    Yum, chip butty!!!!! What I'd do for that right now.... off to raid the fridge for inspiration.

    I've just raided my fridge...

    ...and found lots of individual florets of broccoli and individual carrots, etc. Wonder why ;)

    Just got a batch of curry on that I let the kids help with.

    Gonna have it with rice n peshwari bans (5p for 2 whoopsied from the freezer;))

    Afternoon everyone being a newbie have I got this right about the Ketchup. I go to Asdas buy 3 bottles for £9 plus a few bits and bobs to make up a apg against tescos I then hopefully will get back an apg for about £8.43 So would it not be easier just to buy the ketchup in tescos and not have the hassle of getting apg from Asdas Or have I got this all wrong

    Probably a stupid question (newbie), but are there any tips on what to buy to make the comparison at A's?
    I always seem to buy about 10-12 items and end up with not enough comparable ones. If I should have an urgent need for vino and red sauce for tea tonight what would you suggest to accompnay it?

    It's also been discussed time and again over the past few hours....perhaps a quick skip back a couple of pages before asking for info?

    thats right you'll get the £8.43 + 10% back

    and yes easier getting in tesco, if you can find any
    but doesn't seem to be much about in tesco
    so for many easier just to pop into asda where they have quite a bit

    Try smart noodles, paracetamol, nurofen, smart tuna, onions, carrots, bananas to start with.

    Yes, that's right. :beer: You need to make sure you have at least 8 different items and one must be a comparable item (I usually aim for 10-12 items in total... just in case!). Most people stick to small inexpensive items like 1 carrot, 1 onion, a few mushrooms, 1 banana, 1 SP noodles, 1 SP Custard powder, 1 SP Batter mix - that sort of thing - so as not to spend too much and also those items tend to compare.

    Technically (!!) it would be easier to go to Tesco, but not everyone has a Tesco nearby or even if they do, it may not stock the ketchup!
