    I got a full refund from HE (well almost, I paid for the cancellation option incase it didn't work)

    I have cashback pending via TCB at the moment but it didn't affect my "free if" claim

    Ditto, I always take out the insurance. First refund I got, was gobsmacked that the insurance money was refunded as well. :D

    Do you mean AVM?:o:o:o (Could resist the correction:rotfl:. I'm sorry - I'm worse than someone I used to have at work that kept correcting other people's work with a red pen - I think because they used to be a schoolteacher.)

    I have this:

    comparing on a current womble against M a bit cheaper (£2.47 M price, I assume adjusted). However, Aldi is £1.89 (for 1Kg) and therefore works out cheaper. Tbh, I don't really bother with these in M anymore - I think I had some Thighs/Drumsticks etc. on the list a while ago against hypothetical prices for M (I don't think I saw if they ever worked) but, at one stage, they got removed, probably because Aldi is cheaper and therefore haven't returned, as not good enough for the list.

    Separately I don't know if anyone is interested in an M Food Storer at £2. It is a huge 7L container, which therefore technically works out good price per litre - however it does see you shelling out those two pounds:eek:! It's been in M for at least about a week - it didn't make the list last week as the £2 price was, well, a number of pounds and therefore wasn't seen to be good. I've been one mind and then the other about whether to add it to the list. It's still there as of this weekend and I was just walking past it but, by my fifth store, I finally succumbed and wrote the details down. So, I have them written down - again! I'm mentioning it here - not sure whether to put it onto the list. If I lower the bar and everything gets onto there, it's already long enough as it is!

    Evening All,

    Speaking of ale. I've just found a wombled receipt in my pocket from Friday night, checked it and have got a not too shabby £3.03 back, mainly thanks to this AvM comparison.

    5x Brewdog Dead Pony Club Session Pale Ale (330ML) £10.00 £7.65

    Never heard of this ale and with a name like that it doesn't sound too appetising. EDIT, ignore using with the trigger as Dead Pony is not in an offer.

    Here's the full AvM comparison.

    1x Grower's Selection Blackberries (150G) £2.00 £2.00
    1x Chefs Special Kashmiri Lamb Rogan Josh Main for 2 (400G) £3.25 N/A

    May been have mentioned before (possibly by me too) but I have it on good authority that the Ch4rlie W3lls IPA cashback (still on the shelves in A - £4 for £5 - 3 codes required to claim from the blue neck label) claims work on email and bank account as identifiers, after two refunds each received for myself and Mrs Anon ;). Paid £15 for 12 bottles, refunded £20 ... shame I don't like it :(.

    I've got 36 bottles of this for my family and friends but not tried it yet, was hoping it would be okay, I'll drink most beer though (even Carling).

    Is it wrong that I actually preferred C4rling to this :o?

    Have all your family claimed or are you doing it on their behalf ;).
