    I couldn't find the Finish earlier on a.com:rotfl:. For some reason "Finish 22" brings up no product but "Finish Dishwasher" brings it up.

    RTC C&C heads up - double checked and in my store:

    Hydro 5 scan as indicated above £9, percent sel RTC £4.50
    Hydro 5 power £15 online, sel RTC £6.50 (T £6.50)

    Hydro 5 and power blades also RTC half price plus Hydro 3 but no good comparisons.

    Untested but should work? Medium sized A.

    Hi Shione,
    They are £2.48 in A so you pay £1.48 in real money after using the coupon.
    They are £1.17 in W so you get an APG of £1.31 plus 10% of £1.17 which is approx £1.43.
    So you are paying 5/6p

    I know people already have this on comps. and will already know. Loose Ginger not comparing vs M:rotfl:. I think A not 10% cheaper than M even though M is higher price and slowly increased in price to its current price that it has been at for several months.

    0.01x ASDA Loose Ginger (Please check weight when added to basket) (PER KG) £0.01 N/A

    However, hardly worth bothering with! (I'm glad I didn't buy too much:rotfl:.)

    Vs Sains:
    0.01x ASDA Loose Ginger (Please check weight when added to basket) (PER KG) £0.01 £0.04:eek:

    The loose garlic is also still N/A vs M, which is a good thing this time as M is more expensive. Compares vs T, S and W 25p vs 30p, M is 30p but returns N/A:). It stopped comparing many months ago for no obvious reason and as far as I know it has never come back since. I have loose garlic in my main M. Made a bit of the difference for me on a shop (I had to buy it in order to get the required spend and it was the only thing I could think wasn't cheaper with the limited range of loose veg. in that store - can you believe they don't have a loose sprout?:eek:) and turned out S was more expensive with M N/A so overall comp. was a few pence better vs M.

    I will check the weight thank you very much! Hopefully will result in 1p:D.

    I think it is just these price collectors are the ones that are useless on loose veg. in M. May be the same agency as T was or is using. The failure of items in the loose veg area to compare was a major area several years ago that they often missed (when TPP included own brands within it). It won't be the same price collectors though, maybe the same company but in different M stores at different times. So the data will be different.

    Ooh, they've got 35p on the Peanut Snaps:T, so it's a bit better than what I thought. Maybe the M I saw it in had an incorrect SEL of 38p:rotfl: or maybe my memory is not quite correct on that - I'll check what I've actually written down when I reach it later. N/A vs everywhere else - only compares vs M.

    1x Snap Sweet Peanuts (33GR) £0.38 £0.35

    Told you about this, it was the fact that the product was put onto the aisle end and attracted my attention that made me buy it.

    Was being nosey :o as am going to add one on to the new menu we are doing, we have lots of lovely cake stands and teapots and china cups, so just need to decide what to do and how much to charge. Xx

    We got probably 3 bread cakes between us cut into thin pieces on bottom row with cheese, salmon, ham, salami plus various pickles on them. Then second tier had about 4 different cake squares about 6cmx6cm cut into 3's, so a slither of each cake each. Top tier had scone lids with jam and cream. Teapot held one cup each. £12.50 pp I just checked. Hth xx
