    So the price instore is actually 3 for £3, even though they are stated as £1.98 each on the Asda website.

    APG based on £1.98, giving you 98p and 10p (10%) back per £1.00 bottle. Effective cost of each bottle = £1.00 - 0.98 - 0.10 = -8p.

    Correct?

    I don't do maths :p.......but yes, it's better than free

    Sensor 3 Disposable 4...:)

    Oh, :hello:. Bit of a different day for me today, but popped into an M store on the way back, an unusual store (for me) - thought it was tiny when I saw it from outside, but the entrance turned out to be an understatement and store inside much larger than I imagined it would be.

    I had no pen or paper available, as I didn't need them the last two times so I thought I wouldn't need them today. Well, I could have done a full proper collection in that store and come out relatively unscathed, I felt. Quite a few new offers and forced to use my memory! Hence my opening start - some of those body washes and disposable razor products that always infuriate me with their slightly different versions:(. It's a bit like revising for exams - when I was doing the actual revision (with my papers in front of me), I always felt I would never remember anything, so I paid especial attention to trying to remember something. And then needn't have worried at all as it came effortlessly back to mind. So those razors, fearing I would forget but, no, I think I've got them saved in my internal brain hard-drive:D.

    Headlines from today are that I expect the Clover 1kg to soon be off - it's back up at £3.70 in M:(. The Ragus that were £1.85 b1g2'f' are still on that offer today (even though you pay an extra 85p for one that I would have wished but in order to get an extra two 'free') and one of the Nescafe Gold Blend (yes Gold Blend:)) is at £1.67/kg in M. Cheapest price I've seen it go to. It's the 300g refill one.

    New list soon.

    So because the Diet cherry didn't work the other diet doesn't work (is that right?)

    Because the zero cherry is n/a, it doesn't count and your diet coke has compared full price :(.........should still be working otherwise though

    no because the cherry zero is not comparing apg is showing as a spare 2 not in multiples of 3, therefore can't compare to 3 for £3
