I know about no mbuy offer on the KTC Tomatoes in M at the moment. I am now, only now, about to look at msm for the first time this week on them.

12 for £3 Savvy.

Just wanted to let you know something I noticed today on the S/P Sliced White Bread (800g), which, as is often the case, isn't 10% cheaper (this time than Sains.).

It may either be changing BC or else there are two versions kicking around.

It looks like the one that has been appearing on the APG is 5 054070 118344 which, because the slices seem to be thicker, seems to give you about 10% fewer slices and then 10% cheaper than Sains Basics (more slices!) so probably equates to being about the same price:( (and, if you don't put it on comp. vs S, is, effectively, more expensive than S as it has fewer slices than S Basics and therefore you get through it quicker, ending up paying more).

The one I bought earlier today, as paying full and not being 10% cheaper, was from a supermarket rather than a superstore and is now 5 052449 514193. It also seems that the slices in it are slightly thinner than the other one - I put three old slices from the other bag against it and it seemed the new one had four slices in about the same space - so, it seems, this "new" one is medium slices - although the packaging does not say - so, maybe, same number of slices as Sains, rather than fewer, but might be no 10% as may be a no-appear. Didn't matter for me, fortunately, as switched to my new 'not buying eight items' approach. Just paying full A price, as too hard to find whoopsies and person that eats this doesn't like bread that been frozen:wall:.

So, it may be that there is a thicker sliced version:( floating around, which you get through much quicker (anti-moneysaving:() but which could give 10% if you could ever find enough good items vs Sains:mad: so just work out at same price as S per slice, and a medium version:T which can't get 10% off as may be a no-appear on the different BC it has. Fortunately the weight has remained unchanged, so, if I can get this "new" one in future, I maybe will - probably gives about the same number of slices as Sains for same as Sains price.

Just make sure that no-one is caught out by 'medium sliced' "...193" (which, exactly like the other, is just described as "Sliced White Bread") if it means it is a non-appearing item that therefore doesn't count.

I have to admit, I object to buying expensive bread but SP bread is the worst own brand cheap bread out there IMHO . Too thin and dry (even when fresh it doesn't seem to be).

I much prefer T Value as nice thick slices and more tasty - M Stephensons was probably the best bread around 50p a loaf when I used to shop more regularly at M (as was neat always on offer).

Is that vs M again? Boogers (in M) putting out goods on offer at the fronts of stores but failing to change price SELs in the aisles!:(:(:mad:
I suspect a similar situation if you try on Friday. They, just about, managed to put offer label over the price in the aisle for me today, but I wouldn't bet on any of these items. In any event, even if offer label (which is not the usual red offer label but instead a piece of promotional card) is put over the price label (the one with the BC) underneath, what does the price label behind the offer label say? If it says full price, I reckon they will still get that. They caught me on some Bin Cleaner years ago (was on 'half price' in M). Apparently we have to wait for price labels underneath to be changed to the offer prices, it's no good just putting an offer label over them! I suspect, in some Ms, wouldn't even have that - they may have full price SEL in the aisle and the offer showing on the stock at the promotional ends and front of the store!! It seems not to matter how big or prominent the offer labelling is - the only place for the APG to take the price is from the BC SEL on the product in its usual aisle place. And those SELs may still say full price.

As for the KTC, I didn't know there was any M mbuy on them at the moment?
If that's the case - and it is - it suggests I'm completely in the dark (if for example msm, unknown to me, is saying 4 for £1, as I assume it might be due to your shopping) - does suggest this won't work as no boogers in M have put any mbuy SELs up!:mad::mad::rotfl::(

I know about no mbuy offer on the KTC Tomatoes in M at the moment. I am now, only now, about to look at msm for the first time this week on them.

12 for £3 in my M, the signage was for 'KTC vegetables' and we all know tomatoes are not vegetables, more morribob lies!

12 for £3 on KTC tins in M? That's ridiculous!:eek: And you couldn't have twelve of the same one compare anyway. As the harbinger, sadly, of no good news here, I can assure you that I have seen no mbuy SEL in any M store on these products. So, how would any of M's customers know?!?:(

Sorry folks - I think no-go for at least two reasons:

(1) mix and match would have to pick up all items you have bought as being in the same M offer on the APG system. I don't see them scanning twelve times to pick that up.

(2) no mbuy SELs on display in M, so APG, like me, would have to be completely prophetic to know that there was any mbuy on them at all.

I saw no mbuy SELs on Monday and I have not seen any mbuy on the KTCs today. I assure you I do walk down this aisle every time. If it is there, I have not noticed it. It think it very unlikely it is there, especially (EDIT: rant alert:D) in my 'no mbuy store':(:( that also has no mbuys showing today on a (small admittedly, but nonetheless not zero) number of other items even though I know them to be on mbuy. :(My first store today was the 'no mbuy' place - and I'm having to carry over those items into the second store every time until they show them! Actually, the first store was good on the Cling Film mbuy - that appears still to be on. Took the other one around 8 weeks to put that one on the SEL:(:rotfl:!

Flaming no less than two different mbuys missing in one of my stores today!! I could tell you what they were - the Sundae desserts suddenly lost the mbuy showing even though consistently showing still in two other stores. Er, can't bring immediately to mind the other one:o but I'm sure there is another. I can also reveal items on which the boogers have put up no price:mad: - Pitted Dates:mad::mad:, Cake board:mad:, Heat Defence Spray:mad:... same every time!!:mad::mad::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Rant over!:D I feel good:D:D:D:rotfl:.
