    Anyone still looking for nappies?

    I found a box of size 5 pampers mixed in with the new stock. The box is slightly smaller. Size 5 old reduced stock has 66 nappies in. New stock has either 70 or 74 nappies in. Also old box has yellow flash with the word jumbo on. New box has yellow flash with maxi on. Hth:)

    Please can anyone confirm if I picked up 30 Mullers in same shop would it still work? TIA


    they would compare as 5 x (6 for £3) lots

    as they are 50p at asda (6 for £3) and 34p at sainsbo you would get a return of (30 x 16p) £4.80 for an outlay of £12

    so not as good as buying in batches of 10

    why not do 3 shops on same till? :)

    I wouldn't try it. In shop only one 10 for £4 discount will come off at the till, CS might/might not refund. APG will show all yogs at 50p.

    From a shop that I posted yesterday.

    From a shop at 18.10.

    The discount for the yogurts were £2.37 and £0.86 = £3.23, for 10 yoghurts. The discount for the yoghurts only kicked in for 10 and not the twenty that I bought. At CS, I was told that only one offer was allowed and asked if I wanted a refund on the other 10. I took the refund.

    On the apg, it compares 18 @ 50p and 2 @ 68p. This is strange because during the last mega Muller glitch, it would only compare 10 on the apg. When they all didn't show on the apg, I phoned CS at HO and was sent a GC for £10 as a 'goodwill' gesture.

    I found a box of size 3 70s (I think) mixed in with the new stock in my local Ts this week so there's still some out there to be had :T
    I keep rummaging around on the shelves incase the old stock has crept in with the new stuff :D

    Message from Calmspirit- If anyone still has the vouchers from the T mag last year for the Sharwoods wrap kits, they are reduced in Tesco to £2, so £1 with the voucher :D

    Hi:) there's a £1 off moc in June/ July real food mag, the one with the strawberry tart on the cover. Valid until 31 st July.

    Shop from this morning.

    I bought 10 Mullers thinking it was the same offer as last time, but it's only the 6 offer in A.. why do we need to buy 10, can't we just buy 6?

    Oh, and the McVities cakes are 2 for 1 at S, but didn't compare correctly :(
