    Anyone else have a ridiculous amount of really large Mosquitos where they live? East London is over run! Went for a little walk to stretch my legs and I was beset by the giant gits :( ended up cutting my walk short and storming home.

    I hate flying wotsit thingies

    Don't get Mosquitos where I live :T

    Wow a glitch on fruit at last. Please tell us more.
    tia :)

    The simply snacks are 5 for $1.50. If you buy the melon and grape which does not show on the apg and acts as a trigger together with two bags of grapes and two bags of pineapple. The apples and pineapple will compare to T at 50p each or 3 for $1. So apg will see that you paid $2 in A for the two bags of grapes and two bags of pineapple and compare to T at $1.50 (3 bags at $1 and 1 bag at 50p). Apg back of 65p on a $1.50 spend making each bag 17p. Sorry I haven't brought any over the easter holidays so can't post any results. But been buying these for months and works each time

    Hi, I have a £5 off £40 for Ts, could I do a Whiskas shop and fill up with coke ?
    TIA
    I'd say yes because A5DA don't sell 24s, hence why it shows n/a on PP. Remember you need 10 different items though.

    you've made me wonder now if you can feed dogs cat food :rotfl:my dogs have dried food so if you could give them whiskas it would be a little treat :o:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Dogs can eat cat food - it tends to have more meat in it as well as Vit A, Taurine etc. Dogs are omnivores - which basically means they'll eat anything. Cheese, Ice Cream or anything you're eating.

    Cats being carnivores need more meat that they won't get in dog food so need more their own diet - fussy blighter's! They need certain vits in high quantities - Vit A etc.

    Cat food tends to be more expensive:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: It won't hurt a dog once in a while to partake of cat food BUT not all the time obviously.

    NEWS JUST IN...


    ....Nivea sales sky rocket.

    [...]

    No they don't;) - there's plenty of muggles just doing their normal shops and totally oblivious... Don't forget, I suspect we are fewer than 0.0001% of A's total transactions.

    Another shockingly bad shop - quite how they can spend over £200:eek::eek::eek::eek:, in cash no less:rotfl:...

    It was closest vs T, but way more expensive elsewhere. Roughly half their shopping was comparable to Ts, so... that was about one hundred quid. If it were done well, that would mean £10 back on 10% all things being equal and prices being roughly the same.

    Their items included these appalling purchases:

    1 x John West Tuna Chunks in Spring Water (4x160g)£5.00:eek:£6.00
    1 x Centrum Performance (30)£5.98£7.69:eek:
    1 x Nescafe Original Coffee Granules (300g)£4.00£5.00 (actually this one is not too bad, but loses out vs £5)
    1 x Lynx Deodorant Body Spray - Africa (150ml)£3.19:eek:£3.19:eek:

    Five quid carpet cleaner anyone?:eek::eek: That went N/A against T, but Sainsbobs even more expensive at £7!:eek:_pale__pale__pale_

    After all that, they managed to reduce the APG amount from £10 to under £1.50:eek::eek::(. Never mind- that's the person that is paying for all our shopping:D:T.

    You could - if, as mentioned already, you put in enough different items into your shopping.

    My only doubt is that, assuming you get £7 of Whiskas and fill the other £33 with Coke, at about 5 packs of Coke, that's £1 more expensive at £6 each than T's offer price of some while ago now of £5 each. So, compared to that, you're paying them £1 more on each multipack of coke, making the '£5 off' totally worthless. However, ignore me here though. Just bear in mind the £6 'offer' price is an inflated price compared to the £5 offer price of a year or two ago.

    (Still ignoring me - besides, if ...zzzz...zzzz....(yawn)....you had got £5 coke at full price the day before and did an online order with £16 off, then magically paying half price, that would have been equivalent to half the £5 price or less. Why not just get the £7 Whiskas (and fillers) at approximately free and pay them nothing? Otherwise, the £5 off £40 is just getting you to buy loads of Coke, that you are paying them for, just in order to spend £40 that you wouldn't otherwise do. I'd just give them £7 and get £7 back - but then I am a meanie:j. Especially when it comes to T:D.)
