It looks like the Jacob's Crackers for Cheese (250g), that were back at £1 in M on Sunday (having possibly been £2.43 for four days) are now :mad:back at £2.43 again - unless I have all stores that haven't changed their SELs! However, I noticed 450g Jacobs Crackers for Cheese was on £1.50 RTC in T (having popped into Mr T on the road back, as it was that store that had all that cheap RTC cereal the other week - sadly best they could do now was £2.23:().

£2.43 for M online - who can tell?!? They don't look like they are £1 anymore - however, even if they were, the box at T would work out cheaper by weight than M:p.

As it now seems to be just me posting (several times), I'm going to call it a night! See you later:wave:.

So am I, now I'm back:rotfl:.

Now that I think about it, hopelessly after the event, the Paterson's could well have been 2 for £1.50 in M on Monday collection day (assuming they did a collection then) and who's to reckon that they were 2 for £1.50 in M up to and including Tuesday? They could well have been, if the supermarkets follow each other's offers and end around the same time. I had 2 for £1.50 but I saw £1 on msm and unfortunately thought I was out of date. It looked like the offer had ended in M on Sunday from msm - however maybe this is a case of prices online being changed a day early for tomorrow's delivery and msm picking up the new price for M a little early. I did have the mbuy around in M on Tuesday. Unfortunately I was concentrating elsewhere on the additional and seasonal items and I probably failed to notice the bigger picture! They could have been 2 for £1.50 in M but I didn't scan them (it's enough with mbuys that are/aren't off at the moment, tell you:(:rotfl:) and no-one here would be buying them in M at that price. I believe that has, now, expired - had straight £1 showing in my Ms on Wednesday so that is over in M. The only hope is that APG stores fail to remove the mbuys from their displays:rotfl: - however, I think not!

I did shout, including the fact that I thought I saw 2 for £1.50 on Tuesday (days blend into one another) - however that was just one store (not enough for me to say what pricing they were and I didn't notice the product elsewhere (wasn't looking for it)). I didn't shout loud enough as I didn't think it would work and :doh:didn't want people wasting their money!

M have been ending some offers on Tuesdays (as last day) lately during the holiday season though. That means they could well have been on offer on price collection day Monday (or Tuesday itself if that was the day due to Monday being a holiday).

If it's any consolation, the womble I picked up :(gives nothing against anywhere. Here is the Morries comp. - no use buying 4 pack chocolates:

14 items on your receipt qualify for comparison Asda Morrisons
1x ASDA Baker's Selection Chocolate Cornflake Mini Bites (18PK) £1.50 N/A
1x Plenty White Kitchen Rolls (2 ROLL) £1.35 £1.83
1x Cadbury Chocolate Spread (400G) £2.00 £2.50
1x ASDA Baker's Selection Flapjack Bites (26PK) £1.50 N/A
1x Big & Fresh 10 Eggs (10PK) £1.50 £1.50
1x ASDA Semi Skimmed Milk (4PT) £0.99 £1.00

1x Double Decker Chocolate Bar 4 Pack (4X55G) £1.00 £1.44
1x ASDA Grower's Selection Red Seedless Grapes (500G) £1.75 N/A
Comparison total (compared products only) £18.52 £23.63
cheaper +£5.11

There's nothing worth buying against anywhere! Thank goodness they don't pick up the Flapjack Bites as they may risk a much higher M price if any one of them is N/A! Christmas versions of similar products currently £1 in M (where available).

Even the Choux Buns are N/A against T:

1x ASDA Baker's Selection Chocolate Choux Buns (2PK) £1.15 N/A

They compare 'best' against W and S:eek::
1x ASDA Baker's Selection Chocolate Choux Buns (2PK) £1.15 £1.00

But no good - prices on other items much more expensive!

I love the Morrisons comparison!:D:rotfl::rotfl:

It's nice!:D

However, I do agree - air freshener ranges (more specialist ones) do vary between stores. You know how useless my local stores are on these!! However, the APG always seems to have what I don't:rotfl:. Not sure I would 'risk' that against M:rotfl: - however, that's again probably a sure comparison! (Famous last words:o:rotfl:.)

