    So buy in asda yes? Do you think diet will work too?
    I

    Yup buy in As

    The web says all 2litre varieties are included in the 2F£2.50 offer so it should work on the others too

    AngelsMadv is going to give it a try shortly on a few different types. I'm thinking about heading out too for the regular and diet

    Either way you should hopefully have it confirmed tomorrow as working on more than one variety

    Want to do APG shop tomorrow including the Muller crunch as posted earlier (thanks aau98113)

    One thing is confusing me though

    I understand that to get the best APG result my shop must compare to M but how do i ensure that my whole shop compares to M and not A or T

    With the Mullers it was easy as you just had to ensure that you had 8 different flavours

    If i make up the shop with 7 other items how do i know these will not compare with T or A instead

    Help please i am confused


    The receipt will compare with the cheapest supermarket to give an apg. Even if you find the receipt is £1 cheaper in T and £2 cheaper in S, if it's £3 cheaper in M that's who the comparison will be made with.

    If your "main" purchase is significantly cheaper in Morrison's and you buy an extra 7 other cheap items which compare in other stores it will still compare, even if everything else is N/A in M's, because they are not N/A in eg T.

    It's only a game

    Just make sure you buy things that don't alter much. Like 10p choccy bar, sweets, 5p peas, 15p stuffing, 7p batter mix. That way the most you may lose is a couple of pence. :A

    OK, eyes going now.

    Did get my PPs back tonight though. £1.10 on an untargetted shop, and £5.06 on a womble! Would appear protein bars are a bit on the expensive side in T's!

    Not sure how to put the picture up, but the main things were 4 Haribo Tangfastics @ £5.60, compared to Sainsbury at £4.00, and 5 SciMix Protein Bars Flapjack Apple /Caramel @ £10.80 with Sainsbury being £6.00!

    My OH does not mind me picking up wombles now!

    I wouldn't worry about it. Just make sure you only buy things that are cheaper in M than A or the same price in both and leave it at that

    If it turns out that S or T is cheaper still for your overall comparable then thats a happy event and you will be better off because you will get a bigger APG than you had planned for.

    If S or T turn out to be more expensive than M or A then it doesn't matter as you will get the APG for the difference between A and M

    Does that make sense?

    What are the rules on wombles? I know you can't use someone's receipt to collect cc points but what about pp and apg?
    Pink is so not my colour :undecided
