Right, I am here. Way late again:( - I've not only just come back from M - that was finished hours ago - instead because others in the family wanted a meal out again and, as usual, I relented. I must confess:o:o that we end up eating out quite a lot and therefore just totally ruining this money-saving:( - you only have to pick up a packet of crisps and end up paying more than the price of a 22 pack multipack! We didn't, fortunately, but just a point I'm making.
As for the M prices, I was going to say I don't know how I do it! I'm still working off a version of my list from over a week ago together with my own handwritten amendments, so having to check against all of that but, somehow, I manage it. I have details of all the manoeuvres up and manoeuvres to reveal on the M list later. I don't have the headline items at the moment - oh go on then - one I can remember - the Wyke Mature cheese, from the counter, is at £4.50/kg. Me as another mouthpiece of advertising for Mr M again:rotfl::((:rotfl:). I don't have many headline details at the moment as it seems ages ago since I left M now, but I'll see what I can find.0 -

My shop from much earlier today compared slightly better on the Sanexes vs M, but I got what I was looking for vs Sains:cool::
Old site
1 x Sanex Dermo Moisturising Dermo Oils Normal to Dry ...£3.19£1.50
1 x Sanex Dermo Lactoserum Sensitive Skin Cream Bath (...£3.19£1.50
It's the NSpa Body Massager that's not on msm. You know, even if that gets onto msm, I don't know if that classes as a grocery item: it would be pretty good if it is a non-grocery item as, as long as it remains in the mix and match and prices are favourable comparison elsewhere, it would remain good to go. I bet it classes as grocery:rotfl::(.
Comp vs M:
1 x Sanex Dermo Moisturising Dermo Oils Normal to Dry ...£3.19£1.49
1 x Sanex Dermo Lactoserum Sensitive Skin Cream Bath (...£3.19£1.49
Sometimes you can't always manage the best comp. and make do with the best you can get! But it's just typical though:( that these are now likely to get even better:D. They are now each "Save even more" £1.39 at M. Obviously needing to wait a short while for APG, hopefully, to catch up. I've not bothered with all the details of the Sanexes vs M - it would have slowed me down quite a bit - if I have not already now been slowed:(:rotfl: - as they were 'better than free' at one point so not collecting details now:wall:. Maybe there is a way of ones being better than free that can be found - but you'll have to rely on what msm.co.uk about M prices and stock there:cool:.
The Wholemeal bread (which returns N/A vs S. because of a misdescription online) is also no longer comparing against us at the moment:
1 x ASDA Smartprice Medium Sliced Brown Bread (800g)£0.40£0.44
(Vs M)
However, be very careful as this could soon revert back to the erroneous 50p for M for all we know!0 -
