I held them for a while, good yield and although in the weakest position of all the big 4 SuperMarkets it just means its easier for them to turn things around, they have started to do so buying 49 Blockbuster stores to open Mini Convenience stores, which is one of the two areas they are lacking most in, the other being no real online presence which again they have started to plan for with the recent change in the executive team.

Half of the work needed for dealing in shares is research, you just need to know where to look

My point being is right now 264.94 WAS a good selling price, there is a reason most EFT only hold onto the stock for a matter of minutes, looking for lots of small gains, rather than one big gain, you got greedy and it cost you.

more reasons to **** off to asda

I used to work there. I'm glad I did - whenever I'm having a bad day I summon the memory of lugging barrels of week old chicken fat from the rotisseries down to the loading bay. £1.97 an hour Get more than that going for a piss now.

Dublin! No Morries here - LPG in Tallacht though, wherever that is, which reminds me, gotta post in the proper forums....

I'm also at fault. I spent £65 there at 7pm (as I needed fuel).

Thought I would make the most of the high Morrisons share price, had a limit order placed last night hoping to get 265 per share.

The days high was 264.94 thanks to the horse meat fun and games (Ant and Dec advert working its Morrisons Magic) and now sliding again, was in the 240's only the other week.

Not sure if to just cancel the limit order and see what the next few months does.

Now I have left, the shares are tumbling pretty rapidly!
