    of course I am :rotfl:

    That's because it was!

    You paid £10 for the 3 boxes of chocs and got back £9.92 APG for those chocs.

    If you had gotten small enough fillers (single grape, single mushroom, tiny carrot) then the 30p aPG from your WW meal might have helped put you in profit

    I'm not saying it's not possible to make a profit (it is), I'm just saying that I don't think anyone has posted a profitable result yet
    :T:T
    ref a few posts ago, i think even at 8p we should not moan;)
    im too tired now or i would look for a surrender smiley:)

    Don't surrender now, I just typed out a more detailed analysis :rotfl:

    this is not hukd mr auu;)
    0.16 x ASDA Bananas by Weight (100g)£0.11N/A
    0.15 x ASDA Onions by Weight (100g)£0.12£0.13
    0.12 x ASDA Red Onions by Weight (100g)£0.11£0.10
    1 x Weight Watchers Select Smokey Chipotle Chilli with...£2.98£2.99
    1 x Swizzels Matlow Strawberry Refresher Bar£0.10N/A
    1 x Barratt Flumps Mallow Twists£0.10N/A
    1 x Wham Original Raspberry Flavour Chew Bar (25g)£0.17N/A
    1 x ASDA Chosen by You Giant White Mice Bar (15g)£0.10N/A

    Chocs removed from above so we are just looking at fillers now

    You said the fillers cost you a penny on the APG, yet they actually added 31p to your APG :p

    Total cost of fillers £3.79 (£0.80 paid after WW MOC)
    Comparable fillers £3.21 v £2.90 (which is £3.22 less 10%)
    APG from the fillers = 31p
    Effective cost of the fillers 49p (80p paid - 31p APG)
    Effective cost of the chocs 8p (£10 paid - £9.92 APG)
    Effective cost of the total shop 57p (49p cost of fillers plus 8p cost of chocs)

    My original calculation was £10.81-10.24 which is 57p

    So who is going to be the first to truly make a profit? Buy 1xG&B, 2xFF, 1 x WW meal and then get 5 fillers for less than 22p

    I hope you're right aau :) I'm heading down your way for the weekend :j which are the best A's and T's for taking vouchers/APG's and which stores (if any) should I avoid?
    TIA

    I have yet to have any bother using £9.xx APGs or WW/Malteser MOCs in any of the following Sadas

    G0v4n
    T0rygl£n
    Linw00d
    B34rsden
    M4ryh1ll

    And the following Ts are great at accepting PPs, Sada £5 offs

    M4ryh1ll
    Si1v3rburn
    Ruth£rgl£n

    I have never come across a store round these parts that I would be wary of going into. They are all proving to be as great as each other

    Or maybe it's because I'm so darn likeable :rotfl:

    I go to both of these :D (though less frequently than the others i listed) and have had no real bother.

    There are always going to be grumpy SAs or trouts who scrutinise your MOCs but anytime an SV is called over in these stores they've always approved my MOCs :beer:

    FYI, Ts in sh3ttleston is also great with MOCsand close to p4rkh34d but i dont think it has a scanner :(
