    A nice price increase in A, that took place earlier, now helps me to spend some vouchers.

    10 items (9 different) on your receipt qualify for comparison
    Asda morrisons
    2x Youngs 10 Flipper Dippers (250G) £2.98 £1.50

    Of course they will be better, in one sense, if they go onto unseen mbuy in A, as long as the M offer continues to be picked up, but sadly(?) they are £1.49 each. However, I would then have needed to buy more items:(, unnecessary extra spending, to make up the voucher spend. Unless I could then have spent fewer vouchers in the first place and thus kept one. However, I've now spent it:(.

    It may be that A wanted to make the Flipper Dippers less attractive to buy but, instead, for me, the price rise has made them more attractive and, if trying to make them less attractive was their aim, then it has totally failed and has achieved the precise opposite of what they wished:rotfl:. Quite common in fact of a lot of things, which can be no good if some things fail:( or can be, for me, a good thing indeed when I didn't like what someone wanted to do and wanted the precise opposite. It's then good for me when their actions - unintended consequence - (or can be omissions) actually achieve what they didn't want:):T:rotfl::p. Especially if those actions/omissions then achieve what I wanted instead.

    I like it when people do things, that I don't like, that fail. I'm naughty:rotfl::naughty:.

    :eek: Look at T's price on the New Potatoes!
    1x ASDA SmartPrice New Potatoes in Water (550G) £0.15 £0.33

    Fortunately they are (still) vs M at 15p. But not really any good on APG for Northern Ireland. There they are actually better vs Sains:eek: but lose a few pence against there so are best, for NI, kept off APG altogether.

    [Strike]M does have Oat So Simple Maple & Pecan at £1, but it's 353g so I am therefore going to be pedantic and say it's non-comparable.[/Strike]


    Quaker Oat So Simple Maple & Pecan (10 per pack - 350g)


    Store_1.15px.png
    £2.45 any 2 for £4.00 70p / 57.1p / 100g Valid until 11/10/2016

    Oh! I'm going to reverse that as I see, being pedantic again, this time right, that t.com says 353g so it should compare after all.

    You don't want Wombles for these. As you need to get another code from the pack you buy.
