    Doesn't look as bad as last time, as the sauces etc. seem to have some better-priced items in them (sure I'm missing something though) - and plenty of choice to see what compares to better elsewhere (and hoping T matches it via a PP). Don't fall for the 24 pack cokes though, as the new £7 is a price increase of £2 on their prev. half price offer from earlier this year.

    On the 48 Weetabix, do you have to buy loads? Why not just get one (no cond.spends to reach) if that gives you a fuel coupon?

    [Edit: Ah, you need £6 spend or more:(. In which case having to buy 2 of them, or perhaps looking for £3 Weetabix to be on £3 elsewhere and another cereal item that gets the £6 but is cheaper (on half price) elsewhere. I'll try and find Morries prices this Wednes. if people can wait - Morries prices on cereals however have generally not been good, I feel, last time. Look on msm for S & A.]

    [Addition: in case S is cheaper on some of these things, my upcoming list - just to let you know - is going to be Tvs S - I'll have a look either tonight - if I get time - or, if not, I'll try to get to it tomorrow, again RL permitting I'm afraid. You'll have to look at the 'fuel' items yourself though, vs possible S's, as my items are from my Tvs S exclusive list and the reverse, i.e. what's coming off the Svs T bm list.]

    T v M

    Well done on the positive womble.
    Again, I've sent an item back to non-highlighted obscurity, as I want to concentrate on the Battered Chicken Dippers. Not seeming that great value (even vs M) as Battered Chicken Dippers at A vs T's £1 recently. £1.50 price noticed in Morries last time, but considered too much due to £1.00 being in my head.

    But...v. good on the womble!:T:)

    (I think there may be some cheaper 2-pack Garlic Baguettes in M, but they're not the own brand ones.)

    Unfortunately tesco don't use msm, although worth a try just in case

    Correct, but really they (msm) are the starting point aren't they? I always find it more useful to use msm first, to find the best offers (you can't do that off a single supermarket's own website, without having them all open and doing the comparisons yourselves - too hard - that's what msm is for). So use msm, it's easiest, as starting point, helps you identify the very very good offers, then sadly you'll need (if you are doing it properly and don't want to take a risk and I wouldn't, esp. not with T:p) to confirm on a.com that the items are there and what their prices on a.com are. Just in case you've got on your intended list one of those anomalies on msm.

    Are they greenhouse ones and which variety? My most advanced are Tasty King.

    Ive had way too many cucumbers!! I don't know the varieties off hand but I have a grafted plant that is supposed to grow half sized ones that is producing whoppers :eek: and lots of them, one that's more like supermarket cukes and another that has ' lemon cucumbers' these are ball shaped. I've been giving them away to my neighbours. I'll take pics tomorrow. No ripe toms here yet, though. I took this pic about 3 weeks ago
