 CM not done cereals so not very wise to how they work but have you checked you got right size packs, as not all compare. I also add several extra fillers so have about 12 items I think will compare just incase ie the paracetomol, SP Peaches, SP mandarins SP vinegar be careful with the mushy peas as 4p in A's but think it is a lot more in another store can't remember S's or W's was posted yesterday somewhere so I avoid that one now in general.0

            Just one shop today - had to get choccy rice as no ordinary - sounds disgusto! Might try popping in DH's lunch box!:eek:
 Did mixed cleaning and cereals. Bought the Harpic 100% Limescale Remover - Fresh. DH always cleans our loo :A and swears by it. Also got some more Oats So Simple bars and used 50p off moc from the freebies so was paid 18p to take them away :j:j DD2 loves the golden syrup variety. Also bought the Golden Syrup Weetabix to try.
 Is the cheese still working does anyone know. Tried it once 'cos didn't think we liked the Pilgrim's cheese much but have changed our minds. Although it's extra mature it isn't that strong.0

 BL cheese definately working today as I got some compares to S's can also do with the coke but you need separate trigers for each ie 1 x Tin of Amrosia original rice/custard 400g with 1,3,5,7 etc of cokes, then dairylea triangles 16 pack £1 with 3 pilgrims ex mature chedder 350g. I got £7.48 getting the 3 cheeses today, now I am assming you can add in 2's as it is bogof at S's but I not sure if higher amounts work as well0

 i really dont knw what has caused it i know the cereals are all ok as i got an identical shop couple of days ago and that was fine only diff onthis one was the bleach so either the bleach isnt recognised as an item or system has done a mr T (scr3wd me for the fun of it), only 1 or the 8 items actually has to compare but there should have been 9 items that compared plus 4-5 fillers.
 never mind onwards and upwards. think i may open a bag of the galaxy counter and console my unhappyness with chocolate (glitched of course);)0

 Ahh MAGS, you're not being a grump, you're just venting some thoughts to us as you know they might not go down to well at home - people do seem to forget the amount of work that goes into hosting events and I'm sure Beth is (understandably) totally immersed and excited about knowing she's having a baby boy and planning for that. Vent away, we understand (btw when you were describing the baby shower I immediatly thought of the scene from Bridesmaids when they're at the Paris themed bridal-shower - sooo funny :rotfl:)
