    Rtc C&C heads up

    Finish DW 56 Regular or Lemon, RTC £8, £16 A v £8 W (MSM)

    New store working, scanned on A app and MSM so may still be opportunities out there. RTC in three stores today so seems to be national but delisted in some stores.

    Untested but should work if RTC in store and available to order.

    The M list is now updated (as much as I suspect it will be) and shows lots of items on which a basket might be much cheaper at M! And, of course, that does not mean you should buy them at M:wall: (unless they are not glitching at A and you have 10% staff discount at M I suppose) - instead you buy at the more expensive place:money:!

    So, even after 'this basket is cheaper', there are still lots of items at M that, on plain shelf prices, are cheaper. In fact, with more M offers beginning last Monday, there are probably more items on Avs M now. I suspect it's the usual thing with the supermarkets - where a "price crunch" sees other items in the store raised in price to cost overall more or some of the prices "crunched" don't go back to what they were before they increased immediately before the crunch and actually cost more than they were some time before. But, as long as the ordinary shopper believes they are getting cheaper...;)

    So, maybe the usual thing you get with supermarkets generally and the same thing I suspect with the mbuys and move to eday low prices - which we know that, in M, they were often higher prices than offers although I'm not saying it will be the same thing at A. I suspect however much of this is a rhetoric more than it is the reality and that, even though they'll say they're moving to eday low prices (which may or may not be low), they'll always still have mbuy offers on and that may be more the reality even if the public face to the media is saying another thing.

    I've finished the M list for now. I've been trying to find the 10" pizzas to be comparable - however it seems A stocks a lot of varieties that M doesn't have - not just the Pepperoni that I had earlier - and several others are outside of the weight range, including one on them by just 0.2g:(. There are a lot of Stone Baked, rather than Thin & Crispy and Deep Pan. Maybe I am being too pedantic on one of those - A have a Meat Feast Pizza, however M's is "Pulled Steak Meat Feast" - so I have been wondering whether the meat is "pulled" enough. Unfortunately, others are outside of the weight limit and I have been applying the weight limit very strictly. I've found only four that I would see as comparable - however, tbh I would just buy the pizzas at £1 in M rather than try the APG for them for the sake of 10p off that might not materialise (and A is £2.50/2 for £4!:eek:). I am heartened that the Pepperoni (which was on the womble) shows a £2.60 price on msm for M whereas all the others have no M price showing. There therefore does seem to be an M version of the Pepperoni at £2.60:eek:, whereas the others, with no prices for M, may have £1 M pizzas available. There may be luck on wombles, I don't know.

    Enjoy the list!:D (Even if you shop in M for the pizzas:rotfl: - or, probably, just stay with the Chicago Takeaways;), or maybe some Oetkers if they have vouchers that cover their full A price:rotfl::rotfl:.) Bye for now:wave:.
