OK apologies in advance for this massive list. I did mean to PM it to our resident pricing expert but messages are limited on the number of characters you can send and I didnt want to split it into massive chunks.
Anyway it will give you some ideas what you might buy for a Sada v M shop, its from last week so you just need to watch for price changes.
Ive got a tosco rec pile as well, not sure wether to do a word document as well
toosco v sada
tosco v Sainsburys?

Sausages in a bag (Maggi style) are in and look surprisingly nice. Will see how they are later.
Am deciding whether to go whoopsie shopping....
Printed out all my SSM mocs only to find my back ink has expiredI never replace when it says, tend to give it a few shakes instead (oo-er missus
)

I'm a body double for Claudia Schiffer and i wont get out of bed for less than [STRIKE]£10k per day[/STRIKE] a 1p find0 -
And to anyone whose desk is a festering fetid mass of jumbled receipts get it sorted out, now!
Just done mine,
entered all the details from my own shopping onto my daily expenses chart, 5 days behind, very slack
entered todays Tosco receipts into the TPP machine (Thursdays recs came back very late on Friday night so much for 24 hours or sooner)
Checked the 3 recs from Thursday and all 3 produced a little TPP :T
Checked all of the Sada recs. OK I didnt print off the 5p one as it would have cost more in print ink than it would have saved but I did print off 2 other tiny ones which gave me about £1 :T Then I found one form the end of Janaury and it was one I'd forgotten to print off and it gave me over £4 APG. So At least now I have some APGs to use in Sada if I could think of anything I need other than fudge bars
I can now see the tea stains on my desk again!“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove. Every day will allow you, --will invite you to add something to the pleasure of others, --or to diminish something of their pains.”0 -

Excellent idea, will go and have a look see what there is listed“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove. Every day will allow you, --will invite you to add something to the pleasure of others, --or to diminish something of their pains.”0 -

Same problem here, big bag of washing up liquid at the bottom of the stairs for over a week and now a bag of deodarants as well, all loitering at the bottom of the stairs waiting someone going upstairs and then me to organise
In theory there should be a bit of space as I took a big basket up of assorted cleaners, shampoos and shower gels to eldest daughter last weekend but somehow I dont think there will be ......“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove.

I think that they will compare if bought in tosco because they are on asda.com at £1
(6x415g)- £1.00

Well, I have sent DH to get 5x packs of beans and some fillers. That will be a max value PP though so I hope it will be OK (if it even works that is). It's a bit of a risk but worth a try. I will report back when I get the PP back (though that could be days judging by recent experiences). I wonder how long Sada will have them on sada.com at £1 for.
EDIT- just seen Pattylabelle's comment above. Managed to get DH on his mobile and have aborted the mission. Thank you so much Pattylabelle for alerting us xxx
Thank you to everyone whose advice has helped me in my desperate quest to make ends meet. x
EDIT-Back on the quest, I've been away too long!0 -
Just back from T and they always seem to leave me feeling badly treated and shortchanged:mad::mad:.
Supervisor refused to accept my PP voucher, saying I had to present the original receipt - even though I showed there were no longer any receipt details on the voucher to cross-reference even if the receipt had been available. Stored the transaction, delayed me for some minutes, came back and say no, we need the original receipt. So I overpaid my bill by the voucher amount that they gave when promising to give me the difference.
Onto CS on the phone - and told them I had no problem in a different store last time so why the inconsistently, and I was then initially that it was up to the individual stores as to whether they accept a voucher or not(!) - so the promise seems therefore worthless if they don't. Ended up with a moneycard being sent to me - but for 27 pence more that the voucher. Hardly worth it and more an insult than anything else. Another bad shopping experience from Tosco.
T price promise - only if we feel like it depending on what the individual store you go to happens to think. Were not PPs supposed to be valid in all stores, e.g. including Expresses, Metros, Extras, whatever? (This was a Tesco Extra, but point made that valid in all stores and should be accepted on the same terms.)0 -

Sorry to read you had a rough time at Tesco, I had my worst trouting there and prefer to shop elsewhere if at all possible. Some of the SA's can be so rude, why have a system they don't want customers to use?
