Green Giant Express 208g are currently on £1 and any 2 for £1.50 in M. At least one of these it seems to me was on straight 50p earlier in the year.0

For information, Quorn Meat Free Family Roast (454g) is £2 in M. It does not show online (except on this website forum, on this very post:rotfl:). It is 4 for £6 mbuy in A (and individual £3) so you would need a trigger as the mbuy price for A works out at £1.50.0

All four of the Lynx Duo Gift Sets (£5.00 and 2 for £8.00:D in A) are now each £3 in M. Maybe one with a trigger. However (1) you need to wait as the M prices will not be updated as at the time of writing and (2) :(usual issue I'm afraid with the prices showing on the SELs in some Ms. I think the Attract for Her might be the most likely of the four to succeed.
But then :think:they do use 6 stores (although some of those are for the Scotland collection) and if they have one store that is showing the £3 offer on all of them, they should all get £3 as they should take the lowest price they find. There may be a fall-back against T at £3.25 on any of the four, but then that would not be as good as getting (in due course, need to wait first) £3 for M appearing.
Really, tbh, I would prefer if Mr A would keep them on the offer but raise their individual price as high as possible!
I think gift sets are quite more expensive than their individual contents. Maybe wait till after Christmas to find some then hopefully going real cheap!0 -

There are some Cofresh 80g products on 2 for £1 in A and 3 for £1 in M. I do not know if they would be picked up or which of them. I've done the maths and I've decided they are similar to crisps multipacks at 150g. Therefore, they need to meet my guide price of absolute maximum 50p. Assuming 80g at 30p each (which includes the 10% and assumes that that works), it would work out at about 56.25p per 150g! So, they'll still too expensive:eek:! Just like the Hula Hoops and McCoys really:rotfl:. You may have seen someone buy two multipacks of Hula Hoops on 2 for £3 in A; however, when I bought them, I bought just one pack as I felt 10% off 73p was a little too much (I'm very harsh:laugh:) and would rather have other crisp snacks if I can get those cheaper. I managed to pick up some store-specific 6 pack Walkers at 50p (a bit higher than my last time of 35p) - absolutely fine, they have end of January BB date - they'd just simply fallen out of their original bag, so that's added a few more crisps for me and for cheaper than an extra Hula Hoops would have cost!
AB (frozen) Sage & Onion Stuffing Balls 310g are £1 in M. So, avoid the 250g other version in A and buy the one that looks more expensive that's higher weight and £1 elsewhere:rotfl:. However, I decided that SP Sage & Onion Stuffing Mix 85g at 15p (and that was itself beaten in the past by some large Paxo comparing against T, way back) is just over 49p (with 10% cheaper vs T, S:D or M) for 310g equivalent. So, why bother with expensive frozen stuff?0 -
Is really Ambi Pur 3volution Plug-In Refill Vanilla Bouquet and a few others £5.00 and 2 for £6.00 but several others straight £5 full price?
If this is on the mbuy,
Ambi Pur 3volution Refill Thai Orchid
£5.00 £5.00 / Freshener
[Strike]£5.00[/Strike]
£2.50
Ambi Pur 3volution Plug-In Refill Vanilla Bouquet
£5.00 any 2 for £6.00 £5.00 / £3.00 / Freshener
[Strike]£5.00[/Strike]
£2.50
Maybe one of each, pay £6 then 2x£5! However :(wouldn't pick up M price of £2.50 yet but will need waiting for it to begin to do so.
I'm just putting all of the comparable ones I've found for M onto the list (were £2.49 in M some months ago:rotfl:), for whatever point it is worth, and then I will be finished! I shall copy prices for A exactly whatever I see at the moment on msm.0 -
That's it for the M list from my Monday results, I think. The Toffifee 100g is £1 in M but turns out to be 97p for T. It had a downsize anyway and not liking that and the price vs T does not quite fully compensate for the loss of weight. V.expensive chocolate:rotfl:. Why bother - I think SP Toffees may be the way to go! Actually, should be Dominion Toffees (200g) at 23p in Aldi - somewhat cheaper:money:. A SP 15.6p/100g; Dominion 11.5p/100g. If there's any other ones in Lidl, they are probably same weight and price as Aldi:rotfl:. (I'm learning!:D) Otherwise, I think it's stick to the 300g Toblerones that we bought much earlier in the year (10% off 75p vs W now expired months ago) and they'll do instead of the Toffifee!:money::money::rotfl:
Elsewhere, Marstons EPA 500ml is £1 but uselessly pricematched at £1:( from A - no mbuy and high price, no chance of glitch!
I'll see you later:wave:. Enjoy the list:rotfl: - even if nothing new on it will work yet. Today (8/12/15) I think is last day for one of the three Schweppes Sparkling Juice Drinks and Coke Life/Zero 1.75L (I tried Life - I don't know if Zero went N/A vs M?:question:) even if pricematched - I've had mine track at £2.25 and £1.85 - and hopefully that will come through. Obviously if you are doing that, you'd need to shop today and get your receipt submitted today. So that is two items towards 8 for Avs M. Am I the only one to buy Lemon & Elderflower? It worked vs M of course. I was wanting to have some Bitter Lemon already from somewhere for Christmas, but this will adequately do for me!:T:money: It appears to be buy one (at £1, and vs M if you can) and get £2.25 CB. It seems to be obvious to do it! Worst thing seems to be if you just got £1 back, but then would have made 10p on the 10%.
N.I.- I think vs T might be best for a bit of 10% though off T's slightly higher price and Schweppes to be N/A - don't try Avs S as S is £2:eek: on that! That said, it's very one for the experts as I had them buy the Kettle Vegetable & Beetroot for me on an otherwise good shop against T on a womble, but it got reduced down - it's already unwelcome £1 for A on msm and, even though it shows T as "---", it did compare vs there at £2.49:eek::(.
10p CB off Pringles 190g started today - but that will not work vs M at the moment! I think we need to time these things. Also, the Mars Medium Selection Box 15p for purchasing one in case that helps anyone. You might be trying mbuy though. Don't just buy something for a few pence back though, as that isn't moneysaving. That's called spending money:( on things you weren't going to buy and would never have had but for my own advertising of the CB offer.
First part of list is here:

Bold is new items (won't work yet). Crossed out is either the usual crossed out items that may have risen in price but are still alright enough not to remove all trace of, or it's the items that are probably about to expire (unless they continue to pick up old M pricing for a few more days).
I will be very likely collecting for a new one tomorrow!:eek: Wednesday:rotfl::D:cool:. Bye now!:wave:0 -
