    The Palmolive Lemongrass Jasmine and Mulberry £1 in M but hopeless £1 in A:(. Good:p - I don't need to bother with them for the list therefore!

    Who cares about Adidas for Men Body Sprays 150ml at £1.50 A and £1 M? There were some Adidas Deodorants 300ml at £1 in M months ago, very briefly.

    I have this as being on £4 "RTC" in M:rotfl:. It looks like it has gone up from £2.19 in A which it was at for one day a week ago, according to the msm graph. It was £2.19 for several months up to near the end of last year according to the graph.

    I don't know what's happening.

    These supposed to have been 32p in M but now showing £1.37 on msm and no evidence at all that they ever went to 32p on there.

    Vimto Eezy Freezy Pyramids (5x62ml)


    Store_8.15px.png
    £1.37 44.2p / 100ml
    Store_2.15px.png
    £1.39

    I've not seen this specific one in M at 32p so, as far as I know, it is full price. I have seen a SEL for "Vimto Cherry Pyramids 5" at 34p on Friday. I do not know whether this is the "Eezy Freezy" (all it takes is the change of a word or two to confuse me) as there was no product left in the store and I haven't seen it elsewhere.

    I'll add Vimto Cherry Pyramids (5) onto my list at 34p as I have seen this SEL.

    The Rubicon Sparking Mango 12 pack also showing full price - something very far removed from 75p - on msm. Again, I know nothing.

    I haven't come across any Fairy Platinum at 50p and anyway I thought that was quite a small size. Own label versions, of much more quantity, are about the same price (in other words better price as there is more liquid in the bottles). This provides the perfect excuse to avoid putting any Fairy liquid, which I haven't seen, onto the list.

    Princes Fruit Cocktail (220g), whether in Juice or Syrup, each scanned for me at 75p/76p mark - I don't know whether they were supposed to be a different weight or not but, anyway, those two I have at full price in M. I also had a dented can of one of them on an RTC shelf in another store but nowhere near the 17p they were supposed to be. This one was still about as expensive as the 410g cans:eek:. The RTC shelves do seem to be storage places for really expensive items that people might assume were good: I had packets of cereal with amounts of pence marked off them from full price because the boxes were damaged, but they must have been put there last week as they are now a lot more expensive than the offer price on the same boxes in the regular cereal aisle:rotfl::(. Things like you can now buy a perfect pack for £1 or you can buy the one on the RTC shelf at £1.85:eek: marked down from £2.19.

    I never saw any Mixed Berry Cereal bars at RTC price. I have only seen £1.19 SELs and they have scanned at £1.19.

    I've seen no evidence of Green's Velvety Cheesecake Mix (259g) being 22p instore - as far as I know, it's scanned at 88p full price. I do not know whether that is on hotdeals or whether, if it is, it is marked as expired or not - I think we found that the Crunchy Nut 500g, which has since gone up in price online, was only an online offer and not available in the stores.

    I saw they had marked as expired a product for M on hotdeals because people couldn't find it on m.com anymore. A sure sign that it is wrong to mark that as expired as the product, especially as it's no longer online, will therefore extremely likely indeed be in some M and be on much better RTC price as it has disappeared from online:rotfl::rotfl:. So, I bet they've marked as 'expired' what isn't, because they've looked at m.com and made the incorrect assumption that because something isn't on there anymore means it isn't available. It is likely to have become available in some Ms at a much better price.
