Elite 11+ - Fleecing a supermarket near you!

Savvybuyer

So much to do again:mad:, and I'm on a limb once more and doing my own thing. Thanks for the updates on the OS earlier and the Oil Elixir, I'm trying to catch up! Right, Morries...

Not too much change, but a few here and there (to catch you out): I think 2nd November looks like a big change day, also a few on 20th October. 2 for £3 showing on the Hula Hoops now, so I won't bother with the only additional flavour I found beyond the ones we had already had: Classic Variety.

I haven't seen any favourable glitching (as regards the M mbuy mix-up in the current collection). Batchelor's Super Noodles are indeed 4 for £2 in M and that offer on 'until 2/11' - and a lot more varieties than msm has. The Batchelor's Pasta Sauces are also now 4 for £2 until 2/11. Msm has 89p on Mac. Cheese, but they (and others that are not even on msm) are 89p and 4 for £2, so you would never know!:D However, I think the Pasta Sauces are only on that 'offer' from today and were 50p straight on Monday - so those wouldn't work on Monday's price collection info. (which we would be relying on) if so. Not an offer at all as sees people buying four to get the same price as before in M.

However...why does the obvious not come straight to mind?!?:huh: Goldenfry Dumpling Mix on 3 for £1 so, if that worked - and I do have mbuy labels now in my Ms - it would cause 33p and 34ps, at last ones of a type I would like:D:rotfl::rotfl:. 1 Goldenfry Dumpling Mix and 2 packs of 613 chicken fillets:eek:. It 'won't' work, but we can dream...

Or even a mix of single Haribos packs etc. - total 11 items (same and different). On 11 for £1 in M. Haribo Starmix, Tangfastics, Candyland Flump and Swizzels (small) Drumstick Lolly. But hard to work out from offer labelling exactly what is on that M offer. There would ordinarily need to be a mix and match as APG maximum 10 of same item. But...what chances of them scanning them 11 times?!?:( For example, 2 Chicken Fillets pack and 9 Haribo Starmix (10p each). I reckon highly unlikely to work (famous last words).

Green Cabbage may be going off on the next update - I only say "may" as slim chance APG may pick up incorrect price - gone up to 69p. 49p still on Savoy Cabbage and Tenderheart. The loose broccoli crowns, that vanished on Monday, are suddenly back. I'm putting them back onto the M list to represent what I have found; however they are likely not to work vs M - always previously returning N/A as far as I'm aware and therefore vs T at £1.40/kg. Equivalent to SP Wrapping Foil up from 72p to 75p:eek:. Unfortunately, might not be chance of beating the update as they went N/A end of last week and might be N/A at the moment so would be better vs higher price than vs N/A (and N/A everywhere else). A CBY Kipper Fillets (200g) equivalent also going from 99p to £1.29:eek:. Some older packs around at 99p and SELs still say 99p but some packs now saying £1.29 (longer 'use bys') so may change upwards soon:(.

I've therefore a bit of tinkering to do with the M list. As usual, a 'tendency to tinker and procrastinate when action is called for':(: http://rsnr.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/61/3/285.full

However, on the other hand, if a tinkering was not done, we wouldn't have had the Green Cabbage being put up at 69p and removed, so the 'tinkering' is sometimes essential!

Some misinformation on the biscuits - the Bourbons and standard range custard creams are 2 for £1.20 in M, not 2 for £1.00. So the price of 60p for two was correct, and not an M mbuy glitch against us. So, instead, I'll now say this shows they weren't the right items for an M buy glitch:D:p:(:rotfl:. My excuse is I don't concentrate on high 2 for £1.20 prices on biscuits.

Another correction. The Coke Life (1.75L) went up to any 2 for £2.50 (current pricing) not to 2 for £3.00 (contrary to what I stated a week or two ago). Sorry for the mistake. Again, I'm not normally that concerned with what's no longer any good anymore.

I've got more of the Butcher's 6 pack dog food as being 2 for £5 in M. Hard to know from the location of the offer label exactly which ones are in the M offer, except that it is NOT the Superiors. However, normal 12 pack at £5 anyway. And - M own brand dog food now on 2 for £4 until 2/11. Look's like that offer either ended for one week or has been rolled over to 2/11. Msm had dog and cat 6 at 2 for £4 until 13/10. Apparently cat food not on mbuy now - this was never a mix and match as far as I'm aware - but that's going by useless stores that fail to put all mbuy pricing up. (Jeera Poppadums now has a price in the store that had no price at all on Monday - but has straight 69p and still haven't put the mbuy offer label on:(:mad: - msm on offer until 2/11 if I remember, so I'm keeping them on the list!)

And, while I concentrate on the trivial detail rather than looking at anything substantive and real glitching, we had one of the Cadbury Marv. Creations individual comparing to 40p on the APG.

They had the Cookie Nut Crunch at 40p, which I had at full price. But the Banana Caramel, which I had, and still have in one store, at 40p, that compared to full price.

I've decided that the Cookie Nut Crunch is on offer, as it does have 40p until 2/11 in two stores I've seen today (even though, in one, it has full price in one area of the store and 40p in two other places - but maybe 'reasonable':( for the ones at the checkout till to show full price and not to have been changed, whilst the ones next to the SSs line have 40p on both occasions, they appear twice in the line). I've also decided the Banana one is on 40p until 2/11. That's what it says in one store I have. However, in another store it has a full price SEL whilst the Cookie Nut Crunch is 40p and in the next store the Banana is not stocked at all:mad::rotfl::rotfl:.

In short:

Cookie Nut Crunch
Store 1 - 40p
Store 2 - 40p
Store 3 - 40p in two places and full price in one other (but that at one of the tills).
Offer labels 'until 2/11'.

Banana Caramel
Store 1 - 40p (offer label saying until 2/11)
Store 2 - full price (62p)
Store 3 - no trace.
:rotfl:

Stores numbered in order of visit today. I suspect may be Cookie Nut on APG at 40p and Banana Caramel at full price again.
I had a choice - I found almost everything in the first store. I had the Loose Grapefruit at full price (no mbuy showing:mad:) and a few other items missing. Went to second store on my journey back - no Grapefruit!:mad: Not stocked at all! At that point, I could either go to A and then home. Or to the next M and home. Same distance home. I decided to go the next M, as no-one likely to be shopping on Wednesday lunchtime and leaving me any receipts anyway:rotfl::rotfl:. Grapefruits on 2 for 49p. So, there we are. However, the individual Marv. Creations are not on 3 for £1 in A anyway so no use:rotfl::rotfl:.

I'm sure these various anomalies in different pricing in different stores are more present than what they used to be (compared to, for example, several years ago). It seems that way anyway. However, perhaps I am doing a much wider check these days than what I used to do a few years ago.

Never heard of it before

We have several rules - it's very funny!

You can say one number (game carries on), two numbers (reverses direction of game) or three numbers (game carries on but skips a person). If you make ANY mistake you get a shot. The game then restarts. If you say 21, you get two shots but the privelage of changing any number to anything.

After a while our game looks like this:

1,2,1,7,4,8,7,8,9,boo8ies,flamingo,12,3,horse,house,manure,17,18,elephant,20,21!

Trying doing that after a few shots!
