    This Onken, at least, is picking up A mbuy (comp. shown is vs M and W):
    2x Onken Natural Set Biopot Yogurt (500G) £2.00 £2.00

    This is from another receipt where nearly everything comparable is around the same price at M - or, in fact, the same price on this one! However, we should be grateful that they aren't 10% cheaper:D.

    They got the Taboo Original comparing against M (bought at a time when M is £6 rather than £5):
    2x Taboo Original (70CL) £12.00 £12.00

    I would have gone 'thank you' or jumped around at that! However, I thought they ruined it by mixing it with a lot of bags of Walkers Crisps:mad:. There are cheaper ways to own 24 bags of Walkers Crisps than paying £4:eek:. Do not buy Walkers Crisps:mad::mad: if you are buying items that compare good (for womble purposes;)) vs M! I hoped that some of them were Worcester Sauce though, and :jhalf of them are!

    2x Walkers Ready Salted Crisps (6X25G) £2.00 £3.00:(
    2x Walkers Worcester Sauce:T Crisps (6X25G) £2.00 N/A:T
    Comes to something when, to not lose more, we have to rely on N/As:rotfl:.

    The eggs and cucumber together would make A just 1p cheaper:
    1x ASDA Grower's Selection Cucumber (EACH) £0.49 £0.48
    1x ASDA Eggs Medium Free Range (12PK) £1.73 £1.75

    Everything else that compared, barring the Walkers Ready Salted Crisps, was the same price for M - so most of the difference in price was due to the comparing crisps. I think M have gone OOS in at least some stores on Worcester Sauce version, so the N/A may now be correct! I will not argue with it at times when A is £1 and M much more expensive on other Walkers 6-pack Crisps.

    Not a good idea to buy Walkers Crisps with items that compare for 10% vs M, except for Worcester Sauce (and even that isn't a good idea, it just saves the womble). I had one earlier and, although they bought the McCain Micro Chips Straight Cut - they didn't buy a lot of crisps either - they bought so badly the result was a 61p APG vs Sains.

    Vs W
    2x ASDA Greek Style Yogurt (200G) £1.00 £2.10:eek:
    2x ASDA Large Mango (LARGE) £1.70 £6.00:eek::eek:

    I see both Ready Salted and Worcester Sauce go against 2 for £2 at W, so, even a £1 each, buying four, paid too much - lost the 10% against W:laugh:. Everywhere else the Ready Salted lose, and the Worcester Sauce lose against T and S (and also against M in the sense that, in twos, they lose the 10p that they would have had had they been on a W target shop - still too much even at £3.60:eek: for 24!).

    One I had earlier they bought the Activia Intensely Creamys at 2 for £4:rotfl:, when they are now 'expensive' everywhere. Fortunately they did not subtract from the APG but would have been far better if they had still been £1 elsewhere. I was hoping they'd bought the Muller 4 packs at 2 for £4, as they are £1.24 in T - my guide price btw £1!:D - should really be a lot lower - but I noticed the individual price meant that it was the Activia Intensely mbuy that they had gone for. 2 for £4:eek: vs 2 for £4 elsewhere:rotfl::).

    Make sure it's a new account Rhosy. If you try and use the code on an existing one it disappears when you get to checkout. Hope you are well.
    There must have been a la redoute glitch in the past that I've forgotten about because all my emails have existing accounts :rotfl:

    Then went to Sainsburys with £7.50 wys £50 plus £10 BM got lots of pet food and generated another £10 BM.

    I have drunk wine. I need to go to bed now! Night, night. :)

    It gives £1.62 - enough to buy a four pack of Birds Eye Grills! Or it would - often find I get values that would conveniently buy competitor items, except that A either don't stock them or else are more expensive so you can't simply spend the womble on that item without initially giving them much more:mad::rotfl:. (And then having to buy a further seven items - so it doesn't work!:mad: You can't just spend the womble on that one item for that price!)

    (BE Grills, in fact, were down to £1.50 in T earlier. I am normally with Sains Basics at £1.20, even though they slightly increased in price from before - they are still, normally, the cheapest - and don't require mbuys against W to achieve more. Also, fairly 'good' in S at the moment are, for me, unbelievably:laugh:, the Basics Apples packs - although receipt says Basics Apples x4 - the packs I'm finding - even if the apples are small ones - are 7 pack. They are 80p, but 80p for seven works out at a fraction under 69p for 6. So, they'll actually same price (or thereabouts) as the T Braeburn Apples at the moment, if number of apples is important, and we need more beyond just the same one type of apples. I'm relying on a final Cox apple from the Aldi offer from just over two weeks ago. However, I now have Braeburn (from T), pears will do as a replacement for now (from Aldi on Wednesday before the offers changed, but then found :mad:I could have waited and still gone for Lidl now) and the Basics apples from S.

    M is £1.07:eek: per kg on loose Jonagold (which is approximately T's 6 pack Braeburn price - £1.03/kg or thereabouts) but I always find the Jonagolds in my Ms are quite large so, although you can get under £1 by buying just two or three if desperate to tide you over, if you need more it does add up to somewhat more a pound as apples are large and therefore heavier:(. For me, it is number of apples that matter - I'm always getting through about three different ones a day, together with at least two types of vegetables on my meals.)
