    1 x ASDA Chosen by You Extra Mature British Cheddar (3... £2.00 £1.76

    A v M from a womble today its 325g

    That's a good spot!:T Is there another cheese on the shop comparing vs M at about £1.75/6 though, as msm.co.uk suggesting £2.18 for one of these - £1.76 appears to be weight-adjusted price on M's 2 for £3.50 offer?

    [Edit: Actually, if it's going vs 2 for £3.50 (mix and match), though that seemed good in comparison to Cathedral City offers, it's a price increase from months ago - these regional cheeses used to be regularly on 2 for £3.00 across the stores a year or so ago, but have been 2 for £3.50:( for quite some time, during which I've therefore been avoiding them.]

    Good evening :)

    FINALLY got home from the hospital about an hour ago. DS2 dental work all done. He didn't come out of the anaesthetic too well though so we had to stay at the hospital for longer than expected. Oh boy, he is like a grizzly bear :eek: :o I'm just avoiding communication where possible and advising everyone else to do the same! :rotfl::rotfl:

    ........and I missed the crisps coupon :mad: Oh well.

    No chance of catching up so I hope everyone is well and has had a good day. Apparently it was scorchio here :cool:

    1. Yes.

    2. R Whites were off msm for some time, but have now returned. They shouldn't be a trigger, but should compare £2.00 vs £1.00 (or from £1.50 adjusted if bought on mbuy). However, we have had it before - it happens very rarely but has not been unknown - where an item on msm.co.uk has failed to appear and thus not refunded. The Nestle Smarties cones, when they were a trigger, over a year ago, were on msm.co.uk but still failed to appear.

    Maybe you can buy the R Whites lollies and then tell me if they compare vs Morries at £1. I'd get an extra item just in case they are a no-show, although I suppose if that happens, it's not a complete disaster as the Twisters would then compare from £2:D.

    I'd have been inclined to wait till the Twisters were £1 elsewhere - but is the Shopitize giving 45p or more? (The difference between 10% cheaper than £1.50 to 10% cheaper than £1.00;).)

    The voice of reason as always, I hope you were about and could figure this out.

    I think this is the cheapest price of twisters - £1.50 a box according to the nice mysupermarket graph, don't think they have ever been £1

    But now I am thinking it might be better as a
    sada v morrisons
    list with
    r whites £2/£1
    twister £2/£2
    scan meatballs £2/£2

    but that's only 3 items and its always the fillers that ruin my sada v morriboibs shop. Its a pity about the bikkies not working now ...

    FC, hope he recovers soon, once the anaesthetic wears off, poor thing.

    Looks like £1.50 is the cheapest for Sainsbobs. The Twisters have been £1.00 for Morries on at least two periods in the last six months. I wouldn't trust these price graphs - they don't always seem accurate to me. (They seem, when something goes on 'savvy buy' in the store to show that as going down to the price really low and every other price over the months to be much higher - even when I know, for a fact, that they have been at that 'savvy price' recently before.) I wouldn't go vs £2 on the Twisters at M! It'd be £1.50vs £1 (assuming the R Whites pick up M price) and £1.50vs £2 on the Twisters - thus 30p APG. Rather than £3vs £2.50 S = 75p APG. Assuming R Whites appear.

    I can't see Scan Meatballs vs M at £2, I have £1.99 for both M and S on msm? I'm pretty sure that some other much larger pack of Scan has been on bogo'f' in M before, only available in M, making that more than half the price. However, ignore me as I am very pedantic!:D:rotfl:

    What fillers are you thinking of using vs M? Get advice from the master:D in advance and I can probably tell you whether you should be risking them vs M.
