Yes, that should go on M list (and Tvs A and Tvs S), as technically available for price match, without affecting PP, now that A no longer have that size. It's same price per unit I think on T's, M's same size, or A's now larger size (although A has you paying more straight pence as getting a bigger product in A). Nonetheless, little but of reticence came over me and stopped me adding the Coleslaw to M list yesterday, as I didn't want to encourage people to buy more fillers than they need in T just because it's available there on the M list!:rotfl::)0 -
Not tried/tested but there may be another source of cheap walkers crisps?
The 20 bag classic pack shows as 2 for £5 on A.com and I am sure someone mentioned that they were £2 in M or am I dreaming this? On msm the A price is showing as 2 for £7 for me - is this the same elsewhere?
Worst case scenario is £3.60 for 40 packs, but if msm price picked up will be £1.60 for 40 packs?0 -
No ruddy cheese pizzas in my nearest T, will check out next nearest tomorrow.
I am testing a 3 for £5 glitch and will update in 3 hours.
I also think that pilgrims choice strong lighter in black wrapper and
wyke cheese in the purple wrapper might be triggers for the 2 for £5 on the cheese multi0 -

And those wee-sized (well not wee but smaller than bottles you know) soft drink cans, they're useful sometimes for me as shown on my T shopping this afternoon.:D
Yea you're right, sometimes the smaller ones are good convenience. No use paying more for a larger product you won't fully use up! (But - this can sometimes happen - a larger product for cheaper price than the total cost of the smaller one?:think: I might go for that - it makes sense, even if you throw the excess away:eek:
.
as it is causing waste and we all should, really, do something about that - although I take the view that it's for the supermarkets/govt. etc. to solve that problem and make it less likely we'll waste stuff, perhaps by giving us products that aren't too much for cheaper prices than those large packs that some of us won't use up.) 0 -

I'm watching it. I wouldn't class myself as an avid "fan" though as I don't watch it religiously (every time it's on). All in moderation and all good!:):)
[Edit: It's just ended, just as I've posted this - so I should now say I've been watching it.]0
