    1 x Cadbury Dairy Milk Marvellous Creations Jelly Popp... £1.50 £0.59

    Comparison total (compared products only) £8.83 £8.63

    I'm sure this was mentioned yesterday - the jelly popping candy version is comparing at the full 200g price of £1.50 to the S's 47g price of 59p :beer: It's also on MSM as £1.50 for the 47g lol... I'm assuming they bought the 200g size although the apg doesn't say but you would have to assume nobody would pay £1.50 for a small bar!

    So the big bar works out at around 53p on APG :T:T:T

    If you hover the mouse cursor over the APG results a pop up shows the whole description. That might show you if it was 47g or 200g

    What was the barcode (I jnow it's missing the last digit but still might be able to check)

    Please and thanks :D

    It must have been the bigger bar because the smaller one is only 50p in A. Should compare to 3 for £1.20 at T.

    Evening all.

    RL has meant I've not been on for a few days, so I haven't a clue what's been going on, but on past form as soon as I'm MIA a big glitch kicks off, so I trust you've all been filling your boots. :D I hope all are doing ok and enjoying this lovely weather - all of a sudden it feels like a proper summer without having had a spring - very odd. To add to it all the weather on the Continent is not good, and none of OH's colleagues believe him when he tells them how lovely the weather has been the last two weekends. :T

    Enjoy it while it lasts, peeps. :rotfl:
    Hope is not a strategy.

    Hovering over it and it's showing as 47g :eek::eek::eek: but surely they can't have bought that and paid £1.50? Does anybody have a bar at home to check the bc please?

    BC is either 9411* or 9409* both are down as just Cadbury on the receipt.

    Are we all buying choc again now lol?! :j:j:j

    Thinking about it, if it WAS the 47g wouldn't we be paid to take them away as they are comparing with a 97p difference?

    One of two things is happening here with the CMC ( cba to type Cadbury Marvellous Creations too many times lol)

    Either

    A - Customer buys the 200g popping candy, pays £1.50 and it compares £1.50 to 59p therefore costing around 53p for a big bar after APG.:j:j:j

    or B - Customer buys the 47g popping candy, pays 50p and it compares at £1.50 to 59p therefore being paid 47p to take it away... :j:j:j:j:j

    I prefer option 2!:D

    What are the FULL barcodes (minus last digit)?

    if no-one is in A to check we could try googling the receipt BC and just add on 0-9 at the end

    Does it compare to any other supermarket at all or only S as per MSM?

    I think it's what you said at the start

    Buy the 200g for £1.50, APG thinks you bought the 47g for £1.50 and compares against the 47g in S for 59p

    :beer:
