    Go on, I'll (try and) leave you with this.
    I had around 200 items requiring check of M pricing on m.com. The number has come down a bit, as I remember some of them from instore and no longer need checking.

    This can be passed around - I suppose - a bit like the Grand National picking of horses and the ages and locations of everyone, though I doubt this one will prove very popular:rotfl: - you can look up an item or so and post it's M price if you wish!

    For A read M and A Smartprice read M Savers etc., also some of the items you are looking for may differ in weight by up to 10% either side (particularly the fresh meat) and others may not even have versions in M (they are here to check whether or not M has any equivalent, and the answer to that may sometimes be no).


    Needing M.com check

    So, if you are thinking of putting any of the above items in a shop, after looking on msm, these items (above) are the ones that fall under suspicion as to whether M may be cheaper*. Check m.com. (M may of course be a lot more expensive, but these items above are here to check.) Of course, even if an item isn't listed, it doesn't mean it may not be better (or worse!) vs M.

    *They have generally got onto here by showing on offer in one store or another on msm, but thinking whether or not M may be cheaper? A few others on the above list are there to make sure the items are the same, equivalent, i.e. comparable.

    This one has really got me confused :huh:

    Both my Ariels compared £5.20 v £3 against T and M

    I'm gutted because I changed my mind about getting 3 Kit Kats incase one or both of the Ariels compared better against Morries instead :wall: I should have kept them in the basket :o
