The wonderful sparkly Elite Christmas thread of love, dreams and glitches ©

TrulyMadly

Ventured out today whoopsie shopping at T, A and S and it was a Waste of petrol. Apart fr on a little bit of reduced salad stuff there was nothing.

I was desperate for a cheap turkey at T's so I could use my £5 off voucher.:)

Who knows maybe better luck tomorrow:)

Sally when was this shopping done please?

The Tesc0 comparison does look better but it's comparing at T's old offer of 1 third off, the price now is back up to full price in T's on T's site and MSM too...

I agree that best to buy in 6's and also the more expensive ones but some investigation is needed as to which M's stock...

May I also posit the theory (you like the word?) that one of the three bought today may be a trigger like the LOB dessert collection:)

Also paid £3.50. Could it be the flavours as limited choice so 2xVanilla Yoghurt and Chocolate Balls, 2xBanana Chocolate Flakes, 2xToffee Hoops, 2xChocolate Digestive, all crunch corners and all compared at 60p? Still gave APG against S of 98p but Banana Chocolate Flakes more expensive in S (65p), others 50p.

And instead of getting the DTD beef, it seems I was in M's ending up with 2 and a half pages of all possible varieties of Mullers stocked in M:

Don't know if this is of use to anyone:

The following were on 'any 8 for £2' (until 6/1/13) and 60p individually:
Banana & Custard 175g
Vanilla 175g
Vanilla & Chocolate Sprinkles 165g
Ltd Ed. 165g
Cherry 175g
Raspberry & Cranberry 175g
Toffee 175g
Rhubarb 175g
Mandarin 175g
Strawberry 175g.

The following were also on '8 for £2' (till 6/1/13), but I didn't note the individual price (probably 60p as above):

Muller Greek Corner:
Honey & Apricot 150g
Black Cherry 150g

Muller Crunch Corner:
Strawberry Shortcake 135g
Vanilla & Chocoballs 135g
Banana Chocolate Flake 135g
Red Cherry 135g
[??Muller Crunch Corner Chocolate Digestive 135g - not sure why I have crossed part of this out in the list I took down - perhaps I later found it was the same as the Vanilla & Chocoballs, or was trying to be more accurate as to which precise type of chocolates were in the Chocolate Digestives.]

Muller Fruit Corner:
Strawberry 150g
Peach & Apricot 150g

Which of the above are avail and A and which feature on MSM (A) and which don't, I haven't looked into.

I also have (19/12/12) the following three Muller Rice 6packs on 2 for £5 each at M:
All low fat, 6x150g:
3x Original 3x Strawberry;
3x Apple 3x Raspberry;
Apple Strudels & Maple Syrup

It looks like, from cursory recall of MSM, (some of) the 6packs may be avail for S at same multibuy - A vs S?

The above lists do not represent what compares/doesn't compare on the APG. They are the varieties I found in M (and it may be that other varieties may not have been stocked in the M I checked but may be avail. in other M's). At least we know what should compare vs M, whether or not other varieties (which may be avail. in other M's) also should. To clarify, my list is based on price label - not whether there was physically any stock there as some of the Mullers had sold out, but can be assumed to be avail. in other M's, therefore are still included in my list (as per the APG's own method).

I don't always look at every single product within a range (in this case, the Muller range) at M, as it would be nearly impossible to do so (even I find that a little long-winded at times). However I do so occasionally, and specifically checked the Mullers in response to the glitches vs M on them on here. It's hopefully a comprehensive list, at least of the Mullers that were on promotion offer in M (which happens to be multibuy offer on all these occasions).

Occasionally I do what I call a 'special project' within my price collecting, namely all (or attempted all) varieties of a particular product at M. Past ones have been the Alberto Balsam shampoos, the Lynx 250ml shower gels and the Options / Cadbury Highlights, and now the Muller yogurts. Then I can, hopefully, save those found at A on MSM into one of my MSM lists for comparable items vs M. If the price of a whole range at M goes on offer, I can look at the MSM list and do a short-cut 'cheat' rather than physically check each product every time.

Hope my list of Mullers assists someone.

Thank you squigs, I too am looking for some free books

I also need to purchase a wall plug in charger for my kindle fire HD. I have seen some cheapish ones but on reading reviews they not too good. May have to splash out and buy a cosher one me thinks, unless someone on here knows better :cool:

Good evening Locarr, have you had a good christmas with the family? Did Santa think that you had been a good boy this year and bring you some nice gifts?

Hi altojack, do you have an Iphone or anyone in the family have one? as you can use this plug with your kindle lead, it's just a USB wall plug, certainly don't pay £17.99 for a kindle version! lots of Gadgets are now using this type of plug so a generic one will be fine!:D

Thanks, yes had a great Xmas with the family, littleones loved it, still believe in Santa;) and thats what makes it Christmas for me!! and of course locarr being a good boy all year santa bought me some great gifts too!:cool:

how was yours!?:D
