depends on what device you are using
e.g. on PC - a screen shot using PrtSc button, copy/paste to e.g. Paint, Photoshop,... save, upload to TinyPic or Photobucket and link to MSE which should be explained somewhere on p.1

Thank you very much for that, but I am really sorry, I meant how did you get the website to show you that? I couldn't find those offers.

Mind you, those instructions look so easy it might encourage me to have a go at posting screenshots.

I did notice the Satsumas 700g in M at 73p. But - did I make a mistake getting them as will the Satsumas in Aldi go down to 39p tomorrow? It's been a long day - as I was stopping off at everywhere on the way back - just efficient to do everything in one journey - I also went into T and noticed T's 700g Satsumas on 'offer' at £1 and thought what an overpayment it would be to get those:rotfl:. Bet people are picking them up unawares though as they are marked with crossed-through higher price:wall:. So, even if you manage to 'save' on your brands, there's 27p extra immediately paid if you picked up the Satsumas in T! (I wouldn't buy 700g of Satsumas at £1 anyway:D - so, about my non-buying of T Satsumas, it's :j:T - well done for avoiding them!)

The 700g Satsumas in T at £1, in my view, are a mistake to buy for two reasons: firstly they are an overpayment instead of Morrisons' 73p on the same weight. And, secondly, there are some 900g Satsumas in A at the same £1. So you get 200g less by going for T's offer! (The A ones work out more expensive than the M price per kg.)

In my defence, I finally fell for the M Satsumas after seeing them in my third store. I shouldn't go to so many Morrisons:rotfl:. To be fair I don't get them too much, so it's a bit of a treat and whilst Apples (other than the Cox 6 pack at T) are a bit expensive, so will do to have some Satsumas when the apples packs run low. 73p isn't that bad to pay only rarely, though I won't be too pleased if 1Kg Satsumas or something like that go onto 39p in Aldi tomorrow:rotfl:!

Just spent an age onto Nectar live chat trying to sort out missing points. I would honestly show you some screen shots of the ridiculous conversations I've just had but there's too much personal stuff in there.

I've gone round and round in circles. They do not know what a till spit is. They cannot accept that I've earned so many points from a £20 shop:eek: so they must include Mycoupons points!
My coupon points take 28 days to show! And on and on we went. I was so irritated that I stayed on until the bitter end and beyond knowing they close at 8pm. At 8.01 I was asked how many points I was missing in total and I was told immediately they would all show within 24 hours. Finally:)

And breath

Now there is a useful tip :T:T:T. Start the live chat ten minutes or so before they are due to shut up shop! :j:j

Off to bed now. Goodnight all.

Sharwoods are 4 for £3 in M, so need to buy multiple of four to try for 75p pricing, and good to see it picking up the M mbuy across four different versions. Good if your A has them at £1.69 individual.

EDIT: Noticed the loose bananas appear twice. Can you buy eight, each as a separate item on your receipt, and get eight different items?

Savvy, I am not sure but I think if you buy something and weigh it yourself and then get them to weigh another of the same thing at the till, it comes out as two separate items on the APG. But those who have done this can confirm.

Now I really am going to bed!

Hi.
watched apprentice 1st time ever.was very good, am surprised.
re FB, am not on but dh is.some stuff on about 2 different places near us saying shootings and ppl dead...yes , awful but the thing is that its not true , then if anyone clicks on it, it puts a virus or some carp on your fone / fb account.so just a word of caution really as its easy to be reeled in by the scammers.
hope things went and go okay for anyone with hospital tests and hugs to the ill ones.
have a mri scan tom myself.
hope all goes well for FC.:A
and wondering where DAVID. is?
I watched diy sos.was really good.heard that they are showing somewhere near us at end of this month so will look out for that.
am watching shopping tv and liking loads of stuff that ill never buy.i watched most haunted from pontefract the other nite.well I say watched , I recorded it , to watch in the daytime or it gives me nitemares, cos everytime it gets to a scary bit, salwag snorts and moans, and makes me jump :rotfl:
so, am going now I am, in yodas voice in honour of new star wars:D
glad lots of you managed to get some cheap bargains and glitches.it seems the more posters we have on here, the more glitches..so in a way, all the upset may have been good for the thread, even if it was horrid at the time.
take care all.xx

I like your thinking savvy

It's because loose produce weighted at the till has a different barcode to 'self weigh scales' printed barcodes

See this receipt for example...

Cause the multi now shows on .com

:rotfl: yeah, what bubbs said..

If you notice a multi has disappeared in the morning then it's worth testing or asking on here for advice.
