Basically says everything is it says on the list. The items of interest from there, for me, are not the SP items but instead the Thin & Crispy pizzas. I note A has put its price back down to £1:(. The Pepperoni pizza is comparing as stated (rounding the price to 95p). However, the Cheese pizza

ASDA Thin & Crispy Cheese Pizza (330g)£1.00 £1.037735849... I am moving M's price upwards due to finding a lower weight in M:(. This is Cheese & Tomato. However, SP Cheese & Tomato Pizza (268g)60p vs 60p M.

is comparing slightly more favourably than I have on here (£1 vs £1:(). This makes me think the price collectors may not have noticed a weight change in M (surprise surprise as they are unlikely to be autistic:rotfl:). I think this weight change took place some time ago - I was a little late myself in picking it up. Price collectors it seems yet to pick it up.

The comparison against the 12 pack donuts at £1 in M may be a glitch. I have managed to find some which seem clearly to be priced at £2.50 in M (BC 0249813 002505). This may have been comparing against the teacakes or [Strike]whatever it is the other item that's currently on £1 in M[/Strike] the fairy cakes (the fairy cakes are actually on the comparison above but do not compare favourably) at £1 in M.

Additionally, we saw the 40 pack pedal bin liners comparing against 97p in M. I think this is an old price as the ones I have in my store are showing and scanning at £1.20. Again this may have been corrected on the APG since or it may still be comparing against 97p if they have that one store that has the SEL saying 97p and hasn't changed it for many months (which is certainly possible). Or there could indeed be some version on another BC in M, which I have long lost, which is still 97p. Afaik, this 'product' (assuming it is one product and not two identical products of the same description on different BCs hence technically two different products) went up from 97p to £1.20 many months ago. Note I only have the 40 pack that I have in one store. It could well therefore be that the collectors just have it in one store and, if that store happens to maintain an incorrect SEL, that may be the price they will pick up.

They are now stating half the aisle in one newscast I've just seen. Perhaps they are now hearing my 'complaint' from the ether:rotfl:.

Which half?

The first half or the second half?

If anyone has a Fr33domP0p sim using the "completely free" 200mb, check your account settings. They have switched on an automatic £10 top up without my intervention - and charge you £3.49 per month for a new safety feature to switch it off!

Or maybe the middle half with the two separate quarters around it:rotfl:.

Apparently, unless I've now misunderstood and I may well have done, she's now walking the other half alone, but with the page boys etc. So, she's not walking it "alone" at all but has the page boys etc. with her!

Is there any way to bank the onetwo ratuken movie code for another time or is it best not to use it if there is nothing you really want to see in the hope of getting offered the deal again later?

You can claim it every time it comes round

If you apply it to your account you have until the middle of next week to chose a film (from memory).

Get a £50 Amazon voucher for £9 or £7 at Tui (via vouchercodes)
https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/get-a-50-amazon-voucher-for-7-or-9-tui-via-vouchercodes-2936501

Worth a punt? One of the t&cs is that they can change the t&cs though

If anyone did this it look like they'll pay out but you might need to chase them up first. This is the standard email people on HUKD are getting back when they enquire:

"Thanks for getting back to us.

We work really hard to ensure we have great offers for users as we love helping people save money. However, when you got in touch to query why your reward status had not progressed, unfortunately our investigations concluded your reward did not track and did not meet out terms and conditions.

After receiving an unexpected number of similar queries, we decided to investigate this further as something did not seem quite right.

We looked into this further, and discovered the purchases placed through TUI's sister sites, such as excursion.tui.co.uk were not passed through to us by TUI and so they have not been attributed to VoucherCodes. This is why we were unable to verify your transaction for the reward. However, people who placed their bookings through tui.co.uk have tracked and are on their way to receive a reward.

In light of our findings we're happy conclude that we will be approving your transaction as a one off gesture of goodwill despite us being unable to track it.

Your voucher will be available after 60 days have passed since placing your order as per the terms and conditions of the offer, if after this time you have not heard from us please reply to this email and we'll help.

Hope this explains everything and please accept our apology for any frustration and confusion caused.

Kind Regard"
