I'm off to bed now. With being up early this morning, and working in shop this afternoon, and having to get up in morning for a 9.40 asthma review appointment, I need to see if Berry Bear will let me sleep yet. I'm going to give them their supper with a good dose of his sedative in his, so fingers crossed

I meant milky bar.....I knew you'd said milky bar....I thought I'd written milky bar but somehow it says cadburys:rotfl:

I've only eaten 3. They were the wonky ones:cool:

I have some Milky Bar:D, some very good price for some Milky Bars as well:D:D, I now notice you are mentioning Milky Bar buttons, but mine are Milky Bars, that will blow everyone else's prices from earlier out of the water! I've just opened the packs to see how big they are/how much is in the packs as I wasn't sure - and I wish I'd bought far more of them now:rotfl:.

It's those Discovery packs from Christmas - the Smarties ones were also available to me too - that someone bought at T at 50p when I had them in M at 66p or something like that - or maybe they were 75p in T and 67p in M:think:, I forget which, but - should have waited until now as they are now 10p in M:D:rotfl:.

I suggested earlier that there had been little change in M over the last three weeks. However, I was wrong! There's been absolutely lots of change in M. I was checking the items that I had at the start of the month and the vast majority of them were still showing as on in M on msm. However, there are a lot of additional items that have gone onto offer that I didn't have on 1st or 2nd February, as they were not on offer then, that I therefore wasn't checking and had not seen. Of course there is no chance of me updating the list at all before I go out tomorrow morning, so I will not have an updated list to take to M. So I will just have to remember everything:rotfl::rotfl: (I probably will!).

Some items that have just taken off the list, as I had them on offer on 1st February but msm had gone to full price - I am going to be putting them straight back:mad::rotfl: as it looks like they are now back on offer. This being Cadbury's Hot Chocolate Sponge Puddings, Flora Cuisine and Haribo Strawbs (160g) bag. The Maoam Pinballs and Stripes and Sour Stripes bags are onto 74p now that they were not before. I suspect the sponge puddings, the Cuisine and the Strawbs, that I literally deleted yesterday only in order to be adding them back again, probably in a few days' time:mad:, were simply due to go back on offer after these three weeks as my updating has happened to fall on the normal offer cycle.

The M Delicate Bottoms Baby Nappy Cream tubs have now gone to 40p RTC - which is very good unless/until they go any lower still. They've probably gone already from some or many stores now (how many Savvy?:p No idea:rotfl:) but someone did have some earlier today as I had them available to me. There is also some Cotton Buds pack, fwiw, now at 20p. I also have M Hello Gorgeous Mug and M Hello Handsome Mug each at 50p.

And - remember this? - http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/morrisons-ice-cream-chocolates-9-pack-153ml-was-2-now-50p-2593539.

Well, yes indeed that 50p price has expired (allegedly on until 5th February according to hukd - I have no clue) - it's expired, thankfully, as that was way too high and they are now 10p:rotfl:. Someone on there at the time said you'd be "...lucky to find [them] in any store", however I didn't agree back then as I had them in a number of stores and I had stock. I now have more stock than I have ever seen:rotfl:, in one store, obviously no SEL. They have the Profiteroles showing £1.50 RTC, I suspect they have now gone to £1 or possibly even lower but no stock for me at the moment so I can't check. It will take a lot of time to find lots of items and try to determine what has and hasn't changed - I suspect I have got merely a quarter of it so far and I think there will be items that I am currently missing (I've only checked two stores:rotfl:) and may remain missing that may well have gone to cheaper RTC than I have had before. Some of the post-Christmas freezer items and, also, I wonder whether the Baby Potty has gone cheaper now? I also have several Nuby items on 50p RTC (I will need to find them again from what I have written).

M's Bulger Wheat & Couscous Mix bag 300g has gone to 60p RTC.

So that's just a few of the better items from today. On the downside, I think some of the gardening items have made a reappearance now and have gone up in price, for example the J Arthur Bowers bonemeal or similar whatever item it was that I have had at RTC price. The cat pellets were found to have gone from RTC price to full price:eek: last time (1st February) so they were already removed. The Bird's Eye Hello Morning Cinammon waffles pack may also have gone from RTC back to full price, I'll need to check if it's the same one that I now have - I have BB date March 2017 on my pack - although :think:they are on "Try Me Free" flash pack so maybe it does not matter how much you originally pay. I suspect I will also be removing some pancake-related products now, that may have been around somewhere on RTC not so long ago - a very rare store in which they may have remained - but obviously have arrived more widely now and have gone up in price for the start of the 'season'. The Pepsi bottles 500ml/600ml aren't 2 for £1.80 that I had on 1st February - they have gone up to 2 for £2 by now so they will be removed later as well. I'm currently thinking the Velvet Crunch crisps are up in price to £1.50 but will need to see confirmation of whether or not that's the case when I do the full check tomorrow. Oh, and the (largely own label) biscuits that were 2 for 70p for a long time, then went to 2 for 75p recently, are now 45p and 2 for 80p:(.

That's it for now!:)

I think I'm going to have a cup of tea and go to bed. I can't decide whether or not to go to Richmond or Greenwich tomorrow. Or to be more precise, which has better shops and new pokemon

You definitely have no shame... little Ms Pokeman!

We are normally confuddled as well. We probably introduce ourselves...

I'd love to visit the house indeed live there, it would take a lifetime to explore, but then it has taken a lifetime to collect. Very special x
