I have noted that the APG can be one hour out when entering receipts (it says you entered your receipt one hour different to what you did) - I also note in the APG info it says it is updated by 10am. Is that the significance of 8am matching at full price but 9am not? We know that APG isn't matching "live" as the prices people report at the point of purchase, or the point of getting their APG result, don't necessarily match what they can see on MSM (and MSM can be different logged in or out...).

If we could know for sure when the price on MSM is reflected in the APG results we would have more accuracy in knowing whether a glitch (no-multi showing but appears on receipt, or indeed other type!) would work or not.

It was clear yesterday and Sunday that Dove Pro Age kept appearing and disappearing from the 2 for £3 deal on MSM. People kept buying and reported it still matching at the full price all day yesterday (at times when it was appearing or not in the £2 for £3) so does it, as their information suggests, normally only update once per day (in time for 10am) and then that is normally locked in until the next by-10am next day update? We know sometimes that is not always the case as people's APG results have differed during the day with some getting caught out when a glitched price has ended (and indeed when glitches have sometimes appeared part way through the day!) while others have carried on buying when it has apparently been updated on MSM, but they have still got the glitched price - so the relevance of the overnight/early morning update is one key factor. When it ends part way through a day, it may be that a manual override is being used?

Yesterday if I recall Dove ended the day showing in the 2 for £3 but Sunday evening it wasn't (so Monday it was then stuck at the full/non-2 for £3 price, and this morning pre-10am update it locked in the 2 for £3)?

The APG rules claim that it matches T/S/W with prices correct on the day of purchase from their websites (errors and omissions excepted!) with Morrisons twice a week. Yet we have also experienced examples where offers have not appeared in APG results despite clearly showing on Ts and MSM that day for example.

So in summary, there must be logic in there somewhere as it is a computer (even where there is a glitch - that may be a result of data being entered incorrectly either by their screen scaper/website reader or someone with fat fingers!), it is just working out what logic it is following ... on that day at that time!

No, no, no, there's more than one update! (Meaning more than one update a day.) That's just my thought though, I don't have any inside info. I suspect there's also something going on around eight in the evening - that's around the time when I see pricing changing on MSM and why I feel after 11pm/the first few hours of the next day are a bit of a risk. There's got to be some time that the offers/pricing changes from one day to the next. I think there's probably a midday update as well, judging by the ending of the last (5-day) big glitch.

Goodbyeeee....:rotfl::):)

Despite what people say who hate it, Windows 8 is really super quick and makes an oldish computer running XP Pro or Vista really quick again provided 2GB RAM.

Yes when this one packs up i'll go back to a desk top :rotfl:


You can avoid its user-unfriendliness by installing Classic Shell for free, which makes it look like a Window 7 PC :cool:

Am running windows 7, tosh gave me some excuse about previous models having a known fault, typical tosh.

Right I'm off for a beer and to watch some TV (I know, it doesn't happen often!).

The wife is delivering emergency rations to one of her friends on FB. She has fallen on hard times and is absolutely skint. She is now stocked up with all manner of food, washing stuff, choices, a smelly candle and some wine to cheer her up. Not forgetting stock cubes and flumps lol.

Every little helps...
