    I could be totally wrong but it seems that the glitch is fixed from shops from Sainsbury's? does Sainsbury's update on a Thursday?

    Think of it this way, Asda system checks Sainsbury's last Thursday and did its update, but Sainsbury's updated later on that day. This could be why it had the old price and not the new. It then checked Sainsbury's prices today and updated its own system.

    I could be wrong, The simple products are still glitching.

    Got the cheese after the glitch ended, so lost out on some apg,
    But s&g still working against T. Shop done about 1.00pm

    It will do (the S&G). That's a different issue.
    So - the Cod Fish Fingers, Potatoes/Herbs & Butter, Bombay Pots, Kingsmill Really Seeded, S&Gs and anything else I've missed - I think these will still work.

    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?)

    Thank you :)

    This is from this morning, but I think this may well still work - multibuys were back on these (some, but not all, of them) at 8.30 last night - so expect to end sometime tomorrow evening?
    Chicken Soup and Mushroom Soup may last longer - as multibuy was still off when I went out for my shop at around 9pm. Best return is (was?) buying 6 vs Sains. - silly people buying 5 again!:rotfl:

    Also I noticed Jordan's fruesli bars I noticed on Wednesday £1.99/99p
