    oh no, in the same article I read this, and I changed my broard band from talktalk as I did not understand the cs

    Yes, some of these announcements must have been coming for a while as I had an email from Blinkbox this morning saying they are now part of TalkTalk.

    Also see on the right hand side of this page there is an article that any Virgin Media ADSL customers are being transferred to Talk Talk too (or you can leave penalty free) - if this affects you and they are not offering a deal to transfer, it may be worth consdering what deal you are transferring to (or rejecting the transfer ... and then immediately joining them or someone else as a new customer to include cashback etc ;)).

    I'm sure a £2 GC will be waiting for you on your way back if you fancy it :) (I avoid CS where possible and wouldn't for this mind)

    From your first post, I thought they had cross-linked the multi's :o - is that even a thing that A can do ? :rotfl: (I doubt it as they can't even do buy 2 get cheapest free)

    Completely irrelevantly - as, again I am answering the last post in something and haven't even read what it was replying to - and it's suggesting mbuys haven't been cross-linked anyway, I think they could do buy 2 get cheapest free correctly on the APG, if they were to have such an offer of their own instore (yet multis don't get picked up do they?:think:) but the problem on buy 2 get cheapest free is with the competitors' prices.

    Lucky you! Nivea full price in my store. I had to reject a big order the other day. It was panic stations for a while.

    Ah well, console yourself with the APG that was still generated £3.29 v £1.50 each (if you claimed it) for no outlay/outlay refunded :cool:.

    morning all xx
    hope everyone is well xx



    last month my apg total was £112.55:o thought i lost the extra but it was paid, silly mistake on my part, i meant to claim after the first but accidently claimed on the last day of the month, so not sure if it maked a difference that they did not pay out until tuesday which was in another month,

    All claimed on the same email address/account? Just wondering when/how the £100 limit is enforced (though not offering to test it to find out!). From previous posts it goes on the day claimed (not the day of the shop) hence we can leave a shop with the results then Get Voucher the following month. People have reported examples of what happens when you go over (£100 cap and claims taking you beyond this adjusted accordingly) but no one has, to my knowledge, reported being capped since the update where you can see the results from the last three shops?

    My Sains BM shop had the McV Jaffas appearing on the comp. as 150g (sains.co.uk says 141g). However, my Basics Salt (750g) appeared as a "Home, Entertainment or Clothing Item":rotfl:. Fortunately, it didn't upset the comparison as it was own brand. Got ripped off by 250g on that compared to if I'd bought T Eday Value or M Savers 1kg Salt at same price, although it is a useful item and this was the easiest way I could get the final 25p of spend needed to spend my previous BM, along with the Basics Cornflakes:D.

    1 Home, Entertainment or Clothing Item £0.25 Non-comparable
    1 Js Basics Cornflakes 500G £0.30 Non-comparable
    1 MCVITIES JAFFA CAKES x12 150g £1.25 £0.50

    In total, your Sainsbury's shops have been cheaper by

    £0.00:T In the last eight weeks, 0:j of your shops were the same price or cheaper at Sainsbury's than they would have been at Asda.

    In total, your Sainsbury's shops have been more expensive by

    £75.51:D In the last eight weeks, 10 of your shops resulted in money off Brand Match coupons for the difference in price at Asda.:j:j
  • With a trigger, two of these should return an apg of £9.44 on a £10 spend A v S..

    Good afternoon:wave:

    Brrrr we've just had a down pour and hailstones.

    I love reading stories of people using there yellow sticker items to produce meals for their families. For the first time ever this year i used our left over turkey to make a turkey and leek pie and used the leftover beef to create mini cornish pasties. Without reading people had done this and were still breathing i wouldn't have even attempted it. i was brought up believing that you should not reheat meat... even mum said that when i told her i was making a turkey pie using leftovers and a recipe id watched on Jamie Oliver... i told her he was still ok:)

    Reductions in my stores are few but last night we ran out of milk so I bobbed to the express and came back with a 10p bag of parsnips and a 16p Indian box containing samosas, bhajis and pakoras that we are having tonight with rice:)

    I'm really trying not to spend in January... So far I've used my few apg's to get some essentials spending 10p cash and I've a planned shop in t to use my one and only pp that should get me a £15 ish shop with my cc mocs and cashback down to 30p ish... I'd go now but mr monkeys took my car!!!
    I did buy a kettle on Monday as mine refused to boil but bought one at half price and used my £10 accumulated nectar points and a £5 survey voucher so not too bad.

    I'm off to make a cuppa any takers??
