery system is operated). Are they even in Leamington Spa? Would they pick that one as one of their six because it is M's biggest store?:think:

    It clearly doesn't have everything though - that must be all the items I have that aren't online:rotfl:.

    The above item is on RTC in M - it has been on RTC in M for a while and I have occasionally picked it up, then lost it, then picked it up again (my losses though are more due to my fewer price collection day stores than them) but the previous prices have not been good enough for me to mention on here or put onto the list. It's certainly not in every M - but that's true of so many items (including Chicago Town Pepperoni Melts that I have difficulty finding but the APG picked up - btw, I'm having difficulty again:rotfl: - and now picking the Melt up from a different store - in fact I now have Pepperoni Melt on the list on the basis of the Meat Melt version (which A no longer has online) being in Chester M at £1 SEL. A bit dodgy - but definitely Pepperoni is available elsewhere. The only store I last saw it in had a single pack on the shelf and that pack was open which is probably why it has not sold and, only because of that, is the crucial SEL for it therefore remaining on the shelf. I suspect Pepperoni Melt is so rare - they both are - it might not even get picked up on the APG now - may be in a different store to the one (probably one?) that they got it in last time - our APG price collection store might be Kidderminster - and no stock when I saw it so may have gone from there by now and might be in some other M (is in some other M) that they don't check - and not picked up by them from elsewhere. So it worked on the APG before but might not do so now (but I said that last time and then it worked).

    It could just be my stores - I haven't been anywhere in the South East yet (APG will surely check one store in that region) and M could have a concentration of Chicago Town Melts there. The other Chicago Towns have gone up in price in M - the Deep Dish Pizzas from £1 to 2 for £3 and the Subs from £1 to £1.52; however these Melts have remained constant at £1 despite others changing in price around them - and the SEL in Chester, although I did not scan the product this time - I did last time I saw the other version in another M - suggests they have remained at £1. :(I now notice A has gone down to £1 on the Pepperoni Melt:mad::mad: - so not much point anymore!:p

    The Chicago Melts weren't rare for me before - they were in most stores for me when there was a big £1 promotional offer on them a few months ago. They were in freezer ends in most of my stores. They seem not to be promoting them as much now, even though their price has remained at £1 and not changed throughout.

    Anyway, back to the JF Sea Salt Spray - it's not in every M but it is around and I occasionally come across it - :think::think:msm shows it as having only just gone down so I have picked it up straight away - may suggest it's in more stores than I think since my four (they may use six) picked it up in one yesterday. I suspect I might actually see it tomorrow, in another M. I think it has a chance - I would wait till the end of the week probably to give them a chance to get the price correctly low.



    That's my local store, will try and pop in tomorrow if I get chance :)

    Thanks that is so nice :A:A. Luckily its not until July so we have a while to get sorted. Yes we are in north Wales. She is having a vintage afternoon tea and the bigest problem I think we will have is finding old fashioned cups and saucers, teapots and plates etc .as they were suppling them. The afternoon tea we are going to do from work , still working on the evening, my coffee suplier came in tiday and he has a friend who does hog roast so he is going to see if he can help if he is not booked up.

    If your dd doesn't want all the place settings in one design I am sure a few of us can find some sets for you. My rather lovely charity shop has more upmarket stuff and had loads of cup, saucer and plates selling in miss matched section just because it wasn't a full matching service. Arthas dd did the same and guests got to keep the China. Could probably find you 15-20 sets down here. Just ask we are here to help. Teapots might be harder so you might need urn from work.

    Hope it gets sorted but if you need to locate certain things please ask.

    Pringles have gone down to £1 (from 2 for £2 last week) in M - but the offer only supposedly on until 17th April in M. They have shot right up in T. However, they are not getting onto the M list - no issues regarding prices on SELs this time in M so I think they are likely to work - instead, A is at rather hopeless £1.25:( - want it to be a lot higher as current A price doesn't contribute much at all to an APG.

    Quick find me a groom I have just told them I am getting married in august:eek:

    Well we need to have evidence if they are still trading.

    Might need a companies house check to make sure they haven't rolled and started up again.

    We will get them Ros. Let me know if you want China as I saw a lot on Friday.
    Might manage a few teapots but most of the older family members will most likely have one they could bring on the day.

    Ooh I'm just looking at Norfolk for our holidays. Not being very good at geography I thought we might do first week in Norfolk and the second week in Suffolk. If anyone has stayed in any fab cottages that allow one dog ID be grateful to hear about them.
    BQ I had breakfast with said friend this morning at the same place so I relayed your kind words. I hardly dare ask........how was the keyhole surgery:eek:

    Logie and tiger white used to be authorities on holiday cottages. In the old days dad use to book from small ads in telegraph. Stayed in some lovely places in Norfolk and Southwold Suffolk.

    Artha *sigh* wasn't he a tonic? He had the most brilliant sense of humour and so much wisdom. I miss him.
    He did indeed trawl the charity shops for vintage teacups and saucers for his daughters wedding. I love mis-matched, it's got to add to the conversation.

    All of our parents and grandparents wouldn't have had a wedding without getting this stuff as a pressie, it's special to us but it was standard to them. I think we need a vintage teacup co-ordinator. There is only one lady on this thread that is qualified.......Nanny :o
