    Is this because tessietwo bought nine rice instead of multiples of two?

    Exactly - Why didn't I see that :)

    1 x Uncle Ben's Express Special Fried Rice (250g)£1.50£1.00
    1 x Uncle Ben's Express Long Grain Rice (250g)£1.50£1.00
    1 x Uncle Ben's Express Pilau Rice (250g)£1.00£1.00
    1 x Uncle Ben's Express Golden Vegetable Rice (250g)£1.50£1.00
    1 x Uncle Ben's Express Chinese Style Rice (250g)£1.50£1.00
    1 x Uncle Ben's Express Basmati Rice (250g)£1.50£1.00

    1 x Uncle Ben's Express Egg Fried Rice (250g)£1.50£1.00

    I may be mistaken but you bought 9 not 10 rice? I bought Pilau as a pair and it worked last night. We need to buy in pairs and avoid the flavours that someone mentioned don't match.

    I also trialled Uncle Ben's sauces as they should produce a similar result but bought extra spicy and that was NA. Has anyone tried the sauces please?

    Many thanks

    Oh never thought of that
    Just saw bit about glitching yesterday eve and did a selection as thought rice price was being recognised at 1.50 instead of 1.00 paid. Must admit did read very quickly.
    Have to go now - hope I haven't confused any shopping lists:o

    You have to buy Uncle Ben's in twos as APG is apparently remembering the previous deal which was 2 for £3 and they recently changed their offer to £1 each (hence in 2s).

    Sorry, 'I seem to remember' :beer:


    Doh! :o I get what you mean now, I was thinking there was a super CC wheeze I hadn't cottoned on to! Sorry. :o :rotfl:
    Hope is not a strategy.

    No rhyme or reason to how this works.

    I only count 9 rice on tessies so 1 would not have had a 2 for £3 partner.

    Need to refresh before posting, lol, beaten to it ;)
