    0.05 x ASDA Carrots per kg £0.04 £0.04
    1 x ASDA Chosen by You Bombay Potato (400g) £0.95 £0.05

    1 x Candyland Flumps Mallow Twists £0.10 £0.10
    1 x ASDA Protect Extreme Fresh Mouthwash (500ml) £1.00 £0.49
    1 x ASDA Flu Max All in One Chesty Cough & Cold Tablet... £2.00 £0.60

    Comparison total (compared products only) £19.96 £9.32

    That's the vs Mr T comp. surely? Was about to give the APG a big red tick for the previous comp. (showing the milk comparing correctly and everything else correct vs M), but now taking that away if Root Ginger is comparing to N/A for M.

    M £2.00/kg (though one store might want that to be kept secret).

    [Edit: :doh: Mr M - you mean Mr Muscle! I see it now!:rotfl::rotfl:]

    I'm not sure what to think, though I'll have more to say about it soon. I do wonder if the manager who asked me to leave had ever seen http://www.theguardian.com/money/blog/2011/sep/16/tesco-shopping-supermarket-prices-check-writing

    I wasn't told it was 'illegal' or anything like that, but that I wasn't allowed to do it. I neither asked for nor was given any further explanation.

    There is I suppose a wider issue though, about how consumers are supposed to be able to get the best deal (and to shop in a free and competitive market with access to perfect information) if they aren't allowed to obtain that information, or obstacles to obtaining it are put in the way (whether intentionally or not and for whatever reason or none).

    I'm considering whether to delete all of the items in italics (which are the 'buy in M' items) from the list or whether that would only drag you into my spat with M. And, as I was asked to leave, I didn't pick up and buy item ************* at £****p which is a very good purchase in M at the moment. Indeed I guess as I have no need to go there anymore to get any price info., I won't be in the store to buy anything from them again (a bit of a shame perhaps).

    So pleased to see that you haven't let this experience get you down savvy:) you have been an absolute star and provided us all with a wealth of information we wouldn't otherwise have had.
    Hoping you bounce back and give them what for:):D

    Would someone be so kind as to let me have details of the cheese deal at the moment??

    I believe it is buy Asda cheese from 2 for £5 offer (which one?) as trigger then buy Vintage or Seriously strong red (not sure of the make?).

    Does anyone know the actual cost please after apg?

    Thanks
