    I nabbed 6 when it was that price, I got a BM which told me I had saved £62 :) I got these today as I had £16 in wombles plus a £5 off £40 spend :) So I went thru MSM and decided what was best to give me an APG :)

    The dove gift sets are £2 in Morries

    http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/#/Shopping/FindProducts.aspx?Query=Dove Silk Indulgence Pampering Set


    How small are the finest gammons people are getting for £5 ?

    The smallest I could find was £9 and that wasn't very big and yes it was half price

    This is the post I wanted to quote. It seems these are the Dove Silk version rather than the Pink ones. I'm now aware that both versions have a woman with her arms in the air, however the pink version have them straight up in the air whilst the silk version she is lying back in a bath.

    I've checked in M tonight and found the Silk gift sets are £4 each or any 2 for £6 'whilst stocks last'. However, this may be a short weekend flash offer (even at the £3 each equivalent of the multibuy) whilst the APG prices are taken on a Wednesday. I don't have the pricing from Wednesday and, if the £2 is a glitch in M which is being charged at the till whilst the price labelling says something else then the APG collects from the price labels I understand.

    When I saw the Dove multibuy in M (which appears to be on the Silk) I thought a possibility might be to buy 2x Dove Silk with 1 other item or a trigger - but I'm getting it confused with the 3 for £10 chocs offer, so unfortunately doesn't seem you can compare with a multibuy offer (buy 2 for...) of a competitor as you're then buying two of the same Dove Silk and it appears to recognise the A multibuy on that. If I have confused anyone...

    As of now the following appears to be the case:

    The unmentionable Ice Trio is still not on MSM (whether I'm logged in or out) - this seems to have gone on for several days now - how much longer till it is finally picked up? (Shades of Vinnies tins etc.)

    The Vaseline mini make up bag is now showing as OOS at T and OOS at A. Pricing for A is still £6 or any 2 for £8, hence the need (at least previously*) to buy either a triggering item that doesn't appear on MSM (the Ice Dive Trio) or a item that doesn't come up with the multibuy on MSM (the Dove Fresh Pink Pampering Set) with it.

    *It's now showing OOS at the competitor (T) so perhaps it doesn't work anymore????

    The Dove Silk Indulgence Pampering Set is showing with the A multibuy and now showing as OOS in A when I'm logged in, vs T at £4 in stock. When I log out, the Dove Silk... becomes avail. in A, at £5.00 or any 2 for £8.00, vs T £4 and now T OOS!!!

    As for the Dove Pink, this is now showing £6 A vs £4 T (so no A multibuy showing) but OOS for both A & T when I'm logged out. When I log back in, T becomes back in stock. (It's always been showing for me as A OOS.)

    Make of the above what you will.

    [As for possibly comparing the Silk together with a trigger at A vs M, the comparison vs M can sometimes be a bit random due to the way prices for M are collected. If anyone who bought the Silk (in error?) vs T can enter their receipt TC back into the APG site and flip over to the M comp. and let us know whether it returned with a price for the Silk at M or returned M N/A. This will let us know whether worth trying the Silk vs M. The Ice Trio doesn't appear on MSM so looks like that could be put with the Silk if M compares... but M's price for 1 appears to be £4, so no better than 1 Dove Pink vs T together with an Ice Trio.

    If the Silk does compare to M, I may later on post a list of M items that, it might be suggested, might be best put into the same basket as it.
