    Hi

    I make a list based on multibuys where the individual item price is as high as possible to the total multibuy price. Eg atm, the Herbal Essence 400mls are 2 for £4 at A, but £3.78 each. You then need to look for a T, S or W comparison (or M if you are up to speed on their prices, but that is harder) for prices much cheaper than the individual item price at A. In this example, the 400ml HE are £1.89 at S.

    This way, if it glitches it is bonanza time, and if it doesn't, you shouldn't be too far out on the A multibuy offer price anyway.

    SO with the HE example, if it is a glitchy day for this item, buy 2, pay £4, APG sees £7.56. The comparison price at S is £3.59 (ie £3.98 less 10%), so the difference for your APG is £3.97, but you only actually paid £4 :beer: (I think? I am OK at the principle but not too good with the actual sums :o). So 2 big bottles of HE for 3p??

    And if you are going for a comparison against S. I think this is the best return on the coke 2L bottles as they are 2 for 1 £1.98 at S. So APG will see £3.98 for every 2 bought, so £2 back and only £2.50 spent, makes them 25p a bottle minus the 10% of course...I always look for the best possible coke deals as I am addicted. Really hoping it is a glitch day, although not sure I want to brave the cold weather.

    Jeez! - where you live - the Bronx?? :eek: :eek: :eek:

    My son lived in New York for 3 months after Uni. He lived with friends for a week or so then found a room really quickly as his friend was coming to stay. He stayed there for a couple of weeks then moved to the East Village. He only told me after he moved that he did not sleep well in the Bronx as all you could hear were gunshots all night.

    Still only 292 multi-saves showing for me. Are they playing with us or is it real?

    I don't really know, however that's how I'm describing him, however I can imagine for your gratification. Probably not in a favourable light tbh......
