    I did do a price collection in M (and M and M) yesterday. I've no time to mention here what's changed and no need to do so as I've already updated the list showing the changes and other items that I've found. So the time has been spent there instead. The additions/changes, as usual, are in bold.

    In the event I managed to get back to "a place in North East Wales" to include a check for those potential Wales versions of the RTC football shirts. Getting there, on the day, was not unexpected as I'd already thought, on Sunday night, about doing so. The price collection in the first store took a full 2 hours less than last Monday:rotfl:. I was having to catch up with three weeks and I think last week was supposed to be a big changeover day in itself. It's nice that they've been kind to me this time and not changed much at all - so I could just walk along some aisles, of little having changed, rather than going slowly through every one of them having to take down information I'd not already got. I'd already gone an hour or two earlier than normal, so, with a much shorter time in the first store to do the complete store, that left me several extra hours in the day to travel to and from the store in Wales. That's also taking me a lot less time now that the novelty of the scenic route has worn off and I'm no longer travelling that way:rotfl:. I ended up back at my usual second store (but this time as the third store) only ten minutes later than I usually do, which I didn't expect:T. And I didn't need to go to my fourth store as Wrexham had one of the "main" items I've usually had to check from there (as, of course, my big store doesn't have it at all and neither does my first store).

    I think it's due to be a completely different set of stores tomorrow. So wish me luck finding anything I've already got:rotfl::rotfl:. I think there won't be much change, so it should be relatively easy. I'm hoping to go out, a little bit farther, to start out at a main store that I've now identified to be more useful than my home one:rotfl:. (This time, anyway, to get the items I normally don't see.) I've got the details I've added to the list to check again, although I don't see any chance of seeing any Wales football shirts tomorrow as I'm going a different way:rotfl:. I did find some Eng-grr-land shirts in Wrexham though, at store-specific 35p. You may be able to find lower prices than the general 50p on specific RTCs depending on stores. They're kids shirts. But, anyway, they are on the list.

    Anyone got anything I've missed?:rotfl:

    When you go to open your account, take 2 forms of ID with you...I took passport and a bank statement as proof of address. Also you will need either a cheque or the cash for your first deposit. If you explain you want to do the remaining 11 deposits by S/O, they will give you the sort code info, so you can then set that up from your regular bank account or wherever. Saves having to go back to branch each month.....I will just get the book updated at the end of the 12 month period.

    Thanks for all the info!
