Oh how lovely! You'll not be far from the coast, and Beverley and lots of other places nearby are nice. I went to primary school in Driffield when I was 5, my dad was stationed at the RAF camp. Happy days, even though we had to cross the playground to get to the outside toilets. God, I sound old.
And I'm not, I'm really not! :rotfl:
We went to Yorkshire 2011 and really enjoyed it, we went to Bridlington, Whitby, Scarborugh, Robin hoods bay and really enjoyed it, is there anything cheap or free to do near there?:D MSE at its best :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Sealed pot challenge number 003 £350 for 2015, 2016 £400 Actual£345, £400 for 2017 Actual £500:T:T £770 for 2018 £1295 for 2019:j:j spc number 22 £1,457Stopped Smoking 22/01/15:D:D::dance::dance:- 5 st 1 1/2lb :dance::dance:0 -

Lost 50p on the bakewells, but they'll taste nice.
I must have bought the wrong naans!?
And I bought smartie cones and magnums, 2 for £3, smarties still not showing on apg so magnums compare at full price.0 -

I put the details of a receipt into the APG site and every item came back marked N/A. I exchanged several emails with HQ before finally getting a specific response. This was to tell me that the banana (10p), carrot (7p) and mushroom (8p) I had bought were of too small a weight to be able to be compared.
Odd thing is, whilst the Tesco, Sainsbury and Waitrose comparisons were all marked N/A the APG did compare against Morrison's.
Many welcomes to the thread.
Go back to HQ. (You've obviously got a response from a general CS person and not someone specific on the APG team.) The fact they compared vs M's shows they aren't too small to include in the APG. There's no restriction on minimum price - or minimum weight as far as I know of. There is a maximum weight, for a single item, of 10kg (a fact which I doubt is widely known).
This was due to the APG going N/A against all except M's on one day last week when, it seems, its daily updating of the online prices of the rivals failed in the sense it updated everything to N/A. (The comp vs M wouldn't be updated again till later in the week, as their prices are not online and are updated only twice a week, not daily, hence why there was still an M comp.) There's no minimum weight (in my long experience of doing APG comps) - min. number of "different grocery items that appear on MSM.co.uk" but no minimum weight or minimum spend. A 10p Haribo pack (provided it's on MSM) counts as an item just as much as an expensive electric toothbrush. It seems to me ridiculous to suggest there's a minimum on loose fruit, which can be bought in many weights, and still counts as one different item to me whatever amount is purchased.
The reply to the response that they are too small to be compared is to ask what the precise minimum weight limit is? I suspect that person won't have any answer to that, as there isn't any. (In addition to the question of why M's compared then if there was a minimum weight?) But really instead of that, this should be referred onto the APG team. Email them back and ask, at the start of your reply, for the correspondence to referred to APG team as there's no min. weight you're aware of, you bought 8 different items (or however many) (and it compared vs M's).0 -

As per CoT post above, it looks like 2 x 2L of cravendale are not picking up the multibuy discount v T. Therefore, 2 x 2L will cost you £1.74 after APG (£3.96 - £3 then take off the 10%)Tiger :cool:
