    (Started at around 10pm, finishing it now!!): Very good evening. I see that there are glitches still working, judging by the latest posts (and assuming the shops were done only a few hours ago and entered into the system as soon as they could be).

    You're tempting me back out now, for another shop vs T, for more and different items and hopefully get my purchase money all back!!

    Northern Ireland - with my sincere apologies again - please skip the rest!

    Well, with glitches continuing, I have not long arrived back, from the biggest ever Morries collection yet!! In that, I might have missed the odd S/P equivalent item here and there, but details of products have been taken down even in cases where, normally, I wouldn't have seen the offer price (less 10%) as particularly 'good' value but, with the PG glitching, it might be very different!

    Although, again, they'll be a delay until I can get all information on here (if I ever manage that!), I will do what I can tomorrow night and then also start as soon as I get here (hopefully 5pm) on Friday night onwards. You'll be pleased to know that every item will be checked against the information on MSM (and hopefully a.com as well) to identify any that might give good glitch returns and any trigger items for other multibuys in-store that ought to compare well vs M!

    I don't know if anyone detected it, but I was starting to mention glitch day options less and less in my Avs M lists, as it was becoming unduly long since we last had a glitch. Obviously, it will go complete opposite again now!

    Whilst I arrive on here late tonight (due to the price collecting), I am popping in to give you some highlights - shall I start with some of the potential and/or favourite glitch items?

    As was revealed earlier (yesterday), before I got there today, the individual Mullers are back on 10 for £3.00 in M! Fuller details will of course be given as soon as I can later, but I can tell you M's offer includes Rice, Corner or Light.

    Yesterday rootednomad spotted some items on 3 for £6.00 in A - only some of them were on MSM and therefore they worked with a trigger item to compare full price on the two that did appear vs T. I don't know yet whether T's offer, which was due to end today, has been rolled over, but some of the Simples mentioned continue to be offer at M until 14/4 (these weren't noted last week, absent any knowing that a glitch was going to happen). They may or may not have been picked up on the APG - but I think some of it is a question of discovering what may/may not work (has anyone got any details of how these are comparing to M?):

    Simple Kind to Skin Refreshimng Facial Wash Gel (150ml) is £1.99 at M. Simple Kind to Skin Purifying Cleansing Lotion (I am not sure whether this is 'fast acting' or not yet, till I see what it is on MSM in detail) but it's £1.99 in M. Simple Foaming Face Wash 150ml is £1.99 (M).

    I couldn't find the Moisturising Facial Wash. However, I found another couple of items, which may or may not be available in T, and I'm not sure, till I check, whether these are in A's 3 for £6 offer (even assuming that's still going today) - Simple Soothing Toner 200ml £1.99.

    What I think is probably the Simple Kind to Skin Hydrating Light Moisturiser (I have it as 125ml, it was in M) is £2.50 at M until 14/4. There is also some Simple Replenishing Rich Moisturiser (125ml) for £2.33.

    I have some Simple Triple Action Face Wash 150ml at £2.32 in M as well.

    I thought I might well be there till closing time tonight. However, happily, I seemed able to cut it short as I found only a couple of Dove Men+ Care items stocked, at 250ml, and were more expensive in M's than seems to be/have been the case at other rivals. So it looks like potentially Simples on vs M, but Dove Men +Care not. It doesn't seem M have many in that size, and the few that are are much more expensive.

    The Uncle Ben Express Rices are still £1 each in M, and I think I've found a couple of other ones to tell you about later.

    There's also Homepride Pasta Bakes (500g) on offer in M until 28/4 - don't know if there's an A multibuy on those at present?

    Ragu Sauces 400g/454g are on £1.99 BOGOF in M, and the APG seems (or seemed) to be picking up the M BOGOF - again it may be only certain varieties stocked in M of the ones A have. M have 8 different varieties it seems.

    I've got a note, for some reason, to check the price of Mini Babybel Original (6x20g) - and it's £1.25 in M.

    Fray Bentos 475g pies are 'any 2 for £3.00' in M - this does NOT include the Mince & Onion variety. The ones stocked by M, that appear to be included, are Chicken & Mushroom, Steak & Kidney, Steak & Mushroom, Steak & Ale and Just Steak (unless I'm wrong and all the 'steaks' are being excluded as 'mince'). If you want to try vs M, with a possible back-stop vs S, the Flash Lemon Liquid 1L is on £1 at M (same price I believe as S). Assuming S still has Fray Bentoses each for £1.50 equivalent. (Not sure if anything's changed on that in the last 24 hours.)

    The Kipling Viennese Whirls are once again 65p in M (but let this filter down into the APG). We've got the Flora Cuisine (500ml) on 2 for £2 in M. Gourmet Gold cat food is on 8 for £3 (but probably certain ones are comparable).

    Cadbury's Desserts - 70g? - Flake - Crunchy - Buttons - DM Crunch - are still 78p BOGOF for M (not a great price normally, but with a multibuy failure on the A side may be much better? If indeed they are on any multibuy in A - not yet checked).

    I have the Tropicana Kids Apple 4x200ml or Orange 4x200ml each on £1 until 5/5 for M. For £1 (or even 90p) you get very little, but if there's any multibuy failure for A on them, it may be worthwhile who knows?

    Pantene Shampoos/Conditioners 400g/500g are still on £2.00 at M. There's also VO5 shampoo/conditionar £1.00 to 14/4, Give Me Moisture, Revive Me..., Gloss Me..., Nourish Me... (what size?)

    And lots more. Finally for now, this:

    Simple Kind to Skin Exfoliating Wipes (25) £2.00
    Simple Spotless Quick Fix Wipes (28) £1.99

    Niveas:
    Regenerating Night Cream 50ml £3.00
    Refreshing Toner 200ml £2.00
    Eye Make Up Remover Lotion 125ml £2.00*
    Double Effect Eye Make Up Remover 125ml £2.00* (*whoops, until 10/4)
    Tinted Daily £3.00
    Light Day Cream £3.00
    Rich Moisturising Day Cream £3.00.

    Okay, I'll have to stop there for tonight, I'm afraid, but hopefully that's been helpful for now.

    Good night.:):)
