    Could it be the earlier successful shop had one of each (strawberry and raspberry, and strawberry) so that broke the multi, rather than all strawberry that you bought?

    Maybe, my store only had this flavour so couldn't try with others

    Tiger Rolls are the next item not to compare against M:(.

    2x ASDA Tiger Rolls (4PK) £1.10 N/A
    M 50p each.
    I bought a pack at M the other week on whoopsie at 9p:rotfl::money:.

    1x Cathedral City Mild Cheddar (350G) £2.00 £3.00:rotfl:

    M might have this as well, although I am not sure as I would go for higher weight own brand version:

    1x Hill Custard Creams (300G) £0.50 N/A

    If they are in M, they are 2 for 70p there, although the APG does not compare them anyway.

    M certainly have this:
    1x Coca-Cola Bottle (1.75L) £1.00 N/A

    At least two, potentially three, items missed on one shop!

    In fact, look, there is it - I saw this the other day and it's also on this shop, so it's three potentially four -

    1x ASDA Grower's Selection British Carrots (1KG) £0.57 N/A
    M 60p.

    This:naughty: is currently working:
    1x Nestle Rolo Desserts (4X70G) £2.00 £1.00

    I think offer in M due to end immediately after this weekend. I suspect this means the Milkybar dessert is also likely to pick up M price of £1 - I saw that it did several weeks ago.

    I suspect they don't have the Hill Biscuits in the M stores they check (that's if M does have the Custard Creams 300g).

    Vs T
    2x Crisp 'n Dry Vegetable Oil (1LT) £3.00 £2.00
    Don't need to buy 2!

    Fear not candle and air freshener lovers ... it looks like A are starting to populate new Airwick/Air Wick and Glade product categories - looks like we experienced a range change, more getting added to the system (images coming soon apparently).

    See for example http://groceries.asda.com/search/glade at the end

    So unless you are constantly watching to see if the price has changed over the course of the day, is there no way of knowing whether things will glitch or not?

    Wondering if there have been more changes to online ordering? Munqui's RTC items appeared full price on this delivery receipt, despite being cheaper instore. And my yogurts+actimel appeared full price (no multi-buy) despite the multibuy working instore (on at least the yogurts).

    I hope the system isn't moving towards charging what you see online?

    Can anyone work anything clever using the n/a?

    I don't think so because, either way, it still has the mbuy 3 for £5 showing (on the Quorn Pieces too) so simply compares from what the T prices are and N/A isn't helpful as it simply gets you paying the T shelf price - no deduction. Nice idea nonetheless.

    In this case, the Quorn Pieces means you subtract at least £1.03 from any discount that might otherwise been due and, even if all the other brands in the shop were cheaper at S, you do not get S price match on those but pay £1.03 more (due to paying T's cheaper offer price on the Quorn Piece instead of S's higher price when T's mbuy deduction is applied to them) - in fact you subtract even more vs S due to the Cottage Pie also comparing. In this case, it would have been cheaper just to buy the T offer on the Quorn in T and any other brands in the shop at S (assuming all the rest to be cheaper at S) - or done a split shop at A, one comparing the Quorns vs T (especially if there is any glitch there) and one comparing the rest Avs S (assuming the items are available in A and assuming the APG compares T and S's items).
