    Well in April I got over £100 and in May just over £200 (not counting those £5 conditional spends coupons) so I feel a bit down on my apgs.

    Not being greedy though:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Last night was lovely 25°C at home and now dull in Sheffield - it's been a rubbish month -
    "June is set to follow April as one of the wettest months on record in the UK, new Met Office figures show, confirming that the spring and early summer period of 2012 has been one of the most miserable ever." - Independent:(
    Enjoy the Tennis - much better than being a lightning conductor!

    INTERSTING WOMBLE :D (minor :rotfl: GLITCH)

    Only just over £30 ..... from Sat 22nd June

    BUT came back as £9.18 :j :j :rotfl:

    Apparently £8.11 cheaper at MORRISIONS

    13 items / 9 different compared - A 18.81 / M 10.70

    The Glitch ?

    CARLING (12 x 440ml) JUST 62p in M :rotfl:

    Appears to be part of some HEINZ MULTIBUY ??????????????

    Several items with prices HIGHLIGHTED IN RED for M

    ... including the CARLING

    Has M got a Heinz Multibuy running - something like 2 for £1.25 or 4 for £2.50 or 8 for £5

    Only it appears that's what's on offer .....

    ... AND ASDA does/did have a similar "KIDS PASTA 5 for £3" which included Heinz products

    1 x Heinz Low Fat Macaroni Cheese (200g) £0.74 £0.62
    3 x Heinz Spaghetti Bolognese (200g) £1.80 £1.89
    1 x Heinz Ravioli in Tomato Sauce (200g) £0.75 £0.62
    2 x Heinz Mini Meals Chicken & Sweetcorn Pasta Spirals (200g) £1.28 £1.25

    1 x Carling (12x440ml) £10.00 £0.62

    RED TOTALS = £5 for the 8 items

    Don't know if it's worth trying to reproduce to replicate the Saturday shop

    Perhaps knowing the Morrisons offer might be a start:D

    Good Morning CW, Jeferey and everyone else. It's chucking it down here:(:(

    I still might go for a walk on the beach later :cool: CW you haven't sent me any wombling results lately, does that mean June wasn't very good:( I'm tempted to try the carling, but Morrisons change their offers on a Sunday so it could have ended, I have noticed before that MS sometimes get mixed up with multi buys and give silly amounts for something, but that was against a waitrose shop.

    I checked Morrisons and there is indeed an offer

    75p each but 4 for £2.50 on HEINZ MINI MEALS (According to a large SEL - UNTIL 9TH SEPTEMBER)

    These are small 200g tins (half the size of "normal" standard ones like baked beans etc.)

    These are also on offer in Asda - 68p each but 5 for £3

    As for the CARLING - my Morrisons ONLY had the 10 x 440ml can FRIDGE PACK at £8

    The 12 x 440ml pack is indeed £10 at Asda

    (The 12 size is also APGable at T since only £8 there and 3 for £22 until 1st July- so a potential price of JUST £6.60 each - 55p PER CAN :beer:) AND this did compare against T on the same receipt at £7.50 on 22/6

    Worth a go ????????????? Hmmmmm !

    Oh and be carefull Blue :D

    Oh don’t you ? Oh, don’t you ?
    Pitter-patter raindrops,

    I’m wet through,
