    I have to admit that the M card seems a little bit of a faff to me....I have been sent one but dont use M that much even though we are quite close to one....I always seem to be too tempted by the bread and cakes to remember what shopping I should be buyiing every time I visit....so I'll stick to my shopping list elite style at A and T until I am ready to be taught the finer points of the M card
    frugal October...£41.82 of £40 food shopping spend for the 2 of us!

    2017 toiletries challenge 179 out 145 in ...£18.64 spend

    I really can't get my head around it tbh... I'm going to attempt some kind of shop this week. I may try the wine one as a starting point:)

    Well I have just been stocking up so just buying one lot of items at a time.

    2 bottles of Hardys Stamp cost £14.50 and get anything for 51p because it needs to be over £15 for it to compare the match points.
    This is £4.99 in Asda or Tesco so you get match points for the difference. In this case 4520. Then you get the more points 2000 each bottle, so 4000 makes a total of 8520. Rinse and repeat once you get your vouchers through.

    Big bottles of Comfort are £3.25 in morrisons, £2 in Asda so 1250 in match points, and have 1000 more points on each one. For example, 6 of these costs £19.50 and gives you 13.500 points all together. I know you will say I am not paying £19.50 for Comfort, but you will be using your vouchers.

    Dettol Power and Fresh is £2.49 in Morrisons but 2 for £2 in Asda so each pair gives you 2980 match points and 500 more points

    Hope this helps

    I cant quite understand why there is so little on here about the morries match and more points!!!!!!! I only started on the 23rd October and have loads of stash and today (28th) I hit my 100.000 maximum. Loved the game, got comfort and cleaning stuff for 2 years, 10 bottles of Hardys Stamp and still got £15 vouchers to come later. Am I the only one?


    can i ask how much you have spent in real money to get all this?

    I shop all over the place, whete ever there is an offer, but am loving this one. I wait for the figure to go down online the dash off to Morries to buy more stock. Yesterday I had only been home an hour from printing off £30 when it showed my next £20 were ready to be printed off. I went straight back and stocked up again. Just after 3pm today another £15 ready so off I pop, got so more stocking up stuff and £15 will be ready to print off soon. Stopped my fun now because of the £100 a month limit boo hoo. You can collect on a temporary card but you can't print them off, and to me its only fun because of the rinse and repeat.