Mind you, with my luck against T - having my pasties return N/A:( - sometimes the T comp. can turn out to be more 'risky' than vs M:rotfl:. It's got 'worse', I think, since we can no longer rely on msm. Only slightly though as it usually works and, most of the time, it is versus M that doesn't. But sometimes T doesn't work whilst M does.

I think several air freshener items have just come off offer in M. I think:o:rotfl: - I was 'struggling' with them last Wednesday, trying to establish what, if any, were still on offer from different stores (some of which were showing me full price across all of a range, that's nothing to do with these items!) - I even had two of them scanned and they were on offer, so assumed that four in total were, yet msm had all four showing full price?!?:huh: I just deleted them all off my list as I was in doubt:rotfl::rotfl:. Yesterday, I'm still in some slight doubt - and I now have a Thai Refill with a SEL of £2 and 2 for £6:rotfl::rotfl:. Others showing £4 and 2 for £6 (I think it's because of mix and match - however, even then it's the Thai at £2 and then paying for the other at full price £4 is... £6!:rotfl:). Of course the ones that appear now to be £4 individual appear to have gone up in price from £2! The Thai refill was 'on its own' for different weeks at £2, during which others around it went off offer as others around went to offer. Whether it's still £2 I have no idea, but it would seem to be 2 for £6 pricing might be picked up if two are bought in A, after the update from yesterday's collection, due to that SEL.

The above is nothing to do with the above item, so don't worry about that!:cool:

I'm glad there's nothing exciting that I would buy as I can have a day off from the shopping:rotfl:!

I'd like to thank you for the glitches against M, because they were also very useful. They allowed me to get my milk cheaper than Aldi/Lidl given that Aldi/Lidl went up in price:

1x ASDA Semi Skimmed Milk (6PT) £1.45 £1.45:T

I actually ran out of milk on Tuesday evening and waited until Wednesday morning to see if anything would glitch against M or else I would just buy it straight at Lidl (as nearer to me). But, it counts as an item that I don't now need to buy elsewhere! Good timing; thank you very much!

Shame they didn't use M in Warrington and didn't use just that one store and no other a few weeks ago!:rotfl: That was still showing £1.30 price on the milk quite some time after it had gone up to £1.45. I visited other stores later though and quickly corrected to the correct price:(. I think I've corrected yesterday (hopefully to the correct price, although no good for us) on the Clayton Park Meat & Potato Pie that those of you in the North West of England may have. I thought that was due to end its offer this week - that's why I used stores in the North West! This isn't the family pie, which is still (according to SELs;)) £3, but is the smaller one. I had £1 offer still showing (and now they're not putting end dates on a lot of their SELs:mad:) - however two other places have full price and I believe they are now that, with the Clayton Park Cottage Pie now moved to the £1 (that was showing full price in the earlier store but, clearly I think, they hadn't updated that section of shelving yet). Hopefully I have the correct position:rotfl: - someone can tell me if it's not!:cool:;););):rotfl::rotfl:

I don't know why I mention these pies - they are obviously not the cheapest ones:rotfl:!

What I ought to mention - oh, yes:( - the biscuits that have long been 2 for 70p in M - are now 2 for 75p. So it looks like that price may go up on the APG soon (if it has not already). There's 75p straight on some crisps but - no good:rotfl:. (I liked how one of my stores had still kept the old 2 for £1.50 up around it at the moment - thus giving the game away:D! To be fair they have not been straight 75p and it wasn't possible to get one pack only for 75p (unless it was whoopsied and then could be even cheaper - this may now help to bring those prices down a little).) We need a crisps glitch - I've come back home and noticed :mad:that, whilst I've been out, they've used nearly the entirety of that 50p bag (of 30 pack crisps!) I bought from T:eek::eek:! That will now go into hiding given there are now so few bags left:mad::mad::rotfl:. At least they lasted beyond Christmas - which, to be fair, they were bought for:cool:.

Anyway - I'm now signed off for the night, see you later:wave:.
