Frozen Chicken Fajita mix was buy in T or M until M went up in price when it became buy in T. However, T is now up in price whilst M is down, so it's now buy in M. (Again, I don't agree with msm as the price graph is showing it going down after 26th February but this was down in price on 22nd February so obviously online updating a bit late. And me updating even later:rotfl::doh:, although from information from before and offer supposed to be still on in M until 19th March, so still time yet.)

Says another word about M on seeing the BE Chicken Quarter Pounders going back up on M:rotfl:. I think they were cheaper than £1 in Farmfoods, unless they have gone back up too.

In Aldi, the 5Kg Essential Potatoes, as of yesterday, had gone back down a little - to £2.09. Making them cheaper now than the 2.5Kg Wonky Potatoes in M. However, I preferred to pay 41p more than Aldi to get more than twice as many potatoes (M Unwashed on BB date - store specific, whenever you can catch it):money:.

However they've put the 6 pint milk up in Aldi to £1.45:( (msm not quite caught up yet) and of course Lidl has done the same so, if you are just buying outright - need seven other items to compare against elsewhere in A for APG off next time - there's no sense to buying in Aldi or Lidl than there is just buying straight at full £1.45 with a womble in A. Excluding cost of travel to different places, which may make a difference. Unless you have colleague discount cards in which case buying in the place with the cards may make more sense, even if bought outright (i.e. not put onto a comparison shop) - but for the sake of a few pence, the nearest place is going to work out best unless you are doing a journey you would do already. Previously, buying on straight A price, if you were unable to get eight items to compare against elsewhere and thus not 10% cheaper, would have worked out paying slightly more than buying in Aldi/Lidl, again I am ignoring travel costs, but the price increase in Aldi/Lidl now means there is no more sense to buying there than in A and Avs elsewhere should work out cheaper than Aldi/Lidl in any event. Ignoring travel costs.

Alright, enough fun:rotfl: - see you later!

Morning.

AJ think I have just missed you

Ending today, Sheba 12 pouch box £4.94 each or 2 for £7.00

http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/asda/bundle/687070_2035879.html

6 of the 7 flavours should compare to Tesco 2 for £7.00 offer or £3.50 each at Sainsbobs (avoid the mixed selection in gravy as according to Mys only Asda stock it).

£9.88 v £7.00, making that about £1.80 a box (guesstimate )

(5 of the 7 flavours may compare to Morries £3.50, according to Mys.)


Check the offer comes off and the unit price hasn’t dropped after update (don’t rely on the SEL).

Good morning Elite.
Hoping everyone is warm, happy and well. Hugs to those not so.
My C&C from yesterday did not show as collected until this morning so comparison not checked until 7.15am. Not sure whether this still picks up prices from yesterday or today, but sharpies compared as previously.
