But according to MySupermarket Waities don't sell them, I'm confused

I looked when yellowbird first posted and there's no sign of them in W on msm Sue.


Sometimes you just have to put your trust in the Elite magic:D

Is anyone else watching Shop Well For Less? A family of 6 with £12000.00 pairs of designers shoes!! The wife keeps the heating at 30 degrees!! They did a test on different washing powders and she used Fairy at 37p per wash. She obviously doesn't shop at W with my picks!!
Unbelievable how much money people waste!!
The wife also takes a shower for 45 minutes

My showers don't even last 4.5 minutes.....that includes hair wash and conditioner as I turn if off in between:rotfl:

yes, just watched it.
Who has time with 6 kids to have 45 min showers - I could barely go to the loo without all hell breaking loose (3 kids, 2 cats, 1 Oh)
And what do you do in a shower for 45 mins anyway ...

All I can think is that they never go out as a family - no days out, no after school clubs, no sports. No mention of travel to work expenses either or what cars they ran ...
Perhaps they live on their credit cards

If we had the heating at 30 degrees I would be permanently asleep! All with the highest priced tech, and all those shoes is ridiculous. I would not want to run a house with 6 kids though, and my mate who has 6 with only 4 at home would never have time for 45 minutes showers, she struggles with 5 minutes ones :eek:

Thanks TM. So emotional to watch. The London Clinic does around 19 peripheral stem cell donations a week and a few bone marrow but not many as peripherals is preferred where possible.
Please share the DKMS website with friends as more donors needed especially mixed race.
They looked after us far better than some of the other donors from different charities and dd employers were brilliant paying her for the time off work.
DD still achey and tired today but she has slept most of the day. I think having to do 2 days as didn't hit target first day took it out of her more but if she needs to do a second donation they now know she peaks on day 6 so will be easier.

DD was inspired to join the register by her grandads both having blood cancer but the time she joined they were desperately searching for a match for a little girl same age as dgd.

I had a look at the website and the upper age is 55

Yes except the knives and forks had the handles the wrong way round which made it tricky to eat......why reinvent the wheel?

I had mozzarella and tomato salad to start and mushroom risotto for main...made with bacon pieces, port and cream....a bit too rich for me. I had to open the button on my trousers before I got in the car to drive home:o:rotfl:

I've never seen it on MSM for waities, but it's been showing on Waitrose own site like this for a few days at least.

Not showing on waities own site, but does show if you google, like you said.

Hi Saversue,
Here's a shop from today from your local store, I think.
Hope this helps

Hello Lango, long time no see:) Thanks.

Did you order subs or not ? Can't remember what's the best. Thought it was better to have subs, then still got a product, but price matched for original ordered. May have got that totally wrong (head not in a good place at the moment).

Intended to pay with e-vouchers that I have been renewing forever, but this creates problems if no goods because (from bitter experience) is nearly impossible to get them re-credited. Seems to take at least 6 phone calls and lots of promises over several weeks.

Probably best if I bow out of this one, or use real money :rotfl:

Good evening all, the venus thing is strange as it isnt on my waities site and wasnt a few days ago either, does this then depend on area
and if so do sada compare differently in different areas perhaps?
