    Haven't been around as my neck was playing up Sunday and yesterday :( Still having problems today so DS3 drove me to Mr A where I can confirm Cafe Noir still working :D I know it only compares at £2 in MrS but not having one near me I'm happy at the chance of getting it in now :D
    I'm waiting for apg :Ds I did a shop with the MrA Flu Max All-In-One Chesty cough & Cold Tablets sel was £2 so I just have to wait now ....................................................... tick tock :cool:

    I've got loads of pages to catch up on :o I did see mention of coke cola comparing somewhere ? Can I ask please where this compares to and how many do I need to get please?

    Maybe I need to do the Mr Locarr method of counting for glitched items ? :cool: :D

    oh, yes I should get Davemorton to copyright!!;)

    the locarr mantra!!:D
    Remember the Locarr mantra;)

    3 for 2 = Multiples of 3

    bogof = Multiples of 2

    plus 2 over the 8 never lets you down!!:cool:

    i think what cjj is saying is

    8 x 1.80 = £14.40 ( they paid £12)

    apg compares £14.40 - £12 (4 for £6 @ t) = £2.40 apg plus 10% = £3.60

    so paid £8.40 for 8 bottles

    Paid £12 in A, expecting a £4.80 apg. Compared £14 to £8 as did not see the multibuy and give an apg of £6.80 instead.. :D
