Keep in view the Sure for Men APDs (250ml) - they need to be bought on the final day of their offer, after online is then showing straight price.
Currently £2.80 and 2 for £3 in A. All three of them are £1.40 each in M.
The final day will be the one day that I am looking in the other direction:(. It always is. So, please look every day for me from now on and let me know the moment they about to come off the offer. If you stop looking, you know that the first day that you don't look will be the day they are about to come off the offer:mad:.
I'll be looking each day for weeks on end now - and they'll stubbornly keep at 2 for £3. As soon as I get tired and give up, that'll be the very day a change will occur and I'll miss it!0 -

Dog food glitch! (Not tested)
The multi on these looks to have finished, but should still be multi price instore. Apg should see full price.
Some of them compare to M. at £2.43 per pack, so after apg the price should be £3.38 for 12 tins.:)
I don't know how long the offer has been on in M. so don't know if the price has been picked up yet.
Savvy may know better!:D

The Carte d'Or Ice Cream, at £1.32 M offer price, isn't really a buy in M so it would be wrong to put it onto the "buy in M" list. It will therefore exclusively be on the new Tvs M list on here. Therefore, the 'meal deal' items, vs M, should only be on the Tvs M list and won't appear with sole M prices on 'buy in M' as they aren't buys in M. I'll copy the italicised items, which may be either buy in T (vs M's price) or buy in M, onto the Tvs M list (which will see a return of the T prices) and also put the meal deal item details that I have onto there as well.:cool:
I still have a very small number of items to add to the M list. I am about to reach the meal deal items and was just working out where they should go!0 -

A little over 28p a tin - it would be a good price!:D:T Unfortunately I'm still stuck looking at tins in M that reach or better my guide price of £2 for 4 tins:wall:. I don't know about changeovers of any offers on branded tins therefore:(. For those that don't have any A available within reason, but do have an M, there are some individual tins in M - some 395g dog loaf at 38p which works out slightly better by weight than a 400g one that is also there at 40p. However, msm is telling me that 1.2Kg tins at 2 for £2 are cheaper by weight than those individual tin prices. But just to note them - for non-A shoppers - as M's Savers Dog (and Cat) 4 pack tins have gone up well over £2 these days but instead you'd need to be switching to individual cans (own brand) that work out cheaper! They're maybe just trying to get you to pay more by thinking you are buying ones that save you money:rotfl::D:wall:.
I don't know whether the Cat Food Chunks in Jelly tins (400g) are 2 for £1 or are 2 for 80p. Msm suggests 2 for £1; however on Wednesday I have 2 for 80p offer showing in some M stores - I even have both 2 for £1 and 2 for 80p showing within a single store and both offer labels saying ends 24th January. So, as is not unknown to be the case, it's anyone's guess again.
I've concluded - last week - about some mbuys that may not be displayed in M, that sometimes it's just about getting people in different parts of the store to miss them and end up paying more! That's what I felt about the Cocktail Sausages (frozen) mbuy - already expired - I had 4 for £3 on the aisle-end freezers (wasn't totally clear that Cocktail Sausages were even in the offer but I concluded they were as some packs of the product were put there) - they were 4 for £3 showing in some stores in the main shelving freezers, but - I walk round the corner and there's a separate container of some of them with just straight £1 price:eek:! I've concluded that that was so that it was another opportunity for the store, tactically, to sell to people, just by being located there, and it was so that people who saw them there and thought "£1 - that's a good price!" might pick up a single pack, or maybe a couple of packs, but miss the mbuy and end up paying more than the mbuy price, because they didn't see the mbuy price as they didn't look in the aisle end freezer or the main aisle! I think the mbuys are sometimes tactically missing - they don't have to show mbuy pricing, only individual prices for every item they sell in a store (though, even then, stores in error miss that sometimes) - so they may not always be showing them - or sometimes it may be that they just haven't got an offer label up.
Stock of the same product in different places in a store - and different pricing on each location! It happens quite a lot. (I often think an offer's over and, then, turn around the corner and see the aisle end and... it's on after all:wall::mad::rotfl:.)0 -
On the potential dog food glitch, I don't know about that offer comparing against M. It looks like it may have begun on Monday 4th January in M. Msm has previous price on 3rd January. I understand that the APG is still on 30th December at the moment, until it updates at some point later today. Therefore, if that's the case, this isn't going to pick up £2.47 M. However, it could be good to try in twos anyway vs T at 2 for £5 - so pick versions that compare to mbuy vs there (assuming even that's picked up) - works out at comparing vs £2.50 - not quite as good as £2.43 obviously but it doesn't look like that will work right away according to what I see on msm. Should extend to Northern Ireland as it's against T!
I could of course be totally wrong and somehow the APG already have £2.43 (I just don't see it from the way the price change dates look on msm though).
Previous price (3rd January), according to msm, was £2.50 anyway. So may compare against either M (not Northern Ireland) or T at £2.50 each when twins are bought.
:eek:Pedigree at £2.43 - I ought to have had that as £2.43 for 6 works out at £1.62 for 4 - which is better than my £2.00 price and a lot better than so-called "Savers" price!
:doh::(I've just got too used to ignoring branded pet food as it's often been way too dear! Sorry folks, I've missed them:o:o - but they are on msm and probably won't work against £2.43 anyway.
I blame those Butcher's dog foods - I was taking prices of £2.50 on 4 pack of those, and £5 for 6 ages ago, only to learn that that was way too dear (after all, it was an everyday low price back then so I ought to have assumed it was way too expensive:rotfl:) and settle at needing to be £2 for 4 cans. But I then just got into writing off the Butcher's ones - and all other branded ones - every time as I just assumed they would be too dear! Mistake though. Never assume anything with a supermarket. I think I did see some offer labels on Pedigree dog foods earlier but just didn't register that that was a really good price that I ought to have taken!
Anyway, if there's a glitch, the glitch will be on - and then it will be over, meaning that the items will never be as good price thereafter and so they should, at that point, never be put onto the M list anyway. So, I am right to leave them off:D:cool:. I couldn't even know precisely which ones to put onto the list if I wanted to anyway, as I don't have full details:o:o:rotfl:. Well-spotted on the potential glitch.0 -
Is there a possibility of Sains. within the meal deal offer (perhaps for N.I.)?

Any other items in the offer that are good vs S? Answer is probably not:rotfl:.:p0
