    Thanks Tweets. Just pulled the cracker & won a luxury cut & blow dry. Probably no where near to use it, but will see what happens.
    Just had another look and it is one of the top prizes worth up to £75.

    :T Well done , hope there is a salon near you :money:

    :eek:The Sains. nearest to me now has unleaded petrol 0.2p per litre more expensive than Mr A! Rather than exactly 1.2p per litre more expensive. Does this mean the one a couple of miles away is now 0.8p per litre cheaper?:think: Maybe the Morrisons keeping my closer Sains. price down:rotfl:.

    This little receipt - 23p against T - I think is wrong:

    9 items (6 different) on your receipt qualify for comparison Asda morrisons
    1x ASDA Fruit Loaf (400G) £0.85 £0.85
    1x ASDA Custard Doughnuts (5PK) £0.65 £0.65
    1x ASDA Chosen By You Minestrone Soup (400G) £0.40 £0.45
    1x ASDA Sugar Ring Doughnuts (5PK) £0.65 N/A
    1x ASDA Chosen By You Classic Mulligatawny Soup (400G) £0.40 £0.45
    1x ASDA Grower's Selection Diced Carrots & Swede (500G) £0.50 N/A
    2x Asda Smartprice Ready to Serve Custard (385G) £0.34 £0.34
    3x ASDA Chosen By You Scotch Broth Soup (400G) £1.20 £1.35
    Comparison total (compared products only) £3.84 £4.09
    cheaper +£0.25

    Sugar Ring Doughnuts are 65p in M, but are 2 for £1 with the others, so that 65p price for the Custard Doighnuts should come down to 50p and the Sugar Ring be 65p vs 50p as well. However, Diced Carrot & Swede should compare 50p vs 66p for M:eek:!
    Fwiw, I think it ought to be 41p against M (not 16p) - so I think they still aren't 10% cheaper!
    I wish they wouldn't buy soups - I'd rather three better other different items instead. I thought they might have bought the Heinz or Baxters when I took a glimpse at the receipt - I had them yesterday and they were even worse, so bad they flipped a Morries comp on the McCain Mirochips vs £1 M into a Sainsbobs comp. of £1.79 vs not 10% cheaper than £1.80 as the soups and other items lost out so much vs M!
