    Di the crisps have gone into a new link save offer this morning, 3 for £3.00 Now 118 items.

    It is showing online for me and discount does come off when added to shop.

    Worth a check as maybe showing different things, in different browsers. It wouldn't be the first time.

    Showing 3 for £3 on the A app for me. Oddly MSM is still showing 2 for £2 (I m ow they don't use this for APG but may suggest the old offer was still there this morning for a while ... or just a delayed refresh of data!). Edit 9am - 3 for £3 now showing on MSM too.

    I have enough so will not be checking - these end of multi glitches rarely go into another day.

    I got the small individual Caramel eggs and Lindor eggs this lunch time in smaller Sainsbobs 25p each. 5 pack of creme eggs was 90p (tried to find them in Aldi for 79p but nothing left at all). They had quite a lot of stock left compared to the bigger Sainsbobs store. How right this is, will remain to be seen tomorrow - young SA restocking said everything left in the morning is going to 70% off.


    Just going to sainsbobs now to check if the young SA was right about big reductions on remaining easter chocs/cakes today

    Received a Wilkinson razor in the post today.
    Thanks to TM for posting.
    I now have a free razor as i didn't participate in the sharpie shopping.

    I didn't :(. I got an email saying they had all been given out (... to Elite :D) but they sent me a £4 off voucher for use on their website against one - no way would i be paying that much for one, even after the voucher!

    I messed up with a couple of Quavers in a. vT shop too :(. It looks like while the £1 in T offer ended and the old price was retained in the APG for some crisps, for these they were full price and were just going to £1.

    Ah well, they will be eaten.
