    M cheaper, not available in A
    (from yonks ago - will need rechecking, by you, on m.com)

    1xTesco Everyday Value Flapjack Traybake (8 per pack - 360g)60p
    1xASDA Chosen by You Tea Break Sliced Fruited Teacakes (6)90p
    1xTesco Everyday Value Sultana Scones (10)49p
    1xTesco Everyday Value Malt Loaf (204g)28p
    1xAsda Chosen by You Home Baking Crumble Topping Mix (225g) *unavailableN/A
    1xASDA Protect Anti Dandruff Shampoo - Normal Hair (300ml)£1.00
    1xASDA Protect 2 in1 Anti Dandruff Shampoo & Conditioner (300ml)£1.00
    1xTesco Pro Formula Floss (50m)75p
    1xLees Teacakes (6 per pack - 110g)59p
    1xASDA Wafer Thin Cooked Chicken (480g)£3.00
    1xASDA Cheese & Onion Quiche (330g)£1.48

    Right, let's explain this list! It's one that I had saved in msm where M was cheaper than A but there was no comparable item in A to compare vs M and M was cheaper than or same price as T.

    In short, one for the seasoned Morries price collectors I suspect! Obviously I had to replace the M items with the nearest equivalent I could find in either A or T as, by definition, the M items weren't to be found on msm. They may not be same size or even same brand in M! For example, A's CBY Sliced Fruit Teacakes (6), that's a reference to Stephenson's Fruited Teacakes (6 pack), often found at 50p in M (which is better price per unit than A SP or ones in T, except whoopsies possibles of course)! I think they (the Stephenson ones) might be at 50p this week in M (check m.com!)!

    Not sure which of T's or M's Eday/Savers Flapjacks (which I understand are different sizes) are better per unit. The Crumble Topping in M was a much larger size (more expensive straight price but better price per unit) - was found 'ages ago', may have changed in price since, check m.com! (And msm/t.com!)

    In fact I'm explaining the entire list:rotfl::rotfl:.

    The shampoos - equivalents of those were different sizes in M (outside of the 10% APG range) and better price per unit than A (or possibly better than Avs T - A and T same size and price matched therefore 10% off £1 in A, on right comp. vs T - maybe M's different size beat that?).

    Dental Floss 50m at 50p in M (has been that for quite some time - and still is).
    Lee's Teacakes - may be different size or may be mbuy offer in M that may be same price or better price than T?
    Wafer Thin Chicken - one in M is Roast Chicken rather than Wafer Thin - different size packs too and price cheaper per unit. In fact I think they might be back on offer in M (at £2?). Although SP Chicken Roll vs S (M is more expensive but not over 10%) is of course cheaper than M Roast Chicken cooked meat.

    Cheese & Onion quiche - different own brand one in M, different size, outside 10%, better price per unit?

    This list may be out of date by now, but was a list of what was generally cheaper in M. HTH a little bit!

    Well I seem to be ok now..........

    Need to say don't buy the Crisp and Dry 2l £1.62 in a comparison shop as more expensive elsewhere or the packs of Geo Sea Salt 49p they don't compare well either.

    I am now too hot and bothered to even try posting anymore of today's receipts. So you will have to read between the lines of my bilge. :p
