    I've done a shop in A (going my own way again) - I was trying to test something but I've bought the wrong item:rotfl:. So I won't see anyway:doh: - and it doesn't matter too much on my shop as the competitor I was targetting is the same price on the version I bought. If anyone wants to try, I've no need to do another shop, they can - I should have bought the Soreen Fruity Five Loaf (260g), Avs 60p in T, but picked up the Original Malt Loaf instead. I don't think there is any Fruity Five loaf in my A. They seem to be thin on the ground. I was trying to see if the Fruity Five loaf has disappeared from the price collection stores as it's gone from every M for me apart from two £1 SELs with no stock - it's fwiw curiosity that killed the cat again as it should be vs T at 60p.

    Fortunately I did not buy the 190g version of Original loaf at 50p:D. I walked past it and wondered if my different size was better - and it turns out, by weight, it is as it's a bigger loaf. So it was still a savvy shop as 10% off T hopefully works out better. I just need it to compare:rotfl:. I wanted a malt loaf anyway - and if someone wants the Fruity Five version, has it in their store and is targetting T...

    Zippy have you bought the Indian Takeaway deal for £10, I see some of the items in the meal deal are in my picks. :cool: If can get extra 20% on the curries and sides might be worth doing with my conditional spend. :money:

    The big pack of Salad Tomatoes (750g) started comparing against M. I noticed that the SEL display in M in Wrexham on Monday now called them "Salad Tomatoes" although elsewhere - Sheldon on Wednesday used as my main collection store - still called them "Bumper Tomatoes". I wonder if the change of description on a SEL in M is the reason why they have started to compare, a bit like the Mixed Peppers fell off earlier because M SELs described them as Salad Peppers. Or maybe another theory that is completely wide of the mark:rotfl:.

    In M in Sheldon, I had some coffee canisters at 29p store specific RTC - there may be more later as I pick up random items all over the place at different points. They were some other coffee cannisters at 25p in Wrexham before but they are now long gone, at least from there - and I've yet to see them anywhere else since.
