    All caught up and I feel like I should go and delete all my posts on this thread .

    In future I wont be posting much because my posts are unwelcome by some members and take up valuable space on the thread. Sorry they don't help you save any money.

    Most of my posts are good morning , afternoon , goodnight that's because I cant afford to run out and try these glitches and I just like to be polite.

    Hope the ones who don't like the good morning etc are happy with themselves.

    Im still catching up, dont you dare go anywhere mrs!!

    tweets - I love your hellos and night nights. I always smile when Poppy is waiting on the stairs for you. For me it's the everyday chat that really makes this thread. I don't post that much but I'm like that in real life too - a listener!

    Okay folks - do you want a glitchy (and successful, exact 8-item:eek:) shop vs M?

    9 items (6 different) on your bill qualify for comparisonASDALogoWhite.gif Morrisons

    +£4.69CheaperSignBlue.gif
    1 x ASDA Smartprice Irish Stew Mutton with Potatoes, C...£0.70£0.48
    1 x ASDA Chosen by You Lime Cordial No Added Sugar (1L...£0.58£0.59

    3 x Pepsi (8x330ml)£6.00£3.00

    1 x ASDA Smartprice Wheat Bisks (24x18g)£0.77N/A
    3 x ASDA Shortcake (200g)£1.20N/A
    Comparison total (compared products only)£11.58£6.89




    SP Irish Stew I have as 49p in M, but picking up very slightly lower price. Maybe a weight issue (but secretly hoping not - :doh:, that's blown the secret:rotfl: - as wanting this to be a complete glitch shop).

    Lime Cordial comparing vs M, although M's is version with sugar. Maybe a price label issue as I've seen this on the labels in some M stores saying "No Added Sugar" even though examination of the bottles and their ingredients would suggest not. A bit like the previous version of SP Brown Bread comparing vs M's Savers Wholemeal as some stores have it marked as Brown even though it was Wholemeal. Now M has Savers Brown and has reduced their weight, the SP Brown does not appear at all or compare, go figure!:D The SP Wholemeal now does appear, but then called "Brown" on the comps., but N/A vs everywhere:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: - (Don't you just love my posts and the 'knowledge' base behind them?:laugh:)

    Spam on 2 for £3 in A.

    Pepsi - enough said. Except perhaps to add that this appears to be the culprit:D:

    Pepsi (2L)

    £1.00 (5p/100ml)
    Add to list




    Description:

    Pepsi is a soft drink made by Pepsico. It’s a refreshing and invigorating carbonated cola drink, popular worldwide. Throughout its history, Pepsi and Coca Cola have been rivals but if you ask many more

    SP Spag Bolognese and SP Spag Loops both comparing against Savers normal Spaghetti in M. Or I want to think so! Spag Bolognese appears to be not available in M. I did find it again, some months ago, in one of my Ms but last known price was well into the 40ps-mark. It may be in M but not many stores - I was in my main M on my way back after doing my A shopping (took a circular route back home as dual carriageway on the way in had an accident in the other direction) but it would have been going out of my way to go onto another M store so, despite my curiosity, it didn't let it take over here. Couldn't buy Sp Spag in Tomato Sauce as that would have made the comparison right:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:!!

    SP Wheat Bisks returning N/A. M at 94p!:rotfl::rotfl: I picked the last available pack in my A store, so if you went later this afternoon, blame me!:D:D (Not that you can do much about that:rotfl:.) Woo-hoo:j, as wouldn't have been able to find anything else to use on the shop that gave me enough items (without disrupting my totality glitch;)).

    Finally, the Shortcake returning, as confirmed earlier, N/A for M - although msm has M (doubtless correctly) at 45p:rotfl::D. I had as even higher, at 49p in M or something like that, last time I went and looked (about a week ago). I saw SEL said 3 for £1, so I had to pick best option per pack and buy more:wall:. Full pricing appearing on APG:rotfl:, but not comparing favourably to elsewhere, don't know if anything to put with them, that might return overall more favourably than it 'should'. Comparison on the shortcakes as bought should be £1.00 vs £1.35, lol:rotfl:.

    A total glitch shop:D:rotfl:, I like to think;), and I bought an odd number of Pepsi can packs - thanks aau1, I've now caught up with your earlier post and amended my M list in accordance:T.

    Take care if trying to copy - as may have worked today but items may disappear from APG on different days and could leave you without 8 items.

    Bubbs cataract surgery is a very straightforward procedure these days. It's normally done under local anaesthetic and it takes about 15 minutes to do one eye. Some of the lenses they can put in give you better sight than you had before the cataract developed eg you won't need reading glasses after the surgery even if you needed them before.

    I'm not a great fan of the closeness of the person doing the test so close to my face :rotfl:I have an issue with people touching me, DH family insists on hugging everyone when we leave there's so many it takes like 20 mins and I hate it :rotfl:

    Space invaders :eek:

    I like a hug but I hate people in my space in shops at queues etc. Makes my skin crawl :(

    We had pie for lunch too, one of the free Higgidy ones. Not really big enough for two but I wasn't very hungry anyway so DH ate most of it. Very tasty but glad I didn't have to pay real money for it :D

    I can't find theses pies. Where are they from please hornet girl. Tia
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.
