    Tropicana Trop50 (1L) have 500 points in M and are £2.48.
    Currently 2 for £3 in Sains. Which means, only if all went well, £1 each but having buy two:(. (Btw, has anyone ever managed to get a price match on the Savers Cornflakes vs Sains, M 31p vs S 30p, and for that one penny to give an exact £5 voucher amount - in other words it actually did give a price match amount?)

    Would be far better, on the Tropicana, if somewhere were to go onto £1.24, or even £1. Probably best just keep this in view for later.

    I'll just say I watched some of this programme. My son had to go in and have 8 teeth out and the same amount of fillings about 3 years ago. It broke my heart :( his dental situation is very poor indeed. Not everything is always as it seems.

    My DS has a VERY restrictive diet due to his autism. It's quite common in conditions such as that. He stopped drinking milk before he was 2 :( and won't touch just water. The only way to keep him hydrated is to give him squash (as weak as I can make it). He won't eat certain colours or textures of food. That's not negotiable, he literally would just not eat if I tried to force him to eat what I deem healthy. I've been attending a nutritionist for years with him. We get by maximising his love of yogurts (only ever strawberry) and bananas and (all red) apples which cost an absolute fortune :o

    These programmes sensationalise things. Sometimes there's not always a choice. I have told the story on here before of the little girl who would eat absolutely nothing but Sainsburys cooking chocolate.

    I know that some people make poor choices in what they feed their kids on and that's inexcusable but sometimes there isn't a choice

    Hi FC hope things are improving, even a tiny bit, at your end.

    I once taught an autistic girl who would only eat two foods, sausages and Kit Kat - but only the ends of the Kit Kat, not the bit with the writing on it. Glad your DS isn't that limited.

    Good evening
    Just to let people know who are buying the two eggs for 1.50 in Morribobs that there is a limit of four per transaction. Got trouted today at SS tills for the major crime of having 6 in my basket. SA said the tills would only accept four per customer and people were complaining very loudly that Moribobs had no signs up to tell customers of the four eggs allowance. Most of staff were busy taking eggs off customers and putting them back on shelves.Nearly a riot in there so GOT out quick :)

    That 4 per transaction - or is it 4 per customer? (it makes a big difference as to which it is) - was clearly stated on the (different offer) offer label in my M Local. Seems a bit off though if the restriction isn't put up in your store, although I guess they can refuse to sell anything to anyone. Clearly the statement about the tills only accepting four per customer isn't accurate as how could the tills tell that the same customer was buying the eggs (at least if a match & more card was not being used) in different transactions? And, if it's "4 per transaction", then it seems fair game - split your shop into several transactions of 4 eggs each.

    However, not that in some stores people wouldn't have known that the eggs were on 2 for £1.50 in the first place:rotfl:. Mbuy not showing on the shelving on Monday for me (that's my story anyway) though it was clearly showing across the eggs in the store I checked today!

    If this were to work on the APG, I do not think that that restriction would be incorporated into the APG system (although a maximum of 10 of the same, and must be ones that show on msm for A, would compare to whatever they compare to).
