when does it expire, as the 5 for £1 looks like it ends 23 feb. so easier if price returns to 20p each

01.03 so should have just over a week if it goes back down, although it's just as possible it'll go back up to 39p looking at the graph on msm

A.com says "£1 r'back":( on the flavoured milk, so it's not getting onto the list. It has crossed out price of £1.19 - obviously going from 2 for £2 to £1. So no saving at all on probably yesterday's mbuy (or maybe today's if online prices reflect tomorrow's prices).

In A, there have been a couple of recent periods in which it has been £1.19 straight and on which it therefore worked out cheaper in the sense of requiring less to be bought to reach an APG voucher to spend and giving more APG back if M or somewhere else was straight £1 at the time (which, I know, on at least one occasion they were).

It seems best to buy only ever if it is straight £1.19 (or straight £1.17) online. Which therefore helpfully restricts our purchasing to limited periods of the year, sees us not being tempted by it and sees us buying it much less:money:.

(I'm so cynical:rotfl: - but, with these supermarket tricks of going from an offer of the same price per unit to the same price and back to the same offer again, with an individual higher price used as a reference price each time it goes back to straight £1, I think the cynicism is entirely justified.)

Roll forwards to put on mbuy then r'back again when the offer has finished.

Mum was in a&e all night and is now in a single room. Sis is there and says she feels very sick and they are waiting for the dr. There was a choice of Bath ( nearer to me ) or Yeovil ( closer to my 2 brothers and sister ) so sis insisted she be taken there to make it easier for her! However has worked in my favour as she has been there since 8.00 waiting to see dr. Thanks for everyone's good wishes

A straight offer price does allow you to buy less and make a saving by not have to multibuy. However, a high individual price in A, when the item is on mbuy, makes a greater saving, when it compares to a competitor who is on the straight offer price.

I finally have a new freezer!

I now have to clean it and then I can go out while I wait the obligatory few hours before I can turn it on and collect frozen food from various addresses!

My Mum was a bit poorly yesterday and dr came and said chest infection and gave her antibiotics. I popped in after work and she was very shaky and when I helped her to the loo she collapsed on the floor.
She is now in hospital with suspected sepsis

Oh no Rose, how awful, wishing her a speedy recovery.

:j:j Finally, bet you are relieved.

I believe the Chocolate Fudge Cake (don't get tempted!) in M has come off a 2 for £3 offer which has ended, so it is cheaper now. Gone back to the £1.47 it was on before the offer started. So, A's Chocolate Fudge Cake may be able to go back onto the list soon.
