I've found one of my M lost items:j!
The Nuby Grip n Sip Cup, that was £2 and disappeared from all stores I've visited, has suddenly turned up - and now on £1 RTC. (I suspect APG collectors won't be in the same store so most probably won't have it.) However, whilst I've found it again, the M Little Big Bowl with Spoon now goes onto the lost list as I haven't seen anything about it for ages, so I'm simply replacing one item with another:( Obviously I'm deleting someone else's M's items from my main list:rotfl:.

Meanwhile, the Disney stuff that reappeared recently on 6 for £5:( has now gone onto 75p RTC:wall:. Ignore it all as it was 50p RTC before it came back at more expensive mbuy pricing for the 'baby event'. That's their description - I don't see that there is any "event" in M but that's because I never accept anything that anyone else tells me, period:rotfl:.:money::question::rotfl::rotfl:

Is the Electronic Monopoly deal over there on twitter old news. >>>>>

Says hand over a £50 monopoly note (you get it back after it's stamped) and you walk away with a free game from Smyths. :cool:

I think LEJC mentioned it yesterday:D

I completely caved and watched it. I can't move much at the moment, so thought f'it. May have watched a ton (literally) of youtube videos too

I have to say I've been wanting to make a galaxy/stars mirror glaze cake for a while and now I REALLY want to make one. Bloody bake off :rotfl:

I knew you wouldn't be able to resist:D

Event: "a thing that happens, especially one of importance".

So?:huh: It's a thing that happens. Things happen - so what?:rotfl:
I... I really couldn't care less to be honest. And, to me, anything that suggests it is of importance is merely them applying or suggesting an importance onto it that, for me, carries no importance whatsoever, is completely boring and not to be taken up!:rotfl: So, it's just "something that happens" and, on which, they are implying that there is some importance to it or that we are to take it up purely for the purpose, it seems, of making them money (as the items appear to be more expensive when they are on the "event" and best bought at any other time whatsoever). It's purely a marketing term, and is to be avoided:money:.

I could say, at any time, I was having an "event" tonight - and merely my assertion gives that no greater importance at all. I'm having an event! I'm having a posting event. Happy now? Is that really great importance to you?:rotfl:

Thanks Bubbs for fizz deal.

We've had an anniversary Chinese take away - last time we had one here Dad was sick sick sick & more sick all through the night As soon as Mum & I had gone back up to our beds, closed our eyes, his bell would ring ....
So hopefully this will not be repeated as we went to a different one.
My DS is cooking spinach, that I de stalked for her, she is making spinach & ricotta lasagne for the vegetarians option.

Turkey cooked, smells delicious.

Dad tucked up in bed with his iPad & Great British Bake Off. So peace at last :rotfl:
Wheel chair man fine tuned his new wheel chair so no more taking corners off doors, & dragging tablecloth & table ware off when he leaves the table. The arms rested on table & Dad would reverse out with cloth attached :eek::eek:
He is so much stronger, his 'dead' arm is gaining in movement, but muscles need building up. Walking on his zimmer 4 times a day. All adds up.
Plus he can now browse internet, a huge mental step, he found the Berlingo :T:T
What a ffaff trying to insure it today. As it has had a ramp fitted. Prudential quoted £1100 :eek::eek:
Used Quidco quote & got it down to £373 :T

Motobility do insurance for wheelchair adapted vehicles. Can't remember what company they use but if you ring them they put you through. Worth remembering for the future.

That thought went through my head too wacky yesterday as I stood in W trying to think what to buy. It's tricky when you don't use a store very often:o

Found but not tested

Small glitch on Mr A 3 for £10 chocs

Linda Lindor the new winter addition is not showing on mys or a online so should be a trigger along with 2 of the red boxes or regular ones. Think orange is also a trigger.
Not the best comparison but £4.80 a box in Mr A but £3.50 a box in Sainsbugs and Morries.
NOT TESCO but should work. Giving apg of £2.60

I know tiny but I found it so one to watch for better comparisons

Also found what would have been a glitch on old ordering system. One of the air wick home signature flowers was priced up at £6 instore but £12 online. £6 in T
I believe before it would have given a £6 apg and a free air wick but now nothing:( so if anyone still has old system or way of getting it go for it.

Oh well just keeping My hand in. Would have tested chocs as mums absolute favourites but comparison not good enough for me. These are only ones we have in 3 for £10 so far.
