Evening everyone. Excited by the innocent - those little A coupon books had a 75p one off 900ml. That makes it 24p each by recogning. - Thnak you.

I knew already about the Innocent juice ones and had one of them on my list as a reserve item but didn't actually use it. Just a warning that M has now gone back up to full price on these, so won't work any longer (unless there's some glitch where people can tell me they do).

I did have however the Jucee Orange Squash NAS 3L on my shop - only needed, and only bought, one - on A multibuy, which I declined, but paid £2.75 in a £40 shop and it compared back to the M price of £1.37 plus 10% off! This offer is still on till 31/12, but these things can appear one week and not the next on the APG. The Summer Fruits Squash NAS 3L version also in the M offer.

Final answer from me of the night, as I must retire for the night soon. While I can't predict how MSM (powering the APG) will behave, I suspect the Vaseline make up bag will go to 2 for £8 since the multibuy is showing on MSM. You could try 3x Vaseline Retro Lip and 1x Vaseline Mini Make up. It's the Retro Lip that isn't showing with the multibuy.

But probably best to stick to 1 of each in any one shop, so you don't generate 'too big' an APG on this thing. One of each in two separate shops (with 6 fillers in each of the two shops) is probably better than 3x Lip and 1xMake up, since the pricing is £3.66 on the Make up Bags and £4 on the Lip (3.66+4.00) x2, rather than 4.00 x3 and one 3.66.

Of course - it's now 25 past 12 - MSM may update overnight so check on MSM at around 7 or 8am to see if it's likely it'll still work.

Morning. I slept - very well - and then woke up, unusually, at 4am and feel as fit as a fiddle and better than ever. May as well add my afterthought, which I thought of soon after I shut the computer down at half 12.

If you've got a £5 off a £40 to use and maybe struggling to make up the £40, it may be better to buy 1x Vaseline Mini Make Up Bag and 5x Vaseline Retro Lip. (Only 1 make up bag - as that knows the multibuy - and need odd number of Retro Lips.)

That should give £24 (3 x £8) spend towards the £40, and compare £6 vs £3.66 on the bag and £30 vs £20 on the Retro Lips. Total on the 2 different items of £36 vs £23.66 = £14.71. But watch the £15 scrutiny limit. In fact, it's probably not going to work, as you'd need 6 fillers that don't give back more than 29p and some non-grocery stuff such as George clothes to make up the £40. You couldn't put your prepared grocery list of £16 (the rest of your £40, i.e. £40 less £24 on the 3x gift multibuy) with APG vs T without going way over.

Seems it's then 1x Vaseline bag and 3x Retro Lips. £16 towards the £40 and £24 (on A prices) of groceries not 10% cheaper than T.

Someone's going to ask what the APG on 1 bag + 3 lips is, before I get time to come back on here. To pre-empt the pre-emptable, it's £24 vs £15.66. Equals £9.91 (if my pressing on the calculator is right). As for what this works out at compared to what you paid, you'll need to work this out yourself or someone else to post the answer before I get round to working it out much later. Sorry, I didn't get time to prepare an S v T shop last night and we are desperate for some potatoes so I need to get that sorted.

Edit: Change to "S v T where all the items are (hopefully) NA at A".
