    And so it turned out...

    ...58 pence:(.

    Scotsmac Medium Sweet Fortified Wine (70cl) is a goer - though it's only 70cl - it is comparing vs £4.00 at M.

    Confirmation on the Kellogg's 500g Frosties to come later (from me) - receipt on that not due for checking yet. That's part of my own shop, incidentally, did enjoy pointing to the 750g Frosties at £2.00 and then looking at the 500g Frosties at £2.28 each... and which is cheaper:) - yes, it's the 500g Frosties that are on half price at M and therefore 10% off that ...!!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:We hope. Also liked doing, in A, the multibuy at M on the tinned alphabettis - picking up 4 at a time while other shoppers looked on at me bemused! My "hidden multibuy" buying again!:):rotfl:Bully for Mr A!:D

    [Postscript - it might be the tomatoes, better, tomorrow!]

    Cruising the Fjords, dahhhling!

    Just too expensive to fly anywhere, so booked with a US agent got a good price, nice cabin, free drinks package and free onboard credit, can't wait. Doing a couple of nights in Clacton first too, haven't been there since I was about 9.

    Oh, will be great, I did that last year

    ...Did you do the same shop as me?:cool::rotfl: That's how mine started last time - with a sparkling water, then the yogs:D.

    ...Last thing... I think that's the point about why the earlier shop didn't work perfectly. I think (and I'm glad I realised this in the nick of time on my own shopping) we need to buy in 2s for the APG to pick up the "any 2 for £4.00" bit of the "£1.00 - any 2 for £4.00" that is on APG and which it has stored. Instore it's all a pound each and you don't get charged £4.00 for getting each 2!
