For your information:

Does this compare the same way against M who I also have at £9 each today? However, given that I'm told the Martini Asti, which was already on £6 on Wednesday, does not work vs M I wouldn't hold out my hope!

In M today, the offers generally remain the same. However, M seem to have been having a clear out of some frozen food items over the weekend whilst I was away from them:mad:. As I am regularly in M, I am the last to know again and find out way too late. I tried to find some Free From Chicken Steaks 400g, £1 in M reported nearly a week ago - no luck on those. My M told me, probably belatedly, that Birds Eye 42 Crispy Chicken Dippers had gone to £1 RTC but I had no luck finding stock now.

I also overpaid on the fish bites last week:( which was the wrong time to buy them. They have indeed gone from 50p to 25p this week. And I also overpaid earlier when I bought a 42 pack of Bird's Eye Crispy Chicken Dippers from A at its offer price of £2.50. That worked out at only a little worse than the 10% off on the 24 pack against T when T had its offer of £1.50 on those.

In turn there were prices of 85p RTC at T and 50p at S and A (which I never managed to find stock of the product) earlier that had, of course, been better but had long gone and I was never able to get again. I eventually had to go for £2.50 at A. Only for M to go to £1 RTC on the 42 pack:(:mad:. It was hopeless finding any stock, as I seem to have caught this after the event and only had a SEL in one store that seemed to be there only because they hadn't quite removed it yet. That could be wrong though as, I don't know, they could replenish stock later in some places although it seems like it's already gone to me. Some of my other stores seemed to have had the product but gone complete no trace, with the 24 packs now covering across the shelf, with only a price label on the left and seeming to cover a space where the 42 pack could have been.

I did have the chance that the APG might, for all of two days, pick up £1 from some store today but probably then go no trace. However, I notice they are now no trace for A on msm:mad: with £3 for T and T should not compare against RTCs. They were on £2.50 offer in A some weeks ago - where are they now? They have got to have gone somewhere.

M did have two different Birds Eye fish inspirations on £1 RTC but I didn't want those, I wanted the Chicken Dippers.

In addition to the Freixenet Prosecco, which now turns out to be the same one as the one in A (I was looking for "...Prosecco White" as per [Strike]msm's description[/Strike] the SEL from my A instore but kept finding "Freixenet Prosecco D.O.C." in M - I noted it though to cover this very situation), I have a couple of wines that were no trace for M online. I wouldn't hold out much on either of them though: I had one of them in all four of my stores but no specific SEL for it in any of them and another wine in one of my stores but, again, with no SEL specific for it - so it seems they would be very dodgy comparisons to me. I wouldn't even know if M were a favourable price for a comparison until I look at that later.

I had another where I kept getting the White Wine version in my stores but was looking for Rose that I did not find. I found in one store a different wine of the same brand that was on RTC - again that may be something that just happens to be left in that store (I didn't have the RTC item elsewhere) but from this I can't rule out that M hasn't had the Rose version, that A has, and that M still has it on RTC somewhere and it could be that a price collection store has an RTC item that I don't have. So, unfortunately, as I haven't found the rose wine, I can't put it on the list or say that M has it - but there is a probably somewhat small possibility that I haven't got something, you could compare against some other competitor but then find that M turns up more favourable and none of us knew before about it. I don't think that's likely, but it just could happen.

I've got a rather large voucher now to use - wish I'd done 2 shops with just 3 bottles in each now ...
All of my fillers were good - some NA but the others all gave me a few extra pence. I tend to get fillers I need or ones that can go into food bank collections rather than 10p sweeties.
Ta for the OP this morning who was also going to have a try, you gave me the courage - I have now got my gorgeous NZ wine that I really wanted (which none of my Twine boxes that I returned on Friday had)

Has the Villa Maria, that was £7, gone to £6 in M today?

It think it has. I did a double-take in my first store when I saw £6 price, and then kept the product noted down for a second store just to make sure that that was what I was getting. I note Google cache appears to have £7.00 for M but the current page on m.com for the product now says £6. If this was a £7 offer that has now ended, it seems it was best to let the offer expire: the product is now showing £6. It may be best to wait for the Monday collection to be updated on the APG (and then hope the product hasn't dropped off the M comp. altogether).
