    Never take much notice of giftcards, but I need 2, one for Game and one for New Look, does anyone know of any offers around for them please.

    This is not a lot of use to you but you can convert Quidco cashback into Zeek with 15% top up.
    Or into a New Look e voucher for a 10% top up.

    Not sure if you can take an e voucher instore and buy a physical gift card with it

    I got the Breville VKT124 today in the double up. It was reduced to £35 so a bargain . They also had some other brands but can't remember which now.

    Yes that's the one I saw at £55 sel today.
    I'll try to call in tomorrow and get it price checked. £29.99 in Argos but if I can use my points I don't mind the extra fiver.

    Thanks again.

    :hello: It turns out I have got my weeks (and even my months) mixed up - I thought there was an evening meal I was required for tonight but that is next month, with it being the Christmas dinner. So it is not today that I have the even more restricted time for M but, instead, it is next week (for something yet else) and, probably even worse, the week after that - as usual, they want everything on Wednesday:mad:. Today may be the last proper M collection I am able to do until we are already into December. I was going not to do as much and catch more next week/the week after. However, obviously those are unlikely to be happening now so I have brought the extra stores forward to today but hopeless and useless as I will immediately lose track until at least three weeks away. I have been (and still are) doing as best as I can today, as I missed out Monday, trying to work out which of my stores are showing the correct prices and therefore which prices have changed and have failed to be changed. There will be a lot of alterations to the list to make. For now, on the H&B items, the following is what is currently believed: I expect the Palmolive Aromas and all the Palmolive Gourmet Butters already to be off against M. The Vaseline single tin products are still on (except I don't seem to have those on my list?:think::huh: - don't know what happened to those at the moment, maybe they are not 3 for 2 in A, I don't know, all to be worked out later) but the Nivea lip sticks and the Head & Shoulders shampoos, conditioners and 2 in 1 products are expected to be off against M soon.

    The Nivea Q10 Anti-Age Care Hand Cream (75ml) is expected to be off soon vs M - it may go onto vs W but not as good as M will probably still be today on the APG. I can't see when the W offer went on - it may not matter if it's available vs W (probably worse than current delayed M on the APG) from tomorrow, although W usually go on on Mondays in any event. It seems there is no price graph on msm anymore:(. Despite all my criticisms of the graphs, not having any graph at all is worse.

    I am not yet finished with the M prices as I still have a third of my stores to visit. For now, I will leave you with an item from the freezer section - Birds Eye 6 Fish Fillets in Crumb (600g) at 71p. Looks like no trace for T and A - if it turns out to be available in T instore though, unlike the APG, it should compare against M (in Great Britain) as the price label does not say it is reduced to clear; my store has it as a price reduction with crossed out price of over £2 (not bothered about what price that was) even though it scans with a "Frozen clearance" reduction. Watch T turn out to have it in store on RTC cheaper:(:rotfl::). However, it's asking for TBG to have it in however many, or few, Ms it uses - I have it in one of my stores (so far) but will the TBG? This is all hypothetical regarding T as it looks, from online, like they don't have it. Best of luck trying to find it in M.

    If anyone has not done their Quidco offers tonight is the final time - you have to log on and activate and spend at least £6.

    If you have marks sparks log onto your account. The 20% off clothing, beauty, home and furniture is supposed to start tomorrow but on my account it said click for a bonus and the 20% off is working now.

    So I was looking at jeggings for which I have a 20% offer already activated on my Sparks but also the general 20% off worked as well so a £15 pair came down to £9.60 :T
    This might be useful if you have items in mind for gifts
