    No harm in uploading twice and when they decline the 2nd claim because the receipt has been uploaded already just email to explain it isn't actually a duplicate claim

    From what I've read they are quite accommodating with things like that

    Yes, they have been very helpful for a number of us previously, so worth uploading twice then emailing.

    Buy for £6.99 get £3.50 cashback on quidco clicksnap or checkoutsmart. They compare to £3.50 at T.

    Originally both companies allowed 6 redemptions each and then later launched another offer for 1.

    2 x 6 = 12.
    2 x 1 =2.
    12+2 =14

    Plus chance to double up if a significant other in your household with accounts :). The limitation for me was stock availability, but I have "a few" so not moaning ... too loudly anyway :D.

    You're up late tweets :)

    Well done scamps, nice win, I think I would like to be one of your dogs tonight, I would love a Chinese ;)

    Thanks for the congratulations for ds he is over the moon, he was quite worried as there was a lot going on at the times he was sitting exams X

    Rhosy I'm sure things will work out for your ds, things have a way of turning out just the way you want even when you didn't know that was what you wanted X

    LS I'm sorry to hear your son is struggling, you would have thought college would intervene somehow X

    Well, in theory, I did get more than 18p. I doubled my money as I got 36p:(. However, I'm not bothering with it though so I lose the 18p:wall:. 18p is 18p - I've lost more down the drains in the past in my life!!

    I thought so:

    ASDA Thin & Crispy Chicken & Sweetcorn Pizza (330g)


    Store_2.15px.png
    £1.00 30.3p / 100g

    • Store_8.15px.png
      ---
    • Store_7.15px.png
      ---

    This womble confirms that it comes back with M at - what a surprise!:laugh: - the same price:

    8 items (7 different) on your receipt qualify for comparison Asda morrisons
    1x ASDA Chicken and Sweetcorn Thin & Crispy Pizza (330G) £1.00 £1.00

    Therefore, not 10% cheaper on that item. However, no use there as they bought some £2 Fabric Conditioner yet again - same again, just no imagination whatsoever in the general population, when will they ever try something a bit different?:rotfl: -

    1x Lenor Fabric Conditioner Ruby Jasmine 37 Washes (925ML) £2.00 £3.37

    Fwiw, the Cheese & Tomato thin & crispy pizza also compares against M at £1 (ha ha, same price:wall::wall: so not 10% cheaper on it - but, obviously, 10% cheaper when bought alongside useless fabric conditioner:rotfl: - and it is useless as there is no way of getting any APG from the fabric conditioner at all at the moment - best comparison vs elsewhere is against N/A:p:rotfl::rotfl: - no use! - doesn't even give a penny!:rotfl:) but not getting the Cheese & Tomato thin & crispy as SP Pizza is Cheese & Tomato and is far cheaper and, surprise, it contains cheese (like the Cheese & Tomato thin & crispy) and it contains tomato (like the Cheese & Tomato thin & crispy) so I don't see what difference there is to me!

    Those 300g odd pizzas are expensive price by weight. Larger (weightier at any rate) pizzas can be found at the same price as that from time to time (in fact probably constantly at one place or another:rotfl:). The £1 offer has moved off the Goodfella's pizzas 408g-417g in M and onto some lower weighted Goodfellas pizzas there instead. I felt like I was being shortchanged when I saw the price was now on those:rotfl:. And even though I didn't buy anything:eek::rotfl::rotfl:. It does seem a lot worse than the price on the higher weight ones that was available on the previous collection.

    The Chicken & Sweetcorn pizza has been written down and is ready to appear on the M list in due course.

    Afternoon peeps. :)

    Just got back from A's to look for the cheap toilet roll, didn't find any as it's only a small one. :(

    On the way out, I remembered I had to get some tobacco. As I was paying the CS said 'anything else?' Normally I don't buy said I'll have a £2 scratch card. Scratched it on the bus home and I won £200. :D

    Having a take away tonight. :)

    Well done Scamps, that's lovely news :T
