Funny you should say that because I was just about to post I wonder who'll confirm this first tomorrow:)I may have to set the alarm for an early one on this:)Actually thinking we have a little A's down the road and not sure what time the smaller ones open but would be perfect for the coke. Ok I'll nominate myself to do the coke run at 8am

Very interesting..;);)

4 + 3 + 5 = 12. Looks like for this glitch (and maybe all others??), you are not restricted to 10 of the same items comparing and the others not, i.e normally the first 10 will compare and any over 10 will not?

Does this mean that in principle someone really could clear the shelves in one hit and the items will all "not compare" beautifully to give a fabulous return?

Not suggesting for one moment that anyone should try it, I certainly won't be..:p:p

Perhaps it is because they are different varieties.

Finally, perhaps, on a totally different topic from the glitching that is going on with the shower gels (got enough already I'm afraid, even if being paid for it just no room left), anyone planning/thinking of doing an S v T comparison, you can use the items at the bottom of my Tv A list from earlier this afternoon plus any of the own-branded items in my Sv A list from Sat night/Sun morning. Just check the non-own brands on tosco.com just before you shop in S, if that makes sense (need to make sure the prices haven't changed in T since my posts). Don't overspend by more than £10 on the non-own brands compared to T.

But (assuming you spent at least £20 in Sains in order to get a Brand Match voucher) you can check the details on Sains Brand Match website, the day after your shop. Watch, in amazement, as the Sada side of your S shop turns into a complete blank, of no comparable items at all!!! (At least that's the aim: if any were comparable to A, of course you wouldn't brand match S to T when T is cheaper, but would do A v T if T was cheaper than A for 10% less. Or even less if the glitches continue week by week.)

[If it doesn't come back all non-comp. vs A, please let me know on here and I can remove the item from my S v T - or T v S - depending on which way the prices go each week, and start buying in A unless a different brand becomes better value.]

I've seen two shops on here today with the 1 pint milk in, so I've cracked...!!!..

It always amazes me that people buy the 1 pint milk (even on a comparison shop) when the 4 pint milk (even more so the Sada 1% version vs S, no restrictions, or now vs T in 3s) works out far cheaper. Or, better, even the Cravendale when it is glitching. Perhaps people don't get through as much milk as my household, but I can't understand paying 49p (or even 49p less about 5p in 10% comparison) for 1 pint when four pints straight off the shelf is £1 (or less if you hold a store discount card or buy more carefully).

Semi-rant over (I wasn't really angry at all, just forced to post by the two different shops with it in).

It was a womble not me :cool:

Did well with wombles this weekend enough to not have to spend any money on food for 2 weeks

I'm lucky if I find 1or 2 a month. Think our trolleymen collect them themselves, or nobody throws their receipts away.

99p

Evening mad squad, been to sada and done niv shop, need to go to other sada for mouthwash as there was only 1 on shelf in my local, might get some more niv while I'm there, seems like it would be rude not to. Thanks OP :T
