Just found out that my ex (who owes me approx £kkkk in unpaid c/m from decades ago and who has resisted all efforts by various agencies to make him pay up) is gifting the child he's had in the meantime and who is now adult, the full deposit for a property.

Which is fine, except that the person concerned is also about to acquire most of my DD's house contents.

Which is fine, except they are not coming to collect these large items but want them delivered 40 miles.

Which could be fine, except that the vanloading and delivery now apparently has to take place on the very same weekend that she's moving house herself with two small children.

That is so not not fine!!

Which isn't fine. Not at all.

I have just spent half an hour on the phone soothing my vexed and stressed DD, and to my credit I have made no comment to her whatsoever concerning the first paragraph above.

Well done you for not 'commenting'

3 for 2 A untested

Garnia Olia various colours

£6.99 each A, pay £13.98. £20.97 A v £16.50 M, £6.12 apg, £7.86 for 3 (£2.62 each).

A slight risk as it is vM, so the price may not be picked up (2 for £11 in T/£7 each as insurance).

Olia was mentioned at the begining of this glitch as it is in 3for2 offer and I've been looking at it now to find it compares against more reliable S now, so I've been checking colours at both stores

Garnier Olia Permanent Hair Colour (174ml) v Sainsburys – works out £2.62 each
3 x £6.99 = £20.97 v £16.50
Pay £13.98 to get APG of £6.12 so Cost: 3 for £7.86 = £2.62 each
These colours are sold by Asda AND Sainsburys so should work
3.16 Deep Violet
4.0 Dark Brown
4.15 Iced Chocolate
4.3 Dark Golden Brown
5.0 Brown
6.0 Light Brown
6.3 Golden Light Brown
6.6 Intense Red
7.13 Dark Beige Brown
9.0 Light Blonde
9.3 Golden Light Blonde

Is my maths just going to pot, or am I going mad?
Please look at these 2 prices, to me, the 300 tablets are cheaper, but looking at the price per kg, the 120 are cheaper?

120 tablets, £17.95 (£9.97/100g)
300 tablets £33.50 (£104.69/kg)

There's an error somewhere, if the tablets are identical in size/purpose/individual weight.

Depends on how much 'weight' you need in a tablet to do the job.

(What tablets are these?? 'cos I get sent emails for all sorts of dubious ones!)
