    CREWE is a little local Sainsburys as is Alsager - both difficult to get at so to go to a Sainsburys local it's easier for me to go to the one outside Liverpool lime street or the one in Chester.

    It's the massive main store sainsbobs outside the next big town I use.

    BM - you need at least 10 items but it came be one branded and 9 own brand. Prices are matched Sainsburys against Asda and the BM is capped at £10 and lasts 2 weeks - so ideally use your BM straight away to get your muggle shopping. You can use SS tills to get a BM but usually the SSS needs to type in the BM to pay for shopping.

    The potential shop with Shopotize cashback items I was thinking about mid week worked nicely and I got £2.97 BM. My idea was to upload my receipt and get it processed and then this weekend do the same shop for OH Shopotize.
    Needless to say I had the usual receipt problems and my receipt has gone for review, this is the 4th receipt now. I also emailed Shopotize and again no reply so it will be Tuesday now - a repeat performance of last weekend :(

    I did £15 of shopping and used a 240 points bonus till spit and a triple points - these are being issued like confetti now every shop you get issued with one. I had 2 items for my coupons and these have been added now so another 80 points - so that's 365 nectar points, £2.97 BM for next time and £2.90 in cashback if and when it's processed so not too bad for a little £15 shop of useful odds and sods.
    The till spits I've got this week are interesting as well. I've got 2 more of the spend £20 on household cleaners etc get 7p off fuel and also 200 points bonus for every £20 shop or multiples
    Also 120 points for buying any Covent garden soup - very useful.



    Thanks for this, does the BM pick up the price of wines and spirits that are cheaper in Asda, I realise that you cant use a money off coupon for spirits, but wondered if it would work on wine?

    I just got a 1kg bag in Lidl, 7 apples in it, lovely apples too.

    Lidl is a bit of a treck for us.

    I am fussy about apples. I like Granny Smiths or breaburns, have to be hard and crispy but hate paying more than 20p each so I will eat pears if I can't get exactly what I want. I also like pink ladies and the heritage species apples Marks sell but far too expensive unless I can find yellow labelled ones :)
    I can go through 2 or 3 at least a day - it's my one vice :)

    Good question, not sure of the answer but I think not.

  • Was really hoping to find a 4 pack of Carling cider in my local A as it's £4.50 vs £3.00 in M and I have a voucher for a free pack from iPint - but they didn't have any, boo!

    I know Apples packs are a lot cheaper elsewhere at the moment - T Sweet Tangy 540g at 69p and Braeburn at 59p in Aldi - but these are the ones that need to be bought to get £1 vs £1 comp. on APG against M:

    1x ASDA Grower's Selection British Red Apples (650G) £1.00 £1.00

    Probably more expensive than even the 4 pack at 50p (Gala?) work out to be in A! Aldi's 59p pack of Braeburn - I bought an 8 pack but watch out as there are 6 packs for the same price hanging around there too:( - would it seems be much ber cheaper (certainly per apple). I can remember 750g and even 800g packs of apples being £1 years ago.

    Interesting - I always check the apples in aldi but our store never has apples under £1 and now you have mentioned the weight issue as well as the number of apples in a bag you have have got me wondering - is the weight on the bag?

    Ok the only think I really want is a motor home - or at least a vw campervan, all mod cons and a mechanic to look after it.
    A live in maid of course :)
    I would also like to buy a lake but it would have to get a mere.
