    I did once get handed a wad of receipts by a relative to check (several months ago now). I identified one of them that I thought might give an APG back. That particular receipt did give an APG (a small one), and the others didn't, although against a different rival than the one I thought it would. It was some cleaning solutions at a competitor that gave most of the money but some money was lost on some bread bought in the same shopping.

    Got trouted the other day with a £9ish APG on a £12 or so spend so whilst getting some Nivea today thought I best bump up my spend a little - decided on wine as it will always get drunk! Thought I'd try an albali (as the multi buy might not be seen and I know it compares to toscos) and 2 Pinot Grigio for me and it worked!!!!!
    In the 3 for ten do paid £3.33 but it compared A £5.98 to T £4.49!
    I know you were getting this a lot cheaper earlier in the year, but £1.80 for a bottle of red the DH likes - happy days!!!!!

    Isn't it nearer £1.40 when you take the 10% in to account,?

    Ok I misinformed earlier.

    Coke citrus zest compares ok to morries.

    Reason it did not compare for me is bought 2 Innocents in same shop so forced it to compare to Ts as no offer on Innocents in Morries.

    If this works tomorrow do not mix Coke citrus zest and Innocent in same shop.

    Thanks Tinyshoe. I knew the Coke citrus zest didn't compare to T's as they don't sell it, but thought it might work against morries.

    Don't forget the innocent vouchers for A's run out tomorrow

    Cheers Sfsb think I have it now. :o

    Luckily for me I did buy 6 in my first shop and 6 out of my 8 in the other shop compared ok. I only left home at 3.40pm to do my shops before 4pm so did not read your earlier post properly but have missed a few glitches lately as they have not carried on until the next day. Happy I have 3 nice APGs to use now all under £10 just how I like them. :T

    Hiya Tiny. - did u get any bargains today? Xx

    Will do coke tomorrow - I hope still on but need coke anyway! To get it to compare to Ts do I just put normal fillers in? And if I get zero, full fat and diet coke does that count as 3 of my 8?

    I know that - and at least it gave 5p more as a result!!! (Well done; merely commenting how seeing two people's shops, whoever did them, I am always left spellbound why anyone picks the 1pint - unless they live alone and really can't manage 4 pints - even then, I would use a single four pinter in less than a week even if I lived alone, well within its use by date and not gone off, so I still don't really understand.)

    my nana used to buy 4x 1 pints red top and 4 x1 pints blue top every week i and every one used to ask why she says the fresh ness :D she used to say after milks been open 2days its not the same as fresh;) i dnt like milk so dnt realy know what she meant but it made her happy

    red-for her

    blue-for everyone eles
