    I thought I had copied the Morrisons one.
    :doh:

    Don't worry - I knew what I was looking at!

    And I'm right again too:j:rotfl: - Carrots do compare to 69p M:(.

    :rotfl:Those Cornetto Cheesecake Glory packs were £1 in M. Not there now, so N/A. (I suspect they would never have picked them up in the first place as seemed to me quite a new item at the time, in M.) Just illustrates how much people overpay by buying at the wrong time.

    Ok, M list is now updated but, as usual, the bold items are the new ones, not yet on if they ever will be. Most of the crossed-out ones, now last chance!

    A feeling this time that if the prices look too good to be true on the M list, they probably are. I'm just thinking the 'headline' ones there, like the Colmans at 20p for M, I doubt whether it will work. The Air Wick Double Fresh Plug-in is showing £2 (down from £4) on msm for M, but I have the price of £1 in my store and definitely the Double Fresh Plug-in.

    I have different prices on some items to msm, which I have ignored. I keep doubting myself whenever I see that, then I go to another store or back to the store on another check day and find out I'm right! I've rechecked the E45 350g - definitely the Dry Skin one in M at £5.34. A £6.68. Said M £6.68 last week on msm, when M was £5.34. I see msm has finally updated now! I just doubt those Air Wicks today, so "proceed with caution":D.

    Another criticism of the Msm website - just because T does not have an item on t.com does not mean it is unavailable in T msm!:mad: It has Counter Pouting Fillet as unavailable in T, whether or not it is actually available. £4.99/kg in M. I can't tell what the T price is as it is not on msm! Rainbow Trout seems to have gone - just Basa Fillets and Pouting Fillets in M now (£4.99/kg).

    M now have the 32 Walkers Variety box and at £3:rotfl:. Probably no longer available in A (stock seems to be on its last legs in my A stores, saw them yesterday in just one out of two stores, but the one that had them yesterday now out of stock and with a completely different item now in the place where the crisps boxes were). Typical as A are not 10% cheaper than M, so £3 is an overpayment. Never on msm in the first place so won't count and won't get 10%!

    Some crisps are on Avs M, even though very expensive 84p prices:eek: - after me saying 6 pack crisps should be 50p or under. I remember that the French Fries Worcs Sauce version were N/A vs M on M's last offer on these (a year ago?). Those Kipling puddings have been pretty risky vs M in the past too. Think there may be issues with weight, following downsizing.

    The 450g green grapes (that came on only last Wednesday) were a definite loss leader. Now completely vanished, and now instead some nasty 500g green grapes pack at nasty £2 and any 2 for £3 pricing:(. It also appears the 900g packs at £2 are gone now, now replaced with some nice offer labelling on much smaller packs at same individual price and expensive mbuy. Forget grapes altogether (my womblees won't:(:mad::().

    I perhaps ought to mention "B"P"B"V Tomatoes packs in M at £1.29/kg, even though not reaching M list.

    Bitesize Shredded Wheat 500g at £1.24:eek:. A bit above my £1 price on those sizes. 750g vs T at £1.59 is somewhat better.

    Just trying to think if I've missed anything - and... I could have pretended... I've gone back to the pen and paper approach again, so all that last post wasn't from my memory. Ah:idea:, yea, I've found it on the page...

    Not that it's any good; would be far better if there were glitches:
    Vaseline Conditioning Cocoa Butter (400ml) and Vaseline Intensive Care Aloe Vera Body Lotion (400ml) are each 'buy in Superdrug' at £2.48. Or, maybe, slightly less good - or profoundly less good if T PP does not compare - Tvs M £5.48 vs £2.50.

    Msm has M at £5. Definitely £2.50 in M on each of these, and was that last week too (just catching up on this one - not available in A though apparently and not on any mbuy there so, perfectly useless really:rotfl: - I finally got there: to find not in A on any mbuy).

    Finally, the loose broccoli (which never compared on the APG anyway) has disappeared in two M stores I've seen - so it does now appear to be unavailable in M and this is the reason why, you'll notice:D, I've crossed it out on the M list - only now the prepacked 335g ones in M at 49p:(. The loose didn't compare vs M anyway, so it's still Avs T.

    Is there any trigger in the 3 for £4 crisps multipacks offer, that might, in due course, compare 2 at £1.68 each vs 84p each at M?

    I doubt those Limited Editions at £1 straight in A, besides the fact that, on the face of it, they're not on the mbuy offer, they're not going to compare against 84p for M in my view. They're too new and not picked up yet. Nonetheless, they are there in M, at 84p. For info. only.

    I wish the Ocean Sprays were on mbuy in A, even if it were a 3 for... mbuy, instead they are just simple expensive £1.40 price!:( Makes it pretty useless in my opinion even if some of them ever compared vs M at 69p.

    I assumed that each of your shops had three bags of wash stuff so that's 3000 in bonus points £3 and then you said the difference in the shops was £8 odd cheaper at tesco so that's £3 + £8 is £11+ so would have been capped at ten and you would have gotten two £5 mocs for each shop.if you only got 800 points then your shop was only 80p dearer and the comparison didn't work. Have a little check on the bottom of your receipts or post me up a pic. Hope that helps, I've been doing these for a couple months and it can be hit and miss when it works but if I can help I will try :)

    I see what you mean now,I only did one surf shop though, didn't know about the £10.00 limit so won't do that again.
    I may do a couple of shops tomorrow with 2 surf.
    I am just trying to make the most of the 20% discount.
    Thanks for your help::A
