    Hello!
    I think a bit of a collection of minor glitches (accidental ones!) on my shopping done today - I'm pretty sure the (Frozen) Black Forest Gateau was 630g instore in A, but still shows as comparing from the 620g weight for the A product given on msm. As a result, with it comparing at 620g vs T's product being 630g on msm, it's comparing to slightly less than £2 at T! (And it's rounded down as it's £1.96825... .)

    Also - the 5 pack doughnuts: I've no idea why they are comparing to 46p each at Mr T (or why it's suddenly saying 0.77 x) - they are 2 for £1 in T (on msm until early March, offer rolled over at Mr T) - so 'should' be 50p each - I don't know whether you have to buy one of each (of these two I bought) in order to get the 'glitch' but both 46p prices aren't showing in red. This suggests it could be buy just one doughnuts pack (which could be either custard or jam), but I recall that such a similar situation messed up my shop vs Morries late last year when I bought one pack of bacon instead of two despite the glitch price when two were bought apparently also not being red colour. Note T's real price for one pack only is quite more than 50p!

    Buying 28p cost of bananas also compares vs a penny less at Mr T (even when they are same price per unit at both).

    xx items on your bill qualify for comparisonASDALogoWhite.gif Tesco

    +£x.xxCheaperSignBlue.gif

    0.41 x ASDA Bananas per kg £0.28 £0.27
    0.77 x ASDA Raspberry Jam Doughnuts (5) £0.50 £0.46
    0.77 x ASDA Custard Doughnuts (5) £0.50 £0.46
    2 x Young's Flipper Dippers 100% Fish Fillet (10 per p... £2.00 £1.74
    1 x ASDA Chosen by You Broccoli, Cauliflower & Baby Ca... £1.40 £0.99
    1 x ASDA Chosen by You Black Forest Gateau (620g) £2.00 £1.96

    The Bananas work the same way vs M (27p M). The doughnuts packs are each showing 50p for M - strangely, they are showing as 50p in black yet M is 2 for £1?:question: So I'm pleased I chose the right comp. again:D (this time!:rotfl::rotfl:) - buying them, correctly, versus Mr T!

    Evening all. :) Hope everyone has had a good day.

    Just got back from my two local T. One had no reduced DVDs but the other had loads marked down to between 50p and £3.75. Managed to get 2 x Vampire Diaries season 3 box sets and 1 x xbox360 game for £3.75 each....walked five minutes to CEX and sold them for £6 each. :j:T

    Also managed to find a Braun 3 series wet/dry shaver marked with a big yellow £50 sale sticker - scanned at £20. Perfect as my best mate was gutted we missed Mr Shoes glitch. Then found a Canon Ixus camera with big yellow £100 sale sticker which scanned for £40. So happy as my compact is on it's last legs. :T:T

    Managed to use a £4 conditional spend and 2 x Sun £10 gc too. Very pleased. :j:)

    It's very cold in this house now:(
    Good luck:A



    Can't believe the dust:o

    We had our bathroom and kitchen done last year, the dust was unbelievable. It took about 3 months to get rid of it all :rotfl: worth it in the end though - we had a slow leak from a dead pipe (giggity) from cowboy builders in 1984, that caused the floorboards and joists to crumble :eek: I almost miss trying to navigate in the kitchen and dodge the holes in the floor :)
