    Does Tesco Price Promise include promotions?
    Yes. We compare price reductions and most promotions – in Tesco and at Asda, Sainsbury’s and Morrisons*. Included are:

    Multibuy – including ‘buy–one–get–one–free’, ‘buy 2 for £3’ and ‘3 for the price of 2’
    Price cuts – for example, a discount from 99p to 50p

    So does that mean whoopsies then?

    :eek::eek::eek:

    Whoopsies have compared before on TPP for me so I would not be surprised in the slightest if they did with the new system. I always separate the whoopsies out of a targeted shop.

    Quite interested to see how this new instant PP pans out :D

    Afternoon all,

    Been a relaxed but productive day so far. Have been spoilt with chocolates, flowers, some gardening bits and a home made chocolate rice krispie cake :D

    Have spent most of the afternoon comparing energy tarriffs as our previous deal finished at the beginning of Feb and we'd been moved onto their extortionate standard tariff :eek:. Finally made a decision and switched. Sadly the best deal seems to be with our current supplier but is for new customers only :(. Still, we'll be better off just by getting off the current tarriff. Spoke to Mum and sis yesterday about looking at their energy suppliers as they've both been with the same ones for years but neither of them interested in changing. Hate to think how much they could save but it's too much effort.....

    My next challenge for today is to find a good deal on a tablet. Think i'll be spending more and more time in bed over the next few weeks and it'll be easier than having laptop (which has to be plugged in as battery won't hold any charge :rotfl:) or read the tiny print on my phone. Love my sisters ipad but no way we could run to that at the moment. No idea where to start so this could take some time :p

    Hope you are all having a nice day. Hugs to all those who are finding it tough

    The kindle fire has been on offer recently at carphone warehouse at £89. I don't have one but seems a good price.

    Just about to go to mums to take her some flowers. But patching myself up for the inevitable "when r u starting it diet" speech. Like I need her to have a go when feel bad enough myself that I have no clothes that fit and feel rotten. No doubt I'll comfort myself with an egg when I get home!!!

    I know how you are feeling, it's horrible isn't it. But my Mum is always trying to feed me, even when she knows how bad I feel about my weight - don't know which is worse.

    Logie if you are thinking of the Kindle Fire (I have one) please be aware that you need a micro recharger to recharge from the mains, it only comes with a USB to charge from your computer which takes at least 8 hours. You might already have one, but they are nearly £20 to buy from Amazon, found one on Ebay which was just under £4.00 delivered.

    Good items to use to test if multis are glitching are the club biscuits in a shop vs T.

    £1.80 a pack and 2 for £2.50 at A. 87p at T. And two different flavours counts as 2 items, so I sometimes get these as "fillers".

    Even if not glitching, under 80p a pack is not a bad price anyway :)
