there's always people willing to test. yes there are a few multi buy glitches confirmed today. Galaxy cake bars, actimel drinks that I remember. But also some possible glitches that didnt work....coke zero2l, red grapes
there's no such thing as a perfect shop!:mad: I had one planned for Ts the other day. One bottle wine short meant a £7 pp instead if £10:mad:

This time I've 'tested' by doing my 'normal shopping' - things I was going to get, or needed, anyway - just in the right shopping at the right times!! I thought red grapes might not last - I seem to recall that was a glitched low price for the rival rather than a multibuy, but these things sometimes fall off the system (and become an unwanted N/A) after a few days. I can see why Coke Zero 2L might not work - it's showing on sada.com as £1 each or - wait for it - any 2 for £3.50!!:rotfl::rotfl:

I have dug deep, and, hopefully, gone far and wide (but not wide off the mark:rotfl:) in my shopping vs Waities. The Cadbury Choc. Rolls, though, I put back - they were 2 for £2.00 a few hours ago (last night) but scanned at £1.60 each in the store these early hours. Would have been great if that had given the instore multibuy and then compared vs the price of 2 at W.

I think there is a perfect shop - one where no item has a lower price than the amount of pennies over the total value of the vouchers you've used and where it compares vs everything cheaper/not 10% more expensive at one particular competitor. That said, sometimes I have abandoned shops altogether if I couldn't find an important item I really wanted.

Was the one bottle of wine short because the store had one fewer number than the amount you needed, or did you accidentally pick up one bottle too few? I've had things like this before - or picked up the wrong item - hopefully the more and more we do this, the fewer mistakes we'll make in future.

No potatoes/herbs and butter in store for my second shop (vs T):mad: - but they can go on the next shopping paid for with the vouchers back! Regarding 'testing', I am afraid I cannot afford more failed test shops - it's time to rack it up to a more perfect level and get it totally right each time.

I went 'alone' on my shop versus T, as I originally went to just do the one shop (vs W) but then decided, while going there, to save the petrol and do two - I took only my W shopping list with me though, so I was 'alone' on my T shop, relying entirely on my memory as to what to buy. I bought two packs of ice lollies (room in the freezer for those after all!:rotfl:) on 2 for £3 but after looking along the aisle at the different ones and trying to remember which two of them were much cheaper in T. I've done it right, of course, but hopefully there will be a glitch bonus - everything on my shop glitchy!!

Oh no, 3239 multibuys for A on MSM now. Can only hope it reflects the data as at the time of my shopping or otherwise doesn't pick up the mix and matches. Or that the information now on the website takes time to reach the comparison computer.

It's late and yes we are drunk, but this is a good idea folks, lets get on it in the morning and raise a few more quid for charity, MAD has shown us all that we can do it......and we can have some fun at the same time

I thought everyone was drunk tonight.
I was already thinking, if I can predict the glitches, hopefully I can predict the winner of the National?

lol, you somehow managed to delete your own horse there FC, so I will add it back for you because I am too kind!

Okay, sweepstake on the national..
There are 40 horses at the moment, all of these horses have been numbered randomly by myself, and the list sent to another forum member to scrutinise.
What happens is you pledge a pound (or more) and the 'owner' of the winning horse chooses a charity for the donations to be paid too. You then pay your 'stake' to that charity through the just giving website, I will give the link after the race, for the charity has been chosen. If this all goes tits up, please dont blame me, it is late
If you want to pledge, copy and paste the list, and add your name and these instructions please.

I will take any horses left at a pound each. We hope to release the list of the horses you have chosen just before the race, to get you more excited!

I see it now... I don't even get to know which horse it is till later. I'm bound to pick the right one, but not to have placed a bet on it, and therefore win nothing. I feel like predicting the winner - but it's sods law and bound to come in unless I go down the bookies and bet on it. If I do go and put a bet on, it's bound then not to win.

I'm rambling and going round in circles, but I will of course be watching the National later and setting aside something for charity.
