Perhaps it just wasn't picking up the Extra Mature..Unless I did something wrong
No that's completely wrong price for M - it isn't £4:eek: and 2 for £4! I don't know what they are doing with these price collections or where they are getting that data from. It looks like they have now got individual price of £4 for M on the Extra Mature! And no mbuy in the system:( meaning the mix and match won't work.
[Strike]I think, basically, it is off vs M. Possible 2x Mature might work if it has that as £3 and 2 for £4. However, I wouldn't bother: I'd just try W.[/Strike] I've changed my mind: it appears that some versions still work vs M (see my posts below).
I think you posted the W comp. before but labelled it as being against M!
Not to worry, I'll cross off the cheeses against M again.
However, are you sure the above is the M comp now? Because, not only does that not look right, I also understood that the Mild version was not available in W and yet the comp. previously posted, if that was W and not M, had a price (successful comp.) showing for the Mild. Am I getting confused? Not surprisingly:rotfl:. Which comps are working and on what cheeses?
What date was your shop, with the M comp. above, on?
I'm crossing them off anyway as the suggestion is they are not working against M. Even though I'm (a) confusing myself as not looking into it closely; and (b) it's not being set out in a crystal clear way to me. Too vague. What comps., what dates, which precise cheeses?0 -

Good luck anyway xx.
Please feel free to ignore me I might be talking a load of rubish. But find it hard to believe any child is naturally bad.
In my experience, teenage boys turn into grunting stroppy little sods at the age of 14, they then emerge about 19 and discover what it is to be human again.

And then they shower five times a day, and go through a tin of deodorant every day!

2x Cathedral City Mild Cheddar (350G) £6.00 £4.00
So it's working vs M you see, I am confused!
Is this is a Scotland issue somewhere?
Or is it that the mix and match has not been picked up for M on some of the cheeses and therefore if an odd number of those is bought it will fail with another? The problem is not on the Mature or the Mild if that's so (and assuming no Scottish issue). (However, do we know whether Mature and Mild have been put into the same M mbuy offer on the APG system and that 1 of each would work? If they haven't, then they won't!)
People need to be accurate, I'm sorry. I know I risk annoying people here - but it's not correct to say that "the cheeses are not working vs M". Assuming that this comp. above, from today, reflects the whole of Great Britain. It appears that some of the cheeses are working but that some are not. You need to be specific as to which versions of the cheese you are talking about, what date you shopped, which comp (vs M or vs W?) and, now, where you are in GB. I'm sorry to be pedantic (my usual pedantic self:rotfl:). You know I need people to be clear and specific!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::):T0 -
I think Extra Mature has failed to pick up M mbuy and has a price of straight £4 for M in the system.
Avoid that one if targetting M. And, I think, avoid Mild if targetting W as W don't have that one.
I thought we weren't supposed to have a price data change this late in the week - what are they doing, moving the price collections again?:mad::rotfl:0 -
Maybe 2x Extra Mature would work vs M?:eek::rotfl: It may have M mbuy in the system - albeit with incorrect individual price of £4 - thus £4 and 2 for £4 but not in the APG as being in the same M offer as the Mature version. It's a possibility. However, I will assume Extra Mature is off vs M and now only vs W.
Do we know if Lighter Mature works vs M?
I'm working this out myself - I think (vs M) Extra Mature is off, Mature works, Mild works but I don't know about Lighter Mature.
Anyone either know if Lighter Mature picks up M mbuy or whether 2x Extra Mature works against M? TIA.0
