    just seen on HUkD 6 Large Free Range Eggs 50p picked some up last time when they were £1 for a dozen and they were huge. Might be worth a gander if you're passing:rotfl:

    Nice to see you posting DeeDee - use to love the way you posted a glitch - it used to take me a while to grasp what you meant then the penny would eventually drop. Not that I was in a position to avail of as A's was nowhere near me until recently.:cool:

    Time to shove the washing back out - black clouds are gone now sunny and breezy.
    Where do we get these eggs from please.

    Started catching up whilst going through 786 emails of Dads - no comment as I ended up skipping & what I don't know wouldn't matter :o

    I've whittled emails down to 309 & am giving up as internet is so slow here :(

    Thanks tweets :)

    [Strike]John Smith's Golden Ale (500ml)£1.00:( £1.00 This is a bottle, but John Smith's Golden Ale (500ml) can may be available in M at 39p/49p/69p.[/Strike] Having trouble finding indication of this again - if it is in a collection store - and most Ms for me seem not even to have any trace - probably OOS for too long.

    :eek:How could I have crossed this off yesterday? It's fully in stock in M and with £1 SEL!

    Nonetheless, I suspect the APG might be off and on on this, if it's having any of the same problems as me. I couldn't find anything relating to it in six separate stores on Monday. I had just an errant SEL indication - no stock - and only in one store from 6 the previous Wednesday, no trace at all in five stores the Monday before, just one store with SEL no stock before that, no trace at all before that (this is all a different set of stores each time), and before that was the last time, until today, that I've had stock anywhere. That's what? - about three weeks of no stock?

    I will be reinstating the item on the Wednesday update.

    Nonetheless, the APG may be having trouble with completely different items, from different stores, to me:

    APG having trouble with
    Boursin - getting full price
    Crisp n Dry 2L Veg Oil - getting full price

    Having no trouble with
    Savers Tomatoes - mbuy
    (Or maybe that is only just about getting the mbuy - may have 3 stores without it and three with it and only on that getting it)

    Me having trouble with
    Birds Eye Crispy Batter Fish Fingers
    Oreo 10 pack cookies as of Monday - I concluded they were full price (£1.91) from my 6 stores:eek: and initially crossed them off on the update from instore but then found them to be £1 online and knew I'd got the wrong price. So, they are still on the list but :eek:really dodgy from my stores. I have found another store today that has £1.91 but this time, so far, I have got the £1 offer showing elsewhere until the July date.
    Savers Tomatoes mbuy - I've managed to find three stores today and got none of them showing it - however they are still on 4 for £1 mbuy (as expected) as I've had them checked at my last store.
    Steak Bakes/Chicken/Sausage Bean Bakes etc. - on Monday I wasn't sure whether the mbuy was still on - however today, from my three stores, I think it is still on as all of them are showing it.
    JS Golden Ale - but now got stock and SEL
    The Morliny Turkey & Pork Hot Dog - as of today, now struggling to find it (it's now gone from my only local store where it was before).

    It's a busy Wednesday, so I may only have been able to do two but have managed three - although, unexpectedly, I may be able to check two, possibly even three, more stores late tonight.

    Having checked three stores:
    M Cat Milk mbuy - I am still in an unsatisfactory position from this. I'm concluding it has now ended (either yesterday or, most likely, today). However, for all I know, it may still be on or moved onto a different mbuy that's not currently displayed in my stores so far.
    The pizzas that used to be 50p - that went to 55p then 55p & 2 for £1: The 2 for £1 mbuy is off, however if they are now on a different mbuy, I do not know that from my stores so far as the ones that have changed are now showing straight 55p. The other one still shows 2 for £1 but - see what I mean - I can't rely on one store to 'confirm' them as still on mbuy because I've checked at the till and 2 are now straight 55p each.

    Me having no trouble with
    Crisp n Dry 2L Veg Oil
    President Brie
    Boursin (not really, although I did have a couple of stores with full price showing on Monday)

    Both me and the APG having trouble with
    Plums 400g - getting £1 SELs/stock

    I can't stop therefore as today is busy - I've found a few 'lost-lost' items suddenly turning up in my store today:D. Will have to mention more later. (I mean long-lost for me, as they will have been in someone else's store and therefore rightly I left them on the list.)

    What I ought to do, if I can't find items easily, is cross them off my list - and then they will turn up straight away the very next time! Just about the only one I cross off - the JS Ale - and it turns up - most other items, such as the RTCs that remain on my list - I'm not seeing them but not regarding them as 'missing' just yet as they're not items I could do with seeing. I've not crossed them out but they're not turning up for me yet though. The one I cross out turns up:rotfl:. Other items that I'm happy about from online, I'm having difficulty with those instore but keeping them on my list as 'they will be around'. It's not a great number of items though - it's a small number (a handful) and I have not got much outstanding at all, from my first store, from the items I could do with seeing. On Monday, I had lots initially missing:rotfl: but all the "ones I could do with..." turned up (but not the JS Ale!). So, in short, cross them off and they turn up and keep them on and you can't find them!:rotfl:

    Lastly, just in case you're asking/wondering, the Cat Milk isn't online any more and the last time I checked the pizzas they were showing what I think to have been an incorrect price online (not updated) that did not tally with what was showing in stores. So, I do need store information to tell me what prices they are.

    I found a rubbish glitch today. It's only useful as a filler and you might already know about it. It's the biscuits 3 for £1.50. Rich tea fingers Asda own brand are a trigger. They compare 60p v 35p Morries or 60p v 40p Tesco

    But the kids love biscuits:)

    Did we have a clash of words or something yesterday...I dont remember,but then even if we did I prefer to call it a healthy debate....nothing to apologise for x
