    I stand corrected. Not going to have to chase up points this time.
    Just checked my account and they went on yesterday.

    BONUS! You earned 1,000 pts at Nectar


    Can you remember (or can you check) when you redeemed?

    I was feb 25th but don't have the bonus yet. I wasn't expecting them until 29th though

    Hopefully they are going on X days after you redeemed rather than everyone being credited the same day

    TIA

    Oh well, it could have been worse. Much worse!:eek::rotfl:

    8 items on your receipt qualify for comparison Asda morrisons
    1x ASDA Smartprice Vegetable Instant Soup (68G) £0.20 £0.20
    1x ASDA Smartprice Tomato Soup (400G) £0.24 £0.24
    1x ASDA Chosen By You Lime Cordial (1LT) £0.58 £0.62:(
    1x ASDA Grower's Selection British Tenderheart Cabbage (EACH) £0.43 £0.28
    1x ASDA Lemon Multi Purpose Surface Wipes (40PK) £1.20 £0.50
    1x ASDA Chosen By You Milk Chocolate Butter Biscuits (125G) £0.80 N/A
    1x ASDA Fresh Milk Semi Skimmed (6PT) £1.30 £1.30
    0.13x ASDA Grower's Selection Loose Banana (order by number of bananas or select kg) (PER KG) £0.09 £0.08
    1x Baylis & Harding Limited Edition Pink Magnolia & Pear Blossom 2 Piece Set (EACH) £4.00 £2.00
    Comparison total (compared products only) £8.04 £5.22
    +£2.82 cheaper

    They've got the Baylis & Harding set, but they have £2 price for M for it. M has it on RTC at £1. So, I've paid 80p more:(. And tbh I wouldn't even say it was worth 90p for what it is. However, it's allowed me to spend a Herbal Essences voucher.

    They've also got the out of date price for Lime Cordial:( - so not just yet. I bet this is on the Monday price collection and, if I'd waited a few minutes, it would have got Wednesday's and right price on that and the B&H set would have gone to £1. I do not know where they have got the £2 from but at least they have got the item or else got something else (at £2) mixed up with it. Since it's worse than M - then again you may not be able to find it in your M - you might not be trying this and the possibility is that, if they have the right set but the SELs in M were double the real price, it could have gone by Wednesday in the store (probably one, possibly two) that they have got it from - if the RTCs stock gets bought randomly by some customers on Tuesday in M and then the staff remove the SEL leaving the store without any evidence of it. Then again, maybe the APG collectors maintain the previous price they got for 7 days if they can't find on a subsequent collection what they found the time before. However, if it is SEL of £2:( in the M they have then it may be less likely to sell - and the M staff could by Wednesday have got the £1 right price on it. So, if they had a £2 price on Monday, it could go either way on Wednesday. Or maybe this is Wednesday and that's what is available now.

    So, £2 price:( but could have been much worse - could have been N/A! I thought it was 50:50 as to whether it would be picked, at any price, at all. It is possible to visit 6 Ms, like I did a couple of weeks ago, and not find it at all. It was in one - as it happens smaller - M for me on the Monday. In fact I visited seven Ms through that week's Monday/Wednesday. I could have picked six of those seven and, if I'd gone to just one, other than the one that has this product in it, then I would not have had it at all. Last week it turned up in one store for me on Monday (different from all the seven I went to the previous week) then a different store on Wednesday - one of the same ones as among the seven, in which I had not had it before. However, in that store, which I happened to use again on the Wednesday, it was completely gone by Wednesday. So I did not have it a week ago yesterday but of course 'knew' it would still be around. It was in one of the stores I checked on Saturday for the 'more items from other stores' rather than for this item that I already knew to exist in M (even if I didn't have it on the most recent price collection). I've used four different Ms between the Monday and Wednesday this week, plus the one I happened to visit on Tuesday (so a total of five) and I have not had it at all this week but obviously knew/thought it would almost certainly be still around. It is, it seems, but APG has £2 price:(. Never mind - not all lost like a non-comp. would have been!

    I don't know why I try these items and do these gambles. Maybe because curiosity gets the better of me and I have more money than sense!:rotfl::rotfl:

    I'm still no closer to establishing which Ms are being used (perhaps I ought to just ask them:doh: - they could only say "no" - but I'm actually not on an aim to discover which Ms it is) - but if it is the one I had the errant SELs for the Chicago Melts in - but had no evidence of those products at all anywhere else - and one of those did work on the APG - then I don't hold out as much hope for the JF Blow Out Spray (£6 individual price and on the 3 for £10 in A) that is £2 in M. If that is this store, then just hope they pick it up from somewhere else - but then again it may suddenly appear in this store (which I couldn't recheck) earlier this week:rotfl:. I've got that in two of my Ms now but I have seen it elsewhere - I don't know, maybe not as much as the Baylis set, but then it could have come into a few more Ms (it's not widespread though - certainly one of my two didn't have it before - however I have not seen it many where else but those places were several weeks beforehand) and it could be that now is about the best time for the JF Spray and it could be becoming to be in fewer stores than it was. I think my two local stores are over-representing it - it's available elsewhere and maybe it has a chance of being picked up although not perhaps from the B&H store - but then again they may have another M way down south that has both of the products. If the B&H is from the store I saw on Saturday though, then the Cornetto Chocolate 5 pack I think stands an excellent chance of working! (But, if it's from elsewhere, I think the Cornetto stands virtually no chance at all:rotfl:.) Come on - is anyone going to try the Blow Out Spray?:rotfl::eek::eek::rotfl::rotfl::D

    I took a - it turns out - 80p hit for the team on this small two piece gift.

    They also aren't seeing M's Continentals (125g), on 70p RTC in M, as comparable to the Butter Biscuits (125g) so buy in M! At least the Lemon Wipes work:) - I think I had a Citrus/Lemon issue of my own.

    But, I contend, still not 10% cheaper on my complete shop:p. But, never mind, I was risking even more, and I have some wombles - five of them this time - and managed to have all five of them having no 29p veg/potatoes at all:T:j:D:j - I think trick is to find a store in which the 29p products are not as obvious:rotfl::).:D One of them at least looks quite good too - with some nice expensive items on that may give 10% as about same price elsewhere (and 10% of a higher price is nicer) and hopefully not losing much elsewhere. We shall see:rotfl:!

    I missed out on the Heinz soup glitch earlier in the year, hence the expensive SP:rotfl:. Although the packet soup went up in price in M a while ago, they do have it comparing on the APG (rounding M price upwards:p) and have noticed it even though it's a different weight (but is within the weight range).
