In fact I have been delayed so long, my shop has now become due:

1x Baxters Vegetarian Country Garden (400g) £1.07 £0.75
Comparison total (compared products only) £7.81 £6.55
+£1.26 cheaper

It didn't give much APG though:(, because it was a shop of items I needed or, in the case of the Chocolate Digestive Bars, wanted to buy against the best place to compare against for that item. It's actually a couple of pence better than my original shop - I had Spiral Scourers that do not compare against anywhere unfortunately on that but my store was OOS so I picked up some of the other type of scourers, for another occasion, and put a Carrots tin to compare against S (difficult getting items against there). I was thinking of replacing the second pack of Scourers with another 40p item such as the Chocolate Cookies or the SP Caramel bars but, good job I didn't, as has anyone seen how expensive S turns out to be on those?:mad:

I bought, unusually, two of the Irish Stew - I usually buy only one of each item so I can re-use the same item on a later shop as one of the eight items and then not needing to find more items to get - however, on this occasion, I shop so rarely against S due to how difficult it is to get any good items vs there usually, that I stand little chance of doing another vs S shop for what I need. Once this glitch is over, I simply won't have eight different items to go against S due to S's mainly expensive prices - and more difficult with my SP lists unfortunately having been lost when the last thread got deleted. I miss that information, that I could have done with, but it took so long to compile it - including checking all three relevant competitor websites for every item - that it will be hard to do again (simply too time-consuming, so I think everyone will have to make do without it).

The mix and match soup above (slightly different to before) would have worked against T as those four do pick up T's mbuy. I am always thinking I will pick some mix that hasn't got T's mbuy with it, especially as it is me trying to compare against T earlier. At least vs S stood to lose just one vs 75p in case the different soup I bought this time failed to pick up S but, of course, I am fine with vs S it's just Mr T putting its prices up that thwarts my shops vs T:mad:.

Btw, 1Kg fresh carrots are 29p in Lidl (as at a few days' ago) but those tins are sometimes needed for the future - I bet somewhere will go to 19p on its bags of carrots now I got caught by 29p:(:rotfl:.

TrulyMadly

I swear I haven’t got a clue what’s going on here:rotfl:....I need to read everything and skimming does my head in.

I’d love the soup to be working tomorrow......ideal for lunchtimes:)

I’m a bit preoccupied this evening:)

Just spotted on 10Ways that the 20% birthday bonus stacks on the 3 for 2 stuff with the current weekend 20% off at Marksies

And it does....I’ve just done a trial basket:D

The birthday bonus is single use only so make sure you have everything you want before you press the submit button

So much for me doing my good deed for the day ... it always goes around and bites me on the bum.

What is wrong with the younger generation, this come day go day attitude, that they cant look after their possessions and treasure their stuff :mad:

I've seen mending kits on amazon - just wondering how difficult they would be to tackle - OH is very good with this sort of intricate stuff - and it would be here on Sunday and fixed.

Just planning my waities expedition tomorrow I need to plan within an inch of my life as I have mum every Saturday (as due to her Alzheimers she cannot be on her own... we are aiming at keeping her out of residential for as long as possible (sadly I don't think it will be long).

I have:-

Mince beef
Cubed beef
Fairy
Toilet roll

Is there any other suggestions please?

Thanks
