So if I buy a pk of 20 cheese and onion walkers crisps
and a pk of 20 classic walkers this will be favourable?
Yes. But not as favourable as Walkers and non-Walkers mix and match (using one item in the different 2 for £5 offers). If SEL goes along them all, suggesting 2 for £5 covers all brands, then the full prices charged instore. Should have paid 2 for £5 if that's what SEL suggests. So put back to 2 for £5, then £2 GC (=spend £3). Then APG. Then 21p back (perhaps) on msm cashback. Equals about a payment of minus £2.22 for two multipacks (including the 21p). As opposed to ending up paying £1.30 for each pack (I went the simpler route, threw in the towel even if I'm paying) - possibly 21p back on the Walkers 20 Classic (or the Meaty if that was what you bought with the C&O).0 -

That sounds great, even without the GC
Is there any specific non walkers that we need to buy?

(Although if you can mix and match with the McCoys (15 Variety) offer - the two are in a different 2 for £5 instore - but maybe your SELs are confusing? - that could work out much much better.)
When I went to my store, I thought they'd ran out of the Cheese & Onion trigger (you wouldn't use that with a McCoys - it would be C&O and either Classic Variety OR Meaty Variety 20 Walkers). I started putting items back onto the shelves... and then I saw the 20 Cheese & Onion one, on the gondola. (I don't normally look at those, unless I'm looking for items to buy at the rival store:D.)
So, it may not be in the aisles (or it may be). The trigger route, which is simpler, works - but ends up costing some money. Better if McCoys 15 & Walkers Classic/Meaty suggests it is in the same 2 for £5 instore - then pay £4.20+£4.19, and put back to £3 (including £2 GC amount) hopefully. McCoys show OOS for M on msm but have price of £2 - hopefully they will compare on APG to that - although (:eek:) perhaps they will come back with M at £4 odd price?:mad::mad::( Either way it works out better (if everything works instore).
Now - less of that. My Golden Wonder, vs T. Is it the Variety pack or the 6 Salt & Vinegar one?;):)
IIRC it was the variety you need as it shows as S&V on msn0 -
managed to get 67 pental pen sets. Put a few through the SS and then got the SA hovering so she put them through as a multiple item. Came up as 1p each so she said she had to check after watching me put my coins in. I was thinking 'Well I just bought them si nothing you can do anyway' but she came back and said it was fine. So I went and cleared the second shelf I had spotted for the rest of them. Thats how it should be done, even when checking she was really polite, nice to get a good SA for a change.0

Believe it or not but I was painfully shy at school, combine that with being really tall and really skinny, wearing Nhs glasses and having no chest whatsoever:rotfl: and it equals having the pee ripped outta me fairly often.
Still I happen to be very content with my life
So I really don't give a monkeys butt about it.
I was shy one of tallest in class but wasn't skinny nor fat but having shortest hair didn't help mine wont grow long

Being spat upon and called names I wont divulge never have done only to my darling son
Then if you told anyone even parents nothing was done. :mad:0 -

Hi. The 15 pack Variety McCoy (with EITHER Walkers 20 Classic Variety or 20 Meaty Variety) - shows £2 (albeit OOS) for Morries. All the other non-Walkers showing as non-comp.0 -
Hi SD, nice to see you posting, how is my favourite beast ?
.
The beast seems to be doing well, haven't seen either of my dogs in 3 weeks now. The beast is in kennels and the lurcher was lucky enough to be offered a bed with her bro and sis but the beast wasn't welcomebut my mum done her best given the situation. Hopefully it won't be long before I feel better and they're home.

I read that you also found some chocolates but not good about the robofish, that was one thing I was looking for but Mr T too wise
i know was so embarassingyou'd think if it scanned on handheld scanner at 1p it would go through the till at the same price
ds3 was so upset i couldn't get them for him bless him
