    Ok, so I did the following HE shops in A earlier. All were the 400ml shampoos and conditioners that are £3.79 each, 2 for £4 where the multibuy does not show on A.com or msm.

    I think the A v M gives a small profit for every 4 bought and I think the A v W costs around 2p for every 4 bought, but it is late and I will leave all the complex calculations up to aau1!!:D:D

    Shop 1 v M (although W is not far behind)
    1 x Herbal Essences Ignite My Colour Acai Berry & Silk... £3.79 £1.89
    1 x Herbal Essences Ignite My Colour Conditioner (400m... £3.79 £1.89
    1 x Herbal Essences Smooth & Soft Shampoo (400ml) £3.79 £1.89
    1 x Herbal Essences Smooth & Soft Conditioner with Man... £3.79 £1.89


    Doesn't it give you four pounds 17.8p for each two bought, vs M, although you 'only' paid £4? In other words, about 9p profit on each. Exact figure may depend on what else you bought in the basket and whether the competitor total comparable price ended in a zero. No aau1 needed:D.

    :eek::eek::eek:

    So am I:(. Is this just a Wednes. night thing or is it 'coincidental'? Mr A/Msm-powering has no idea what I'm waiting on anyway:), so I'll just wait. Zero wombles that can be entered at the moment:(, but they'll wait till another day and, who knows with me, could be beneficial in my case if it ensures the M prices are fully updated for my shopping. Sorry I'm being selfish:( - let's hope it's good for everyone else in the event.:) (Fingers crossed.) x
