    RN thanks for picking up on this, yes it's long gone on MSM too so it must have ended but it wasn't supposed to until the 12th I think?

    To me this means plenty of DTD opportunities as there are plenty in the offer and many would be free on DTD... worth mentioning too, most if not all of the Persils are cheaper in W's so will be adding a few fillers for PP too if it's a goer!

    I thought it was worth mentioning too because if it's ended then there will be no more 6 for £5.60 DW tabs after tonight...however thay may be much cheaper than that!:D

    Thank you for the list too!

    :T:T:T

    Er yes now I see it is the 12th!!!

    Would like this to be a goer tomorrow.

    But you might want to plan a shop against A or S or M ;)

    Also, think Zippy's DTD calc is a tad over-enthusiastic :cool:

    I dont think so I dare bet you know each item will compare and your thinking is why waste 10p on another flump etc as that puts the average price up by £00.02 ;)

    Sometimes that flump can make the difference but I get where you're coming from on this. Unfortunately, while I think I am occasionally a bit psychic, I can never predict what is or isn't going to come back and compare, when it should, on the APG. My lists are what should compare - as the items are clearly available in M (I've managed to find them!) but whether the APG scanning people pick them up is very haphazard. (Unbelievably last week they managed to pick up some obscure pudding (obscure for me anyway) but missed the 1% milk, having picked up it correctly for a number of weeks, during which they missed the Semi-skimmed variety! We really need the employees of the agency to get their act together more - at least on items that aren't more than 10% more expensive in M!!!)

    The prices are collected on Mons & Weds, so Wednesday's price collection then lasts till the following Sunday (or possibly Monday if you catch it before the update). However, prices from the Wednesday collection, for example, are updated some time on Thursday - so a shop done Wednesday (or, less riskier, I usually shop on Thursday) you should delay entering your receipt till about mid-morning Friday (just my own advice). Of course, not relevant tonight, as it is now already Friday, so we're (us and the APG) using Wednesday's prices collected for M. I visited M on Wednes. - I haven't been back since - so the prices in my post for M are the Wednesday prices.

    I'll restart on updating the list and let you know when it's 'final'. See you later.

    Thanks :D

    I'll make sure I wait until friday to enter any Thursday receipts from now on (unless there's a glitch on a Thursday :D)

    Did you mix and match or buy 2 of the same type? If there were no glitches, I'd go to Sada HQ CS for the true 10% difference.

    The price collectors, who are human, always seem to miss one item randomly in every few when scanning. If you bought the same type, it could be that they scanned the other type instore but not the one you bought - this would also mess up a mix and match. I'm just explaining, not excusing - they should put me on the job instead!

    I should have just put my shop up, you almost have it all now, the only other things I bought were WeightWatchers meals that are on offer at £1.25 in M.

    1 x Fray Bentos Meatballs in Tomato Sauce (380g)£0.89£0.89
    1 x Fray Bentos Meatballs in Gravy (380g)£0.89£0.89

    I'll not be going to Sada HQ on this occasion as I got 10 Mullers for 20p :D I have done in the past on more than one occasion though.

    Er yes now I see it is the 12th!!!

    I'm getting distracted, but I'm giving a useful reply - remember that shopping in T Expresses (where the glitch existed) do not qualify for T PP. Of course, you could be shopping in an Extra (as they might not have changed their SELs from 3 for £10) but remember W is not included in T PP.

    That list is excellent - I might get up early on Saturday and look for those items myself now.
