    You said you paid 22p but it compared at 50p.

    Do you mean it showed as having cost you 50p in A and did that compare against 50p in T? That would give you 5p APG per jar.

    10 would give you 50p back so you'd only get a couple of jars free if you were paying 22p a pop

    And that's if I'm understanding you correctly in the first place :o

    It cost me 22p but compared to Tosco at 50p (along with the other jars) So the APG gave me back 28p for that jar plus 10%.

    10 jars of apple/apricot wouldn't be right though as I can't see the receipt recognising them at £2.20, plus the n/a and trigger as they're all less than £6.

    Hmmm good idea, don't give him choices. He has too muh energy for no sugar in his diet. Ill see what I can do. Doesn't help that he practically gets a new toy every week. God they are spoilt.,cant help myself. My mum deprived me of toys and bought me books. I use to go to my cousins house to play with Barrie's. hmmm ill talk to hubby about the maltesers. Lol or I'm going to give him some very very small amount of stuff that makes his poo very soft. Last time he kept it in and was crying at night cause he wanted to do a poo. Even though he had a nappy on for bed time. I think one poo in potty will be the end of the fear. Ahh boys so slow at everything,

    Hi, I'm sure that I read somewhere that blowing bubbles helps when little ones are trying for a poo, it makes it impossible to hold it in...apparently:)

    Not tried it with little man yet, he's not impressed with his potty, I don't think he's ready yet, but was only 2 in June.

    Has anyone tried any of the other baby food that's on offer showing on both a and t on msm. I need some 7mnths and when I've looked there are 10 I could get that show as being available on 12 for £6 at a and 10 for £5 at t.

    Nope, dip dap (and I) have mainly focussed on 10 months for the price and for the age of my baby. I dont see why it wouldn't work though, just remember the trigger and have 12 in your basket in total. Good luck.

    I'm logging off to make some herbal tea and do a bit of work til 5pm. Later gators x

    You've lost me here :(

    Did the results page say A was 22p and T was 50p?

    In that case APG would have considered A to have been 23p cheaper than Ts price less 10%

    i.e. your APG was reduced by 23p per jar

    Hi, I'm sure that I read somewhere that blowing bubbles helps when little ones are trying for a poo, it makes it impossible to hold it in...apparently:)

    Not tried it with little man yet, he's not impressed with his potty, I don't think he's ready yet, but was only 2 in June.

    That is true. My cousins little boy had major problems when he was about 5 and the doctor told her exactly the same about blowing bubbles.... in fact i have to tell this story before i go. He was in the bath, all of a sudden shot up in the air and said "mummy, it's coming". he'd been holding a poopy scoopy in for far too long and let's just say that nature was taking it's course ;) However, my cousin didn't have time to react to get him out of the bath and onto the loo so she shoved her hands there to "catch" it and ended up with a Mr Whippy :eek:whilst she shouted her hubby. I couldn't stop laughing when i heard that tale...:rotfl::rotfl:
    And on that note I'll see you later :D xx
