    Oh no, the Choc Fudge Brownie has picked up the multi:(. But the strawberry worked a treat.:money::beer::beer:

    It's OK, I only really wanted to get strawberry. It was DH who wanted to get the fudge brownie and seeings as he drove me there and back I gave in so wasn't expecting it to glitch anyway. If it had done it would have been a bonus.
    I did edit my post (don't know if you saw) the meatballs for some reason haven't compared and that was on your list (I buy them anyway in Ts so it didn't matter)
    I had a mare while shopping and couldn't remember if it was 8 or 10 items but seem to have ended up with 15 :rotfl: :o

    Question for our resident t's garden expert aau1.
    If I order something in the garden double up to collect in t's will they still do a price promise as it is £15 cheaper elsewhere but as it is in the double up I am not sure if they will price match.
    I want to by the mower/strimmer package which I believe is only £55 in b and q.
    Being mse and sacking the gardener. New neighbours have been doing a good job on joint front garden so I now only have a square patch at the back to mow.
    Gardener has been a bit slap dash lately so now is the time to do it myself.

    Just looking at whether I messed up on the S/P Meatballs. I must admit I've not had time to check every product (the low-value ones, or should that be high-value?, lower-priced) to see it's within the 10% weight for the competitor. But it's based on the best of my knowledge, so it should be in the right area.

    I thought: are S/P Meatballs vs S? But, no, I've found them, sorry, on my Avs T list - you got the one in Gravy, should have been Tomato Sauce. Also got the Wafer Thin Ham rather than the plain Cooked Ham (I got that wrong one some time ago when I first tried it). Very well done though.

    Apologies from me for forgetting to include the following on my Avs T list:
    Tetley Tea Bags 240 - A £5.00 T £2.89. T's price though due to go on enough into June, so seems still time for it to be on your next vs T shop, another day. Sorry about that - not saved into my private list, perhaps because we are not in need of any tea at the moment - but should have added it on. Also, Tampax Pearl Regulars 40 are £3.00 each in A and T at the moment (till 3/6). Other version currently also vs S as well as T, but smaller number*. Also, for those in GB, Pearl Regular 40s vs W at 2 for £6.00 but why multibuy if don't need to? On that matter, Avs W may well be coming next from me... not right now, but hopefully soon.

    *Tampax Pearl Super Applicator 36 - vs T to 3/6 (treat as 2/6), S £3 to 18/6 and W in 2s to 18/6.

    I could be misinforming but I don't think they'd price promise it as its comparable in their mind

    Aaaaah, I didn't realise they were in gravy (my local As is only a small one and I grabbed them without even checking as they were the only S/P ones on the shelf).
    I had a feeling the ham was wrong but again it was the only one there.
    Both these are items I normally buy anyway (DH will eat meatballs in anything, I could probably feed him balled up cat food in gravy and he wouldn't notice :D ) so I'm not upset.
    Wonder why the ham doesn't compare as I have both value and S/P side by side here and they look the same to me :( both 400g.
