    I also had a mixed shop lol, I done a Palmolive shop at 8:30 this morning went through at 1.50 each 2 for 2, and said 1.50 on sel. then was out of town so went to big asda, they were marked as £2 and no offer, got them checked and they were 2 each or 2 for 2, did 4 shops and they were 2 on receipt, took them to car and went back for the rest on shelf and they went through at 1.50 each, so it updated there around 11 there lol
    Nice to be stocked on shower gels again ty OP xx


    had a call this morning from boots, please go and collect my orders as there is no room in there back area for anything else - whoops so now also stocked up on shampoo and conditioner and hairspray!!


    I must say I was rather impressed with the free orla Kiely drawstring bag that came with the soaps, its fab!

    Good job you're not offering me any of them, which I know you're not and wouldn't, I'd have to turn you down :cool: I don't like any of those flavours of crisps or crackers :p :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Quick shower and get comfy for tv :D
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    First shop results - shower gel compared at £2 to £1 v S.

    Second shop compared at £1.50 to £1 v S.

    So system updated somewhere between 14.03 and 14.28.

    By the way, sels each time were £2 each with no indication of a multibuy, but I could hardly go and tell them I hadn't paid enough! :rotfl:

    The instore price updates seem to depend on the store activating rather than a national update, from the above and other experiences posted.

    Fortunately not a complete failure as APG is still missing the multi :D.

    Thank you - I've just done my self assessment for 2015/16 and have included interest from savings . It was this year ie 2016/17 that I was concerned about - I thought the £1000 allowance started this year ?

    Yes the £1000 tax allowance starts this tax year - 2016/17.

    If anyone finds dishwasher powder, as in loose powder not tablets, at a reasonable price please let me know. Tablets clog up the drains and I don't need the 3in1, 5in1 or whatever else nonsense is in the tablets. Just want the old fashioned powder. Tesco used to do own brand and then did daisy brand (cheap). Now they only have Finish 1kg which is really expensive. Checked Morrisons and they are the same.

    I agree powder is so much cheaper and does the job. Luckily I bought a stash of daisy powder on the clearance counter when they discontinued. I will keep my eyes open for you.
