    Thank you, seems to be RTC in some stores and full price in others.

    On CS and CoS if you haven't claimed from both yet.

    For people who aren't in NI and don't have an M nearby or don't have an M that has any stock of the Princes Pink Salmon:

    :idea:Would TBG compare against M's 40p RTC price?

    All of the 40p SELs that I am seeing do not have any indication that this is reduced to clear. I have only one store has any indication that the price is an RTC price and that indication isn't in the normal fish aisle, it's only elsewhere in the store - the normal fish aisle has straight 40p:). They are unlikely to be in that store anyway. They probably will hit stores that have 40p as that does seem more general in M (and especially as TBG collects on Thursday I reckon, later in the week hopefully more Ms would have changed that had not - though I realise that Wrexham:p that TBG is highly unlikely to be in did not).

    Of course with TBG you can see if you are getting 40p M price before you have to pay (it comes up with the bill amount after you enter your bags number on SS). Watch the TBG cap and maximum number 10 etc.! Unfortunately, if it didn't work, although I think it is likely to do so (there I go again - likely) or could do so, I don't see any grounds for actual complaint as this is an RTC price that TBG should not match - unless the CS don't know the rules.

    It's possible the Red Salmon in T could compare against 50p. Again, no indication of RTC on the SEL in Harrogate or on the one posted. However, I think it is extremely unlikely (although, again, you can see before you are committed to paying anything) - as I've been through 12 N/A stores before I've reached a single 50p. My understanding is that TBG checks only 3 stores.

    It's also still possible that the APG could pick up 50p for the Red Salmon. However, the likelihood must now be that it has £1.75.

    I think the Hot Dogs are no-go on TBG. Few stores seem to have any SEL (they don't have stock generally either) - the ones that do are either £1 (which TBG would take as it doesn't say RTC as it was not) or have been clear RTC 25p for me. It's unlikely the APG would now hit an RTC 25p on any of them - I think it would have done so on at least two, and most probably all three, of them last week - especially as six stores, for me, always turned at least two up. Fwiw, the one that might have been less likely to compare last week was the American Style Hot Dogs as they seemed to be stocked in the first place in slightly fewer Ms. There's also the risk of £1 SELs now outweighing 25p, especially as more of the former 25p stores will now be no trace, so that there are now far fewer 25p SEL Ms left. I have hit one yesterday - but only on one version of the Hot Dogs (and I did have more £1s from elsewhere within my six).

    Good job I went out yesterday as I would not have known any of this:rotfl:. I am not intending to go out today or tomorrow but will stay in now for the weekend. Hope you are having a nice weekend:).

    There are RTCs that are stated on the biscuits - where they are 10p, which is practically impossible for me to find now - I did find it earlier obviously in order to find out that the products were 10p (and then bubbs helped me on another one I knew nowt about:rotfl:) but now I'm not seeing 10p labels anywhere - and where they were there they said RTC. There are the odd 44p labels etc. still around - which don't say RTC, so TBG could hit on such a store but it is most unlikely. It's likely to find stores that don't have any stock or SEL (or even if there is stock, they won't know about the item as there is no SEL). In short, biscuits/Go Ahead Oranges "aren't" (famous last words!) going to compare on TBG - T may have different weight according to online - but all 10ps (far and few between now) have said RTC so I think they wouldn't compare. I think the Princes Mackerels generally say RTC as well - but the SELs are far and few between and there are nasty ones out there (£1.37!). If TBG is in York, then the Princes 3x80g tunas are clear 50p (at least yesterday) and don't indicate an RTC but it's very unlikely they are in York. The Tuna Mayonnaise Sweetcorn isn't sold by T. If it is and merely isn't online, then, if it had a price for M, it would be most likely to be £1 as the 25p SELs say RTC. It is most likely to be no trace. Perhaps not best to mix Mackerel and Pink Salmon in your basket as you probably won't know what's worked and what hasn't!

    Bye for now:wave:.

    That seems a better result than most people reporting this morning, so no need to be sad :).

    I have quite a stash of Carling now - if only premium lager brands joined in this game :).

    I still fondly remember Snakes - we were drinking those for ages. The Carling Zest (through MSL app at the time) were bearable too but that was the beginning and the end pretty much of the generous MSM cashback offers - their system clamped down after that (I may have had an account closed as their original rules did not say one account per person ... they amended that though :o) then they have had relatively few good offers since.

    I'm not willing to pay anything (i'm actually in profit for my 200+ cans thanks to their overpayments)

    My favourite beer deal was the Bavaria (though not the best beer it was the most fun to do at the till)

    Thanks, but no rapid rashers near me....got the bogof Danepak instead for cos...and the gluten free porridge and yogurts....been soooo much free stuff this last month has been crazy!

    Great deal for free bacon, I got a few on Thursday and rapid too (Rapid for TCB £1 cost, £1.70 Cashback, Danepak on separate receipt for CoS bogof £2 in coop so free if you buy smoked and unsmoked). Plus Yeo 4 pack of bio strawberry yoghurts while you are there and porridge etc. Danepak was only in the larger Coop near us, little stores only had their own brand bacon.

    How much did you pay for these please?

    In case Lango not around, I got 10 mullers bubbs and paid £5.36 (in reality thanks to a wobbly I only paid 14p :D ).

    It may be store dependant I mentioned yesterday I saw SEL for Badger First Call 50p in a small store but it scanned £1.&0 in the large store.

    The likelihood is it will be RTC in more than one for that price just not all of them. HTHs
