    I think it took us all a lot of time to figure it out. AND we still make mistakes. Let her know that, or she will feel bad when she makes a oopsie.

    I do sometimes get "You can't open any more envelopes" message, but I think that's because I've tried to open them too close together less than 20-30 secs (this is just what I'm guessing, I don't know for sure).

    But it still lets me open more after that. I just click on my bank card and count how many transactions I've had that day and get it up to 10.

    Some days I struggle to get 10 if I'm not near an SS till!

    I've had the envelopes there but they have disappeared when I try to open them:(

    Nope, mine from yesterday that I didn’t Open as the app crashed are nowhere to be seen :(.

    I do have a few winners though so cannot really complain.

    Hoping for the PEx £50 voucher :).

    Incidentally, didn’t N3ctar repeat the PEx deal around this time as I seem to remember using some last Christmas?

    Yes as suspected, my propercorn pushed me over £20 :(.

    Also messed up putting propercorn in with Muller so it matched T not S.

    I am having a run of misadventure!!

    Anon

    A bit like my shopping today, which has come out best against S instead of M:(. I knew this was a shop I shouldn't have bothered with and was bound to fail after I got my shopping bag with my voucher in it wet:(.

    I saw that M had doubled its price on the Flash 60 Anti-Bac wipes online and I suddenly decided that I needed some. I had the offer in M as being due to be on for a few more weeks yet, but A's price increase from £1 to £2 may have caused M to follow suit:(.

    I saw Lemon Wipes are now, or still, £1 on m.com, supposed to be until a long date in December away, and Google's cache went back two days on each product and Antibac Wipes £2 then and now and Lemon £1 then and now.

    :(I need not have bothered as S is £1 on each, and W 2 for £2 for some time yet, so worse I could have targetted W if the Mullers were still not available vs S when I came to do a shop later on.

    My Ms are in doubt about these products as I have one store that has always showed £2 on each of them, never put the offers up but the other has offer price on each and I still had that on Wednesday. Afaik therefore, each of them was £1 on Wednesday (but there are full price SELs around and, if the collectors have too many, they could get £2). I was going to buy one of each type (£1 price on both Antibac and Lemon in the M that has ever put the offers up for me), although I had enough items already. However, instore I chickened out trying the Antibac Wipes as they were now showing £2 online and I bought two Lemon (now showing £1 online and I thought rolled over - have long been that).

    Vs M
    2x Flash All Purpose Cleaning Wipes Lemon (60pk) £4.00 £4.00:mad:

    I probably should have bought two Antibac instead:(. The reason being that, on my way back from the shopping (as usual, always afterwards:(), I thought that Lemon would probably fail - if it's been continuously been £1 but been rolled over, several stores may have their SELs up to £2 full price SEL for two days around Tuesday and Wednesday in order to put the product back to £1 on Thursday/Friday. Meanwhile, I thought I should have bought Antibac (which, to be honest, I wanted more than Lemon:() as, if it's £2 online and even Google at £2 on 1st December, that may well work against £1 M if it was £1 on Wednesday. I thought it was £1 but was put in doubt now by seeing £2 online:(.

    What I should have done was totally ignore online and not be influenced by it - instead, stick to my guns and go precisely by what I have from instore on Wednesday!:p However, I have each of them at £1 on Wednesday. The trouble is my stores - one of them doesn't put the offers on display at all and the other one fails to change its SEL up for two days and then put it back down again so it doesn't tell me that the prices are changing.

    The Lemon offer is also on for a while now, supposed to be, which suggests this offer period may only just have been started (after the product went to £2 SEL in several Ms, timed on price collection day:mad:).

    I also bought Dove handwash with them, trying to target M, but the comp. has gone vs S (Flash wipes £1 each there). It could have been far worse than it was but at least the Dove is £1.10 S although I have lost a bit as some SP items I bought have lost out vs S. I should just have stuck to wipes and Mullers and not bought the Doves at all:(.

    EDIT: (:rotfl:)

    :)

    Well we went to the little theatre to see 2 plays, starting at 3pm.
    I expected to stay in town, sipping a drink & then go onto Bingo for 6.30pm (we set it up before doors open)

    2 plays & an interval - we were out by 4pm :o:o

    So walked up the huge hill home & I made a mushroom & onion quiche (:eek:) with gluten free pastry :D

    Back out again now :)
