    Yes, absolutely. If the one that's been spotted this lunchtime, but soon after, there were 1000+ multibuys and now several thousand, it may only last part of a day or a few hours - depends when you do your shop and (possibly) the time you enter the receipt in.

    As regards buying now the glitch is over, but entering when the multibuy is off again (or two days after the multibuy goes off, or the day when others confirm it is a glitch day), this may not work: I had one receipt two or three months back, with a multibuy item that later went on a glitch, I waited till glitch day and entered it - but it returned with the multibuy. Glitches worked on receipts from that day, but not from shops done on a previous day. (Which raises the point - unresolved - of when a day starts and ends - e.g. what if a shop was done early hours of a glitch day, but before the glitch has entered the APG system, assuming that it even works that way?)

    Personally, I don't think it was fixed. I think it was updated.

    The fact that "some" items are still glitching would mean that its not a fix, take the pepsi for £1 that someone said about trying. that was fixed really quickly and others was not.

    Perhaps a fine distinction, but possibly right.

    In the search for 1p toblerones (which we eventually found ) I noticed that the full price stock on shelves in my T was valentines day packaging. Was this the same for others?. Might be worth putting on the checklist for possible reduction at some stage?:)

    The Pepsi may have had its multibuy off during a different timeframe to the other items. We know (- do we?) that MSM isn't updated in a flash but rather, individual items are scraped from the store's websites and each updated. That's why some items (like the Cathedral) had their multibuy on again, when others, such as some of the CBY puddings were multibuy-less at the same time - and then they too, at different times to each other (and possibly differently in different areas of the country) - gained their multibuys back.

    They usually gain their multibuys just after I've finalised my shopping list and ready to go shopping - i.e. when I have just missed out!:mad:

    Over numerous shops compiled on MSM, over many months, viewing thousands of items and prices at different moments, on one occasion, the price of an item changed right in front of me whilst I was viewing its details! Probably the exact moment of the update of that item being caught.
