Well I didn't want anything else charcoaled so I had to be quick. :rotfl: He had been drinking homemade cider, and couldn't see the problem. :eek:

Since having to have the floorboards up in my bedroom because of the leak I have got a lot better at the ironing. :cool: The ironing board was sort of a permanent fixture up there. But now I have moved it downstairs I don't let my piles stack up anymore. And I actually have room to put the iron board away in the new kitchen. :T Although this may be a novelty that might wear off so don't go getting ideas. :rotfl:

Ha:D:j:j. Msm now comes to the rescue on the McDougalls Bakehouse products as it now has one on there for M (it didn't have any before). Now £2.06:(. I was close. So, I will take it they are off - I think we can make the fair assumption that the one not on there has also gone to the same.

That said, I had the Gino frozen Chicken offers at £1.50 and then it turned out that only the Battered Nuggets stayed at £1.50 (and still are today) - the others went to £1.98 (which they still are now too). I only had Battered Nuggets in my usual store and showing £1.50 so I initially made the wrong assumption that the others were the same. I did discover quite soon though that they weren't from another store. And I do have the store with both in today, and it's just the Battered Nuggets at £1.50. Which is what assumption I now make when I see those at £1.50 in my usual store again (assuming that they stay there). I will check the other store with both at some point to try to catch if the non-Battered ones ever go back to £1.50. I apologise - I may be delayed in catching that if it happens as my usual store only has the Battered Nuggets (and they risk vanishing from there and it's the only store with them that I normally have).

President Brie and Quorn Peppered Steaks are off in M, so last chance for now it seems. I don't know about Goodfella's Little Fellas frozen pizzas - I suspect they are off in M (T is still £1) but I have a store that was incomplete and still had £1 on one of them, so wanted to see more than two stores - both may be incorrect full price, with one of them partially. I think it's likely they are now full price in M. There is so much that has ended in M. Flash Lemon Gel 400ml has gone up too - it's £1 everywhere else, including A:( - that's not going to help M comp. on wombles soon I feel. Peppa Pig Digital Thermometer has gone up.

However the frozen Pork Shoulder (1.5Kg), if you even have it in your M, has gone down to £2.43 RTC in one I have. Magners Cider 20 pack has gone back to £10 after being £12 for just under a couple of weeks. I have 16 pack Birds Eye Vegetable Nuggets (320g) at £1 RTC (may be lucky if you have those). I don't know what's happened to the other pack size of the Vegetable Nuggets in Iceland that are normally 2 for £1.50 (in fact those have disappeared from msm for M as well now - I think M will be full £1.45 price each on those). They are 10 pack so, even if Iceland is 2 for £1.50, the 16 pack in M at £1 are better price if you have them.

I don't know what happened to the £2 Compost (a Richmoor version that was later joined, together or by itself at other stores, by an M version of same weight) - I was hoping I might find that at some store today. I had it remaining at just one store some weeks ago and with some suggestion somewhere that it may have gone onto RTC? I don't know - I've never seen any SEL below £2 (it was absent on that occasion but the Richmoor product then disappeared for me - I've yet to see either Richmoor or M ever since) but it's just a feeling I have of a possibility it's gone down and cleared out. I've lost them for now. I may get them at some point later in the week - I'm rescheduling my missing stores for Friday (may or may not come off) after I get the car working back properly again.

The Nrich milk drinks are off, the KA fruit juices have it seems gone up although KA soft drinks cans are 3 for £1. They were removed when the Jamaican Ting was 4 for £1 but that's now 3 for £1 as well:(. (Just now wondering if there's more than the KA Fruit Punch and Black Grape (soft drinks cans 330ml) in A - there seem to have been some that have gone and therefore potential trigger - but unless it's a visible trigger it wouldn't fit in with the M (or T) mbuy:( - and I don't have details of the individual price in M as I don't collect that information unfortunately - unless ad hoc on something specifically known about in advance.)

The Disney baby products however have now gone to 50p RTC. So they are back at their last RTC price from last time (before they reappeared generally and went up in price for the baby event:(). Indeed, the time when they have been more expensive is when they have been on the "event"! So, it definitely helped:money: to ignore that event, which was a creation manufactured by M. I will get the list I had before and put them all back on again at 50p - I don't need to see the entire lot although I had only some of them in my store, that's good enough for me to say that they are all 50p each.

The Footy Dogz products (tracksuits etc.) have now gone to 25p. I think there may have been cheaper specific RTCs available before although that is now their official RTC price. Sadly confined to fewer people I think now - after these have gone from a lot more stores for me after 50p RTC.

The Hearts Dinner Plate and others in that range - which went to 50p RTC in some stores - have now got was £2.00 now £1.50 on them. I don't know how they get that crossed-out price - it seems they may have been on 50p only in some places - however their "reduction" elsewhere, taking them to £1.50, is of course much more expensive than the RTC they've been at - or maybe I'm wrong - maybe there's M Hearts Dinner Plate (one BC) in one store and M Hearts Dinner Plate that looks completely identical and in fact is, apart from one thing - the BC - in another and if you have the RTC version it's still 50p. But, anyway, it does seem from my new store now (which no doubt had kept them at £2 before:(), it's £1.50. So I'm drawing as much attention as I can to the fact that a same name product has been much lower elsewhere! I will take it they are now £1.50:(.

That's it for now - I think the Nestle Shreddies 500g are off - indeed they are on msm:( - I have bed to go to.

Farley Bear Biscuits are I think off, Heinz pouches are off, Sudocrem products are off, but Slimfast Chocolate bar is on (I think it will be Heavenly Chocolate Delight - actually I don't, I think that's what it's called just to try to get you to buy it:(:rotfl:), Broccoli 335g is 38p in M as well but I'm having trouble seeing the A one online at the moment - and of course we've had cheaper broccoli in the recent past - and Goodfellas's Stonebaked pizzas are off (340g, 365g, etc.) but the 408-414g whatever it is ones are still on. Island Delight fresh patties are off but the multipack frozen ones are still on. Youngs Gastro fish (I don't mean the Cod Paella etc. as that's still on) have gone up in M to £3.84:(. However, we may have W comp. if :mad::mad:A ever changes that blasted 2 for £5 price online!:rotfl: (And the Basa Salt Black Pepper still £2 in T for Northern Ireland if there's any change on a.com this week.)

2x Napolina Peeled Plum Tomatoes (4X400G)
£4.00
£4.00
1x ASDA Grower's Selection Salad Tomatoes (750G)
£1.50
£1.00
1x Spam Chopped Pork And Ham (340G)
£1.99
£1.50

At last!:T (Although I did notice today that they were labelled as "Salad Tomatoes" in M rather than "Bumper Tomatoes" anymore. These were not comparing months ago. They were 92p a bit ago in M but at least they are now comparing and they currently work out better than the 6 pack on weight. Best tomatoes to have, on price, I would say, even with the M price increase/ending of 92p offer of a few months ago. Let's hope this stays as M comp. can be haphazard I feel on items such as tomatoes. I will add it to the Avs M list when I get to that. Watch it drop off vs M:rotfl::(.)
