    add to an A v T target shop. but someone says it don't show on apg but it shows in stock on msm (Tosco) and Tosco for me.

    so a trial shop is needed.

    No it bloody ain't!:rotfl: If it's someone's said it's not on APG, I wouldn't risk it at all due to the significant price difference between £1.49 and 20p. I bought this a week or more ago, when it was then showing for both A and T and was, back then, useful as a filler as 18p net via APG. Approved Foods (a company that sells perfectly fine short-date and out-of-date food) was selling these at 19p for one that expired in January of this year. Just shows you how much longer this particular product must last, far beyond what I would have expected. Mine was well in date though - due to expire December this year (so presumably fine for next Easter:D). I managed to beat the Approved Foods price!:j

    It would have helped spend a voucher or two in Mr A and reach the voucher amount easier whilst getting more APG back. That's why I preferred this to the Betty Crocker one - as that is not as good being only 75p as opposed to the far better £1.49 and also it's 20g less I believe. So I ruled out/refused Betty Crocker - but now Aunt Bessie apparently not showing on APG, I would have said just buy in T straight at 20p (on separate shop by itself alone) even though being overcharged to the tune of 11.11111...% I think! But I wouldn't even bother with that either now. No use(:eek:Savvy how can you be so dismissive of it?). Next...

    Should I be wrong and should a trial shop be needed, I volunteer you zippy to try it at your own risk!

    Strangely, the McCoy's don't show on MSM (signed in or out for me) or the M's website.

    I've been refusing to buy McCoys 6 pack - or should that be 5 and a half pack equivalent on previous weight due to 2g reduction in weight per pack:D:p - as, if there's no trigger to make that £1.88, it's a no-buy for me. Total rip-off IMO when the approximately 14 pack equivalents that divide fewer crisps amongst their 15 bags go down to £2 or even 3 for £5, though even they only if either trigger available or using gift voucher of greater than the amount I paid in the first place into some promotion. That's my way now! Other than that - all rip-offs!:rotfl:
