Elite 11+ shopping and chat thread

Savvybuyer

The reason for the shopping earlier was that our freezer is nearly empty:o, just not been buying much at all with no real glitches on the things we would use. So I had to do a shop against T even at full price on essential items:eek:. Still better than the straight prices elsewhere at the moment.

I attempted a minor glitch - and it worked! A mix and match on these helped me get the 8 items:

1x Skittles Fruit Sweets (55G) £0.60 £0.40
1x Tic Tac Fresh Mints (18G) £0.60 £0.40

Bought with a pack of Maynard's Wine Gums on 3 for £1 (Wine Gums do not appear). Thanks Sal for that, again, from probably years ago - it's acted as an occasional tempter ever since:D. On this one, you do need either to buy both or to buy two of one as they are 2 for 80p at T.

And - they even pick up the 40p price on the Tic Tacs at M!

1x Tic Tac Fresh Mints (18G) £0.60 £0.40

Skittles returning 57p against M (I would not know - as no good price). The Tic Tacs are straight 40p in M. I was slightly surprised at the APG getting (what I believe to be:D) the correct price for M there as my experience has been that not many Ms have been showing the 40p offer. However, perhaps more have got it showing this week. Offer in M is supposed to be on until 28th June. (They might change SELs upwards on Monday!) The Tic Tacs are in various places in Ms - some around the SS areas, sometimes I peer around one of the staffed tills to have a look! I did see 40p prices in M yesterday. This shouldn't change for the rest of the week at least, although it could do so: but, as they've got the 40p price in their stores on Monday, wherever they get it from, I think it's less likely that it would suddenly change.

Look at Sains doubling the price of its Cornflakes:

2x ASDA Smartprice Corn Flakes (500G) £0.50 £1.00:eek:

So no good against there anymore. One of the few items and now, it's even more difficult. However, 1L CBY Veg. Oil is against S - useless against anywhere else it seems and, as A are cheaper on an own label item (Aldi are same price though), it's no use buying in any of the other main supermarkets as none of those now will give a voucher back to the price or match it - but, as A aren't 10% cheaper than one place, you'd now have to buy 7 more items at more cost than the 5p in 10% in order to get the 10% against S:mad:. Unless you have A discount card and then get 10% off 95p by just buying straight:cool:. Otherwise, may as well just buy at 95p:( if not already needing items against S.

My Sprouts picked up £1.00 price for M although we were desperate and I had to target T at same price:

1x ASDA Frozen for Freshness Button Sprouts (1KG) £1.00 £1.00

Goodnight - I'll see you later:wave:.

Good morning just looked out of the window and it is pouring with rain ...am hoping it will have cleared by the time we arrive in Cambridge as it is my Grandson's Graduation today:A am so looking forward to this and know I will get emotional so have popped plenty of tissues in the handbag ...then back home later to vote and then probably sit up all night to hear the results ..so a very busy emotional day ahead ..
