Thread was locked at their final say. One mod thanked everyone for positive comments... Inferring mine were negstive yet they said all feedback was welcome. I was quitepleasant too. Basically decision was made and altho asked for opinion didnt seem to want to heat it. No counter argyment judt said I was negative :cool::cool:

ah.. thats them alright - they take good feedback & dump the bad one or any anti-opinionated members - that reminds me why I am hardly there. And the 3 vordemorts here will definately banned instantly if they were pts members & posts all the negative/argumentative posts - PTS does not like that kind of posts they pride themselves as goody goody 2 shoes.;) Me I like to read banters it keeps the thread alive:o

I agree and, at the risk of a repeat question (proper threaded mode would help avoid repeats), why can the "live" spreadsheet not be in downloadable form (.xls) from Google so that we can manipulate ourselves ? There is a "live" one, and a lagging downloadable one. Tell me I'm an idiot if you have too !:)

Why can you not just copy and paste it then manipulate it? lol

bit sad about the amores losing their dtd tomorrow, but i'm going to try some of the other muller varieties instead. Pls can someone tell me whether the 4 for £2 is mix and match or can i get 3 of each (i.e. 3 lights/3 corners etc) i've bought 3 amores and 3 rices together no probs.

tia!

I don't believe it does. If that was the site that was started in thread 3 or 4 they got people to manually update the database

There were two.. One that had people thumbs up/thumd down items that didnt work too well

But the other had every item imaginable there at your fingertips but no thumbs up bit

See the quote from the designer:

I make out an online shop for both of them, and then print it off.

Good luck checking over 10,000 items that way

Inferring their website checks all. Also the website has picked up on things we dont have.. so i doubt it is manually updating.

Many thanks x

Going by the SS, I assume it's http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/tesco-price-comparison/Speciality_Breads/Tesco_Ciabatta_Bread.html and http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/asda-compare-prices/Speciality_Breads/ASDA_Ciabatta_Loaf_Large.html but you're the only person who's mentioned it.....

Exactly most of the users dont care about low value dtds items.... anything that doesnt make it more than 50% isnt worth worrying about... As its not that big of a discount. I dont have time to trawl through 1000 lines of deals which the green/red thing helped but as more deals are found the spreadsheet got unwieldy.

Speak for yourself!
I for one did always look at everything on all the lists, my Tesco being one of the ones which makes its own rules up each time we go in. So i always make sure i have at least half a dozen things listed on my receipts cos if not, I'm always told that i cant use the voucher if i only bought one thing to generate the it, where as if there's a few things listed they don't look so closely!

Open Excel (if you don't have it then download a 2 month free trial from microsoft)

open spreadsheet

click anywhere on spreadsheet

press ctrl & a

then ctrl & c

go to excel

click on top cell in excel

press ctrl & v

all the data will copy over

hit ctrl & a again

go to top right corner and click on sort and filter

set it to sort by whichever column you want

Happy days lol
