    Good afternoon

    Today results from my earlier shop giving a rather large APG of £38.99 :eek:

    Heidsieck Blue Top Champagne Brut is buy 6 save 25% instore only, so £20 a bottle less 25% £15 a bottle, Sainburys have just gone down to £15 a bottle APG doesn't see the 25% off so it's about £8.51 a bottle after APG, obviously there are other wines in the buy 6 save 25%.
    The cost of your shop at Asda was: £123.18 The competitor cost would have been: £93.55

    Compared to the 10% cheaper price Asda was £38.99 more Asda Not 10% cheaper

  • Yep I thought that, I might take a trip to Farnborough or Basingstoke, I hear it's the norm around there :p

    Rather you than me in Farnborough, they are a mare with Internet coupons, dread to think how they would react to that:eek:
