]1] Well not a lot to report on the glitch front.
Hopefully there may be some changes overnight, but usually I can tell by now.

[2] Good news is that it looks like cheese and turkey mince will be glitching again today.:T

[1] Good.:):eek::rotfl: As I need a day on my M list:eek:. Seven sides of paper again!:eek::eek: It just expands and expands...:rotfl::rotfl: But, to be fair, one of the sides is not full and about one and a half are taken up with the various Head & Shoulders and Aussie Shampoos/Conditioners versions and different versions of the same product such as a list of Heinz Little Kidz meals in part of it. Aussie Shampoos are 2 for £5 in M, I've not mentioned until now. Whoopy-doo (just had a quick look at A's price) - they are 3 for £10 in A, so might fit in - however £3.69 is wayyy too low and too close to the non-glitch £3.33 price for my liking:(. Doesn't seem too worth it but might be a 'trigger' somewhere to be found.

Should I stay in and do the M list or should I go out and get more and then try?:think: I will soldier on - I am doing a very good job helping keep those prices up-to-date. M list should now be usable as it stands (albeit that they might be on Monday and I'm on Wednesday:rotfl: - just a little quirk there to trip you up randomly:doh:), I've got rid:eek: of the expired offers and it's just additional items to add! Something good will come out of those pages! I can exclude the Dolmio 4 Person meals:T:T - I like it when my time putting an item onto the list is now saved (instead I'm now writing this:rotfl:) as T is slightly cheaper on one of the versions. (I note the other on msm has T at £3.99 - maybe this is a brand-new offer and in the middle of updating:think:.) A at high individual price - is there any mbuy to come onto them soon?

Keep watch!

[2] Good. [EDIT: I still haven't quite got the cheese onto my list yet. Now that I know that the £2 price has been that way before, and it looks still on, I'll add them onto my list right now:T:T - fwiw as you know which products they are already:rotfl::rotfl:. As I understand it, M is the 'best' comp. as it has all four versions, which hopefully keep comparing as they should, whilst W has only 3 of them. Not available to Northern Ireland again:doh::(. M also has the Turkey Mince - I understand that is available to Northern Ireland just on the T comp.]

I'll see you later I think. Earlier to bed, early start;):D:wave:.

Late to the party again I know. Cathedral Citys showing £2 on a.com - has it always been that way?

no one answered you then! "always" no. quite a few months yes.

there is a ghost multi on the cheese of 2 for £6
if you put one in your asda basket it says offer incomplete. if you keep adding a packet that message does not go away. you cant see what the multi is on a.com, but as long as you get the offer incomplete message on a.com. it should glitch at 2 for £6 on apg
obviously only good if cheese is less than £3 each

Be careful - I feel sure someone mentioned Mild came back NA for M earlier this week? It may have corrected itself on the latest collection. Otherwise buy 2 in A for £4, APG sees £6 v £4, £2.40 return on APG Av W (or M), £1.60 for 2 .

I cannot have the cheese right at the bottom of the Dairy & Eggs part of the list!:eek::eek: So, I have promoted all the cheeses on Avs M to higher up that section in the list:cool:.

See you folks, goodnight!:D:wave::wave:

Last I heard (maybe I landed on an old page?:think::o:o) was that someone mentioned Mild compared against M but that it was N/A against W (rightly:(, as W doesn't stock that version). As far as I know, all four were comparing against M:T. But you rightly suggest that there may now be a Thursday update, which for all we know may be a little late, and I can't guarantee it will get all four and with mbuys again. It should do, as M have all four and all on their mbuy. But, yes, there is that possibility that, apparently all four were comparing, but the very latest right now could be that some have dropped off again:(. I hope not - I hope all four compare as they should! I shall stop "hoping" - last time I "hoped", that seemed to be a recipe for something to fail. So, I'll say nothing:silenced:.

Goodnight!:D

Squigs is trying to prevent the wine from updating I suspect
Wine has updated in the last hour, along with the CBA noodles and batter mix.

AvM from 5pm for Turkey Mince...

Did and AvT for Gallo also but messed it up royally so it did not even compare! My own fault as I bought a few different greeting cards as fillers and they all classed as the same "item". Newbie mistake :eek::eek::eek:

2x ASDA Little Angels Cotton Wool Balls (200PK) £2.50 N/A
1x ASDA Grower's Selection Cucumber (EACH) £0.45 £0.48
1x Lurpak Lighter Slightly Salted Spreadable (500G) £3.00 £2.00

1x Snickers Bar Chocolate 4 Pack (4PK) £1.00 £1.44
Comparison total (compared products only) £23.36 £18.91

Thank you! I think this means we are now on "this week's" price collection and that this means the Kellogg's Frosties (750g), which on M's mbuy of 2 for £3 are at my guide price of 20p/kg, might work.

I do have Kellogg's All Bran Bran Flakes (500g) at £1 in M. However, SP Bran Flakes (750g) are 88p vs 88p M:doh:. I remember when 'Value' Bran Flakes were 64p everywhere:(!:rotfl:

There's various cereals on offer, such as some Kellogg's Corn Flakes on that £1 price, but not all of them make my list as there are better prices on SP(:eek::rotfl:) versions than ever the offers on branded cereal, but Frosties does not have an equivalent at SP and therefore it makes the list!

Or you could try 3 packs of 500g Frosted Flakes against T for the same quantity (and same eventual price) and see if that works. Does not contribute as much to the APG though, even if all goes well on both options (only one available to NI, the vs T on own brand approach), as A and T are price-matched on their mbuys.

However, :doh: Harvest Morn Frosted Flakes (600g) at 99p in Aldi are cheaper! Cheaper than even 10% off either the offer of T on own brand or M's offer on Kellogg's Frosties. I think, if I remember correctly, Lidl's version, which is 500g, works out a little more expensive than Aldi's? So... decisions, decisions. Just buy Frosted Flakes in Aldi or pay more, either way, in A even if using the APG. May be helpful for spending vouchers/wombles though:cool:, even if works out slightly more expensive (or a lot:eek: more expensive if the competition's mbuys should fail to be picked up which, I trust, isn't the case). Would be nice difference of £2.58 plus 30p 10% if vs M on two Kellogg's 750g Frosties works (on current A price of straight £2.79) - if it worked, it makes the next APG worthwhile and printable. Do we need to await an mbuy to be put onto them in A?:rotfl: (Perhaps in an attempt to match M's pricing a bit more closely but which may be temporarily unseen at the very start, or finish.)

I've seen cheaper whoopsies (than even Aldi's 600g at 99p) from time to time so do keep an eye out on various stores' RTC shelves:cool:. (Remembering that, sometimes, very high priced items that are more expensive than their offer prices get put onto those shelves:rotfl:;).)

You know I didn't mean "always" literally:rotfl:.

Thanks for letting us know there is a way that we can 'tell' if this is likely to keep glitching or not. Well, folks, keep looking there for me:D:rotfl: as I'll be unable to keep checking that whilst I'm doing other things (namely the M list) for us all!;):cool::A
