    Thank you so much squigs. I got the Faustythingy wine:rotfl::rotfl:


    Didn't get there till late in the afternoon. There was no Shiraz left but there was a full display of Fausty. I did wonder if it was the right one.
    I will post my shop after my cuppa.:T

    Shop was a bit dearer than I thought and when I checked only 2 cidre vouchers had gone through instead of three . So had to go to customer services:o long queues :o

    I have had a brain wave - would anyone like to test it out pretty please.

    In Morribobs Brothers Toffee Apple Cider is 3 for £5 - does anyone know if you can mix the varieties up or does it have to be just one version.

    I am thinking
    2 cidre £4
    1 Brothers Toffee Apple Cider £2
    total £5 after deduction of £1 multibuy

    minus £4 cidre MOCs = £1
    minus £1 cashback from Q clicksnappy for £1

    also Bulmers zesty blood orange cider 568ml has £1 cashback as well so you could do
    4 cidre £8
    1 Bulmers zesty blood orange cider 568ml £2
    1 Brothers Toffee Apple Cider £2
    total £10 after multibuy discount
    minus £8 MOC
    minus £2 cashback
    total free


    6 bottles free (or rather 6 bottles for 1.60p for 4 newspapers)
    Yes, you can mix and match the 3 for a fiver offer, I have been getting 5 and 1 Grolsh, but will try that blood orange one later as it sounds nice.:beer:

    :p

    I know - and not a good purchase since I've just landed on this too:

    http://www.topcashback.co.uk/mysupermarket/Product/details/ASDA_Smartprice_5cmx_4m_Stretch_Bandage_

    asda smartprice 5cmx 4m stretch bandage placeholder-product.png
    Compare Prices at mySupermarket.co.uk ASDA (25p)
    Price: £0.25
    Brand: ASDA Smartprice

    Unless that's some strange CB amount that it doesn't seem anyone can get.

    I think they were 18p before that.

    At least I didn't get them at 45p though and lose out even more.
    I think the rollbacks, almost always, are probably the worst items to buy in A - if they're not a silly one like this "SP" item, they're very likely to be much more expensive elsewhere as likely not to be on offer. They'll therefore help stop your shop getting an APG. If they are on offer elsewhere, then, unless elsewhere's offer is somehow way better than the rollback price, it's not going to give much APG contribution from the rollback item:(. The rollback stops you spending more and thus need to buy more to use a previous APG! If you're doing a muggle shop (and not looking at prices in advance:wall:) you might be tempted to avoid the rollbacks now and just buy expensive items. However, if you don't do that right, and don't buy expensive items that are all cheaper at one particular rival store, you could then simply end up paying more expensive prices.

    If it's a bigger deduction on a rollback (rather than this silly 10p one where a previous version may have been cheaper), the only real use is if the rollback item is non-comparable against the competitor, but then why do that as it gives no APG contribution and thus costs you its full shelf price? (Or if it's on same price, on offer, elsewhere - but then it probably just gives you a few pence 10%.) And it's very likely no use buying non-comparable items, sizes etc., as it's probably likely there's a different size that's on much better offer elsewhere and therefore best buying that and getting the comparison (as well as getting money back, on the APG, making the next APG more worthwhile therefore, however sometimes you might not want to increase it too much:eek::rotfl:, and being more expensive:T so helping you spend previous voucher(s) more easily).

    Thanks to everyone posting about the wine.

    Persuaded me to do my first Ts BG shop today and it was a success.

    4x Faustino VII
    2x Casillero del Diablo Sauvignon Blanc

    £17 Brand match, worked out £14.50 for 6 bottles. :beer:

    Only ball ache was I had to wait 5mins plus for the person on the till to call an assistant to approve my cidre vouchers, which were then approved... can't imagine people behind me were too pleased. But I got the overlay on the cidres :p:D

    Edit:
    Fruit Bowls baby range makes good fillers at T. They're in the baby food isle, 4 for £2 and 50p cashback each on QCS or COS (free).
