    Can I ask a really silly question?
    I did the APG for the OJ and knew it was almost free, but I don't really understand the others, for example, the Shreddies which is £1 in Asda, would it not be easier to buy the Shreddies in Asda? Or when you get the PP back does it mean they are cheaper than A?
    I've been thinking about this for weeks, but just can't get my head around it!


    Hi Mrsfrugal,

    Let's look at a simple example using the Crunchy Nut Cornflakes 750g. For every £6 you spend on cereals at T till Sunday, you get a 10p off a litre petrol voucher.

    They cost £3.14 in T but £2 in A. Buy 6 packs = £18.84. Edit - typo corrected
    Make your basket up to 8 different items, being sure to only add items which aren't cheaper in A or don't compare. PP will give you back £6.84, meaning you have spent £12 on the cereal. This will generate 3 x 10p petrol coupons.

    If you put say 50 litres in your car, these will save you £15 off your fuel. (Put as much into your car in this transaction as possible, my husband got 80 odd in his the other day). You can generate up to 5 coupons in one shop and spend up to 5 at a time on fuel, which will knock 50p off a litre, but be aware of the £10 limit on PP and split your shopping into different transactions so as not to fall foul of this.

    So, you've spent £12 nett and got 6 large boxes of cereal and saved eg £15 off your petrol. You will also have earned 18 cc points on the above, which are worth up to 76p in rewards, and I like getting the higher throughput on my credit card as we earn rewards on those as well with our bank.

    HTH :A
    Hope is not a strategy.

    Just been banned (by OH) from putting a T online order in for when we are home from our hols. Not allowed to put the credit card number in on an unsecured internet connection. Fair enough, but it means I can't have a delivery waiting for me at home.

    If the only T 10p petrol offer I am interested in is the cereal, do I have to do separate shops to get more than 1 voucher? Ideally I would like to get 5 vouchers by buying 10 boxes of weetabix (2 for £3). Can I put the 10 boxes in one shop, or do I need 5 shops each containing 2 boxes?

    Good morning, Hooray it's Friday. I hope you all have a lovely day and get some of the lovely sunshine.

    Happy shopping.

    Had my last test and it was flipping sore as the drugs did not work to put me under so had to suffer it ( bronchoscopy biopsy on my lung ) but the good news was that the TB i have was not airborne and i could have had it a while but not sure who long so i now have the pills to kill it and i know am not infecting anyone, although i have to keep my distance from the under 4s ie my son for the next 2 weeks and have 2 take 10 pills every morning for 2 months but am on the mend :)
    Thanks for all the support people over this dificult time :A

    Glad to hear things are on the up!

    Morning all :)

    Not sure if it's been mentioned, but Bavaria is down to £2 in Sainsburys. Still works out as free due to PP as £1.50 in T, but need to remember the lower price and make sure to get to the magic £20 limit. :money:

    Also would like to thank the wonderful hippychicky for my beer MOCs as I've been late to the party and my stores were out of mags. :A:A:A:A

    Hi I got Bavaria in Sainsbobs last night and it was still £3 - are you sure this isn't the non-alcohol one? I got 7, paid my 50p and got my £10 brand match (just double-checked the brand match).

    Edit: just seen this was Scotlad - teach me to fully catch up before commenting.

    No you don't, see my post 4023. T will let you get up to 5 in one transaction, but the PP cap of £10 is the limiting factor.
