    :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.

    Ohhhhhhhhhh im a mis informer, sorry:o:o was anchor not bacon:(:( hope no one has got any for morries:eek::eek:

    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.

    Thanks, yes i did and yes it is i got mixed up with the bacon:o:o shoot me now:rotfl:

    We have thunder and lightning now :eek: The lightning is bright enough to make me jump out of my skin in daylight!

    I'd no sooner read this than I hear the thunder outside. I think we're at the east side of Surrey compared with you
