I just chanced it this morning after seeing a few reports yesterday - but I bought 8 as to make it worth while? APG only compares up to 10 of each item so I couldn't buy 12 ( even though they only had 8 ) - I'd buy 8 as you get back roughly £8 give or take ! I suppose you could do it with the red wine too? I might give that a shout later !

thanks daisy
I just checked it out and has to be in multiples of 4.AvT so can be combined with poo, facial, TK, deodrant
I may mix the original wih the No 17 if the sel says nix n match.

how many packs of cereal bars would i need?

I was going on the premise of 8 different alpen at £12 plus 1 of the oats at £1.64 would be total of £13.64 and have 9 comparables. This would be compared to 9x39p (£3.51) less 10%

so £13.64 v £3.16 gives APG of £10.48 (a litle over my self imposed £10 max!)

But the mulitibuy didn't kick in so I paid £4 more than planned which I got refunded together with a £16 giftcard so I dont even need to use the APG (not sure if I coould the amount its been written on now)

Cereal glitch or not I'm in profit

One of my shops was 8 packs Alpen and the porridge oats. Paid £1.98 for each Alpen pack but there was a HUUUGE 3 for £2 aisle end display had been left up and the multibuy did not kick in :rotfl:

I got a refund of 48p per pack (£3.84) plus £2 on a giftcard for each different product overcharged i.e. 8x2=£16

Then to top it all off I found a ten pound note in the car park :j:j

Super dooper - really pleased for you

See post above.

I think that oats are not necessary if the cream cleaner is affecting the price.

tyroleandancer wrote: »

But buying the cleaner means you pay more for your cereal the oats make it cheaper.

As tyroleandancer correctly said, you would be better to buy just oats, rather than cream cleaner ...then everything should compare at 39p

Ummm.

NO!!

Just take the hit and learn from it. We all make mistakes. the important thing is to learn from them

I wouldnt have used gavison as a filler anyway. Too expensive :rotfl:

My partner got the gaviscon as he needed it anyway.

I also wasn't going to ring & moan that the glitch didn't work, was just going to ask why after buying 9 comparable items, the systems says I didn't buy enough.

In a word yes!!:D


Course we're bovver'd!:cool: and how's little polly pocket!!?:D

Polly pocket is as cute as can be.. she is laid next to me whilst I'm catching up on here so a very good MSE baby.
I took OH and polly to A this morning - made OH use an APG for me on a separate shop and he kept giggling and pretending he was wombling. He found it very amusing... not sure I'd trust him on his own though - he is "in training".

Thanks, thats the result I was expecting.

For a minute I thought you meant you had got the johnsons to compare at the price of the Ambrosia/coke iyswim

Sorry to confuse.. that would have been superb if it had!

I think they will be sold out soon!
I'm guessing if they do sell out we could get the cream cleaner or toilet gel, and everything should compare at 53p (not as good, but as a 2nd choice)
