    Maybe they're all catching up or in my case killing time whilst 1 batch of 3 cakes are in the oven :D

    Am I missing the point with what follows? T's Eday Value Curry or Chicken Noodles 65g shot up to 40p each a short time ago. Both are now back down to 15p each (still Tvs A as A is 11p). But - was there any effect for T from increasing its price? Surely, with instant PPs, this would only have added 25p to your PP voucher if you were already due one vs A (I'm talking of ordinary shoppers, not those of us near the £10 cap limit)? You may have got a voucher, of up to 24p, where you wouldn't otherwise have got one. Or if T came out significantly cheaper with the Noodles at 15p and were still cheaper on the shopping even with them at 40p, you wouldn't have had a voucher anyway?

    Of course it means people paying 40p on those shops they do that don't have 10 items. But, if there wasn't much difference between T and A in the first place, or if you were due a voucher already, the point I'm getting at is surely T's increase would only see 25p added to the PP, i.e. no effect of its price increase? (What's the point of increasing prices instore relative to a competitor - as we saw on the Noodles 11p constant elsewhere but T 15p, then 40p - when you have a price match voucher anyway? Surely that's no net effect on lots of shops?) Or am I missing something?

    Of course that small PP voucher (that you might not otherwise have got) might cause you to spend much more than that when you next shop at T.

    I was just thinking out loud (really need to stop doing that!)
    I'd have been gutted too as DH is flat refusing to take me As today and I wouldn't be able to shove that many bottles in the buggy and walk them all the way up the hill home :rotfl:

    The M list is slowly updating (obviously not by magic!;)) through this afternoon, as I'm in one of my idle (and this time, necessarily idle) periods. I'm finally putting the SP Mushrooms on there as, although they were £1.19 last year, and are now £1.49 (for 750g), might they compare vs M at £1.50 (M 75p on its 375g pack) - so making it slightly less than £1.49, or otherwise acting as a filler?

    The prices in A and M, and their different sizes to each other, have been the same for months. It's just I've finally succumbed!:cool:
