    So asda is going to be losing more than you had planned :rotfl:

    Doesn't matter - they probably had a few extra pence from my fillers this afternoon. But that's the thing - I quite like them, a bit more than the other shops, and sometimes don't mind getting the odd extra item from them. I suppose it's all good in the end, even if a bit against money-saving on that.

    Just got back from A after my potential milk glitch shop. Still not my 'big ticket' item but never mind. Methinks that sometimes this is a brilliant marketing thing - as sometimes we have to buy fillers in order to get an APG back. Clearly not with the Fab Fingers thing, where the amount returned far outweighed any spend on low-price fillers. But sometimes, especially with the net prices being 10% off, the thought of the lower effective price causes us to buy more than we would otherwise do. Clearly we have to be savvy on this. Even more savvy. Even savvier than savvy.

    Now I don't mind if this forces us into a competition against one another where we compete in a race for the top where we are all becoming better at it and avoiding past mistakes of overspends.

    Last shop was filled with a few items of use anyway and the prices were quite low in the first place, certainly a lot less than what you see many people pay. Paid for mainly with the £10 shopping card they sent to me after a previous APG failure, and the rest (93p) with one of the gift cards bought in Nov that increased in value by £6 overnight.

    I like savvier than savvy:):)


    Thanks for all your cheese advice SB. I now have a shelf full in the fridge of varying types:)

    Sorry not caught up on todays posts yet but just had my pp back on last nights shopping. Stupid me, really should remember not to put whoopsies in with shop but all turned out ok in the end.
    Before I shopped last night I checked mums fav yogurts in mys and they showed as not stocked in sada so were safe to include in my shop (wanted to use dairy vouchers up.


    2 x DANONE OYKOS STRAWBERRY YOGURT 4X110G 4.38 3.00 4.38 N/A

    3 x DANONE OYKOS PEACH YOGURT 4X110G 6.57 4.50 6.57
    Tosco/sada/sainsbobs/morries

    Strange as mys said not stocked in sada. But definately safe to add to
    T v A shop and saved my pp from a negative result. Obviously would have been better if not included whoopsies in my shop but given then generousity of the scanning of finest vouchers last night I have not really lost anything.
    Must do better next time! lol

    Off to catch up but just got mail saying galaxy tab has been dispatched by Tosco so will be getting my £50 cashback as invoice will be 30/12/12

    :o Not sure what triggers are?

    Sauce is not on a multibuy according to sada site but it is showing on my msm, is there a reason it would show on mine but not yours

    So let me check I understand this, if something is not showing on MSM for anyone, it does not compare and does not count toward your 8 items, if it shows for some people it does compare and count?

    I thought you only needed 1 item to compare to count toward 8 items? Am I misreading that

    little bit off subject but just to let you know wewere a heinz house hold untill i swoped to tesco value omg theres no diffrence :eek: its 30p a bottle and its a squeeze one , in my house i no longer fill the heinz bottle its that good:o

    Brilliant you are a star:T

    Patty, again - you must be making a career out of this wombling. Good luck with the batteries - fantastic price.

    But, if I may, I'll turn down the offer of Milk Tray 400g for £3.50 minus 10%. Not tempted now after the 75p each with the MT/Vinnies combo. earlier. (Unless, knowing you, I bet there's a couple of multibuy triggers not shown on the receipt, where the MT in A was actually £3.33... recurring.)

    Hang on, it's a wombled receipt. But that's probably what they should have bought.
