    *Tilts phone with Carling. 'Epic win! You've won a 4 pack of Carling'. Goes to Morrison's to pick up Carling. Arrives home, uploads receipt and enters code for NowTV pass. Enters code for NowTV. 'Your entertainment pass has started for £3.33 per month for 3 months'. Eagerly awaits for Game of Thrones to start*

    :eek: How much!!!!
    You can buy (or could) a new NowTV box, the black one, for £19 including 6 months pass.

    Or maybe Wrexham has itself contributed £1.87 to the APG. I may have not noticed the product at all in Wrexham if it was showing full price - I look for offers and lower prices. I picked the Strongbow Apple Cider up in Chester; however the way in which I have written it on my page suggests that I picked it up for the first time from Chester on Monday - I did not have it from Wrexham at all so it may have been there and showing full price:(.

    My three main check stores on Monday were (in this order): main one - Wrexham, and then Chester and Winsford.

    I did notice, separately, that the Smirnoff Apple Bite was £1.87 SEL in Wrexham on Monday because this was already on £1 last week so it was an item that I needed to check for in my first store. Having found it saying £1.87 and suspecting that that price was incorrect, I then carried that item over to check the price showing in a further store (which happened to be Chester) later that day. I was happy from Chester that it was on offer of £1 with a clear stated expiry date so clearly £1 is the price. I therefore may or may not have confirmed that again in Winsford - though I did also check the alcoholic drinks aisle there for anything extra that Winsford had that neither Wrexham nor Chester had given me.
