    not sure if I am getting this right, I can see that Pilgrim's Choice Extra Mature Cheese is £3.50 or 2 for £4.00 in Sada but currently half price £2.49 in Mr T. So if I buy 2 in sada as part of a targeted shop, am I risking it as if it recognises multibuy I am out?

    In 'normal' circumstances (non-glitch), the best option would be to buy one in A (you don't need to buy two and spend more, unless you need two). However, if it's a m'buy glitch day, it's even better and you would then buy two.

    This may help to simplify (unusual from me anyway:rotfl::rotfl:but here goes)...

    If you buy one; (glitch or no glitch since A multibuy is irrelevant to your shop)
    A £3.50 T £2.49. This adds £1.01 (the difference) plus about 25p (the 10%) to the APG voucher. Result: +£1.26

    If you buy two;
    Normal times - that is non-glitch:
    A £4.00 T £4.98. 10% cheaper than T's price for two would be approx. £4.48.
    Result: -48p
    Glitch day:
    A £7.00 T £4.98. We've already calculated what is 10% cheaper than T, so it's a straight £7.00-£4.48. Result: +£2.52

    As it's a net loss of 48p should you buy two in A and it be non-glitch day, you'd probably be best waiting for womble results and/or confirmation of the likely status of the day before you buy 2 in A. (Or, if you are thinking of buying 1 now, on a non-glitch day, perhaps best to wait and get two when the system starts to glitch again.)


    *****Simplication over.
    Now the explanation, for those who wish to read it/are interested...regarding the effective price on a glitch day:
    The £2.52 is just the effect on the APG amount. You actually pay £4 for 2 blocks of cheese in-store, so 2 blocks, on glitch day, on the pricing set-ups you have given, would be £4.00 you paid less £2.52 APG refund = £1.48. 74p each.
    Unless my maths have gone out again. Of course, you don't actually get £2.52 cash but that £2.52 must be spent again (unless competitors accept it), in A, on more purchasing. But since we'd shop at A anyway, as it's good as cash within the Sada store environment! (Exc. any trouting etc.)

    i feel the same too.... i have spent over 4 hours trying to suss this whole thing out, i THINK i have done it right, .......
    i have been to asda, done a shop bought the right products, took pics of the receipts, inputted them, but still nothing showing.... Even put a tenner of petrol in the car whilst i was there , came back , got an insurance quote with confused.com via topcashback and even refferred hubby! but how do i know if / what has tracked?
    is it just a waiting game or can i see what i have done and waiting for their approval or do i have to wait until they have approved it before it shows in my account?
    when i click on account overview it just says................
    "Unfortunately you have not earned any cashback yet! Luckily, as you're already a member, the next step is really easy!"

    Arghhhhhhhhhhhh
    Am i being impatient or have i got it all wrong?

    Mine says the same in account overview. If you click on the next heading 'earnings' mine shows the snap and saves payable

    Are you collecting full or empty? There's an empty one on ebay.

    Watched dispatches and panarama and like most who watched it am considering even giving up chicken as well now:eek:

    First 2 receipts uploaded to quido have come back saying receipt not clear enough so have uploaded again. Presume the 2 from saturday will be back tomorrow saying the same thing. Really don't want to have to go to the bother of scanning them into pc with scanner then attaching as taking photo is a lot easier when it works. Even shopitize took one without any fuss yesterday:T

    Evenng, im back from kids bedtimes. Regarding my rip off 79p apple earlier from A, I think I will FB them :D

    If they are the ones I'm thinking off (that I always avoid) I recall they are about £3.50/kilo. I think from memory that things like braeburn etc are £1.50-£2.00/kilo depending whether they are on rollback or not.
