    Hi All,

    I've been reading with much interest and just wanted to clarify what a 'trigger' is? In the example of the Dove 3 for £5 at A vs W, why specifically is the cucumber one the trigger? Is it because without the cucumber one the price match and APG doesn't work? e.g. Why not get 3x Sanex?

    Sorry if I'm being slow!

    A trigger is an item that makes the glitch work, usually because it doesn't appear on MSM. When one item in a multibuy is unseen my MSM it forces the other items you bought in that multi to compare at full price. If you bought 3 Sanex MSM would see the multi and show that you only paid £1.66 each for the Sanex, therefore you wouldn't get as big a return as 2 Sanex + trigger, HTH

    Morning. :)

    Does anyone know if Staples is still doing the £2 off per old HP ink cartridge. Just used the last black cartridge from the Ts CC points deal. :(

    And I know someone uses a good site for discounted original inks but can't for the life of me remember the name of it. :o

    TIA

    I usually use Global Ape but just had a look and they haven't got the twin pack, only the twin XL which is £32 :eek:

    This isn't a bad price

    Both those Chips Ahoy are meant to be £1 in Morries I think. More likely the price checkers messed up!

    Belated thanks -- was making blinds all day yesterday. Chalking this one up to experience!

    Thanks Evangeline, that makes sense. However on MSM the Dove anti-p is quoted £3.59, 3 for £5 at A, and £1.62 at W, so I'm still confused :S

    Morning everyone :)

    Have spent yesterday evening and this morning catching up :):j

    So many fantastic glitches and bargains :beer: thanks and well done to all spotters and testers and confirmers - fab teamwork as always.

    1p and 2p choc chase - love this :) Of course I don't need it but that's not the point is it :D. I want to scratch the 1p glitch itch, so will call in and see if any left. We don't always shop this way out of necessity, sometimes just because it is fun and very satisfying scanning through as many items as poss before being spotted :j. And I can't imagine the day I run out of folk who welcome free choc :T

    Thanks David for the heads up on the nescafe and the ops on the c&c comparisons - heading out to pick up an order shortly. TM, I also was wondering about sub's, so ordered 3 hoping for 5 x 300g jars ......

    VT, thoughts with you, your dignity and compassion continues to uplift.

    Hope the weather is calming down for everyone and all safe, warm and dry.

    Happy shopping.

    That's the compressed version. You want the full sized one with the barcode ending 004869 :)

    Had a happy time with self scanner in T this morning. Some of the Christmas stuff was scanning at half the reduced price -- got a couple of very large paper carriers (blue ish) for 50p, pacs of 4 plastic santa sacks for 37p, felt stockings for 25p (some scanning for a higher price) and a pack of 12 crackers for £1. I'll use all those. Would be tempted by some of the other stuff once it goes down in price again. Does anyone have any idea when that might be? Do they do it on a Friday night or in time for the weekend or something logical like that please?

    No 1p items for me, sadly, but did get a few copies of the mag and intend to combine with the new soup voucher.
