    *Ahem* Got 17 thanks for this post but erm, it was a legitimate question....please someone?? :o

    Wine is about 4 posts above yours - looks like only the red may be working today. It's 3 for £10 in A's, but comparing as if it were full price of £5.98 per bottle to T's who have it for 3 for £12. Works out about £1.16 per bottle. HTH.

    Chocs now finished.

  • Even so, sometimes you just have to take the hit. I'm guessing the wine also helped make up your 8 items?

    Thanks for advice:
  • I'm just back from M's and I got regular Cheerios for £1.14 so 14p with voucher and 100g container of Nesquik for £1 so free with voucher :)

    Nesquik is 97p at T so paid 3p to take away :)
    Also £1.50 in A and comparison with T so good for one of the other 7 items :)

    Just popped it A's as yesterday I saw this lovely 18ct gold and diamond ring in a local jewellers, he is retiring and has 40% off all stock, so I had to take O/H to show him how lovely it was and what a brilliant Xmas pressie it would make, he didn't seem that interested :( but he did leave me in A's while he went to the 99p store, which "didn't have the thing he wanted" :D

    I got another 6 lots of dirt and 10 more lots of loo roll :)
    Anyone can cuddle but only the Welsh can cwtch :)

    Tosco price for the wine = £24 take off 10% = £21.60 and compare to £35.88 @ ASD* = APG of £14.28. then add on a bit for the other stuff.

    Just looked on MSM and tesco is showing £12 for three wines, but asda is not showing the 3 for £10 offer, does that mean its all over, or is that what its been all along, and thats why it IS comparing very favourably?

    (im sure I saw asda at 3 for 310 earlier in the week, thats what helped me identify which wine it was I think)

    That's what it has been all along. They may have removed the display material instore but still showing online.

    No, A's thinking you paid full price for the wine when you didn't, so about £1.16 per bottle.
