    Dear Logie,

    Take a deep breath. Stay calm. Focus on the positive and keep your hands busy.

    My friend has gone through this and the prognosis can be excellent.

    You need a mantra:)

    I will be fine. I will be fine. I will be fine:)
    Sending you all my love:)

    A big thanks to everyone who has posted their finds! :j

    I bought a selection of the following Simple stuff (to go in my sister's xmas hamper) over several shops this evening, fillers removed:

    A v S

    1 x Simple Kind to Skin Vital Vitamin Day Cream (50ml) £4.95 £2.00
    1 x Simple Kind to Skin Vital Vitamin Night Cream (50m... £4.95 £2.00
    1 x Simple Kind to Eyes Nourishing Eye Make Up Remover... £3.46 £2.00
    1 x Simple Kind to Skin Sun Kissed Moisture Cream (50m... £5.00 £2.00
    1 x Simple Regeneration Age Resisting Cleansing Wipes ... £3.00 £2.00
    (remember to buy in twos!)

    Sorry to quote my own post, but I am rubbish at maths :o I wanted to ask, can I buy 6 of the simple things and still keep under the £15 APG?
    I bought 4 items on each shop with other stuff and my brain is muddled trying to work out what the return would be on 6? :o
    Any help would be much appreciated! And sorry for being so dim on the maths front! :rotfl:

    Edit:

    I've had a go...
    4 x £4.95 (creams) = £19.80
    2 x £3 (wipes = £6
    Total: £25.80

    Sainsbob price = £12 (3 lots of 2 for £4)

    So £25.80 - £12 = £13.80 plus 10% (£1.38) = APG £15.18

    OR

    3 x £4.95 creams
    3 x £3 wipes
    Total: £23.85

    Sainsbob price = £12

    So £23.85 - £12 = £11.85 plus 10% (£1.18) = £13.03 APG

    Phew I hope that's right?? Brain hurts now lol!! :rofl:

    I tried this because Rhett passed on some interesting info about someone doing 4 seperate shampoo shops with all the old items.
    So we checked and on msm the shampoo was showing 3 for 2 in sainsbobs, but an hour later that was removed and was showing on against tosco.
    I just thought as the multi-buy doesn't show yet , msm were obviously updating their system. So if there is a glitch in there somewhere it may happen tomorrow.
    Maybe worth a go if someone has a spare wombled apg.
