I think I can say that Maynard's Sour Popz Kids have now definitely:eek: gone up in price in M. Very risky word that one. However, I did check at the till, after several full price SELs that I didn't trust, and was told that they are £1.52 so, apparently, they are and online has the same information too so I think they have!

It seems the Bertles Jelly Mix has also gone up to full price:(. I've had a problem working out the price of that product instore, as my only store that now stocked it and had any SEL left for it had full price showing but it was showing full price before, and for about two weeks, when it scanned at 73p. (It was showing the offer before and then changed to full price whilst the offer was still ongoing and still continued for some time even after that SEL change to the incorrect one.) But, given that online is now showing £1.46, and I suspected that it would be off by now, I think I've concluded that they are now full price and I'll delete them from my list - some of the sweet bags seem to have been coming off offer, although on different dates, recently - I was never sure when precisely the Natural Confectionery Co. Jelly Snakes came off offer but it certainly seems that they have done so now (judging by six separate full price SELs seen on them in the last few days and no 73p labels at all).

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:, as I try to work out what M's prices are!

Sorry to hear your cat is so poorly, it's heart breaking watching your pets slowly fading away.
It's 6 years since we lost our beloved dog, i slept downstairs on a chair for a month before he died as he couldn't go up the stairs anymore.
He died 12 weeks after being diagnosed with cancer, then 2 years later to the day, i was also diagnosed with cancer.
I still miss him so much, he was with me 24 hours a day. Daft thing is, i say goodnight to him everynight as i walk past the casket with his ashes in.
I sound like a right nutter don't i..... Nobody answer that, lol

I think I should just post here what my conclusions from instore are and then we can see if they match up with online:rotfl:. Has the Ye Olde Oak Ham 300g gone up in price in M? It seems it has, from a number of SELs in different stores I've seen. But, am I right to think it has?:think:

(Checks msm) - Yes, it has.

:(So, that's off and 'last chance' vs M on APG - will be deleting it from the list! It'll probably be M £1.68 on the APG on Thursday so in effect I wouldn't bother with it now:cool:.

We already knew that, although it doesn't seem much of a changeover day yesterday - much of it was done on Monday this week - the Douwe Egberts 190g - £3 offer was due to run until Tuesday - would be off - I think they've gone up to £4:(. I don't know if this has worked on Monday's collection though - and I wouldn't have risked it now.

I think that's the main changes - there's lots of newly-collected items to add though - and I'll return to do that later. For now - see you for now!:wave:

[Strike]ASDA Chosen by You Fruit & Grain Soft Baked Apple & Cinnamon Cereal Bars (6x37g)£1.18:eek: 50p This may not compare if the M one does not have Cinnamon in it - or if they visit the 'wrong' M stores.[/Strike] I'm starting to conclude - surely a mistake?:think: - that M no longer has this - it was becoming rarer for me over the last few months and the longest BB dates on those have now passed. I am just not seeing the product or any SEL for it anywhere of late. (Perhaps it's moved solely to stores I haven't been to:rotfl:.)

I think that I was right to keep this product on my list:D, although I was probably wrong to cross it out:(.

I have now - after months of complete no trace - come across an indication of the product in M. I have found just a SEL:D - although I have no stock. However, I believe that this is an indication that M does still have this product - this store has been checked numerous times as it is one of my local stores and the SEL was definitely not there on any of the occasions before, after I started going towards removing it from my list (but of course these days I never do so). I think this stands little chance of comparing however. If the price collectors were in this store - and they won't be - I think they would not pick it up since they have been OOS for too long. For me however that SEL is an indication that the product is clearly available in some M somewhere else, because I find SELs with no stock and then later find stock turns up at another M. I had another item - that I kept on my list for ages because 'it's going to be somewhere - it always is!' that I suddenly had just a SEL for last week, that I now took as an indication that that product had been very recently in that store and may just come back. I've happen to check that other store since and, indeed, found it in stock (although now with no SEL:rotfl:).

I will now leave, and reinstate, the Apple Bars on my list as they have now turned up again for me - of course with a 50p SEL as ever.

I don't think this stands much chance of comparing however. The product does not seem to be in many stores now and therefore I think it is very unlikely that it will be in a price collection store. However, that may just be because of the stores I have happened to visit and because I have had absolutely no trace whatsoever of this product in the last few months despite visiting over 37 stores. I went through a similar number of stores recently with no trace of the Pepperoni Melt and yet the APG compared. It's also possible that the "Cinnamon" part of the A product might mean that it is not seen as comparable to M's Fruity Apple Grain bars, although I have decided that it is "similar enough".

Of course, I suspect that someone has an M where the Fruity Grain Apple bars have been a permanent fixture for months on end and are still there now and can't see why I'm having seemingly so much trouble:rotfl:.

I never imagined, when I started several years back just getting details of a few items in M to buy in A for my own shopping, that it would expand into getting details of further items and then the whole stores and then expand further into this.

I finally have that SEL though so, for me now the search, on this item, is at last over. Next...:rotfl: Until it vanishes leaving no trace for a while again:rotfl::rotfl:.

(I know no-one will reply to this because I know you just love watching me trying to find something that's regularly in your M and think that I should do this all on my own:rotfl:. However, if you do have stock of M's Fruity Apple Grain bars in your M, I wouldn't mind you telling me. People should let me struggle though, as I'm sure it's fun watching me if you have items in your M that I'm not finding anywhere in other stores!)

I hadn't quite concluded that M did not have this product anymore. But I was starting to go down the road towards doing so. If I had reached that actual conclusion, I would have deleted it entirely from my list, after thinking (I bet it would have been wrongly) that M didn't have the product. I think they undoubtedly stock the product somewhere now after finding the SEL I've now found. So, I'm now straight back into thinking that they have it.

Just a few before I really go for now:rotfl:.

The Glorious! fresh soups, for which I was seeing full price £2 in all the Ms I checked on Monday, have now, by Wednesday, gone back down to £1 again.
JF Full Repair Conditioner 250ml has gone to £2.
M Bubble Sword 10p (may be store-specific)
M Denture Cleanser 17p (just random that I happen to be in the right store - best of luck on this one as it doesn't seem to be in many stores for me)
M Poly Postbags (3) 12p
M Permanent Marker 30p

There will be more items I have missed due to not finding them - I was finding further items in every one of my four stores!

I've been picking up an additional Birds Eye 'Stir Your Senses' that I didn't have before:rotfl:. Even if it was now OOS but with SEL remaining in a store. So I've never seen stock but I know it will be somewhere:D. And I've been getting now three specific AH Couscous products that have gone to 50p (it seems most are full price). I had just one on Monday - not really worth mentioning though as 'bog-standard' price. I got that one again, from a different store. I then got it with another one from a further store. And finally I got this other one, newly found in the previous store, together with a further new one from a further store:rotfl:.

Actually I wonder if the Stir Your Senses product has gone on RTC somewhere at a cheaper price. It's South Indian Curry (350g) - it's showing £1.50 OOS for M on msm - now, OOS for M sometimes means it really is available but has gone offline merely because it's no longer sold through m.com because it's gone onto a much cheaper RTC instore. So, has anyone got it at lower price in their M? Even if it says £1.50 on the SEL, does it scan any cheaper (preferably at SS as you can't trust that anyone else you ask will look at any discounted price on their system)? Without stock in my store, and nothing at all in any of my three other stores, I cannot check if it has gone to a lower price. I would need to find stock (presumably hard to come by?) elsewhere. TIA.

Goodnight:wave:.
