    Just wanted to let you know about the post I put in the grabbit board for anyone who didn't see it.

    http://www.thewhistlefish.com/category/cards/?keywords=&perPage=60&page=1&sort=Display+Order

    Quality greetings cards for any special occasion. Unique and stylish greetings cards designs at unbelieveable prices. Free UK Delivery on orders over £15.
    ANY 10 GREETINGS CARDS ONLY £6

    These cards are fantastic quality. I really do recommend them and stocking up. It also includes the luxury cards for this price.

    Someone has kindly posted a 15% code on the codes board. Works out 37.5p per card.

    DH will go mad when my order of 119 cards turns up, but that's enough cards for the next few years:rotfl:

    Did you pay 2 for £5 for your Anchor bubbs? If so, the glitch is still working, ie comparing at full price - but now only adding 65p to APG as the offer has finished in T's.

    Anchor now £2 in Morries - is this being picked up yet on the M's comparison bubbs? If/when it gets picked up, should cost £5 and give £2.90 APG in an A v M shop.

    I bought some last night and the Anchor compared to Morries at £2

    :hello:I was already about to reply before I just entered my own receipt shop. I was going to say 'sorry to be a doubter, but I've never seen this comparing to M'. And sorry now that I'm requiring evidence, and to 'see it with my own eyes', before I accept this.

    I've just checked my own shop and bacon returning, as expected, N/A vs M. I've never seen any evidence that this product ever compares to M! (It may be that it may do so regionally, but as far as I see it, it's non-comparable and, although showing 81p on msm.co.uk, the M prices are taken instore and... anyway, I've never see any comp. showing that it compares to M and my view is always this does not work vs M.)

    Here's the M side of my vs T shopping, checked tonight:

    1 x ASDA Sweetcorn Cobettes (4)£1.70£1.00
    1 x ASDA Smartprice Unsmoked Back Bacon (500g)£2.72N/A
    Comparison total (compared products only)£4.65£4.34

    Sorry, I'm not aware of the bacon ever comparing to M and I'm not aware of it doing so now!

    Sweetcorn Cobettes comparing vs M, as it stands, at £1 (they are not £1 in M as far as I'm aware, but much higher) - shows higher price on msm.co.uk. Compares vs T £1 anyway - but wonder whether Jazz apples is part of same 2 for £3 in A on these and whether they would still go £2.00 vs 68p (and leave the Sweetcorn unaffected)? Would still have meant spending 11p more than I did, even if the J apples worked. J apples 6 pack £1.50 in T (there in case the wheels dropped off, so that it wouldn't be a total disaster). Sorry folks - no Jazz apples bought on the shopping, so not a no-show or anything, but just my wondering now about whether I could/should have bought them.

    I think it worked v M when first found

    Another Yoplait yogurt for the M list - this time a Greek Style Strawberry (Avs M), and Lyons Battenburg (220g) 74p in M. Sorry for the piecemeal, 'drip-feed' info.

    I waited 5 minutes on phone before they picked up. Then spent an hour chatting til I got what I wanted ;)

    I want a phone line suppllied by the company that the residents of Albert Square use. Every time they dial a number, within about 3 seconds they're talking to the person they needed. It must be a really good service.
