    Is it double it and divide by three
    so they are comparing at 93p
    so 93 x 3=279 divided by 2 =139ish
    1 x Pom-Bear Cheese & Onion Potato Snacks
    dont see how that works and could be totally wrong so dont rush out

    I agree with that maths at least. Its where i would start. But Pom bears are £1.39, 2 for £2.00 in W's. That would be a totally different glitch if it was that

    smart1e, can you please please please post your list again and this time highlight in red which ones were showing as red on your results screen? (it wont show red on the iphone app, need to use the apg website)

    That way we can tell which items were compared on a multibuy promotion in W's ;)

    Someone more knowledgeable will be along soon, but it could be the ASDA Cream Cleaner Lemon, I think it has to be the gel.

    You only have 8 items i your cleaning/robinsons shop should be 9 alltogether.

    Thank you both:beer:

    Ahh, i thought i read it was 2xRobinsons against 1xcleaner. If attempted again, should i go for one more Robinsons, cleaner or expensive cleaner? Oh scrub that i dont like cleaning anyway, will stick to the poos:p

    Because they're 2 for £5, you didn't pay £3.65 each

    Good evening Elite :hello:

    Hope you've all had a good day shopping at Mr [STRIKE]T [/STRIKE] A :D

    I wasn't going to go today but needed to get my piccy taken to renew my blue badge so off to Mr A I went :cool:

    Celebrate I sort of copied one of your shops for squash and cleaning but my Mr A in St*wm*rket didn't have domestos original, didn't have this :eek: or that :eek: :eek: so had to butcher your list somewhat :D

    All came good in the end ;) Just have to pull the loft ladder down in the morning and sort out my stashes :D

    JJ I haven't been able to locate the wine making book but am home all day tomorrow so will look then :cool:
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    Evening all!

    I may have something interesting or should I say confusing to share...maybe Aau or Best Price or any other fab worker-outers could have a look please?

    Comparison total (compared products only) £49.96 £42.20

    Now apart from this giving a lovely wombled APG of £11.99 :eek::eek: look at the shampoo - isn't this glitching against Waitrose? And there are 4 of them and no cheapo haircare item to compare so do we think it's compared against the Robinsons?

    There was no decent comparison to T£sco btw either...

    I'm not doing the Robinsons at all so I'm not sure but does anyone know what's going on here?

    Good luck lol!!!

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Fantastic spot :j

    The John Freida is 3 for 2 at W's ....so I think it would also compare to the toilet gel and cream cleaner!

    Of course a lot of the items on the 3 for 2 are probably ones we could get for 10p for comparing against T's .... but it's still useful to add to a W's shop.

    Make sure you get the name and number of the CarpetSh*te guy who said the people would move the furniture.

    We had exactly the same problem and when the fitters turned up they were totally unaware of the problem and weren't going to move anything. May be different at your place but apparently the people who do the fitting are contractors and not actually part of carpetsh*te so to speak.

    We got it sorted in the end though by calling back the twonk and putting him on the phone to the fitters :D

    Very good advice Magicowen, many thanks. I might just call into the store and make sure that the fitters have been notified. I also want to make sure that, after the problems, I am going to get a good discount when I buy the same flooring for the hall and bedroom ;)

    Not quite sure where i went wrong on this cleaning shop?!?

    6 cleaning and 2 robinsons = 8 items on "3 for 2" promos that glitch together

    That is not a multiple of 3 and so only 6 items have compared on the glitched "3 for 2" promo. The other 2 have compared at full price. i.e. 1 shower cleaner at W's full price of £2 and 1x5in1 at W's full price of £1.98 (the 2nd 5in1 has compared at the glitchy £0.54 which is why you have 2 comparing at at total of £2.52)

    I think a 9th item (any 1 more of any of your Robinsons or cleaning products) would have meant all items glitched at £0.53/0.54

    I am ok lovey. thanks for asking. I hopefully will have my man back full time next week everything xxxx'd. Have been warned it won't be easy, but I'm ready.

    seriously tho...I just want him home where he belongs. I'll put up with whatever goes along with that. if I need a moan I know where to. come....

    That is just great news, your frame of mind seems to have improved and I am sure it is down to the little break you have had. I hope you have a lot of support when he comes home. Please don't feel like you are ever alone, I know that none of us can probably come and help but sometimes talking and someone just listening can be of great help :A xx
