Entertaining Lovely Information Travels Elegantly

Mumto2monkeys

Evening lovely's :wave:

I see you are all shopped out;)
I couldn't go this morning:( work was calling:( did manage a couple of princess and Olaf bits at 6.30 this morning and bobbed into b00ts at 3:30 pm shelves were more or less empty apart from a few joules bags and Lynx peace sets.
Still managed to spend £15 though...on a few bits for the present drawer. Sadly not my usual collection but pleased with what I got.

I bobbed into sbobs this morning... Air wick Lake District reed diffusers were rtc £1.75 and mulled wine colour changing candles were rtc at £2

I looked at those bags and thought they were quite nice but DD definitely doesn't need another bag.
Although kind of wishing I'd got one for myself now

They still had these rucksacks down r/side, do you want me to pop in and see if they still have them tomorrow? I can pick you one up

I am well out the habit of APG purchasing, clearly. Am looking at mysupermarket so I can compare prices of fillers. The candle has a * against it at tesco which means it is out of stock. I know the APG doesn't use mysupermarket any more, so does this matter?

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but been pretty much out the game for the last 6 months, especially with online orders.

No, she's talking about OOS for T rather than it showing as 'Unavailable' on a.com. Ladyshopper, are you signed in on msm? If you are, if you sign out, the asterisk may disappear as it may be reflecting T in your local area when signed in. Msm is a guide only - and, in that, it is still useful for helping identify comparable items (as long as you remember that occasionally it captures things that aren't comparable due to too great differences in weights and, as for Morries items...).

It depends on whether the item is still showing on t.com and whether the APG's own scan (of t.com) has picked up the T item or not. An asterisk on msm may mean the item was absent, or detected as unavailable, on t.com at the time that site took its last scan of t.com. The APG might have taken at a different time of the day, which it does each day, and may or may not have picked something up on t.com, depending on whether there was anything there. If this is early in the week, T are a beggar sometimes for removing items from their website (usually at the end of offers) only for them to reappear a few days later. This can result in N/A.

Can you see the T item on t.com or not? Even if not, however, bearing in mind that it may just be absent from t.com in your area and might be showing in other parts of the country and picked up by the APG from there (which would then reflect in everyone's results, except perhaps if this is a Scotland/rest of the UK thing).

If the A item has gone OOS on a.com, which is not what you asked and is completely different, then it can reappear later (maybe a few weeks later) and such items, that have gone off a.com and back on again, have been known to go N/A vs all competitors for a time when they come back onto a.com until, eventually, hopefully, they start to pick up the competitor's price again. I have this with SP Milk Chocolate Bar, which disappeared from a.com even though it was still available instore - and I suspect did not count as an item for a period. When it returned, several weeks later, it did not compare against T or M at same price (returned N/A vs both:(). The latest I have is that it is now comparing once again. A similar thing happened with SP Fishfingers, which used to compare against same price at T and M but which, I understand, have now gone N/A vs T for a number of months and have yet to pick up a T price but are now comparing only against M at same price (S is undoubtedly being returned more expensive:eek:).

HTH.

Are the soups really £1.98 straight or are they 2 for £3 and is there a glitch?
TIA.

£1.98 straight, no glitch, just had to recycle an APG, and used the £1 MOCs
