    Oh balls!:( Yet more non-savvy buying from myself: I got rid of an APG recently on some Surf 50 wash washing powder. I saw them in the foyer of one of my As, with the stock going down and I thought the £5 offer might be ending soon.

    Just lost nearly a quid by doing so:eek:, as I notice Mr T is now (from tomorrow/day after tomorrow on APG?!?:think:) £4.50 on the Surf 50 Lavender washes(:(:( from my point of view, but possibly :D:j:j:T from yours). Appears to be very short term offer (until 29/4, in other words even before that) and lowest non-RTC price I've seen?

    Looking at the rest of the "Savvy buys" on msm though - I think I'm going to stop shopping entirely in the major supermarkets or in the so-called 'discounters', as they're all way too expensive on almost everything!!:eek::eek:

    Alright - I might succumb to some well-chosen travel deodorants:rotfl:.

    We bought a lamb butchered last year 22kg for about £90 but lamb was cheap at the time. Not sure what the price is now.

    The red leicester worked on Monday, I think it has been fixed

    1 x ASDA Chosen by You Mature Grated British Coloured ... £2.00 N/A
    1 x ASDA Chosen by You Grated Red Leicester Cheese (25... £2.00 £2.00

    The Red Leicester still worked here ie 2 for £3 at A's not being recognised by APG :)

    The problem, as Rhosy said, is the Coloured Mature - only the ordinary Mature compares to T's.

    The T's 2 for £3 is no longer on MSM (ended today). Will likely be rolled over in T, but I wouldn't try it tomorrow until it's showing back on MSM.
