    Hi everyone.Went for my cataract doing yesterday.I was a little nervous after reading I think it was altojack's post.Everything went ok.and I can't believe the colour difference it has made,everything is so bright.
    It's like a whole new world.Got to have the other one done so at least I know what to expect.
    Sorry yours didn't go so good Altojack but hope all's ok now.
    Can't stay on here long it's too bright so going to make tea.

    Pleased that you've posted Annabell and that all went well. When I had my first one done I was ok. The problems arose with 2nd one and it was a trainee that did it :eek: I'm much better now and having check up tomorrow, 3 weeks already :eek:

    I haven't noticed any difference in vision e.g colours and print as mine were done due to the risk of glaucoma rather than problems with vision.

    Just take little steps though and I hope you heal soon X
    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.

    The M list update from yesterday is almost completed, except that I have a couple of 'special projects' to go through - some fresh pizzas that have persisted in showing full price online despite showing offer price in more than one M and also some Ko-Lee Noodles - yes those packets - I'm going to be putting them back onto the list at 4 for £1 as I have clear More points offer showing in my M, whether they give those points or not.

    I'm not bothering with my last item before I get there - an M A5 Academic Diary. But, considering that it is 2015-2016 and therefore has probably about two and a half usable months left, I would expect a price much much cheaper than the 50p:eek: that it seems is being offered - unless there is some other version on a different BC somewhere in another M that is much cheaper price.

    I've put M Salmon & Vegetables Complete Cat Food (2Kg) onto the list at £1.46 - even though that, and indeed a lot of items are showing full prices on m.com - I suspect the price on this product however may now have already expired as it may have been £1.46 RTC for a single day when I saw it yesterday, and then today they may have put it back up again, like the Savers Cat Food tins have now been changed from £1.73 RTC to £2.25 - I only had one store showing RTC price - the others - and I did check - they have same BC - were (and are) showing £2.25 but the one that had the RTC label has now changed it to £2.25 (at least yesterday, unless they've changed it back again or changed it to something else, or removed it, today:rotfl:).

    I have yogurts showing full price on msm - however I am just going to have to ignore msm and go by what I have got from instore. Some are showing OOS and therefore clearly are on better RTC prices - others showing higher prices and in stock though, I have more than one M showing the £1 RTC yesterday! Or 50p for some desserts/yogurts in some cases. I don't know how one of them is showing £1.25 two days ago on msm but going up to £2.47 now:eek:, even though I found it at £1 RTC in M yesterday. I don't know how that happens - other than the obvious: that m.com shows different prices - and I don't know why, after products have gone down to £1 prices, msm graphs afterwards show lowest prices of £1.25 when that's not what actually happened. This has been the case several years ago with items we've been buying and know they went down to a certain low price, yet, after the offer is over, msm starts showing a higher price as the lowest price and then later shows a "Savvy buy" with the price going down, even though it's not gone back to the cheapest price that it was that the graph then omits. I think that's how the system operates - it doesn't always show the correct position - items are 'always' (it seems) shown going down to "Savvy buy" prices even when they have been cheaper before. And of course msm is unable to show the far better RTC prices that happen when it shows "---" for M or OOS, as they aren't then on m.com.
