If anyone's been getting the free twinings tea from Waities, don't forget the MOCs expire today

Thank you for the reminder- got in just as they were about to close the doors! £4.29 for 15 tea bags is slightly OTT though and won't be buying!

5.30 As shop results in - Frijj choc still glitching vTs.

No sign of Cornetto 6 packs for £1 in Ms so offer must have ended or oos?

Thanks for this. The APG (from the results provided by the APG price collectors) appears to have got a quite accurate comparison here. It's the Chocolate Party Rings vs M; the 'normal' ones, bought here, are 'T or S' vs A (last time I looked earlier this week) or buy at A straight on a non-comp. (or sep.) shop.

There's a farmfoods not too far from me, thank you

Check they sell them, and take the voucher, as it could have been the other named store. (Just like lidl and aldi, I always get the two of them mixed up!)

My first thought was this compared quite well and that you did rather well. (What's your view about that?) Then I saw the disappointing £1.68 (+10% of 18.16 but still a little disappointing). Tizer 2L is 2 for £1.50 at M but Coca Cola Zero at 84p is the 1.5L rather than the 2L (had me thinking the comparison had come back wrongly on that for a moment). The Haribo Starmix 225g is the "wrong" one. No glitch on bacon.

I'd be inclined to refer to CS if this was your full shop (at least before I realised that it was the Coca Cola Zero 2L on there). Was going to say they need to pick up the soft drinks bottles more carefully! (A week or so ago they had N/A on the Pepsi and Pepsi Max 2L.) Less of a valid point now I've seen the volume of the coke zero bottles, but I'll still write it nonetheless.:)

Thanks Savvy, I don't know why it said £1.68, as it returned a £3.50 APG. I've been raiding your lists, though messed up on the Cola, oops. I picked up the minis as I couldn't find the right Haribo at my Sada.

Thanks davemorton as I did not know that farmfoods would take the vouchers:beer: I knew the big 4 did but because its a budget shop I've never tried coupons in farmfoods.:money:

I'll bear that in mind in future, no chance of me buying the chocolate party rings as dd won't eat them. I'm wishing I'd put the Moretti Lager into the AvM shop now.
