    Goodnight everybody, I think I am the only person who does not drink carbonated drinks regularly. I sometimes crack and have lemonade one every six months. I hope you all enjoyed this glitch. Thanks to deedee and SFSB for all you hard work finding these glitches. I think we just have to ask our workplaces for a Wednesday glitch day off. Surely they will have to understand. I think I will ask my manager for shopping day off. I am sure this will go down like a lead balloon.:rotfl::rotfl:
    Mortgage debt 45,000. Thank you all for your help so far in helping me save to buy the house. I could not have done this without all your help.

    I got 3 Fruit Twist n 3 Red Fruit they compared at MrM n I got £6.49 back

    hth

    I'm back:). So does this mean vs M gives you a better comp? (:( as I've just targetted Sainsbobs on my shops).

    The clue was there, I think, whilst I was in my first store. SELs had straight £1.98 on all their stock (all their relevant stock that is:D) - no 3 for £3 in sight. (They did go through at every 3 for £3 though.) Is the mbuy offer being withdrawn tomorrow?:think:

    So this is bought at today's mbuy pricing and compares, under the 'rules of the game', in accordance with online pricing which is intended for tomorrow's deliveries. If that's correct, then you ought to go to your nearest 24hr store immediately as this is only on till midnight. Now, have I bought all of the soft drinks I could possibly need?:think:

    These are the rules, as I've had this work against me before (I bought on the last date of a competitor's offer but, under the rules, Mr A told me that the online pricing, for the day after, applies and therefore it was correctly compared against full price - I've never shopped in that way again since), so now it's time for it to work much in my favour!:)

    I could be wrong on this of course, I have been wrong before, but it looks to me that the mbuy offer is ending tonight. So well done indeed to DeeDee and SFSB for managing to find what I have been trying and failing to find for months and months. You've found (possibly) the last day of the mbuy offer (stock up date in APG terms:D).

    If anyone working on the floors of Mr A has any insider info. regarding the last days of offers like this in future, you can come and tell us on here (you don't have to reveal you work for Mr A).

    On the receipts it says 'COKE 1.75LT-3 FOR 3 578L MULTIBUY SAVINGS', wonder if this means that 1.75l Coke is to be included, as you say...?

    All cokes are already 3 for £3
    Ignore reality.There's nothing you can do about it.
    I have done reading too!

    Oh - I found (and used) a trigger with the R White Lemonade Lollies vs Sains. Some of those new lollies that are on a.com (plenty to choose from) - usually ones without pictures on a.com yet;). Well - if I'm doing the Avs Sainsbobs shopping now for the entire of next month, with soft drinks taking money off the bill, I may as well try all my Sains items on different shops. Don't need as many items per shop (as using soft drink bottles with them) and may as well get it done now than buy all 8 items, all non-soft drink, at some future date when there's no SD discount back off each shop:rotfl:.

    I think you need to buy in 2s if you want to compare vs the best price (mbuy pricing) elsewhere, but also need to be in 3s to get the 3 for £3s. 6 bottles per shop seems the optimum number to me:D.
