That would be weird. And probably a Channel 5 special.

Ms should be updated to that schedule, but as we have found they are not very reliable - for example, the Heinz beans 4 pack have been on offer for 2 weeks and still not picked up. You would expect at a minimum they could get the offer prices off Ms website and put those in alongside any instore collections.

Roll on Ms going online in a few months as we can then hopefully start getting some more reliable Ms prices into MSM (we have reliable prices on this thread thanks to Savvy ... in fact their price collectors could just read Savvys lists ).

Glad to be reliable!

You're right - as only I know what I truly mean! But, trying to edit that 'own explanation' now, in order to ensure it is absolutely clear and unambiguous...:mad: (without causing further confusion by waffling on...).

You'll see I've now added a bit after to explain what I meant by "all APG results" (original emphasis). After three attempts, finally I settled on the version as it now is. I meant "all" literally. Not just vs M results, but all APG results. (I know that's what I said - but even so, could have thought I just meant all M comp results.)

I'm sure it's all clear (..as mud..:D) when you read the original (as amended!) post.

Alright...altogether on this now...


Good-nnnniiigggghhhtttttttttttttttttttttt!!!:D

Stop worrying savvy bunny. if people want the info, they will take the time to Wade through your comprehensive posts. Every regular poster here is used to doing so and is also grateful for the tireless effort you put in.

We all love you just the way you are and there's no need to worry about making the valuable info you post any more accessible.......I personally love getting my waders on when you post a biggun

I don't think there's a single person here that would change you or the way you present your info

No, that's not how its done. The prices are collected only in-store. (Indeed, M's website may be pretty generic on some items and not give the exact versions, so you couldn't identify the precise product that needed a price in the APG.)

As for the Heinz beanz multipacks, I can't see any obvious reason as to why they have been 'missed'. I at first (first week they went on offer in M) thought it could be a "Reduced Salt version"/"non-Reduced Salt version" issue, but I can't see anything obvious over that. Otherwise perhaps they don't have the weight, or maybe there's been a recent weight change? But even there, even if it's out by 5 or 10g per can, would still be within the 10% weight range? If weights change, sometimes it can then become a 'new' product and be queued up awaiting Msm's confirmation that it is indeed the same item. The Savers Yorkshire Puddings, that have gone from 12 pack to 15 pack (now matching A's pack size) are still returning N/A this week. Meanwhile, I've been leaving the Heinz off the M list and not bothering with its price as I know it's not comparing on the APG.

The quickest way would seem to be to inform A that you've noticed (doesn't affect your comp. as you were buying vs someone else than M) that Heinz Beanz are returning N/A for M, as well as the SP Yorkshire Pudding and the SP Brussels Pate Chubb, despite you noticing M have equivalents of all of them (namely, the same Heinz Beanz multipack, the Savers Yorks Puds 15 pack, and M Savers Liver Pate Chubb). A will then take this up with Msm - and hopefully this will encourage the products to be matched up a little sooner. Many thanks!!

(As far as I can tell (which isn't very far:(), A don't want these errors. They want to have accurate and as complete as possible information about the prices of their competitors.)

Lango, may I ask where you are getting Snakes from, thought you shopped in H**ts Cr**s and have never seen them in there, not even a space on the shelf?
Have located them, but further to travel.
