Do not use the above list for Svs T or Tvs S as N/As for T or S above may mean they do stock the item but far more expensively than the place that is showing with a price. N/A for T or S may mean it would not be good to put it on a 'Vs A' comparison in that store (T/S) marked as N/A. Or it may automatically be marked N/A for T and A if it's a S-own brand item that is very good value, IMO, in S and as an own brand doesn't compare on BM. (Of course, a Sains own brand that's very good value won't be on here if there is any comparable equivalent from A - then the A version will be on the Avs S saved thing I've got. (10% cheaper).) For Svs T and Tvs S, see the appropriate posts.

*S offer until 11/6 - best to wait till afterwards to see if multibuy removed (if buying more than one Cow & Gate in S) and then better BM vs A???

A lot of N/As and same prices for some £1 Boursin! (Assuming it compares to that on T PP.) May find there are other items later. Actually £1 for 96g of cheese seems steep - I'm sure these have been on 80-odd p or lower before (in T).
