Apologies if this has been posted, just back from Morrisons and all their school uniform stuff was reduced to 28p each. Trousers, skirts, jumpers, tops, the lot. HTH

Cheers for this, just kitted my daughter out for next year

I have another theory and it's a lot simpler....;)

if you mistakenly buy 4 glitchy items' it will compare to the trigger and you will pay full price for the trigger!:D

if you mistakenly buy 5 glitchy items' it will compare to the trigger and you will pay full price for the trigger and the highest priced item.:eek:
this is on 3 for 2s:D

however if you remember Locarr's mantra all your items will compare to your trigger!!!;)

So why dont we all buy 3 glitch items and the trigger and get one extra "expensive" item per shop then? Especially as the trigger item only costs 48p and you could be getting an extra bag of say dog food at £10 per shop.
3 shops a day and you are an extra 3 bags of dog food in profit.

Robinson messed my shopping lol, still showing on MSM, nevermind

Cleaning, Robinson, Johnson and cereal vs Sainsbob is a go go go

Did you get the NAS Robinsons as the normal one is n/a on MSM

Not too bad for my first shop, although I did actually buy one too many glitchy items. Got the cereals sorted, but then I went for the CIF cleaner too - which resulted in my Frosties not glitching.

Still, first time - and I'm learning.

Quite a few haircare products are still showing as 3 for 2 at Tesco on MSM; these might be the best candidates for any testing of that glitch:

Some skincare like the Perfectawash products are now showing as N/A for Tesco! :eek:

They're 3 for 2 at Sainsbury's though so 1 x Witch Blemish Stick (10g) and 2 x Clearasil PerfectaWash Auto Face Wash Dispenser + Refill and fillers could be interesting to try!
http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/#/sainsburys/bundle/605228_37408.html?Sort=Price

Just checked T's site, and some of the updated offers are on there. Skincare goes on 342 from tomorrow 18th until 15th October. Link below

http://www.tesco.com/groceries/product/search/default.aspx?searchBox=Clearasil%20PerfectaWash

If you click on the 342 banner in red it brings up over 200 items.

Might be fun :T:D

seriously, would be interested to see some of those receipts, if someone bought 3 then by my theory the 2 cokes would glitch and the rice would be full price.

Sorry, can't post any examples as all mine have worked!

I think the custard and rice pudding differences for uneven coke shops were reported by FK.

Your Cif has glitched it's at 32p but I can only count 7 "glitchable items" so you are 1 over and it has applied it to the frosties.

edit that - just reread your post & you said yourself it was because of the 7 items.

I just want to say a big thank you for all the comments I've had.
I still feel a bit teary, i've cried reading all of them, so much so that I'll have to get changed
Still feeling very angry and fed up with everything, don't want to be alone but also don't want to be around anyone.
I feel that everyone in the family has moved on, most expect me to be back to some sort of normality
that because I look strong on the outside no one can see that I'm falling apart inside
They expect me just to get on with things but a major part of my life is missing so how can I do that!!!
I feel

I feel like I'm skipping far too much at the moment and missing far too many important posts like this :(So big hugs to you SD xxxx

Or maybe some people just get a little bit confused when doing their shop?

Think people need to chill out a bit insulting people when they mess their shop up.

Maybe Patty was a bit forceful in the way she put it, but she does have a point ! The rule of 3 is stated on just about every page and, even as a beginner (only been at it since the weekend) I've got that firmly into my head. It is confusing and its easy to make a mistake but a lot of people seem to be making the same mistakes over and over again.

I've been very lucky and the 7 shops I've done have all worked perfectly - but I have had some very funny looks as I walk around the store repeatedly counting how many different items I have in total and sorting everything that glitches out into little groups of 3 in my trolly. People think I'm a dotty old bird talking to myself.
