    Yep, you're right Forgetful, 12 the same works (I've amended my post) - but then only 10 show on apg instead of 11 so less apg.

    Also if you buy 12 of the same you only have 1 of your unique barcodes needed, whereas 11+1 gives 2 of the 8-10
    The end is nigh

    Was wondering that earlier in A's. So I got extra fillers just in case.

    I thought it was the same APG? Unless you stick to 12 the same and then lose 2. If you buy 11 the same, plus one different one, you will get 10 showing of the one you bought 11 of, but will also have the different one = 11 showing. That's the same as buying different flavours but with one, trigger, not showing.

    The trigger is still off a.com isn't it? I ask because I can see a Banana Chocolate Flakes corner but I don't think that's the right one? The significant benefit of the trigger, rather than 11+1, is that it contributes different items to the APG and, if you have enough varieties available in your store, need few or no fillers. Buying 11+1 gives you just 2 items on the APG, so it will cost you more as you then have to pay for 6 additional items at least.

    EDIT: I now see the OP is 12 the same. Why would anyone do that? And then have to buy at least 7 other items.
    I often don't read things at first:rotfl:.
    I've decided my sausages vs W, which were N/A, would have been better vs S, with Mullers, like every item that is best or equal best (in this case N/A against everywhere) vs S. You may already have non-Muller items that you were going to buy vs S. However, you don't need a full 8 item shop of non-Mullers now. If you have enough Mullers showing, then every item on any full shop vs S that you would have done is now cheaper if bought by itself alone in single unit purchase only (unless it's A mbuy price as best price vs S N/A for example - so rarely is A best on its own prices though - it's nearly always better comparing something or something else against a competitor). Any multiple purchases of a non-Muller item, other than those strictly to get an A mbuy price, should not be made but further purchases of the same item are now each better if put individually onto a separate shop as that gives another £1.02 off. And there's no need to go beyond having 8 appearing items - any additional items should be put each individually onto a separate shop each with yet more Mullers until such point as you have bought all units of the trigger from your store:rotfl:. My milk would have been better taken off the W shop and put by itself alone onto a shop with Mullers and would then have cost £1.02 less. Every item would, that is the same or better vs S, unless strictly necessary to have eight items on the W shop - and even then it's no use having anything N/A but need every item to compare to a W price better than anywhere else or equal best to T and/or M - anything the same comp. or same N/A against S is now best vs S with Mullers and costing £1.02 more to buy it on a different comparison.

    That's definitely different from this isn't it?:
    https://groceries.asda.com/product/corners/muller-corner-banana-yogurt-with-chocolate-flakes/910000562171

    I can't remember if the one at my link was there yesterday or not. I think I am looking at it in too much detail as trying to see if it is still off a.com today. I think the trigger is Crunch Corner Vanilla Chocolate Balls & Banana Chocolate Flakes 135g (as pictured in your post) rather than Corner Banana Yogurt with Chocolate Flakes 135g.

    I am about to confuse everyone:rotfl:. Just stick to the one you've shown and it's fine.
