    The basic idea is to buy stuff that is dearer in A's or the same as your targeted shop ie T's to return an APG. Most of the stuff on your list is cheaper in A"s.....

    HTH :)

    But then does it really work out to be of any great benefit or do you just pick and choose from peoples lists what you might want or need that week?
    Sorry if I seem dumb - I will blame baby brain! :-)

    I'm surprised A was cheaper to be honest as I was shocked by the amount spent considering to look at it I just appear to have bought a load of rubbish!!
    Again I shall blame baby brain but I really need to first of all get back to eating a more balanced diet now and secondly reduce the grocery bill in order to help out whilst on maternity!
    Dream of being mortgage free....

    If you buy say £40 worth of stuff in A's and it costs exactly the same in T's and it's dearer elsewhere you will get an APG for £4 because of the 10% £4 every week or whatever soon mounts up :)

    Shopping lists tend to planned, checked and double checked on myS before shopping to get the best returns

    APG has the potential for big gains when multi buys are not recognised :cool: or things compare at silly prices like the bombay potatoes, Kingsmill bread, S&G deoderant etc :)
    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.

    Have you received your orders?
    If so, are the 5000 points showing on the delivery note?
