    Cheers Westie. We actually buy those biscuits so I'll make a point of picking up some mags x

    They have 300g packs of those in Pound and at the moment, seen them in two different ones.

    Afternoon :D

    I'm new to glitching but have been reading this thread for over a week now and looking in lots of stores. I am particularly interested in the rtc Persil but can't find any in Liverpool :mad:

    Has anybody managed to find any in Liverpool that I could place an order from please that has them reduced. TIA

    Hello and Welcome Oscar911

    As far as I know the Persil is all full price in Liverpool, I've tried in 3 stores. We don't seem to get the reductions that people in other places get for CC or HD :(

    Thanks for your reply saversue. Have looked in 7 different stores and thought I might have been looking at the wrong ones but maybe not :(

    Has anyone reached the cap yet?
    Just wondering that if the More points are not included in the £10 cap per shop, could it be a possibilty that they are not included in the £100 cap too, thus allowing £200 worth of vouchers?

    That is what I was hinting at here...
    Has anyone gone over the M&M monthly 100,000 point limit? And if so, was it capped at 100,000?Just wondering...:)
    I was looking at the detailed points transactions on the website, which don't equate to my biscuit shops (none pending) or what's on the receipts (points total still under 100k), and added up the points total is now more than 100k; but the silver-and-green wheel on the left is three-quarters full and says 'Just 1,250 points to your next voucher'.
    Not at all sure what is happening, but hey-ho!:)
    Might risk one more biscuit shop and see what happens.

    Chargrilled Mixed Peppers in Sunflower Oil (280g) were 25p on Wednesday, although I have no idea whether they have changed since then. They've been 25p on every check since at least three weeks ago though. There are some good items like these - you can find them in the "Tins, Jars & Cooking" section of the 'buy in M' part of my M list. I've even put them into ascending price order for you (cheapest first). It's not by price per g. or ml., it's by straight price. Good afternoon btw:rotfl:. I wouldn't put them on M&M shops with the biscuits but they may be good to trigger vouchers to print out later on.

    Meanwhile...

    I'm canning the M&M scheme. Not caning unfortunately, as in beating the living daylights out of and making absolute maximum use of, but canning - as in putting the lid on it and shutting the whole thing down for myself in order to stop me having to spend yet more money to get the next £5 hit. I've figured that just a couple of more packs of biscuits will help me hit a further £5 amount bang on, rather than buying later when it's all gone and getting just the next £5 - and have gone for the ones I really wanted that I failed to buy last time because I believed that they did not work - only to buy a different one instead and have that fail to work:(:rotfl:. I can confirm that Jam n Cream (Raspberry & Vanilla) and Malted Milk Creams worked on my shop today. I don't need more than the few packs I've got - they are just enough, with the others, to last the distance to September and bit beyond (their BB) and no more than that:T. That is eminently sensible and, as ever, rational shopping I feel. Hopefully, by the end of today I'll be at an exact £5 amount in points. I'm not getting any more M&M shops.

    When I have the £5 vouchers, I'll spend on items cheapest in M and not worth buying or having no equivalents elsewhere, whenever the opportunity arises. If they do a F&V, I might do a £15 M&M shop to get more, and fortunately I am not going to have to spend any substantive real cash.

    I've decided I may as well have got the biscuits for free from Mr A at 50p in effect by using a womble. That would have given straight same thing and I would not have had to buy so many. Again I would have seen the benefit straight away and not had to tie anything up into anything. As it is, instead of a womble, I've seen over £20 go out of my bank account:eek: and, whilst I've stretched it and made things good (or better) value, it's still £20 more than would go by using wombles. I may be wrong - people here have got quite a lot out of it, but, apart from the biscuits, I could have just bought the cheaper items separately in A and not had to risk an almost inevitable not 100% complete perfect comparison and therefore possibly losing money again and again (even though M may be amenable to rectifying it) - whilst the wombles would then be used up far more quickly, neither would I necessarily need to buy £7 worth of "A cheapest" goods (as approximate half the cost of a £15 M&M shop) all at once and, to be fair, with wombles, you never completely run out.

    Maybe I am having more sense recently. I did used to buy the £20 Sains BM shops and sometimes simple price match - but to be fair I did usually use a cond.spend. Yet they gave the voucher amount (whatever the system calculated) immediately and there was none of this tying things up until the next £5 is reached. Unless you hit an exact £5, you never get an actual price match until you do (and then, as you probably overshoot it slightly or somewhat more than slightly, have never got an actual price match off the latest shop, until the next £5 point etc.).

    Even at T, whilst the vouchers didn't always give you the difference if something returned N/A (or even more expensive at the competitor:eek:) that 'should' not have done, at least the value of what they gave you was available to spend (the day after) and, indeed, if it was shortchanged, was sometimes a benefit in not having to buy as much next time - occasionally T would make up the difference but always seemed to me to be the ones who were less likely to do so, in any event 'losses' were often less than the cond.spend amount I'd used so could be written off (I still made better than a price match) and on a couple of occasions I got £5 on a moneycard as a result of the PP failure and therefore ended up with more!:D I still, as many of you will know, disliked them totally and the whole exercise felt like drawing teeth - and they still have several pounds of my money tied up in the CC until they come up with a better offer on their days out deals (been waiting since last summer, no way I am redeeming for that little) but nonetheless I'll can it - I have exact number of pounds there too!:):rotfl:

    (Obsessive yes, but essential so that I don't spend hundreds of pounds:eek: merely just because I have a few pence of the next £2.50 or whatever (see, can't even remember the redeemable amounts:rotfl:, that's how long I've not used it), so I don't spend, and then have me spending a lot of money, just to try to get the next redemption amount.) The benefit with A is that it is all instant!:D I like that, it works for me:). (Well, instant except when the system is down till 6 o'clock the following morning:( - nevertheless, I can live with that:D:D!)

    I actually like M (over T and even, these days, over S) - some of their offers can sometimes be extremely good - and this M&M thing doesn't reflect my feelings of them - though it does seem a very careful scheme that helps in getting more money put into them to keep it going, of course the Elite here use it very differently - and most of you, as usual, are far better than me at getting these things out of it!:T

    I think that's part of the 'trick' though - the trick is to be able to walk away without tying much, if anything, at all into it!:D:rotfl::cool:

    Savvy.I totally agree with you.

    I've totalled up my spend this month.

    I've spent £24 actual cash by using wombles to buy what I need.I've done a few comparison shops.
    Against the cash I've spent I have £27 cashback ,£20 note I found,£5 received for buying for somebody else and £10 sainbobs gift card from valued opinions.

    This means my net spend so far is -£38 for January.

    Morrisons is a good 1/2hr away by bus so I don't want to tie the time up going there.My time is far more productive using for wombling.

    I have £17 pounds in nectar points plus the £10 gift card to use but I wont do what you did because sainsbobs is a good distance away as well.
