With the big winds a couple of years back we lost a few panels, and it even managed to snap a concrete post :eek: Was the devils own job to replace it as it was cemented into the patio :eek:

We have just checked in for our Rome flights

Have a lovely time, safe trip xx

I think that, for now, I will not be able to go to M as often as before. I might be going again next on 22nd March, presumably with the supplementary stores required for some regional items the following day. You may remember I posted that I might get a further two pages (that is, two sides) from the further stores on Thursday. I ended up with almost that from the first store alone:rotfl:. Just so many items missing after my stores on Wednesday! To be fair many of them were the specialist items. I needed the Kosher range which I have got now (or probably only some of it: as with every range, I suspect I'm incomplete). Instead of two sides of information, I ended up with about another five:rotfl:. Nearly sixteen sides in total:eek:.

I'm updating on and off over the next few days and I'll continue updating to 22nd February regardless. A similar situation last time in the end didn't turn out too bad, as many of the offers were still on - those that have only started on Wednesday may be on for a few weeks yet. Some of the list will become out of date, although it will at least be fairly close to what is, but will just need checking online that the items are still on wherever that is possible.

If you want an idea of just how much extra there was on Wednesday and Thursday, you can take a look at the list now. I'm nearly a quarter of the way through and have almost updated Tuesday (except the items that had expired on Wednesday have been skipped of course). I've got a Garlic Tear & Share Bread to do as a special project later as there are potentially several different ones and weight adjustments. I've also put off some Bernard Matthews cooked meats on mbuy (not very good as exactly the same price on an offer before where you only needed to buy one pack), I have a very large number of Cow & Gate and Heinz baby jars on 10 for £5 that I'll do separately later and I've skipped a Table Fun Cake item as my writing is illegible (I think it's related to Valentine's Day - items from which I am now going big on, I currently dislike Easter:rotfl:). Apart from those, Tuesday's items (that would still be on on Wednesday) are now updated.

I have encroached slightly into Thursday as I have updated the Coke Zero cans that would be comparable from T, as they were already on the list. I came across them on Thursday, which I understand is a TBG collection day, although I suspect they may well not have them in any of the three TBG stores. I just happened to visit one of the right stores that had them out - items go from store to store and around though, and this one clearly still there as of Thursday, as they appear in stores more widely, then they disappear out of several stores, then remain in one of them for me, then disappear from there, then another store, that didn't have them last time I visited, brings stock out that I find later etc. I just happened to bump into (not literally) a load of stock on Thursday - now weeks after I suspect I will have lost them from elsewhere (indeed, like several of my items, this is an item I now currently have in only one store, out of in the end 16 stores visited this week: I also ended up with the Dry Roast Peanuts in only one store, so was right to buy what I saw there, as many as I needed, and I didn't see the Jumbo Salted Peanuts at all). I actually have more stock of the Coke Zero than I had around before, but now only in one store (they will be in more than that but, for me, it's one out of 16). So, still available in M three weeks after my previous checks lost them and still available over six weeks after they appeared until about four weeks ago when they were becoming increasingly harder to find.

Tbh, I had the Coke Zero as a missing item on Wednesday but gave up at the end having not found it. As I wasn't too bothered with it by then - "it will probably still be around" I thought (and it won't have changed in price) - I didn't have it as one of the more significant missing items to look for on Thursday - and then I found it when I wasn't looking for it:rotfl:. More of it than ever before! I managed to find most things I needed but, as ever, I still have the odd ones outstanding at the end (and the missing now not many so not worth bothering trying to find).

I suspect the £2 Babycham/Cherry B/Snowball are all around (each one in different stores) somewhere now, although at the moment I've lost them entirely after having them each becoming more difficult to find and, by about five to three weeks ago, finding only one or two of them and then another maybe later but having more difficulty as not seeming to be around as much as before - now, not got them at all but they will I think all be in stores I haven't visited. It would take only one store for me to find one of them but I just don't have that store this time.

If you look at the list now, you'll be able to see, when the 'final' one gets completed, whenever that is (and I suspect a few days yet), just how much extra there is. That will still be good though as offers that have just started and are slowly being added will still be on and there will also be RTC items that are buy in M that will still be available somewhere or might not even have reached your store yet and could be there by the time the information is put onto here. I think last time encouraged people to find a lot better items that they would never have found before though as they did not have to rely on the list:rotfl:. I will keep going with the updating intermittently until I eventually get to the latest information that I have (slightly out of date in parts soon but at least closer to the current time than without the updating). There is a lot (which is not unplanned for) and at least not going to M will allow me to continue to get it done:cool:.

You can check in early with EasyJet, a month or 4 weeks, not sure which. We prefer to get checked in early.
