    I take it the 'wombler' who wrote this article hasn't shopped at Ts for quite some time :eek: :rotfl:

    And apparently at As we get the difference plus 1p :eek:

    Hope all are well. I'm snowed under with work and life and have missed a day.....or maybe 2.

    Finally, there are some Apricot punnets in M at 99p - they won't compare from A, they never do!(:rotfl:) - and, rather unusually, they are now 325g rather than the previous 300g of when they were in store many months ago. A's (assuming A have what they had before) is bigger and still within 10% of 325g just the same as within 10% of 300g but, either way, I very much doubt the products will compare.

    Savvy, there are some 320g Apricot punnets in A at 77p, so that's a rubbish idea:p.

    :oI've changed the M list. So, [Strike]M vs A instead then for 99p vs approx. 78p. At least I was right that they were a "buy in M" - I just omitted to mention "on a comparable shop vs A":D. Probably, [/Strike]just buy in A. I wouldn't risk them on Avs M though, despite what I said above:rotfl:.*

    :hello:Did I really see some 230g Jelly Babies (A own brand) at 49p instore? Showing 85p on msm, so, maybe 11:rotfl: vs T. Works out at about 17p back on the first ten:eek:, so 32p for ten plus 49p. Assuming it is indeed the right product instore in A. :eek::eek:£3.20 as having to buy ten, plus 49p! Plus the cost of 7 more fillers - not quite looking that good after all:rotfl:.


    *The Apricots punnets do not appear on be online, so they wouldn't even appear on the APG, not even count as an item. As they are not on a.com, I think they won't work on M M&M either.
