Fruit bags in A generally do not compare vs elsewhere, because A has them in weight and other places have them in number. However, that does not mean that they do not compare when bought elsewhere, particularly if they weigh in between the weight range to the A product. It's the case that fixed weight does not compare to variable and vice versa. So, some fruit bags in M for example, may not be a specific weight but may be a range - e.g. 600g-700g - and the individual packs vary in weight. Therefore, it may be that variable weight would not compare to A if A specifically at 750g (for example). However, if it says "approx. 750g" for A, it may compare as variable (approximate) weight.

Similar 'problems' arise with packs of fresh meat - and fixed weight in A (or T) does not compare to packs that vary, within a range, elsewhere. If A's weight varies and is within 10% of the variation of M's range, then it may compare - however we know how haphazard that is. I use some method, but it is too complex for me to explain it, and generally I don't find many that are/should be comparable. That's why I didn't originally have the SP Whole Chicken. But the APG did, and it's price has remained unchanged ever since in M so it ought to still compare.

Yes Chicken, 2 oil + H&S 3 for £10, APG £9.18

So wish that was £4 in M:rotfl:. Or even cheaper.
It ought definitely to be on the M list - but I think I'll leave it off 'so as not to draw attention':).

Yes I was thinking earlier (not too much Savvy;):rotfl:) when posting Mvs A, that, although I said items marked ':eek:' were too expensive A price for me, in fact anything over 1p or not paying me to take away is too expensive:rotfl::rotfl:. But you know what I meant.

I don't think it is good news that more and more people are switching. If everyone did it, they'd remove the incentives for doing so. My first reaction to seeing the headline on the right hand side of this page was "Oh no:(".

Of course now people have switched to Halifax, they will have lost any further switching bonus as only applies once to those switching since January 2012.

Not quite. I'm not as tight as that on the wallet strings.

:(Ginster's Pepper Steak Slice not picked up £1 price for Morries on the APG.

It's clearly there in M. Wonder if they will do better next time (possibly updated later today). :eek:That means that Elixir may become unsafe. I hope not - please keep comparing!

I don't have Ginster's Pepper Steak as too expensive for me at 90p:rotfl::rotfl:.
