    Yes, key word is "Some". The more 'obscure' ones, such as Cherry, Life and Zero were missing mbuy a few moments ago. However :(I now see the mbuys are back on all of them. But - this may not matter if they were missing at lunchtime (if you buy ones that don't hit mbuy) - but this happened at dip from 5,000+ to 2,114 - now showing 5,765 (I think that's more than what there were on the earlier 5,000+ figure - would need to find the ones that weren't on under that even though they may now be on).

    I'm going shopping shortly so will chuck 2 in that had mb missing earlier to test. I'll let you all know you in 4-5 hours unless anyone lets you know sooner.

    And £2.98 for the 'try me free'?:money: Which, apparently, applies whether or not you like them:cool:. Just need 15 words - I'll manage that easily:T, might get 15 sides of paper:(.

    Refund however, according to T&Cs, is for the "cost" of the product. Now, :think:what does that all-important word mean? Is the cost the original £2.98? Or did it "cost" you £1.50 minus 10% (15p), minus £1.50 CS, minus £1.50 CoS - therefore total "cost" is - you owe them £3.15:rotfl::(. What is the cost?:huh:

    Savvy...Its the price on the receipt,so if you buy one at £1.50 thats what you'll get back,doesnt take into account any other offer you've already claimed so CS etc is fine...
    They did also give me a postage contribution of 53p which was helpful too...although not quite a 2nd class postage so I lost a penny there!
    frugal October...£41.82 of £40 food shopping spend for the 2 of us!

    2017 toiletries challenge 179 out 145 in ...£18.64 spend

    Yes, £2.98 TMF refund too. Don't get yourself in a tizz - they refund what it states on your receipt. Just remember to keep your receipt after redeeming your apg and don't bin the yellow flash Try Me Free from the box (and scan/submit the receipt to CS or CoS before it disappears.

    No wonder I mess up TMFs - far too much to remember :o.

    No tizz was caused:cool: - I "knew" they would refund £2.98 (if that was on the receipt) - I was just looking at words, the words they use in the strict T&Cs that no-one, including anyone who ever writes them, ever pays any attention to.

    That's so true of the 'rest of the world' so so often - they make their own rules, then totally ignore them:huh: - or, even more to the point, people often do the complete opposite to the supposed 'rule' that they have supposedly set out. It makes no odds - people generally fail to notice... just about everything(:rotfl:)!

    Take the maynards back to Tesco for a refund :D
    Joke obviously!

    No, I'll just have to take the hit :o I don't even like wine gums only thought they'd be a useful filler. :(
    I then compared this shop on the 'new' system and APG was 75p!!! :eek:
    Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.

    So, there you go: my rant for the day - most drivers (very probably in excess of 99%) drive too fast and too slow.

    As for my gentle braking, I'm right there too as that's what you're supposed to and it is also MSE (had to work that one in;)).
