    DH on the other hand was still snoring when I got home at just after 11, so I poked him awake and made him take me to A and womble while I did the shopping. All he found was one worth 16p :D

    thanks everyone for asking after master skint ( I loved that!) happy to report that once he had settled down and the colour returned early this evening he was able to sort his skittles into colour and alphabetical order and all was well again. I was going out tomorrow but not taking the risk now as I would be 2hours away if the school was to ring.


    here's hoping for another glitch, I've not gone out for eggs as I already have a table full and have now eaten 3 of the gits as the packaging fell apart in my hands...


    off to make a cuppa, think I have deserved that today


    See you all nice and early tomorrow - Night all x

    Glad he's feeling better sarah. :)

    TS I've loved hearing about your kitchen today, and about your parents. Shouldn't feel guilty at all, sounds like they would be so happy for you. Can't wait to see it all finished. :)

    Last chance, for now, on the Bernard Matthews Turkey Dinosaurs and Golden Drummers etc. vs M as they have now gone up from £1 to £1.97 in M! (I'm sure they will go back to £1 at some point, but can't say exactly when and it could be a while - although, or perhaps because, we have had two recent cycles of £1 offers).

    I can confirm these work:
    1x Bernard Matthews Turkey Dinosaurs (500G) £2.00 £1.00

    I do not expect them to work for very long!

    On my non-glitch shop:(.(:rotfl:)
    Well, I suppose Easter eggs are a little glitchy:D:
    10x Cadbury Creme Egg Single (40G) £5.00 £3.50

    I wanted the Fruit Shortcake, but typical that my A is always OOS whenever I am trying to do an M comp.:mad:, so had to settle for the Shorties instead - and would probably have been better buying 300g Crawford Shorties in M:

    1x Hill Biscuits Shorties (250G) £0.60 £0.35
    1x ASDA Chosen By You Fig Rolls (200G) £0.50 £0.35

    I had to settle for the more inefficient shop of 2 packets of Fig Rolls and a Flump last time:(. Though we do get through a few packets of Fig Rolls, especially with them being only 200g everywhere. I am not trying for the Hill's Fruit Shortcake again now; I might just buy them in M and cut my losses on them next time. I also got Nestle Honey Nut Shredded Wheat (500g) which has already been confirmed. There is no urgency on the M offer on that as still got time to run - the APG should not change although I can't guarantee it won't.

    As for new offers - don't let this confuse you as certainly not on the APG yet! - the headline is the Palmolive Lemongrass/Jasmine/Mulberry (are they still really RTC in A and are they even still online?) are now straight £1 in M. There's more, but - can't quite think what it is at the moment:doh::rotfl:. It'll turn up - let me have a think/a look.:)

    I chickened out, too, on my shop. I was going to have 8 different items and buy two tins of SP Spaghetti Loops, but I replaced one of them with a tin of SP Rice Pudding. All compared and all the same, but could have done with another tin of Spaghetti Loops:rotfl:. Never mind - it helps next time, I suppose, as it's one item already on the next M shop (only 7:eek: - or 8 alright! - more to get!). If anything does not appear on my shop, it won't have been worthwhile doing the shop anyway - as the things most likely, perhaps, not to appear are the glitch items I want to appear - so if they didn't appear but I still got 8 other items, it would be rather less than what I was hoping for. So, they had better appear, like they do, and then I have the 8 items anyway!

    I'm not getting the large Easter eggs, as we have bought enough for us for Easter already. The M. comp would be slightly worse than the invisible trigger vs T of several weeks ago, although if you can get a full S comp. on all the ones you buy, it is now slightly better than vs T was.

    Thanks for that love heated, X was is the deal on the small cream eggs, do I still have to but ten items when buying the eggs? Thanks so much for your help ��

    I'm told (I'm relying on an earlier post and haven't worked it out myself) that 10 eggs, which is maximum number since it appears to be confined to one item, works out at 11.5p per egg but 6 eggs is 10p per egg. However, if you are doing 6 eggs and then buying another 6 in a separate shop, you would spend more on fillers than the extra 15p spent by getting ten! You are hitting the A mbuy that is online although they are, I hope, 30p RTC instore. Even numbers seem better overall, given that 30p in evens = 2 for £1 but a single 30p = 30p:(. (Everywhere else is on 3 for £1, so, if you don't buy in threes, i.e. buy ten rather than six, the excess one is comparing at full price competitor - 50p - rather than 33.33...p (but then, if you are buying an even number such as 10, it's appearing at 50p as part of A's 2 for £1 online result so it's still coming out not 10% cheaper) - but six is technically best due to the offer number everywhere else.)

    Unless you mean...
    Do you have to buy 10 (or in fact 8, but people recommend a couple more in case any should not appear) different items? In which case, yes - you can't simply buy 10 single Creme Eggs as that is just one item. Need to have at least 8 unique grocery items that are not excluded items and appear on a.com and on the APG in order to have an APG comp.

    If you buy more than 10 Creme Eggs, plus your 7 or more different other items, only ten will be compared so you will be buying any excess at 30p each rather than 10p/11.5p!
