What is Givaudan ?????

whatever it is I need to join it

You need to be a female...they seem to refer to everyone as a lady because its a french company and things get a little lost in translation sometimes


There is a seperaate thread for it https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/4108569
but heres the jist of it from the first page


If you would like to apply to be a part of the panel then you need to email [EMAIL="argenteuil.panelconsumer@givaudan.com"]argenteuil.panelconsumer@givaudan.com[/EMAIL] and ask to join the survey panel.

A big paper survey is sent to you on joining and after every year of membership that you have to fill in with your preferences and if your lucky you just may get a large bottle of perfume every year as a thank you for being a part of the panel. Although last years perfume presents seemed a bit hit and miss and old members will remember

The surveys are usually about washing powders, fabric softners, perfumes etc and you get sent a £5 Capital Bonds Voucher for every 5 surveys completed.

:hello: As I can't manage a visit to Mr M tomorrow, I've been there today (I know, too eager:o:D), so that I, and hopefully you, won't be caught out by anything suddenly turning out to be miles cheaper for M and we've put it on the 'wrong' comp.

Just a quick hour round the store to cross-check on m.com vs msm next, so that absolutely everything will be on the right list, in the right place and in its proper order:D and completely absolutely perfect (won't it?:rotfl::(:eek::D). I found that my alternative Mr M, even in the rush hour, is only 10 minutes from home:eek:. There is a definite benefit though, in arriving before everyone else has arrived back from work and before the street has filled up with cars:T:beer: (I can get the beer in, you see, now I'm back at home). Some items needing removing off Tvs A and Svs A onto Avs M, as M turns out to be cheaper. (As Svs A, a few days old, appears not to be letting me edit the post without losing information, I may well repost it and delete the old place once I finally get to taking the items off.)

As for Tvs A, and doing the Cadbury Caramel puddings £1 vs A N/A, the 'advice' has now changed and this is being removed, except in Northern Ireland, as it's now the Cadbury Chocolate Sponge Puddings at £2 in T (vs M £1)! Or maybe (not Northern Ireland) some Kipling Puddings, lower weight (85g each as opposed to 100g each) on Avs M and 10%.

N.I. can now skip to the nearly very end of this post (end of last but one paragraph).
Everyone else, stay tuned!

The above was hardly the most significant:rotfl::D.

Regarding the Frijj milkshakes having been 50p in Mr A...
Frijj milkshakes now 45p for M:rotfl:. So it may be better to buy them now the price has gone up in A rather than the expensive previous 50p!:rotfl::rotfl::T:T Told you not to go for 50p ones!:D But resist, resist for at least a few days, in order to allow the APG to catch up (particularly as I'm a day 'early').

Only a few mentioned items here, as I'm going to concern myself with getting the whole onto MAPGshop list and TvsMlist. Branston Beans 4 pack £1.19. I Can't Believe It's Not... 1kg continues to be £1.37. There are some Pepper whatever they're called and some Chicken Fajita 75g pastes in Mr M for 10p:T. To be checked to see if comparable, otherwise that's a "buy in M". They're the 'NUME' own brand.

Trimmed Leeks will go onto Avs M (rather than pricematching Tvs A) - M at £1, although A was down to 75p earlier. Quite a few fresh veg. stuff for me to remember or find again.

Robinsons 1L at 74p (certain ones), Coke Zero 1.5L 84p, Ye Olde Oak Ham 300g at £1 (so that's Avs M, if M's product has been picked up on the APG yet as this is a new item in Mr A). £1 for 300g is better priced than T Eday value. But Ye Olde Oak Bacon Grills and Luncheon Meat 300g on £1 bogo'f' for M, so that's 50p each for two (or for one each). Love Hearts 4pk at 60p in M (believed not to be stocked by either T or A), considered good value when single packs at 25p/30p elsewhere.

Crunchy Nut Cornflakes 750g at £1.57 in M (same price now as T), but I'd wait to see results of Avs T shops done from yesterday onwards and seeing from those what M is returning at.

Heinz 4 pack tomato soup apparently continues at £1.69. (Again, better per can than the individual 50p A ones earlier. 50p is an expensive price.)

The SMA individual toddler milk at cheaper than normal in Mr A (thus Tvs A) - I advised see if some other size was still on mbuy (2 for £1.50) for Mr M. There is indeed some other ones on 2 for £1.50 in M, but reason why I couldn't find them on m.com - they are Hipp ones rather than SMA. They'll be added to my basket.

Hopefully we'll be comparing against the best price. A couple of comp. results on here (or the previous thread) I noticed results that posters were happy with (on vs T?) but they caused me to think M is cheaper. One of them was the 4 pack Heinz tomato soups - although I didn't put them on my last Avs M shopping itself as I didn't want to risk £3.44:eek: vs £1.69. I don't know whether M's price was available on the APG. Another item was also cheaper for M than T - can't remember what that was now.

Anyroad.. Mentioning of the Frijj (not the Incredibles versions btw) being better vs 45p now than the straight 50p earlier, so it would be better to go Avs M (assuming M is compared to at 45p), reminds me not only did I get (with a small womble) a 50p Frijj:eek: but also I compared SP Sausage Rolls vs M earlier:eek::eek:. Again - would have been better to wait until now! You may recall (or not:rotfl:, and why would you remember it?:cool:) that the SP Sausage Rolls (which at price increased price of £1.19 for the last 2 or 3 years have yet still always worked out cheaper per unit as far as I could see) were comparing vs M only at £1.19 earlier.

They are now on A r'back at £1! So - they are off Avs M and now being put onto Avs W as an N/A filler - or just buy straight (in Northern Ireland). The T Eday Value ones are lower weight, so the 'advice' (I don't give advice really - not qualified to and all at your own risk etc.) is to avoid trying to pricematch the T Eday ones to A's price (even assuming the T PP price-matches A on that anyway).

For your information:
ASDA Price Guarantee Comparison based on prices correct as of date of delivery (online shoppers) or date of purchase (in store customers).
Where a product comparison price is N/A, either, a) mySupermarket has not found an equivalent product at the named competitor, based on its comparison criteria (see Questions & Answers) ; or b) the product is part of a promotion which makes it difficult for mySupermarket to make a fair comparison (see Terms and Conditions).
Comparison is limited to maximum 10 items per product and 10Kg for items sold by weight.
All prices displayed in red are net of any multibuys savings or discounts. For example items that are £1.47 each which are part of a "2 for £2.50" promotion will be shown at £1.25 each where the customer buys the quantities required . They may therefore be a different price to that shown on your receipt or delivery note.
