Just looking into that myself. This from APG website

'You can compare any qualifying basket or trolley of food grocery products you've bought at our stores or online as long as there are at least 8 different items, of which at least 1 should be comparable.' So in theory you can purchase the ketchup and any 7 other items and it should work......however looking at the replies on here I'm guessing this is not the case as some people are saying they receipt doesn't qualify as you do NOT have 8 items.
Doesn't really make sense to me sorry.

i was sure I read it before as "8 items covered by the Asda Price Guarantee Scheme" rather than "8 different items"

There are lots of departments not included such as deli, electrical, homeware, george, kiosk (which includes all sandwiches/single pack crisps/sweets/drinks/etc)

In T it is genuinely as simple as 8 different items (or 7 different items and bag re-use ) but A is more complicated as you have to know the exclusions and even then sometihng might not count that should. That is why people go for 10/11 items just to be sure they have 8 qualifying ones

Anyone else find the red wine to be vile? I thought it was drinkable but DH said he couldn't drink it?

I do agree with your O/H but it is lovely used in cooking.

Think I might just go now, thanks AAU1!

Just back, got my first 3 bottles of rose wine and 3 bottles of tom sauce. Just hope they're still comparing favourably

Now off to catch up.

My APG might help people for ideas of what compares well at A's against T's

Massive thanks to AUU1 & GARDENIA

The dispenser scans at 50p but then 50p is deducted at the bottom of the receipt, under multi buy savings...:)
