    2 x Galaxy All About Indulgence Chocolate Egg (323g)£6.67£4.00
    2 x Walkers Doritos Hot Salsa (300g)£3.50N/A
    2 x Walkers Doritos Chilli Heatwave (200g)£3.50N/A
    2 x Walkers Doritos Cool Sour Cream & Chives Dip (300g...£2.00N/A

    3 x Rekorderlig Strawberry & Lime Cider (500ml)£6.45£5.00
    1 x Cadbury Wispa Large Egg (313g)£3.33£2.00

    A mixed result for me. There were no A8s so I thought I would try the Galaxy Indulgence but this has compared correctly, still only £1.80 per Easter Egg though. All of the Doritos cost £1 and although some of them show up on APG as 2 for £3.50 they are N/A against S and only compare well against W (99p each).
    The Cider cost £5 for 3 and multibuy not shown, so picked up a bit there.

    i asked how they knew about them and they said hukd:(
    just realised my total is 185 not what i posted earlier

    I'm very tempted to go out now but have not been to my locals for so long I have no idea whether I would find any.

    It's been a long time since I have had the adrenalin rush of a penny scan. ;)
