I'm still struggling to get my head round this.
Let me get this right....you could have got your shopping for £8.40. Instead you paid £14.44. You get the difference back, plus 85p. So to make 85p profit you have to deliberately do a more expensive shop than what you could have done, plus ensure your shop complies with the APG T&Cs, and spend time & printer ink/paper to log on & print your APG. All of that is assuming that you haven't spent extra time/petrol going to Asda instead of the cheaper shop. And you don't get loyalty points either?
If I've got this right, it's hardly the steal of the century *confused*0 -

I haven't taken part in this glitch (cheese etc.) at all but thought I would today now the pepsi comes up. So considering adding it.I've just bought one Pepsimmax today as part of a cheese shop, have I got it wrong yet again ...
Is the APG randomly showing a higher price than paid, or is pepsi 8 pack on a multibuy offer in store?Cup of Tea? :coffee:0 -

they only paid £10.93 but the apg machine thought they paid more. So their full shop (less apg voucher) cost just over £4

Not quite as cheap as we've sometimes had but still this seems a very good deal to me ! (especially as the whole shop only came to £14.92 and I used a £12 gift card which I got when I bought something with an almost date expired APG from the big glitch last Sept. and then retuned it for a refund onto a card!) Probaly worth a rinse and repeat later today.
Hope that helps.ELITE 5:2
