Kenco 3 in 1 Smooth Coffee with Sugar (200g) didn't seem too bad on price per unit - at £1.80 for the 200g, it's a lot cheaper than other coffee, such as M's own Gold Coffee that increased to £2.80 (I know, not comparing like with like) and Douwe Egberts Classic 200g at £3.50 offer:eek: (Poundstretcher is £2.99:eek: - still expensive as the M Gold own label is still cheaper). The Kenco 3 in 1 would have been T £2.19 vs M £1.80 - however I see it has been down to £1.47 in T in the past so it is not going onto the list.

(Yet the £1 more expensive M price Gold remains on the Avs M list:wall:.)

Hello :santa2:

Is anyone else still waiting for their Orchard voucher?

Quite a few of us had them arrive already. If you log on to orchard you can see when yours was shipped if that's any help?

I've done it again - I'm just incapable of taking details of products without noting down their weight. I thought I had not got the weight of the Cadbury Festive Friends the other week, even though it's undoubtedly the same in all supermarkets that have it. I knew from memory about the product, but then came across it on my page and saw that I had indeed written the weight down! I've now done the same on the Pork & Egg Roll - I'm just rechecking that it's price hasn't subtly changed by a few pence upwards - it looks like it is unchanged - and I've got 227g on the Avs M list (A's weight taken from online) - there needs to be a weight adjustment, hence I can't just see from the list without working it out again, and I thought I had not got the M weight. However - I notice, yet again - Pork & Egg Roll 86p (that's the straight M price) - 200g. I just can't write anything down without its weight:doh::rotfl::rotfl::T.

Incapable of incompleteness. Which you know is not right:D.

EDIT: In fact I don't know why I have the product - maybe there has been a downsize in M, but it has probably remained unchanged. I notice, with A at 227g, it's outside the weight range so I am removing it. A's version has compared against M on the APG before, usually adjusting the wrong way and making M more expensive:(. The price crunch in M that has been on it for several months now continues. At 200g, I think just buy it in M - however I am removing it from the M list altogether.

Ok, so five hokey kokey in(un)stalls I'm coming to the conclusion that it just doesn't blipping like me!

Can you get yours to work at all? I've tried with my iPad and with DH's iPhone and neither of them will recognise the advent calendar a time all. I even nipped into McDonalds to get a paper version to try, in the hope that might make some difference, but nope! I've tried turning the camera around and I've tried it with more and less light, but it just doesn't like me. I know it's doable as I got it to work on MIL's phone but haven't been able to replicate it! I'm also fed up with this iPad as I updated it so I could download Blippar, but now the keyboard has gone to pot, and I can't even get Blippar to work! Sod's law :rotfl:

Just a quick house update, the spare spare bed has arrived! Can't wait to get the pipework and flooring done so we can get it in there, or it'll be set up in the front room at this rate :cool::o:rotfl:

Yes it works perfectly Arthien - apart from it keeps telling me I haven't won! My phone is Android so I can't help with ithingys I'm afraid.

Twice? Twice! Once would be nice. :rotfl:

Just luck as I don't normally win much and I didn't delete the app and re enstate it either. Only had the one £10 so far though . I'll need to email them if I can find the address I suppose. Always seem to be chasing someone up
