    just reinvested in another 12 boxes (different store) and got walkers crisps with them with the invisible trigger. so the crisps should add another £1.20 to the apg. hope ive worked it out properly. so should be an apg of £19.70 ish

    Two lots of 12 by the sound of it :-). You'd need to buy in multiples of 2 to get the multibuy offer.

    Remember only a max 10 of one flavour will match.

    Typical, I've just done my shop and come back!
    What's the invisible trigger I have missed for the crisps?

    Also typical - those 75p lightbulbs I bought in A last week are now 30p:(. I feel really ripped off. I bought five packs - at 75p each:eek:. So, instead of paying £1.50, I have paid £3.75. It's as if, on my first three, I had missed an offer of 90p on an item but bought them at full price £2.25 and then bought yet more at full price! Store didn't have the ones I wanted anyway. Probably because I bought them out last week. I should have hidden them in the store and gone back for them today. Only finding out because of going for Nutri Grain. So, instead of 28p for Nutri Grain, it is 28p plus £2.25 lost = may as well have got lightbulbs today when I should have done and paid £2.53 for my first pack of Nutri Grain! It's the same equivalent. Assuming I even bought correctly on the Nutri Grains.

    Only buying a couple of packs:wall:. I thought they were full of sugar and didn't like them much last time. Noticed BB date of nearly a year away and would last longer anyway. About right for the amount I would use in that time. Well, maybe another couple of packs would have done but anyway.

    M are changing the points per giftcard from 25 to 5 per £1 from 15/10:

    Another change for the worst as customers have apparently asked they focus on lowering prices ...

    There is a pattern here and they appear to be colluding!

    How much is 25 points worth, as might stock up on B&Q and amazon cards if its worth it (and they sell them)

    5000 points converts to a £5 voucher.

    Their website shows 5 per £1 now but I am not sure if there is a promo on that adds to this as there has been in the past? Not sure which cards they stock but Amazon has been mentioned previously.

    The Hula Hoops Puft version were 87p in T but it looks like T have put the price up to £1.70 and it's already being picked up:(. Would have been great if it had worked today - one I've missed in previous days, under the impression there weren't any crisps glitches on. Anyway, 60p per 6 pack is too dear for me:rotfl:. Still got my Lidl 24 pack of Snacktastic (just about:rotfl::rotfl:) for under £1 a while ago, hoping it will last next month to its BB.
