    Glitching, PPs and APGs will be so much easier!!:D:D

    Savvy will be out of a job :rotfl:. Lots of free time x

    :j:T:T:A:j:j To be honest with you, I can't wait!:) It's been expanded so much, and surely I can't keep it up - I would have stopped but instead I'm now holding out until the online prices start. I won't give up the day job though - or perhaps I might, as I'd then be able fully to partake in all the glitches and make more than I lose by having to be away.

    And free time too:T - give me back my Wednesdays!!:D:D:T:rotfl:


    Good evening! If I may have a night off, or rather an 'early' night, tonight - as I've been slowly getting less and less sleep all week:rotfl:- I've read the article on BBC News today about harmless health effects from little sleep over days, so in the light of that, I think I'll try and get some rest.

    Big M list updating tomorrow night (hopefully) - when it's finished, I think it'll be the best one yet:j.

    For now, I've started to add the meal items. In going on to check the others, though, I've found I can't add them properly onto the M list as I'm finding M's products outside of the weight limit and therefore they should all be N/A. Yet they may well compare on the price proms.

    These T items may be ones to go vs M:

    Tesco Vegetable Spring Rolls (4 per pack - 240g)£2.00
    (cf. ASDA Vegetable Spring Rolls (12 per pack - 240g)£1.00)

    The A version seems the best comparison, however it is a 12 pack. I have M's Vegetable Spring Rolls (240g) on at £1.19 until 6/10.

    Tesco Big Night In Onion Bhaji (4 per pack - 195g)£1.50 may be comparing to a £1.00 product in M.

    Tesco Big Night In Vegetable Samosa (4 per pack - 215g)£1.50 may also compare to M at £1.

    I have M's Onion Bhajis, which are a 300g 6pack, at £1. I've put them onto the list for info. The A product does not seem exactly comparable, as it includes Vegetable Samosas which M does not. It may be that the T BNI 4 pack (195g) may compare to M's £1 (M's Onion Bhajis) I have M 4 Veg Samosas (160g) on at £1, and this may be comparing from the 4 pack BNI in T.

    There are T's BNI Spring Vegetable Rolls (100g) at £1.50.
    Both A and M have an 80g pack at 50p. This is outside the 10% weight, but perhaps they will compare.

    Separately there are T Indian Onion Bhajis (6 per pack - 294g) at £1.25. These should compare to the M Onion Bhajis (6 per pack - 300g), although a straight price match so giving you 6g less for the £1. Maybe the smaller BNI ones (which may have a price reduction as part of the meal deal) work out better if they compare against £1 (because of the meal deal exclusion from the PP). No promises from me!:D

    My shop from this afternoon. A vs M. Trigger was Youth shampoo:

    0.01 x ASDA Root Ginger per kg £0.02 £0.02
    0.13 x ASDA Bananas per kg £0.09 £0.08
    0.09 x ASDA Carrots per kg £0.08 £0.08
    0.12 x ASDA Onions per kg £0.09 £0.10
    0.12 x ASDA Red Onions per kg £0.10 £0.10
    0.18 x ASDA Braeburn Apples per kg £0.34 N/A
    0.16 x ASDA Granny Smith Apples per kg £0.36 £0.36
    1 x Alberto VO5 Revive Me Daily Shampoo (500ml) £3.90 £1.95
    1 x Alberto VO5 Revive Me Daily Conditioner (500ml) £3.90 £1.95
    1 x ASDA Smartprice Medium Sliced White Bread (800g) £0.47£0.50

    Many thanks for this - see, I can be relied on (to some extent:D). I've found the possible reason for the 'glitch' on the Brown Bread version of the bread. M Savers is Wholemeal not Brown, however the 'offer label' found in one of the stores I check says "M Savers Brown Bread" (and underneath are all the Savers Wholemeals:rotfl:). May return 47p vs 47p for M.
