    it did have a red REDUCED SEL [1] so thought it might work as showing as £1.49 on A.com :o[2] i bought an extra item just in case it didn't show or something & [3] i love cocktail cherries anyway so thought it was worth a try :)

    [1] It'll show the actual price you paid instore. The time you can buy instore though is if it is on reduced but is on a multibuy online which is a higher price per unit than you pay and compares favourably, from the multibuy price, to the competitor you are targetting and you buy the multibuy number. (Obviously you would need to know all this beforehand, that it was on multibuy online, what the required number for that was and what pricing it is on elsewhere or else have access to the online information whilst in store.)

    [2] I keep doing that:rotfl::(. On this occasion it would have been better if it didn't show.

    [3] Presumably love them enough to pay 10% off £1.48 for them.

    Dexter ...... Looks like your kettle did a runner overnight ����

    The good news is it looks like it's returned ! And apparently it's upgraded itself too ��

    I wondered where it had gone, those pesky kettle pinchers. I'll take the upgrade thanks :D

    Trying to help people in future, Bistro Salad in M is cheaper by weight but sadly is 200g so it is non-comparable. I think M may have put their price down purely because Lidl is/was very recently even cheaper on the equivalent thing:rotfl:. (Perhaps not - I can't remember precisely what I saw in Lidl/Aldi last week.)

    Good evening, my dh bought a tiny piece of electronics off eBay and I cannot believe the seller, they have secured it on a piece of cardboard and put into a prepaid brown envelope, my guess is a government office, they taped his name and address on the inside at the clear window, apart from the dishonest side they charged £1.99 p&p:eek:

    No stars for that seller for postage then....

    Two shops vs M this afternoon, did three different Haribos, all worked. Super love and many thanks to N1LDA:heart2:

    8 items (7 different) on your receipt qualify for comparison A vs M
    0.04x A's Grower's Selection Loose Mushrooms (PER KG) £0.09 N/A
    1x McCain Lightly Spiced Wedges (750G) £1.85 £1.00
    1x Haribo Tangfastics Bag (160G) £0.79 £0.50
    0.39x A's Grower's Selection Loose Banana (order by number of bananas or select kg) (PER KG) £0.26 £0.26

    Comparison total (compared products only) £13.02 £9.13

    Lancashire Farm Natural Yogurt (1KG) currently £1.34 in M according to online:rotfl:. So, they gave you a bit more for that, for their own possible failure (either to be in the right M store/stores or to pick it up in stores in which they were in). I wouldn't know - M price too much for me:rotfl::rotfl:.

    Its 3 + 3 x 3 -3 =3

    So 3 + 3 = 6
    x 3 = 18
    - 3 = 15
    +3 = 18

    I am a self employed bookkeeper
    No.

    (3 + 3) x 3 -3 +3 = 18

    3 + 3 x 3 -3 +3 = 12

    It always amazes me when people get this wrong. It's not a subjective opinion or more than one way of looking at it - there's only one answer.
