    Thank you to whoever said that garden stuff in Tesco was very reduced. Large box of Miracle Gro all-purpose soluble plant food makes up to 80 watering cans 1 kg reduced to a pound, round up weed killer gel reduced to 2 pounds, Bayer garden slug and snail killer 1 kg reduced to a pound, Tesco's own slug killer 800 g reduced to 75p, Bayer garden ultimate bug killer 1 L reduced to a pound. please forgive peculiar spelling, I am talking to Siri! N.b. that the prices on the shelf were not that low. Good night everybody.

    Um, Princes 1L juices are off in M almost as soon as they began (using msm). So my two stores that both showed no mbuy and I was just not satisfied with that small number doing so were, it seems, right. They were 2 for £1 last Wednesday (and £1.32 each:rotfl::eek:) but I still did think the APG might not have the mbuy that it should currently have (from last week), just because few of my own Ms happened to be showing it. That does not mean APG didn't have more stores that did, although, indeed, I didn't even know about the offer until I reached my second store last Wednesday. It's now ended in M (we'd need to have stores that put signage up late now failing to remove it:rotfl: but I don't see that being very likely).

    Actually I may be able to resolve a few more items from msm, but I will still have quite a few, sadly, missing.

    I think I will outstanding:
    Dentinox shampoo - not sure if my full price in the one store that had it today was an incorrect SEL.
    SFC Boneless Bucket - not sure if offer that says expired 4th September but ticket still up is still ongoing or not. I assumed it was £2 last time (it seems I was right:rotfl:) after having it in one store but with no SEL - I failed to get it scanned as I expected it to be a further store but it had vanished. I scanned another item that had no SEL, that I didn't expect to see again that day, rather uselessly it turned out as I did have it later.
    Brioche Croissants - don't know, not in either of the two stores today (I am sure I would have found them if I'd had the other stores).
    Aero Mousses 8 pack - vanished from the two stores, don't know if they are going to be somewhere (I had stock with expiry 1st September last time so may have been bought in specially and now gone - I would have liked to have checked at further stores before reaching a view).
    Heinz Tomato Pork Sausage - not in the two stores, may or may not be elsewhere (I'm sure four more stores would have helped).
    Wadworth IPA - may have gone full price if other alcohol is a guide (it's probably not) but not seen today.
    Soreen Banana Loaf - would have liked to have seen this today but it was not in the two stores. I had it last time - it had vanished from several for me - from a store but with an increased price that I thought could have been an incorrect SEL. Wanted to check today if it had gone up or not (I removed it from the list last week). I know I went to an incorrect price of 70p on Walkers Non Such Toffee last week, as only able to check a limited number of stores, only two had it and with a 70p SEL that I didn't really trust but that was all I had. It's in both of my stores today with clear 63p(?) offer still on (I thought it was really). Is it 63p? 64p? Find out later:rotfl::rotfl:! So, my apologies for that from last time caused by some incorrect SELs.
    Holland's individual fresh Pies - didn't have them in my stores today so don't know if they have gone back on offer or not. They may have done, so I may be missing them today. Or they may still be full price. I was doubtful about whether I would have had them in the stores I was to check today - was relying on one of them which has had them before but is a bit hit and miss as to whether it will any time, but didn't get to visit it. (Don't worry as I think we know APG checks a more consistent than the one today. I'll try and see what's happened in M on Wednesday.)
    Eygptian Cloths - don't know if they are now £1 or whether those are incorrect SELs (have had £1 showing on most of them before in several stores even when all of them have been 50p). Probably now £1 (apart from two earlier RTC ones from months ago, if they are now still anywhere)?
    Infacol Drops are not on msm, so don't know whether my £3 price is an incorrect SEL (product only in one of the two stores). May still be £2.50 as other baby items are still on offer (and that would include the Dentinox that I don't know but for which I have a full price that I suspect may be wrong) - then again the Tommee Tippee decorated bottles that were £10 (beware: I did not have them last time but took them to be continuing at that price) have been scanned and have gone to £24:eek::rotfl:!

    I got the Morliny Classic Hot Dogs though today, that I did not expect to have.

    So, if anyone knows anything about the above items, bar the Walkers toffee and Morliny Classic Hot Dogs, and wants my list to be up-to-date for all of two days, then do let me know! TIA.

    Not that I needed anymore body butter (thank you BS) but I do like SDs body butter. Nice thick texture....

  • :rotfl: got totally distracted reading this list, whilst about to apply a face mask from the amber list. I'll be honest, I'm not sure what it all means whether it's bad environmentally or health wise or maybe both. All bar one product I use is on the 'safe' list.

    It is Silly Susan time here :o

    Been checking the clock in lounge and it seemed very early, then just noticed that Press Review is on Sky News, at 11.22 pm, so was puzzled. Then realised that the clock is still going but must have slowed right down as the time on TV screen in 1.43 AM. Then I checked time on my laptop - 11.32pm. Totally confused until I remembered that I was watching a recording of replay of Press Review from 1.30 am this morning, as had missed a bit and wanted to check it

    Bad environmentally to start with, but it is then getting into the food chain too, so bad health wise too PD
