    That's reminded me that I have a !!!!!! code so I need to do a £25 click and collect shop - codes saves me a tenner.

    I really want another code - don't really fancy paying £15. Ideally something's that will give me the full value TPP as well :j

    Morning all. A bit cloudy here at the moment but hoping the sun will be through later.

    There's a bit of a bargain to be had on Activia yogurt I think. Packs of four are 2 for £4 in A and compare £2 v £1 with T. Monthly yogurt voucher gives £1 off when you buy 2 and if you buy the fruit fusion version it also has TMF on the wrapper. All of which makes for free yogurt :)

    Busy morning for me today, so catch you all later.

    Although the activia intensely creamy are in the 2 for £4 they don't comp as well so don't mix and match like I did. They comp as 1.50 v S which was the shop I was going for but 2.39 V T. :eek:

    Please can I ask does Asda APG machine match other stores multi buy offers?

    On TV last night I saw an advert for a Try Me Free offer for Arm and Hammer Truly Radiant toothpaste so I looked at mys fir a price.
    Sainsbobs has it for £2.50 and on offer buy 2 get one free.

    So if I bought 3 in SAda at £3.70 each total £11.10 would ithe APG match the sainsbobs offer and give me £6.10 plus the 10% ?

    I suppose its too much to hope for. I suppose it would be better just to get one tube as part if a
    Sada v sainsbobs shop

    The 33p one showing on As is a mega one and the Ts one looks tiny.
    Have Ts compared to the wrong one? :mad:
    I'm so glad I've stopped buying them as fillers, sorry you got stung snap :(

    Edit: maybe they are the same thing :( suppose it works well as a filler As vs Ts then :)

    I will, I'm usually really careful when clambering around :)
    DH is generally useless looking round the loft, he was adamant something wasn't up the recently and when I wanted to have a look I was obviously fussing as it wasn't there.
    Needless to say I found it the next day when I went up for a look while he was at work :D
