    No they are 5 for £6, there is fish, ice cream kievs, fish fingers can have 5 of one or mix them hth
    Edit i have not tried the burgers, but apparently they are a high % meat and are lovely

    They are really nice burgers. Just wondered if anyone who bought today had the new offer (2 for £5) or the one showing online (5 for £6) or both kick in.

    That said, if it is just the new offer it is a very small saving - normally £2.69 each so 38p saved on two :(. Best to stock up now as we are unlikely to get £1.20 for four quarter pounders again this summer?

    :hello:I'm thinking whether to remove the V-Kat Dry Schnapps Original (70cl) from buy in M as I haven't seen it in M for a while now. The last I knew it was £4.50 until 26th June. M.com, which last time said detailed information was being sourced for the product, has switched to "Sorry, we don't have the product information you requested at this time". Which is no use, as it also says the same for the 750g Ice Flakes and yet they are clearly available from M. It's unclear, although they don't have the product information "at this time", whether they will have it at any other time at all in the future. I ought to contact them - "I note you say you do not have the information I requested at this time [my emphasis]. Does this mean you will have it for me at any other time? Thank you for your assistance.":rotfl:

    The answer may be "No, it doesn't." In which case, what does it mean? Merely that they don't have the information at the moment? In which case, that's no good!:p:rotfl: I wonder whether they have given up trying to source the detailed information they said they were trying to source or, indeed, whether they ever were doing so in the first place. Of course, I take them at their word whereas no-one else cares at all. And therefore I'm disappointed that, as with seemingly almost every neurotypical promise, it transpires (so far) to be unfulfilled as usual. However, as I nowadays expect this and would be utterly shocked and surprised if anyone ever did carry out what they said they will, I'm not actually disappointed. I just expect it - in accordance with my low expectations of people most of the time!:rotfl::rotfl: The problem of course is that, I were doing things, I wouldn't make any promise at all (certainly not one that I could not carry out very sharply) and therefore people would feel worse as they would be left completely in the dark. Instead, most people need to be comforted - such as by a reassurance (previously) that they are trying to source the information - however, as I expect so-called "reassurances" never to be carried out, I don't find any reassurance or assurance in them at all, instead the usual expected-to-be-unfulfilled promise that will let me down. So, I'm now not happy about being let down, up to this stage, and no information available within what I think to be a "reasonable time". It's no good - they end up making me view them unfavourably. I even wonder whether they were lying to me now when they claimed to be sourcing information (though I never trusted them in the first place when they made that assertion). I expect nothing less of the world these days:(.

    Of course, no-one else takes any of this seriously at all so it doesn't matter.

    It's possible that M does not have the V-Kat anymore, however I can't rule out the possibility that it might exist somewhere. I feel it'll be the "complete-vanish for several weeks whilst it continues to be available at some rare, unknown store and then suddenly reappear once the offer has ended" - that's just a feeling I've had before on other items that have similarly vanished for me, whether it actually happened or not I don't know, but just a feeling I get that that might have happened.
