You have been pinching them off the wrong washing line DM, these are PDs.0 -
Just popped into Waitrose and found these flours for 75p (even though they are showing as £1.50 on MSM). So at only 25p each after CB.....Not too bad! :j
I checked on MSM earlier and it flashed 75o before refreshing, so looks like the offer finished today. Shame as it would have brought the price down to 18p.

Oh alright.
It's on the list but... just to draw attention:
M (frozen) Pork Cocktail Sausages 36 per pack - 530g are 50p RTC.:T
Or they can offer you 50 in a pack for £1.50:eek::eek::( (probably the only ones offered to you in most stores).
I was in stock as well too - but no chance of ever getting them home within any reasonable time without spoiling so I had to leave them:(. Never mind - it's 50p I wouldn't otherwise have spent on sausages and we'll just eat nothing at all now:rotfl:!
I think there is a reason why the store I had them in was in stock - although the price was clearly showing, the product in the particular M seemed bunched up in a section of the freezer that had quite a lot of other products in the same place in it so I suspect the public more generally is not noticing it as much in that store! There's always a reason why things are where they are or what price they are, as well as why they have been bought or why they have not. Human beings more generally (not me obviously as I'm slightly different:D:rotfl::T:j:rotfl:) do seem to me, from observation (I'm an observer:D, I watch you all and your 'strange' ways:rotfl: - but :eek:not in that way, nothing creepy or anything), to be very easy to influence indeed as to what they buy and usually make very poor choices - determined far more than they think - and largely influenced by the supermarkets' layout and promotion. Plural as they are "all at it"!:rotfl: And why would they not be? They are all heavily researched and all aimed at extracting as much cash as possible, in order for them to make money to sustain their existence (quite reasonably enough!) as that is what they are aimed at - they're commercial businesses:doh:, so are doing their job!
Hopefully someone will have luck with the 36 pack Cocktail Sausages - they are in at least one M as of yesterday and I hope they are in a lot more than that! And I hope they are 50p (or, if not, I doubt it but we can wish, they are even lower).0 -

I think all places pull the best offers as soon as they possibly can, as they obviously don't want to keep them at those prices for too long! They are shortlived - and we know the importance of snapping them up as soon as possible (and stocking up where necessary!) the same way as with glitches. I suspect everything that is a really good offer is purely aimed at getting us into the store with the intention of trying to have us buy much more - therefore the very thing we should avoid doing as much as possible - just buy the one item and scarper:money:! They don't want those really really good prices - they don't make them money!
In this post, I'm just stating the bleeding obvious though, that will be obvious to all of us who are reading, so this post is pointless:rotfl:.0 -
