    Hi looking at doing a very similar shop myself but I'm unsure how the brand guarantee works with conditional spends. I've got a 6 off 40 and a 3 off 20 so using the example of the Faustino six bottles are £45 can I use my 6 off 40 before the BG kicks in or would I need a higher original total IYSWIM. I will remember fillers to make up the 10 different items.

    I came on here to ask this very same thing. Orchard coupons came this morning just in time for me to use a conditional spend, so I am a happy bunny and feel as if I can re-join the T club again. But I have not done a BM yet. Am I right, please, in thinking that:
    • Coupons count as cash so I don't need to take them into account when I work out my total spend
    • But the BM reduces the total spend before I can wave my conditional spend coupon so I need to make sure that I take that into account when I do my shop? (Just spotted that BQ has confirmed this -- thank you!)

    Am planning to 'buy' a £10 Christmas pud, cranberry sauce, cidre, some Barilla and some dairy, once I get my head round various MOCs which seem to be around.

    Thanks in advance for help with this.

    I bought just 3 and used the floral one as the trigger :D

    Do you think this will work all day today or are price changes around lunch time?


    So you used Floral as trigger
    you bought 3 @ £1.40 = £4.20
    apg shows £1.67 vs £1.33 (ie £5 for 3 @ A, 5 for £4 @ T)
    apg will give you £1.45 plus 10% on your other shopping, making for some cheap deos


    Is that right?

    shu I don't think the right guard is glitching anymore. Its on 3 for £5 which is 1.67 each and that shows as that on your apg. Yesterday with the floral trigger, although costing 3 for £5 it forced the apg to show full price of £2.89 V 1.33 in t's.

    My knee B...... hurts!:(:(

    I feel slightly better though because T. let me have my favourite Faustino wine for about £3.12 a bottle:D

    My brand guarantee results haven't come through on the checking system yet, but I can tell from the discount on my online shop receipt, that it compares very well to A.

    It is comparing at full price before the 25% reduction, so,
    £7-50 x6 =£45 comparing to £30 A. giving a £15 brand match. (Unfortunately it is not comparing to the offer A. 6 for £25 price):)

    There would appear to be some other wines that compare well, but I haven't had a proper look as I am happy with my Faustino!

    Thank you to one of my FB friends for the tip off!:beer::beer:


    Which Faustino was it please Squigs?
