Savvy's solved it! The total price of these items (2 diff. peppers, one cucumber and 2xSalad Leaves) on the comparison is £2.80 (51p+51p+51p+£1.27). All these items are showing in the 2 for £1 offer on MSM (which isn't relevant!) but the Salad Leaves are on bogof, so T have given you that. That leaves three items left - you've got 2 of those for £1, but missed the multibuy on one of them (by getting an odd number in this shop) therefore 80p individual price on one (doesn't matter which, as they're all 80p each - the cucumber, the yellow pepper and the orange pepper). The PP's then proportioned the amount to each of the products, without a glitch.
Although I'm trying to think it out...it's included the bogof salad leaves. The cucumber is 80p T vs 50p A, so could buying the salad leaves with the cucumber still leave the cucumber at 80p but you paid less? But then you'd have to get the multibuy, it seems to have compared the way it has due to the number bought missing a multibuy but I suspect, had the multibuy been got, sadly the multibuy price would be picked up.
I won't go into how you should have taken out some of the items from this shop, such as the Maynard Wine Gums (and at a push bought them Avs T or Avs S, I say at a push because, although I've compared to £1.00 4pack Maynards in the past, it's no longer a good price for me, even with 10%) and why the Cathedral City at T when it's had a glitch before in A, or in any event Avs T or vs M?! (Although I know although you have an A available to you, you only went to one shop, T, today.) There may have been T MOCs off so much spend on fresh veg/salad - last time I had something similar (months ago), I tried a mix and match with the non-comp. salad leaves and some fresh veg packs, some of which were comparable and some not, but sadly the multibuys were accounted for correctly.0 -

Evening all....small glitch on frozen quorn in A's. Currently 3 for £5 but not showing on MSM.
southern style chicken burgers are £1 in Mr T so if you get 3 should work out at 68p a pack ....if my maths is correct.
EDIT: 3 for £5 now showing on MSM0 -
Afternoon All
Catching up on the sunshine today as felt left out by all the nice weather you all had yesterday. Not sure why but down here we seem to be last to get any sunshine so hoping it lasts a few more days.
Had just settled down in sun when next doors bbq was lit but luckily after 15 minutes the smog had gone and sunbathing could be resumed.
Thank you to Snap Ant for the new thread, checked drawer and no sunflower seeds left so will restock tomorrow and join in. Potatoes have spung into life this week (I had thought they were sulking as using nice big sada plastic tubs in bright pink) pleased they have made an apperance as family thought i had lost the plot when i decided to grow them.
Been busy getting dressing/guest room ready as dd and dgd coming to stay from tuesday. Ordered howletts passes from cc points. Quite a thrill as first time i have had enough cc points to do anything like that so thats a nice day out sorted. If keeps like this then it will be icecream on the beach and dgd's first paddle in the sea. And lots of playing in grandmas garden.
Hope my potatoes survive small hands:eek:
Can we please have a mega sunlotion glitch as ds2 has asked me to look out for some for his holiday next month. Bless him, he is getting more price savvy and sent me a text on friday, did I know t's had 24 cans coke for £5? er yes I have a garage full as although still not glitchy price it will do me for now.
Hope everyone enjoys the BH weekend:T
