These 3 hour waits for apg results are longgggggggggggggg

Just got mine, all present and correct. No candles in my store after SFSB's great timing just as I was going into store.

Had a nightmare at the tills - SS with five shops lined up (plus a sixth with cheaper A items in). First shop, till had a wobble and froze :eek: Two operators and two supervisors couldn't get it working so directed me to another till to put through - they "helped" me repack my trolley . Fortunately my quick thinking with cereal boxes limited the damage and kept all my shops separate as I moved items around as they "helped" fill my trolley, but it was close.

Now recovered as APGs all matched correctly .

Thanks! The butters are better than M's mbuy price, and no need to buy in twos vs T:T. However msm showing OOS at T so wonder how long it will last?

EDIT: Sorry these do not reflect current APG results, but post left up for info.
Fwiw, vs M:
1 x Weight Watchers Chocolate Mini Rolls (5)£1.00£0.65

I had a thought from seeing it - that they are better than me. I think that's a more accurate price - they check twice as many, or three times as many, stores as I do and I had one M store at £1.30 and the other at 65p last time but then used msm to decide that they were 65p. I'm glad they compare, even if cheaper choc. mini rolls available:rotfl:. I bet some of these "Weight Watchers" products have more fat than standard range other versions:rotfl:, usually find the lowest in fat and sugar are actually the 'value' ranges and branded products, not necessarily WW perhaps they are okay, can be the ones packed with an eye-opening amount of sugar in them! Remember how an own brand "low fat" product, although it contains less fat than the same own brand "regular" version, can contain more fat than a different level of own brand range. In short, check carefully what it is comparing its level of fat against if you want to make sure you're shopping savvily and getting a really healthy range. That said, I think they think that regular fat is actually more healthy for you nowadays than the low fat versions:rotfl:. Take out the fat - maybe more sugar goes in, and perhaps more sugar is more unhealthy than fat. Who really knows with the seemingly ever-changing advice and I'm oversimplifying!

And, just when I think they're more accurate than me:

Beansprouts not picked up this time!:( (49p in M:rotfl:.)
1 x ASDA Bean Sprouts (360g)£0.50N/A

To be fair, I have difficulty with those - depends what time you visit and sometimes, since the price is stated on the packets in M but not all Ms have a price SEL instead have a SEL sometimes that says "PRICED" - and then you find no stock?!? - been chasing across other M stores to find either some stock with the continual 49p printed on it or to find an M store with 49p SEL even if all stores OOS. I had that - one store with a price SEL, others said "Priced", all stores OOS by the time I visited but did still compare on the APG. So, it might be they had the problem that I had on a different week when they did pick them up. And, as for the Oven Bottom Muffins - :(those legendary problems I had with those, and I had the problem return a week or so ago, but fortunately, for me, it wasn't a problem this week - perhaps the problem will come back again next time:mad::(:rotfl:. You would have thought same store could manage to keep a SEL on the shelf - price is continual throughout and no change. Yet one day it's got a SEL and the next time they seem to have removed it - then it's on again, and then back off, despite no price change at any point - what am I to do?:(, just guess?:question:?!? Other store helped last time, but last week, it had same issue:mad::mad::rotfl:. I just 'pretended' the Oven Muffins are 49p, as they will be, until the next collection I saw the price back again! I'm confusing you by referring to two entirely different 49p items (in M). I've no idea about the Oven Muffins on the APG this time, but I expect they would compare vs 49p (fwiw:rotfl:).

Cheers Anon,

Have you ever found the 50p prawn crackers in-store? my A only ever has the baskets filled with £1 ones.

I should add that the CC/HD pickers have failed to find them too.

Obvs yes as I just posted the result ... .

They always seem to be in the fridge with meals in my local stores.

I'm being nosey too:) Why so identical but different, Dippy? In looks, mannerisms?
Told you I was curious:D (Similar questions to Tw1nb0ybs:) ... I am a nosey-parker:rotfl:)
Apologies in advance if I'm being toooo nosey.:o

Mine both have blond hair and blue eyes and then everything else seems to be different. One has more teeth ( 21 instead of 20) one is about a foot taller. 3 shoes sizes bigger. Massive difference in hands. It's like walking with a toddler and a much older child, very odd.

One is left handed. Aparently this is the case in 90% of twins. One has rhythm, the other not so. One likes maths, the other English.

Food wise it's almost as if they have an agreement not to like the same thing. Eg if I give them pasta and meatballs. One eats the meatballs and the other the pasta. Then they swap plates.

I tried giving them a new meal in separate rooms and they both picked different things to eat.

One is very kind and caring, like daddy. One is sneaky and cunning, like mummy.

It's very odd but good fun.
