    Had an email to say that it is my Nectar-versary. Nice of them to remember such an occasion, you would have thought they could at least have sent me flowers, or a card, or some points. But nothing!

    Deep sigh - I imagine it will be only the giant megastores that stock it :(

    My final comp. (unless somewhere resurrects a similar scheme in several years' time - we can but hope). I decided I needed some more Wheat Bisks before the system ended, so my last one (unless there is any glitching and system still on the go tomorrow) is actually vs M. A hopeless 60p on everyday items - probably spent more on the 'fillers' (we will use them though) than the 60p back:wall:. Can't even buy some fish fingers with that now:(.

    Far more worthwhile, I hope, was the wombles I managed to get (didn't expect many as it is a quite Tuesday - found none on my earlier shopping trip:() - however, to my surprise, people obviously came out shopping after the school run as there were absolutely loads at my other store! So I am glad I went back out after all:rotfl:. Maybe - I have yet to go through and check them: still waylaid on printing off vouchers I already have. I had to rejig this shop below as well - decided some Gravy Granules would help get something back - originally had two different Spaghetti tins but hopeless amount (and we don't need yet more spaghetti) and then had to have a loose carrot to get enough items. Having already put a second tin of carrots back (which I actually needed - will have to pay full price now:eek::rotfl:) as store didn't have another item for which I had to get a replacement and then trying to stick within voucher amount. Kerfuffle at the till, on my last APG shop, as despite working before recently on loose veg. with no problem (at least at the other store), the system now knocked 5p off the value of one of my vouchers:( - obviously didn't like my carrot. I got the 5p back but kerfuffle...!:rotfl:

    SP Wheat Bisks actually showing OOS for me logged in on msm (and such an OOS indication is usually accurate), but they are not.

    11 items (8 different) on your receipt qualify for comparison Asda morrisons
    1x ASDA Smart Price Tomato Soup (400g) £0.24 £0.24
    1x ASDA Smart Price Vegetable Soup (400g) £0.24 £0.24
    1x ASDA Gravy Granules (200g) £0.35 £0.20
    1x ASDA Smart Price Still Spring Water (2l) £0.17 £0.17
    4x ASDA Smart Price Wheat Bisks (24x18g) £2.96 £2.96
    0.08x ASDA Grower's Selection Loose Carrot (order by number of carrots or select kg) (per kg) £0.05 £0.04
    1x ASDA Smart Price Sliced Carrots in Water (300g) £0.20 £0.20
    1x ASDA Smart Price Milk Chocolate Bar (100g) £0.30 £0.30
    Comparison total (compared products only) £4.51 £4.35
    +£0.16 cheaper

    Fwiw now SP Gravy also comparing against T at 20p. Buy 'value' Gravy in M or T tomorrow/after tomorrow if A don't reduce their price back down (and we hope M/T stay at 20p:rotfl:).
