    Thanks guys :) I was just people watching and I thought I can't let this go personally.

    I agree that adults can look after themselves. However I would hate someone coming up to me while I'm typing in my Pin in the ATM! :eek::eek: I get paranoid enough :o that's my personally space and I did notice one lady who completely refused him and walked off quite angrily.

    Hello again!!:)

    Yes they are £1 also in M:D. I knew that but not considering £1s on only 425g to be any good, so not getting details anymore, unless there's a glitch!!:D When it was mentioned that the 2 for £3 wasn't showing and that they were £1 in Sains., I nearly mentioned that they were also £1 in M but, because we don't know whether or not M will return with pricing, until confirmed (as now done on those two versions above), I decided best not to get you risking more, as you could see what was vs Sains. on msm. Sometimes, when M is price-matched to other competitors of A, I leave it off the M list so you don't trip up if it gets an N/A vs M, as you can compare vs T or S or whoever at the same pricing anyway.

    For example, Wilkinson Sword Hydro 3 Razors are £3.24 in M (last week and this) but have not been added to the M list as they are also £3.24 in T and in S. If anyone does think worthwhile buying vs T or S and has a positive result for M though, I will put it on the M list (if you let me know...!!:D:rotfl:) or, for what's it worth, if wombles come back with it and the M price.

    Ok...why is it always me???:mad::mad::( Just got here, through substantial rain, and now being called out to go and pick family member up and bring them back here. Uuuhhhh!!!:rotfl::rotfl:

    So..I'll be back in about an hour!! (Tsk, tsk!:rotfl:)
    Was just about to post as well and tell you of small shop womble. They have bought some Veetee Rice:j:j. I like it - bought it £1.00 when cheaper in M (let's hope the one:( times 3 that they bought gives a comparison to M). Needing the £1 biscuits to be of help - hoping they are the Fox's ones at cheaper price in M rather than others higher priced. They bought a 50p cucumber though:(.

    Oh - the time has clicked and I can enter it now!

    (And then disappear:( and have to come back.)

    could you link me to where you got this info please, as I have 2 more shops in the pipe line :(

    I did claim before the next shop. but results not in.

    Do you mean you have claimed but your vouchers haven't come through yet? If so, that should be ok. As long as you claim before you do another shop.

    Incidentally I have only ever had vouchers come through on Tuesdays, no matter what day Ive shopped. Is it possible accounts are only updated with vouchers once a week and that's why they say up to 7 days? It could just be a coincidence......just saying :)

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Been sent a £5 off when you spend £40 ecoupon as a result of my C+C wine shop at Ts earlier in the week. They must have gone by the price before the half price offers kicked in. Lovely!

    Anyone have any suggestions on how best to use it? I've also got a £5 off £40 with T Direct
    Debt free 6th December 2014 :)

    regardless, it's wrong too

    It should say "MSM" as we all know ;)

    I wonder what happens when there are differences between MSM and MSL (or indeed why, if the app is supposed to be a reflection of the website)? Where As is concerned, does the information on the A pricing go direct from A.com or from A to MSM and then into the APG computer - I also wonder at what point in the day price A on MSM is frozen and sucked into the APG?

    I don't "think" we have managed to narrow it down when for example multis disappear off MSM and how long it takes for this to be reflected in the APG (or indeed if they are as we know some do and some don't)? Have we noticed if they disappear off A.com as well? I am sure if we could work this all out it would make our lives a lot (even) easier. :cool:

    According to MSM:
    We update prices and special offers continuously and at least once a day.

    Acccording to APG
    Prices are updated on the APG by 12pm each day (except in the case of M prices, which will normally be updated twice a week on a Wednesday and a Friday – see condition 16.2 below). If you perform a Check prior to 12pm, prices may not have been updated on the APG yet. In exceptional circumstances prices may be updated after 12pm. In this scenario prices reflected on your Check will be the prices of the previous day.

    I see it says generally BY 12 so could be at any point before then... but they also reserve the right for it to be later ... and we are not sure exactly when even when they have, so no further forward :think:

    I feel sure that one of them used to say by 9am/10am?

    Note also I think it doesn't take into account GMT/BST, so it can be 12 or 1 depending on when the clocks change (this Sunday BTW) as my APG results have been an hour out on the price comparison pages.

    I need to stop thinking and go shopping :o

    But how much are they individually in A?:(


    Just quickly mention, turning to general shopping, there are some good offers elsewhere - such as 50 pack Persils at £5 in T, the magic 10p per wash!:D:D:) That's a stonka!:rotfl: £4.50 via APG vs T, nine pence a wash!:):)

    Better not be jumping around though (not me anyway, due to the below).
