    I cut and paste onto an email on my laptop and email myself. I then open it on my phone when I shop. Nowadays it is hard not to take your mobile everywhere with you.

    I may be one of the last people in existence but I rarely use one...only when forced to on long journeys..I can't even remember where the charger is...an aversion to mobiles ...a hangover from my old job where I couldn't get away from them... but thank you for the info..it may make me view using the mobile more.

    Thanks SFSB,Got a bit worried as some are now showing on MSM @ 98p

    APG hasn't picked this up.... yet

    Also, cokes worked great, thanks again (Aparantly APG thinks Morribobs don't sell coca cola...)

    Think that might have something to do with the fact that Reg. Coke 1.75L was a trigger that didn't appear on the APG not too long ago, so that they don't have it in the system to pick up anything from M to link back to it when they are in M. Now, maybe, awaiting 'approval':( before it has any M price linked to it. (The R White Lemonade Lollies went off msm for a period ages ago; when they came back, they didn't compare at first vs M as only just back on there. Yet, this:

    1 x ASDA Smartprice Cornflakes (500g)£0.30 £0.31

    which is a very new item for A (A had a pack size change) and not very long on msm (indeed, not showing any picture on there at the moment) has already picked up a price for M on the APG. (Maybe they've been collecting 31p for M for over 3 years, even if not had any equivalent in A, and, now, when there is an equivalent, they link it up immediately:rotfl:.)

    Compares best vs Sainsbobs though -

    1 x ASDA Smartprice Cornflakes (500g)£0.30 £0.25

    So, finally, maybe, a good 'filler' (cost more than 10p though:eek::rotfl:) vs Sains:T:T - now, do you reckon Sains will go lower still?:D)

    Thanks so much for this!

    I don't make much sense when on phone + in-store :rotfl:

    I went for the nutri bars 5 rasin 1 choc + fillers.

    I gave the seabrook a miss.

    Also just saw the failed rice shop in time. PHEW!

    Depending on results of this shop (due 12:30am) and results from everyone else in the meantime I may head out for a rinse and repeat as I don't finish working until 1am :)

    Glad to be of help (I thought you might be in the store:D). As for not making sense, it's normally me that doesn't make sense:rotfl:. Or, rather, I always know what I mean, it's just that others don't:rotfl:!

    Evening all!

    Just popping by to say hi and well done on all the recent glitches. I'm very jealous, my A is a nightmare to get to and I haven't dared to risk a c&c yet :o

    I'm trying to keep up from lurkdom, even though I don't have time to post anymore, but I'm off to the Emerald Isle for the weekend so if any T bargains could be held off until next Monday that would be great! :D (And no, I don't mean an island full of our Emerald, before the boys get their hopes up ;))

    That will look very bizarre when the essay is copied and pasted into the plagiarism-checking program! :rotfl:

    The glitches today are coming in thick and fast!

    Can't wait to print off these pending receipts and get back out there!

    HOWEVER... I went to a self serve till earlier, and my receipt was missing the ink from one half (top to bottom) you was missing prices, codes etc. Anyway I managed to convince the SA to mess with the printer and get it working again but she had to print me off a repeat receipt.

    Has anyone else tried to claim a APG on one of these?

    Little tense, luckily it's only set to be around £3 and not the £10 that followed ;)

    :rotfl: I had that exact same faff this week. I managed to use the APG after some more faffing. It wouldn't scan and I had to go to CS and in the end they didn't even look at the original receipt, tried to give me my APG back, which I had tell them 'no you're supposed to keep it'.

    Aaaaah Asda problems :D

    Aaaaah Asda problems :D

    The first time I ever spent an APG (approx £2) I scanned it, and then the SA scanned it again. BEST. DAY. EVER :rotfl:

    At the time. ;)

    Lessons have been learnt and APG's are bigger, and the best day ever's are even better.
