Well hubby knocked my cough into a cocked hat last night, he found a lump in his chest!

Now I'm adding 2 & 2 and making 5, as last year he was constantly having blood tests as his white count was up. The doctors just said they couldn't find anything else and they weren't concerned but now ...

Oh FloFlo, hopefully the doc will see him tomorrow and get him sent up to the hospital to get it sorted.

If anyone wants to do a 'test' shop today at T (vs M), perhaps with an outstanding PP voucher, my list is on page one. I've moved into it/added more items, so there should be now above 10. T Eday Value Apple Crumble came with N/A for M last time I bought it several weeks ago - it's 8p difference, you could try it (it's the frozen one) - you won't lose out by 8p!!:rotfl::mad: Please PM me if there is another sort of item you need and want to know whether there's a good value product at T that should genuinely be N/A for M and whether I'd advise risking it to use as a 'filler' if you are struggling to make the 10 items up.

What I've seen is that, even with the S&S back, the amount you've then effectively paid can be still more expensive than alternative brands (on the right comp vs someone else perhaps) or more expensive than 'trade downs' from brands to own-brands/'value' range items. No point getting 20p back off an item that is now priced £1 everywhere, but last week was on special offer at 50p somewhere.

Selective take-up of offers is again the key!! (Also don't be inticed simply because there's cashback - it could work out, even with the cashback, more expensive than an alternative - and equally good - option.)

I agree with this selective take up but remember to check any wombles - I have had a few with a's 10% cheaper but a s&s item on it

He will be getting a similar complaint from me as well ! Apart from several 'P off we don't give a monkeys' emails from CS, the latest one implies that I've been getting false PP's in the past, I shouldn't have got them and they are 'escalating' the matter ! Nothing like making the customer take the blame for their carpy system. I wonder why the Tesco system fails so often and they have had to make numerous changes when Sainsbury and Asda get it so right (apart from when MSM muddles the prices). The Asda APG system has been going well for years and the glitch last year was down to MSM not ASDA. Tesco would do well to learn from them.

Morneng all, think Morissons are telling on Tesco too for false adverticing

Yes, I've noticed this. Hadn't added it as I thought everyone now had enough cheddar. I think the missing m'buy glitch is now over, and I was going :eek: at a price of nearly £2! (Illogically, as the Cathedral City was £2.19.) If trying it (the Pilgrim's Choices), make sure you get the right ones - and sadly don't ask which those are, I'm afraid with the Cathedral glitching at the time and therefore already known to be better than 10% off £1.99, I didn't note it:o and also accounting for the 'risk' of comps vs M returning N/A (with potentially no recompense as it would be a glitched shop) at a time when we knew vs S on the other brand was safely comparing to the £2.19 each price.

The rich & smooth is advertised in M's pamphlet.

Also Veetee Dine in Basmati Rice (280g) compares £1 A,S & T v 74p M.

And Maxwell House Rich & Full Coffee Granules (200g) £4.68 T v £2.24 M

It seems there's no wine glitch I'm afraid - at least not on the missing item trigger thing at A. There are three different m'buys on wine in A - MSM has picked up the number that are on a.com - indeed, on one of them, MSM has more wines showing than sada.com has! However, it could be a different picture in other parts of the country, so do check if a.com has more wines for you that perhaps aren't on MSM (and then need to ask whether they are on someone else's MSM!!).
