I needed some new pillows for the spare bed. I've ordered 2 x £6 ones from M&S claiming my £2.50 Quidco bonus on each.

Both have tracked:)

Was the quidco invite only? don't think I got one.

2x ASDA Meaty Chunks in Jelly Dog Tins (24x400) £19.00 £16.00
1x Walkers Ready Salted Crisps (6x25g) £1.65 £1.50

1x Kit Kat 2 Finger Milk Chocolate Biscuit Bar 9 Pack (9x20.7) £1.50 £1.00

Careful - £2 in M on Wednesday. That should stop 'em buying tempting treats like chocolate:rotfl:. It's conceivable the system could still be on Monday and due to update sometime on Friday (which it usually does). Don't buy Kit Kat Lemon in any event as that is believed to have remained at full price throughout this time and never went onto this offer.

Money basically. It costs too much (one third of the entire annual editorial budget for BBC regional TV bulletins) to have 15 versions (one for each region in England and the Channel Islands) of BBC ONE on HD. I think there are still also no variations of BBC TWO for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland on HD (someone correct me if this is not the case). If your region is London, you can watch BBC London News live in HD on the HD version of the BBC News Channel during earlier parts of Breakfast.

I thought this should be a further 19p approx. as the Unsalted Butter and Cucumber are same price at M. I went to A HQ about one receipt recently which included the cucumber being N/A, a missed M mbuy and I think probably another missed item and got a £5 GC:T. I think whoever replied to me quite likely didn't look into it and investigate but just took the easy option of giving the GC as the whole cucumber still continues to return N/A for M. I was thinking of replying to this post earlier but didn't do so. On a further look at this just now, I think the Ex.Special Lamb Moussaka should also have compared against M, even though M at full price, as still not 10% cheaper. I think that should have added another 26p. I notice on a.com the product even shows as having Red Wine (9.5%) in it, when M's product states it includes this on its packaging.

I'd contact A (if I hadn't done so already) and tell them you saw the shop wasn't 10% cheaper than M but looked at M's website and found a further three items that also should have compared and A was 10% cheaper so the voucher should have been somewhat more.
