    Got results back from shop. Eek, needed one more different product to make it to 8 so actually didn't end up comparing. Weird thing is whilst I was there, in my mind I kept thinking okay 8 different products needed at least, and I must have counted the 3 Maltesers as part of the 8, whereas they'd only count as one as they're the same product. Doh! -Face palm- :o oh wells, I'm glad it was only a small £11'ish shop. Mistake to be learnt for next time, that is if ASDA don't pull the plug soon.

    Know how you feel Anika, was going to do shop later on but keep thinking what if it doesn't work? at over £5 a box for weetabix could be expensive and after reading other posts am now not sure if 5 cereal would count if they are all the same or would i have to choose a selection of different ones to get my 10 different items???

    Hi Jacq42 You need to get the rice pudding + 2 weetabix plus fillers make sure do some extra above 8 you need in case some don't compare;). If you wanted to do more cereals/cleaning you would do rice + 2,or +5, or +8 so all your items that are glitching should divide by 3 including the rice;) HTH
