    on the receipt it just says kitkat chunky multi

    I suppose the complicated way of doing it is to buy the normal size version then go to the car and scan your receipt and barcode. Then go back inside store and do a swap for the bigger version - mind you that is very naughty - or is it???

    No, not what I meant (though that would work, just time consuming). Just scan the four pack on Shopit instore - buy 4+2 and use that receipt - no need to go out and switch items if the receipt shows as the same text anyway.

    !! Glitch alert on Caffeine Free Coke Cans !!

    I just checked my muggle shop from this morning, 11:35am. Look at this:

    AvM
    2x Diet Coke Caffeine Free Cans (8X330) £5.00 £2.00

    I can only assume it's wrongly comparing to Caffeine Free BOTTLES which are 2-for-£2

    No guarantees it's still working, but if so, buy in 2's and it works out £1.80 for 2 packs (instead of £5 at most supermarkets).

    Here's my full APG:

    8 items (6 different) on your receipt qualify for comparison Asda Morrisons
    1x Strongbow Cloudy Apple Cider (500) £1.25 £1.25
    1x Nestle Coco Shreddies (750G) £2.00 N/A
    1x ASDA Deli Yorkshire Ham (133G) £2.00 N/A
    1x ASDA Chosen by You Chicken Prawn & Chorizo Paella (400G) £2.80 N/A
    1x ASDA King Prawn & Chicken Paella (410G) £2.80 £2.16
    2x Pepsi Max Cans (8X330) £4.00 £4.00
    1x Warburtons 6 Plain Bagel Thins (6PK) £1.00 £1.00
    2x Diet Coke Caffeine Free Cans (8X330) £5.00 £2.00
    1x ASDA Malted Wheaties (750G) £1.20 £1.32
    Comparison total (compared products only) £15.25 £11.73

    Oh well done stumbling on that one!:T:T Not as good as the Coke Zero from T last year (:eek:is it that long ago?) but they weren't Caffeine Free.

    And also well done for finding an item that I don't have (the King Prawn Paella). That's good enough to go onto my list:T. And, as people know, it's not very easy to get things onto my list - I am very strict sometimes - ruling things out that really aren't good enough M price - there are only about four things, over the course of quite some time, that people have managed to get onto my list - sometimes I 'nick' stuff and put it onto there but it's rare people give me things I don't have.

    The Sensitive Fabric Softener the other week was one such item though. I think it is probably comparing to the Pure version in M. However, I had a look at the volume and it's comparing against straight M price of £1.27:(, rather than adjusting M's price down (M is 1.26L and A just 1.13L) - it seems to be comparing (or at least was last time) on them both being 42 wash. Still an alright to good/quite good item though.

    That's rather hopeless having to be the 4 packs, as they aren't very good. Though even the actual M price for 6 pack is rather much (should be an 8 pack if they want £1!). Not really money saving though to travel from shop to shop?

    Savvy, £1 for 4 Kitkat chunky is reasonable/normal? 45p back on Shopit so 55p for 4. If you can get the 4+2 packs and still get the 45p back using the technique above then 55p for 6. Seems good value to me unless you can suggest an even cheaper way?

    Have to post photos from phone so hope this works. Kindly donated by a lady on fb. Couple saucers have been mended. 6 cups, saucers and tea plates. They are called Town Cryer and a little bit more manly than some teacups. Will not get sent for another week or so as op on Tuesday and waiting for some non China related bits to arrive.

    Snap ant what numbers are we up to now? I have been offered others but these were nicest and most suited to the occasion.

    Ros are disposable plate stands out of the question as think I can source a few very nice ones.

    My brain is in my shoe.. I went out with my friend for a lovely day with the intention of on the way home popping into A... I totally forgot!

    Could someone point me in the direction of the thread for the hotel/airport lounge please. The friend is going on her honeymoon, and wanted as cheap as possible hotel..... ;-)))

    Thanks

    :T:T:Tthankyou tweets ...will look forward to watching the Boyo and was just thinking not much on tonight that I fancied watching ..am hoping that he will carry on singing as he was heard to say that he wouldn't carry on if his beloved Linda died:(

    I saw it advertised last week and reminded myself to post for you and Tiny . I see Qoc set her recorder. I am also recording him it overlaps with BGT.

    I also hope he continues singing.

    Hi, thank you all for your replies.

    Very happy with my waitrose shop, thank you all for the help and posting. Was worried that I hadn't put mypicks right, but I got 8 bottles of R whites and 6 ariel, 1 coffe,1 newspaper, no waitrose magazine left and paid £14.08.

    I made it to waitys too and over the moon that the Ariel worked. The stash is diminishing as I keep DS and DD in washing gel/ tabs too.

    Like you, I was unsure if I could do it again so didn't bother.
    I was pleased that I checked my picks in the cafe before my purchase. I'd spent that long choosing stuff last night that I forgot to submit them. Set them up again and shopped a few minutes later and it worked a treat.

    No fillers needed, no faffing about with vouchers or waiting for 3 hours for it to compare.

    Brilliant. I need to move closer to a W:D
