Quite correct, I had also done 3x dove soap so thought that would work for 6 but of course it doesn't

Thanks. It's therefore not a report of the item no longer working. Neither was the report of the Lynx Energised returning N/A against S a report of anything that should have worked - as S do not have this product (at least not online). It's helpful that 3Dogs' list tells us to avoid it:T.

I think the OS against S - it seems it was only the four shower milks - does need removing as I had no luck with the SELs in my A. Those are now showing £1 - unless they are really going through at £1.50 and giving the 3 for 2 and £1 being the price for tomorrow, in which case I missed a GC on two. It looks like they need removing almost as soon as they were added:mad:. As well as blaming A for apparently putting the individual price to the same price as the offer and taking the offer away, I blame S for not having the Energised shower gel - I think they ought to bring it into their stock so that it makes my shopping at A more efficient - or not even have it in stock, just put it onto sains.co.uk and show it as available at £1 would do!:rotfl:

It seems the SP Minced Beef & Veg. Pasty is following Mr T (the only competitor with an equivalent) and going up to 39p from midnight tonight:(. I had the SEL at 30p and it is scanning through at 30p:( - I still bought one however as I feel there will be no hope for me - if they are going up, my A will change its SEL by the time I'm next there as they often do. However, if it goes to 39p that is now online, it may be worth looking out for if the SEL says 30p - technically, if you are really paying 39p at the outset, it is best vs T (for a few pence, lost by buying 7 other items if that would need doing a special APG shop) - otherwise, at 30p, it's best bought straight or put as a filler on any comp. except T.

I was to have bought two tins of peeled plum tomatoes (SP) on my S shop as I had the money left on my voucher and to see if the M mbuy is being picked up. However one of the tins went onto the pasty instead, as I needed that more than another tin of tomatoes, so my shop will not now achieve this aim. I am already having to try to stop the Muller Rice Strawberries from being taken within 24 hours of my shopping - I am fighting a losing battle I feel as, if I go out for another shop or turn my back in any way, there will be another few gone:mad:. As it was, I need more items as I'm buying duplicates of the Rice Strawberry which is everyone's favourite so goes even quicker. I originally thought two shops was enough, for a variety of flavours, then, after doing my second shop, I thought I needed to do another one as I had not bought nearly enough to last. I've now done a further shop on top, but I'm now thinking this is still not nearly enough.

Just had an email from Tesco that I have clubcard vouchers that are running out in a few days. Do check if you have vouchers that end 30/11/17.

Thinking of using them for hotels.com this time as have a lot of avios already.

Remember if you have vouchers that are running out and have nothing you need just now, phone them up and they will reissue them on you next statement. |Extending their live by 2 years.

They stopped doing that a couple of years ago

Yes, I feel as we're abandoning our son on his first Christmas home in two years (he has been in China) I was going to get him a dash cam & a sat nav (not purchased yet!) I have luckily got out of buying for sister 'that has everything' and brother that has an horrendous ornament (a matching one of which I was given for my birthday, (he got them clearing out a shop!:eek:) ready to give me for Christmas, by saying that as we are away, lets not do prezzies!:rotfl:

you can always do Christmas again when you get back - we are doing 2 Christmasses this year - our first home alone one and rhen 2 days later the House Party one

:j Got these today (after funeral )

Ms

I've just been to M and they were totally out of these and the 24 loo rolls for £5 and the soap powder (though that wasn't so much of a bargain). I ended up buying two litres of Bombay Sapphire which will last me for a while now and then another £10 of bits I needed or had vouchers for (soup and Princes tangerines – the tangerines gave me overage as they were 2 for £1.60 and the vouchers scanned at £1). I got the 10p a litre off fuel voucher (though had a sense that the prices were not the cheapest) and my account is telling me that I earned enough More points for £5 which was an offer in an email which I activated. So I'm pleased with my shop despite their not having loo rolls and tea.

I'd looked at the Prosecco offer but they have a better one at A, assuming that the quality is comparable, £25 for 6 bottles. Does anyone know if that compares to anything please? I rather fancy getting a further 10% off if that doesn't mess up a shop.

I have one (older version) and it is fine - you can add Android apps on it and haven’t been bothered by the adverts.
