I think it's no good. They're buying items at "cheap" A prices, when they work out more expensive.

Savvy I have reached the conclusion that we will never get these A shoppers trained:rotfl:

The Longlife milk is apparently 'best' against M at 88p. Except Northern Ireland where either T or S at 90p presumably. Round Lettuce non-comp. against both T and M - check that it hasn't been downsized with the price being lower than it was!:rotfl: The Tomato tin, fwiw, also 50p for M. I would have preferred KTC the other day!
