I thought this one didn't look any good - and it isn't: 40p:(. Hopeless as they haven't even picked up M mbuy price on the Morrisons Salt & Vinegar crisps - in fact they seem to have picked up a completely wrong price:(. They are 85p and 2 for £1.50, not £1 each. I'm glad that either Worcester Sauce isn't sold by M (I notice it's not on msm) or that, if it is, it was probably £1.50 in M! In fact, with the correct price for the Morrisons crisps, they wouldn't even be cheaper than M contrary to what they claimed! However, they may have been cheaper if they've missed the Worcester Sauce crisps. People buying expensive packs of crisps in A:rotfl::eek:.

They got the right price on the Ready Salted - but only 1 bought:
1x ASDA Ready Salted (6X25G) £0.90 £0.85
In fact, are they even comparing a six pack on the Salt & Vinegar above? Looks like it's a 150g pack according to the description: so one pack of 150g crisps. If so, it looks like they're picking up some completely different item in M. And it's not the Salt & Vinegar Sticks either as they were on this pricing:
Morrisons Salt & Vinegar Sticks (150g)
88p any 2 for £1.50
58.7p / 50p / 100g Valid until 31/01/2016
So, I can only think they've associated the A product with some 150g branded product in M that's on £1:(.
Let's hope they got it correct yesterday.0 -
And that's it - hardly anything worthwhile! But it wasn't a special journey - I just popped in as Mr A were on the same road on my route back.:)
Alright, goodbye for now!:wave:0 -
hi ..just thinking meat prices .Ashfield Farm Fresh British Pork Shoulder Joint (1Kg) aldi£2.45 £2.45 / Kg.... can anyone beat this
Yes! On price per kg. anyway.
Avs M on the comparable Pork Shoulder should be 10% cheaper than £2/kg = £1.80/kg - but would have to be very quick as it's now gone up to £3.78/kg in M (relying on the fact the APG update wouldn't yet have been made).
Otherwise, M's fixed weight 1.5Kg British Boneless Pork Shoulder is £2.72 (works out at slightly over £1.81/kg, so almost as good as the Avs M item that's now expiring - assuming you picked up the correct one in A and assuming it compared against what was M's price from last Wednesday's price collection date. And of course if you just needed the Pork Shoulder joint, you'd have to buy 7 other different items with that to get the APG so, for the sake of about two pence (that's all that slightly over 1p/kg amounts to), it would work out more expensive than just buying the non-comparable £2.72 one in M - assuming there's an M available to you). But...if you want to spend less (i.e. £2.45 rather than £2.72) then best getting the Aldi joint - although, depending on how much you use, you will technically be rebuying that much sooner if you needed 1.5kg but only got 1kg. It is worse price per kg. Quite a lot worse.0 -
