    Differences in the new T&Cs include new
    The prices you see are collected by independent external agencies, and used as follows:

    Old 6 and other references to MSM
    APG is powered by independent price comparison site msm
    .

    If they are not (only) using MSM it may make it more difficult for us to spot any issues (though that does not mean they won't be there).

    I'm going to do the M list, fwiw, the same as before. It's always fwiw on each occasion anyway. There's not been much change, as far as I can see, in M. A few things are off, but new offers seem fairly thin on the ground? I felt like I was missing something - particularly as my earlier trip to A took me off course to a unusual start-point M but you weren't to know:rotfl:! Changes seem so subtle that let me update the list first and then I can try to summarise from that.

    Other than that, it seems I have made quite a few mistakes, although some of them may be due to different prices displayed in M. The Redbush Original teabags are actually £1.79. Which is I think what msm had. They are "Save £1" and it looks like I took that £1 as the price last time. Me:( doing same thing as the price collectors did on the Harrington's Rabbit food some time back. Also, I said the Icing Sugar had gone up from the 50-odd p offer price back up to £1.28 everyday price. That may be incorrect: it looks like it actually "only" went up to 79p (still way too high of course:rotfl:). This has come about because one of my stores is showing £1.28 but the other two have 79p. Maybe it did go to £1.28 last Wednesday and then to 79p today, or perhaps it went to 79p whoever can know.

    The Billy Bear cooked meat, that I made a point about apparently going back in offers from 80p to £1, is in fact at 80p. In my first store it now says that that is on until 11/5 (we shall see, as always). It was showing 80p in one of my stores a couple of weeks ago. Last week, I found it in my main store with the £1 SEL on it. However, that store too now has 80p. So it appears, in fact it's been 80p all throughout and never went up to £1 last time at all, although the store I saw then had the £1 labelling over it. Or maybe it went up to £1 one day, back to 80p the next. Perhaps they change every day whilst I'm not looking:rotfl:. Whereas the "everyday prices" usually remain the same every day - I suppose that's why they're "everyday prices":doh::rotfl:!

    However, I did get the Italian meals correct:T (and we saw one comparing the same way as me, even though I didn't have that specific one on my list as there's cheaper Spaghetti Bolognese available as opposed to the other varieties of product). Msm has had them showing £1.64, but that's not what the pricing in M instore is. M instore shows £1.46 and, at least on some version of the APG:D:rotfl:, at least one has been comparing to £1.46.

    Right, I'll go to the updating - I'll try and completely cross through everything that's expired this time!:cool::) Sorry for a few mistakes - various difficulties being offline and then struggling with new system to try and get them deleted off.

    So, are they going to be collecting prices from T and the others now?:eek: No chance - no chance we'd ever know what they were if so!:(

    EDIT: Ah, it says collected from home shopping sites, but having mentioned "independent external agencies" and doesn't mention msm any more. (Maybe just there to give them a bit of leeway/not be specific, even though it's probably still msm as the biggest such agency. The change is probably technical and not meant to be any substantive change. But then why use the plural rather than just "agency"?) (Savvy reading it too literally and technically again:o.) (After all, the T&C about updating Morries prices Wednesday and Friday isn't meant literally as that's not what usually happens in practice: they mean by Wednesday/Friday - or at least that's what it has meant up until now.)

    YOUR APG IS CHANGING

    We are aware that some customers may feel a period of unrest whilst we make changes to our generous APG system. We have decided to make a public announcement to allay any fears you have on how the new system affects you, the customer.

    Whilst we are happy to be ripped off everyday. We have a need to make profits and this requires change. You will still be able to take advantage of our generous scheme but in order to remain profitable we must curb some of the pee taking activities.

    This means that in future we might be taking notice of who our customers are, how they shop and we might pay closer attention to their personal details. This is a mutually beneficial arrangement to make sure that you appreciate our generous scheme and that we in turn reward you for doing so.

    We hope to be able to continue the good relationship we share with our pee takers and hope you understand our need for changes to allow that good relationship to continue.

    Kind regards @sda

    Really? I never knew anything about this at all!
