I've given up trying to buy the apples from Sains. I bought some from A, with a womble, and even from M:eek:, even though, because I needed a different type of apple to Aldi's, I was paying a little bit more for my apples - and for my pears:(. I note pears in Aldi now at 69p. So it's 6p more to M in order to 'save' 25p on the apples, and therefore only a 19p deduction and even then ending up with 75p price (on the apples) instead of Aldi's 62p. But given that the ones at 62p in Aldi (or yesterday were) aren't Gala apples (the point is non-Braeburn apples really) - and there don't appear to be many good prices on apples around at the moment - it certainly seemed better than wasting 80p of Nectar points for just 5 apples from S:(. I've given up with them (for now) - not bothering to shop with them at all until they can come up with something worth buying. Of course, almost none of the points that I have available to spend (no rush, whenever:cool:) were collected by shopping at S - just about, I've found, the most inefficient way of collecting points! Inefficient for me = efficient for them. We are at total cross purposes and completely opposite aims to the supermarkets, and pulling teeth from them all the time! Or I'm a cynic:rotfl:. But it is actually cynical the way they do offers and promotions. And wouldn't you? If I was running a business to make money, I'd do exactly the same thing as the supermarkets do.

In a similar situation here, critically low stocks of apples and pears - I eat these as a hunger stifler before I start on anything more calorific. It's an absolute mind field every time you go out, always checking the size, price, variety and qualities of apples.

I also like the crisp hard ones like Braeburn or Granny Smiths and hate things like gala or golden delicious or so called fun sized apples.

Looking at mysupermarket the best price for apples seems to be 20p each but that does not take into account the actual weight.
Morrisons might have some suitable ones this week - at least in Morrisons you can weigh the bags of apples and make sure you are getting the biggest bag. I've wondered about taking my little electronic scales with me into Aldi

Sainsbobs seem to have 4 value apples for 80p - mine you I don't trust mysupermarket
