  • Savvy I think packaged mayo generally has a fairly short life, about 18 months stated so probably not a good idea to go much further out than 3 years.

    Cheers Savvs but I had to grab £2 worth of stuff near the till to avoid upsetting bloke queuing behind me and made the wrong grab :rotfl:

    I've gone and had to grab stuff to make up a bill. Then had to go back out again, as the mbuys hadn't yet been deducted at the till and I found I was still a penny short!:rotfl::rotfl:Talk about annoying people behind me...I'm an expert in it!:D:rotfl:

    Could have asked for something else or gone and grabbed some non-grocery items (such as clothes or car wash) to make up the £2. That said, I'm all of a faff too when this sort of thing happens. Now..are those non-comparable non-groceries a pound cheaper elsewhere??:think::think::think::question::think: faff faff faff:eek::eek::ofaff:eek::rotfl::rotfl:.

    First receipt...£1.06 APG, not 10% cheaper than Morries!!:rotfl::rotfl:

    Great news! ASDA are cheapest. However, ASDA are not 10% cheaper than Tesco, Sainsbury's, Morrisons and Waitrose, on your comparable grocery shopping. As such you are entitled to a voucher for £1.06.

    We will always issue a voucher for the largest amount, when we are not 10% cheaper than more than one competitor.

    Bear with me on the full result...just got to go and see if Sainsb. have put their whoops items down to a more reasonable price. 59p for some whoopsied bread on my way in!:eek::eek:: No thanks!

    Jam is always made from the whole or cut fruits, cooked to a pulp with sugar, producing a thick, fruity, spread.
    Jelly is made using only the juice of the fruit and sugar. It should be clear and sparkling when finished.
    (Marmalade is similar to jam but made only from bitter Seville oranges from Spain or Portugal.)
