    and talking of the distance people go to get to Aldi we have ended up with 3 within easy distance - one we use a lot because its opposite Morrisons, possibly also nip into town and we can also take in Sainsbobs on the way or the way back.

    the other is on a main road so it useful if we are driving back from the station to pop in.

    the 3rd is on a shopping park and impossible to get to.

    but thinking about it my home town does not have any within a 10 mile radius - perhaps its too posh for Aldi ?

    Not the same company, no, but CS and CoS are the same company and them plus TCB use the same system for some offers (TCB seem to have done a deal to host some offers provided by CoS - which is not necessarily a bad thing as TCB S&S went downhill! MSM could join too and then we can have some of the same offers 4 times each :D).

    See how much you get ripped off (IMO) in T, when branded stuff (Aunt Bessie's) that is over three times the weight (T 155g, AB 480g) is the same price in Iceland or M?

    Tesco Pancake Mix (155g)


    Store_1.15px.png
    £1.00 64.5p / 100g

    • Store_3.15px.png
      £1.00

    Aunt Bessie's Pancake Mix (480g)


    Store_18.15px.png
    £1.00 20.8p / 100g

    £1 Iceland or M.

    Will standard batter mix do for Pancakes?
    [Strike]Otherwise, there's Goldenfry Yorkshire Pudding & Pancake Mix on 3 for £1 in M which, at 142g each works out at 426g and then, if APG 10% cheaper works (and only if it does;)), would be 90p for 426g which, per 480g, works out at just slightly more expensive by weight than the AB Pancake Mix in Iceland or M straight at £1.[/Strike]


    Value batter mix. Always a handy cheap filler item on a glitch shop that will actually get used in the this house.
    You could always make your own but I find these are a good size so I don't need to weigh anything :)

    Funny how the BE Veg gets picked up now that they have tinkered with the other part of the system ... wonders out loud how own brand items would affect the deal comparing, given their system is only supposed to compare branded items?

    This may of course be a temporary reprieve for this particular offer and future offers may still glitch.

    If you click through there is a code for 20% off if you spend £20 on homeware - so that's twenty pounds worth for £16 or £15 in nectar points and £1

    just need to think of something else I need in this category for £10 which I can collect at the same time from the same store but its 5 days if I go for instore collection

    I collected the spiralizer today as well but I could only get this in once argos store near us - all others out of stock

    I could order 2 sets and the spiralizer and use the code but then I would have to pay up front, not with nectar points but I could use my paypal ... decisions decisions

    I see (on one of my eBay accounts ...) I have the 500 N3ctar points back on 1000 conversion, plus I also have £4 off £20 spend ... would these stack do we think?

    Why do I never need anything when offers come round - spending £40 on Am4zon for £50 of goods/vouchers sounds great but I want for nothing :A and also have lots of vouchers already ... but they are giving us this incentive instead of paying their fair share of tax so we could be getting our money this way :D.
