    Yay, well done, KADISON! And it looks like the cheapest item may be the Clean and Clear Deep Cleansing Lotion - Sensitive, which is £2.85 so will make items compare at £1.90 :T

    Edit: haha, just realised I bought this stuff for the Tesco poo glitch (at 10p each!) - my Asda are going to think I'm really spotty :D:D

    Lol! I am SOOOOOO stocking up on those pore strips, I love peeling them off and seeing all the gunk that's no longer clogging up my skin :eek: :D

    EDIT: Second best trigger is the blackhead clearing scrub, though now I'm wondering if any of the other 3 for 2s would glitch with this one.........

    Lots of people answered with lots of useful comments but I didn't see anyone address this point from your post:

    shampoo did not work for me, I think because asda are doing mutibuy savings.

    The price you pay in A has no impact on whether or not an item compares at a glitched price in another supermarket.

    You may pay less in A than you would if there was no multibuy offer in A but the APG you get would also be less. The final nett value of your shopping after APG would be identical whether or not there was a mulitiby offer in A

    Similarly all the people who panicked when Ambrosia went up 2p in A had no reason to panic. It has absolutely no impact to the final price after APG

    Clean and Clear Exfoliating Daily Wash is also £2.85, so people could get this if they prefer (instead of the cleansing lotion). Both will make items compare at £1.90.

    You're right, it's not :p Some things just don't glitch in the same group. Confirmed shops are cereal, cleaning, poo, johnsons, amongst others. Any more 3 for 2 offers need to be tested... care to take one for the team? :p:p

    iams, kiwi shoe polish and the baby carrots/sugar snaps 3 for 2s all work with ambrosia

    Dental definitely doesn't

    Oh yeah, forgot about the iams. I don't take notice of ones I don't buy. Dental was the known exception in the OP. But fair point, wouldn't want my post taken out of context and confusing people :eek:
