    Hi guys,

    I am just wondering if I'm getting the hang of this or not :D
    So, assuming I work my shop so the whole thing is not 10% cheaper than Morrisons, it will calculate the amount I get back for items that are included in the APG?

    From the list on the first page, for example,
    Fairy Non Biological Laundry Liquid - 40 Washes (2L)£6.00 £6.00

    Does this mean I would get £5.40 back for that item?

    And is the big list on the first page of items that are always in the APG?

    Sorry for being such a newbie :o

    Ah!:eek: I see this is an extract from my list, and not an APG comparison.

    It could return vs N/A, vs £6 for M or vs anything else. Or vs £10:eek: for M if they haven't picked up the M offer properly! It should return 60p APG. Whether or not it will I don't know.

    Bear in mind this specific product is also £6 at T at the moment and is much safer vs T, so may do a comparison Avs T instead.

    Otherwise...:eek::eek:
    If you want to play risky(:rotfl:), I'd go for the Comfort Pure 3L (make sure it's the Pure as only that one is £3 in M - all the others are £6:rotfl:) at [Strike]£6.11[/Strike] A vs £3 M. Boo:( - A have put their price down to £4, so £4 vs £3 maybe not that risky. Or - maybe now it is more risky - £4 A vs £6 M full price picked up in error!

    Would have been real good at £6.11 vs £3 on a £25 online shop and, if it worked, giving £3.41 back. (Not a glitch, £3 M price just a good price.) Now, at £4 in A, if it works, you have an extra £2.11 to find:( to get to the £25 (was previously £6.11 towards that, now just £4) and so now have to spend on something else - that you would not have needed to buy had A kept its price up - and only gives £1.30:(:( back if it goes well. :mad:Dislike it a lot ("hate" is too strong a word;)) when they bring the prices down! Hopeless, waste of money on £2.11 (or probably slight more) item at A that now will not refund its entire cost - unlike the fullness of £2.11 being refunded onto the APG if the Comfort when it was £6.11 had compared right.:mad::mad::rotfl:

    Whilst in QVC I was tempted to get you some EMUs but not quite cheap enough for us yet....

    At the moment the Mini Stingers (my all time favourites ) are about £39

    Last year I paid £29 - will hang on a bit longer for spring to appear & they will want to clear the 250 pairs of EMUs cluttering up their shelves ;)

    No details of the M prices from today - they'll get done on the list when they're done! Instead I was going to post a big rant about M - but haven't even got time for that now(:rotfl::rotfl:).

    Having to go out - it's our 'evening meal night'. Beggars always choose a Wednesday:(:rotfl:.

    Really fed up of M:mad::mad: - but I'll probably post about that later, so that should be fun:D. :(:rotfl:

    Not really much to say, but I'll add new items later. All info. safely stored (I think). I think I've now crossed off what's expired today in M (may, or may not:rotfl:, work on the APG until tomorrow morning, depending on whether it's already working or not) - the own label individual pies I think are no longer on mbuy (they were a story in themselves as well - no doubt, I'll tell later;)). Goodbye for now - I'll return, you won't be out of the loop!:)

    Just going to check (I have one half hour) whether any 'usual Wednesday thing' in A, as I'm out of the loop again, on that, as always...:D:rotfl:

    Bye!:wave:

    ASDA Chosen by You Sweet Piccalilli (485g)
    97p v 15p in Morrison's,
    Krakus Pork Knuckle (300g)
    £1.78 v 50p in Morrison's


    don't know if it will work but might be useful for someone.

    Are you copying from my list? Nor do I. The Pork Knuckle has gone totally OOS in all my stores today, despite appearing in one at 50p on Monday (took them a while - had full price SEL there for some time, when it wasn't - but again...let's not get onto my rant right now). The Sweet Piccalilli is still 15p in M. I hope it picks that up on the APG. I do think it will compare very badly M vs A on a Match & More shop, so don't buy it with the biscuits!

    Morning everyone. Hope you're all warm and dry.

    Pelting it down here in Pudsey.

    Biscuits are still showing reduced to 50p at Asda so glitch will still work hopefully. Just need weather to ease.

    No glitch - they'll compare correctly to A's 50p price and give you M's advertised 500 points offer.

    Unless they glitch and fail to give the More points, like some of mine may have done yesterday! I do not want a glitch to happen on these biscuits. I want the promised 500 points each and the correct price comparison. That's exactly the scheme working as advertised! I ended up with a flamin' glitch:mad::mad: - not enough More points!:rotfl: Seemingly.
