    I think that I may have found the perfect way to keep OH and DD out of my hair while I am trying to concentrate on what I am buying.

    I have typed up a list of filler items we use that I can add to a glitch shop. Theory is that I can give them the list and ask them to get me any 10 items per shop leaving me in peace whilst they dash around. Just need to do it for T's, S's and W's
    Will try it out at the weekend.

    I have taken inspiration from Miss Laids Top 20 filler items post. Link at the start of the thread. Thank you Miss Laid.

    Yes thanks I realised that when I got home , please see my earlier post where I was kicking myself.
    I posted my results as I thought it would help others like Looby who had made a similar mistake. I understand that the cheese compared as it is bogof in sainsbobs as locarr pointed out. Just wanted to help others going through the same agony as me.
    To be honest I am so chuffed that it compared at all. All in all I have done well and I consider this part of my elite apprenticeship.
    Still learning myself. picked up wrong brosia on way to work :eek:
    luckily I pick up 2 different types:)
    still trying to work cheese out as we get through in my house. Hoping it's still working when I get up tomorrow. :D

    nikkilala - Just wanted to say I think everyone knows you started the other thread for all the right reasons. You were just trying to keep the newbies and the regulars happy, and had only good intentions.

    Tiger - hope it's going well. You are amazing, contractions 2 mins apart, and still you find time to let us know that your latest shop had worked... hardcore elite!!

    thanks, that means, get 1 ambrosia and any amount of cokes. i think

    If you buy in odd quantities of everything glitching under the same bogof umbrella it appears to compare the product that would give you the least amount back at full price. Seen here with the Ambrosia. Wackynut it did work for you on the coke but you lost 44p on your APG :Axx

    So if you're buying Ambrosia/Coke/Huggies pure baby wipes 64pk, make sure the total number of these products is even for the best return :)

    Its 97p in sainsbobs :D bogof
    So if you buy 1 you lose 47p on your apg if 2 you'll gain 3p

    Not strictly true. You can buy one tin of Ambrosia and you won't lose the money off your APG as long as you follow the rule above :)
