    Do you know what? Whilst I think the price collectors might not have had all the different versions of Princes Mackerel Fillets that M has:
    Savvybuyer wrote: »
    Princes Mackerel Fillets in Tomato Sauce (125g)£1.00 25p All of these risk non-comparing as they seem to be becoming rarer in M (due to the good price). They may pick up a random version, or two, that is still left in the collection stores. Probably likely not to get all of them now (even assuming they ever had all of them in the first place). They may be more likely found in an M that didn't change the SEL - but if the APG is in that store, it will obtain a higher price from there:(.

    I don't think I ever had them all:rotfl:.

    Although I've mentioned the Limited Edition Hot & Sour version, including in it my Savvy's list game, and I thought M had it, I didn't have it on my M list - I've only just added it now, to Avs M with a note that suggests it highly likely won't work, and to buy in M.

    Princes Limited Edition Mackerel Fillets Moroccan (125g)25p
    Princes Limited Edition Mackerel Fillets Hot & Sour (125g)25p

    I'm N/A on the Hot & Sour version that - despite going through dozens of stores - I have yet to find any SEL for (so I'm N/A on that count anyway) and have not even found any stock with no SEL. So I am complete no trace. I didn't even find this product when it was, presumably(:laugh:), 50p in M. I say presumably as, of course, I never knew! I've got it from msm on the basis of it saying 50p and OOS for M on there - but I've never had any indication of it anywhere in M. My original stores, during the 50p period, did not stock or have a SEL for it - I've searched more stores when it's now (I think!) 25p and no trace. I may come across it eventually in a store with stock that has no SEL or has a £1.37 incorrect price SEL. Of course, it's possible an APG store could have it - it could be £1.37 SEL:eek: or they may have stumbled across 25p even if there is no stock (but it seems likely that such a SEL would be removed soon after the product was sold out). I think it's extremely likely to return N/A or less likely, but possible, £1.37. Yet it must be available to buy in some M somewhere for 25p. So M does have it at 25p. However, it will be very hard to pick an M at random and find it.

    I've lost track of what I am now:rotfl: - but I think on Tomato Sauce I went N/A after originally picking it up at 50p SEL in two stores (no stock in either but I didn't need it to pick up a price) and I didn't have any incorrect SELs. There was no trace in my other four stores. After it had gone to 25p, I had no trace - no SELs, nothing.

    On Spicy Tomato, I did have 50p but I went to £1.37 after finding a single store, without stock, with an incorrect SEL.

    On Sunflower Oil, I was 50p thanks to only one store (SEL and stock) but then lost the item and went N/A on different stores later. I found Curry Sauce originally in two stores, both of them with stock, and a further store that didn't have stock. That was when they were all 50p. I'm still 25p on Curry Sauce thanks to finding it with 25p SEL in two stores - one of which where the product was hidden behind a pole in the aisle, so, for that reason, probably hadn't sold. So, it's the location of a pole in the store that makes me pick it up (although actually I did have it at 25p SEL, but without stock, in another store - maybe I arrived at the shelf two minutes before a staff member took the SEL away).

    On the Morrocan, I'm formally N/A. I was N/A when it was 50p as I found no SELs and no stock. So I would have compared against full price the previous week but would not have compared at all from Monday. (A does not actually have this product online; it's hypothetical as if they did.) I did in fact find, and buy, a single unit of stock that I found whilst rummaging among the Princes Pink Salmon for the Red - it had then gone to 25p. That's the only time I've ever seen the product during the reduction periods in M. However, I had no SEL at all so couldn't pick up a price:rotfl:.

    For all I know there may even be further Mackerel Fillets that M had - and still has somewhere at 25p - I can't see anything for M for the Mustard Sauce version on msm - but I am not confident that M does not have it.

    Slippery slope now you know. :p :rotfl:

    I had to tell Mr TS yesterday I don't like S&V crisps, he got me a pack in, he then said well what flavour do you like, he was sure I did like them. I would have thought by now he would know it is ready salted. :o
