Fwiw, Lyons Biscuits Toffypops (120g) are 2 for £1 in M. Exactly the same price as 240g pack in Iceland:wall:. It could well be that somewhere like T actually has them and could have them cheaper (so keep off TBG as M's pricing is not RTC - individual price there is obviously even higher than 50p!) as they are no longer on t.com - sure T had Toffypops at one time, or maybe I have just seen them in my T Extra at some point and they were never online?:think: - if they have dropped off online, could suggest they are on cheaper RTC. Or, indeed, they could, speculatively, be available in Poundstretcher on 'cheap' price as an item that isn't on their website - I have no information to say they are: I can't even find the items that are on there yet alone much else:rotfl:. Poundstretcher does have various dated stock of biscuits on cheaper in various stores (probably continuously somewhere in the country at any one time:rotfl:) and obviously the prices they have on those items aren't on their website.

EDIT: Found that Farmfoods is currently 39p.

We had the fresh Twin Garlic & Herb Baguettes (430g) comparing £1.50 vs M at £1.02 price adjustment earlier - and may still be doing so if the system hasn't been updated - however it is now moving to A's Garlic & Herb Baguette Slices 9 pack (290g) and Reduced Fat version (same number, same weight) - stands no chance of working until the prices are updated - at £1.40 vs a little over £1.04 for M.

There is/was a baguette at 50p in A that doesn't, or didn't, work out well at all vs M.

I have A's Wafer Thin Cooked Chicken (200g) and A's Wafer Thin Honey Roast Ham (200g) at £1.25 vs £1 M on the new price collection day and they are to be added to the list vs M this time. Doubt they will have them ever:rotfl:.

NYC 600g soups that I had at £1 A vs £1 M (should already be working and no change in price in M yesterday).

Carrot & Butternut
Classic Chicken
Potato & Leek
Seasonal Veg.
Skinny Tomato & Veg.
Soup of the Month (Pumpkin & Ginger in both stores, not that I know whether or not that matters)
Tomato & Basil
Wild Mushroom White Wine.

Sorry for the delay earlier. If I suggested I wouldn't be able to post the information until much later tonight, then I have managed to find time to find it now - I give long time estimates (that have people frowning:( when I give them - usually they are realistic estimates as to just how long a proper and complete job really takes) so as not to disappoint when I then beat my own estimate and provide the information earlier than expected:T. I tell you how long completely-done jobs really take. More people, it seems to me, make something up that they won't be able to meet and then do an incomplete (but satisfactory for most people) job. One that is actually flawed and will most likely fall down several years ago as something was missed at the outset. As regards suggesting you may have to wait long for a job to be done, which will then, I hope, from me be a complete job, and you won't need to come back saying "you missed something" or complaining justifiably about part of the job that wasn't done, my long time estimate is about managing expectations:rotfl:. (I will be open with you, and cards on the table to my own detriment, by telling you you and your expectations are being managed:rotfl::rotfl:.) People then, I hope, are really happy when they find I've done something earlier than I promised - but I also don't disappoint by delivering late, or not at all, unlike it seems many people do, as I tend to give estimates that I can meet (or exceed):). I aim to do what I say I will, by the time by which I say it will be done. I find that I think this is a strange concept to many people:rotfl:.

Righto, I am still doing things in RL as well though - so, having provided the essential information (and a lot more that wasn't:rotfl:), see you later:wave:.

Well what a carry on!

Such is my obsession with this thread that I sat for the last hour of our journey home last night in the back of the car reading snippets from the thread on mr TM’s phone. It made me feel travel sick but I soldiered on:rotfl:

Thank you redfox for our new home....loving the title:D

Let’s get the thanks back up for 3dogs and savvy:T:T:T

I’m so enjoying a proper catch up:)

I think mhoc and LEJC need to play that game......is it called consequences?....where you write down the first line of the story and then swap pieces of paper and the next person writes the next line:rotfl:

I get so absorbed in people’s lives:)


I think it’s called being nosey:rotfl:

Off to eat a very special roast dinner....special request from DS....and a proper catch up later:)
