would you complain to T's or go straight to Jacob's (United Biscuits) ?

Go to Jacobs - its a manufacturing/packing fault and nothing really to do with Tesco. I know Tesco sold them to you but they couldn't have known what was inside (or not!) the pack so its the manufacturer who needs to investigate.

Jcobs won't want the receipt - they will only be interested in the code and date on the packaging.

Ta for this, its answered one of my questions regarding the comparison price for j20.

Are any of the normal Sada v tosco fillers working eg s & g, kingsmill, fish fingers etc?

I've started the job of looking at my moc envelopes and I've found £3 in APGS still in date so that's a good start on a Sada list - it has to be £10 to get free parking, so 2 lots of j20 plus fillers that compare

Oreos brought in 3 for £2 along with Jamie dodgers not showing on apg. Jaffa cakes brought in 3 for £3.50 offer along with Maryland big & chunky not showing on apg.
J20 excellent filler as cost £3 but Compares to Tosco £2.14, used £1 voucher minus 10% on apg makes them 93p.... I think, please correct if I'm wrong

This looks interesting as my ds 2 goes through so much. Why £1 each or 3 for £5 though :think: ? Don't get it lol x

This is what the glitch over the weekend was all about so (if it works)

pay £3 for 3, apg sees £5 pd (and hopefully it'll compare nicely against somewhere)

Edit: doesn't look as though it compares nicely unless it's on offer at M's?
