He was in the long shot...:rotfl:

Just perfect.

Just catching up on the breakfast bars zippy.....had I been around I would have gone for those. Mr TM takes them out on his bike.

Unfortunately I’ve just been buying stuff willy nilly again.

I don’t know what’s wrong with me:o:rotfl:

Expensive bread again in Marksies:o

Thanks savvy are these the multi pack flavour or just the salt and vinegar x

All versions of this range are multipacks but I know what you mean - they are just Salt & Vinegar: 6x25g packs of Walkers Baked Salt & Vinegar in the one bag.

(You mean are they the Walker's Baked Variety pack? No, they are not - that is a no-go as far as triggering is concerned - it is fully in stock - but it might be bought with EITHER (not both!) the Baked Salt & Vinegar or the Ketchup Crisps, and will appear and hopefully compare, only against M at £1 now as T's offer has ended:mad:. You'll want 3 for £3, obviously, and be careful on versions of Baked Crisps vs attempt against M, and indeed on the standard 6 pack Walkers crisps too, as M does not have all versions that A has. For instance, I saw a Walkers Pickled Onion 6 pack crisps winking at me last time I tried to find another standard 6 pack crisps I wanted, trying to trip me up. I wasn't having it - I do not have that one anywhere in M - even though it took me some time to find the Cheese & Onion flavour that I actually wanted: eventually I found it, one multipack left, on the bottom of another shelf. Ritz Bakefuls Salt & Vinegar only or the comparable Jacob's Cheddars/Cheddars Crispy Thins might be better items vs M due to higher individual price in A. Or the Kettle Bites:D, £1.89 individual A price, in twos - hopefully one of each of the versions of those that A has online will pick up M pricing.)

For the sake of 25p, might be best to buy them in Tesco today if you need them desperately this time (and if you can find stock there - might have more luck as at least it is not a busy weekend shopping night but a quiter Tuesday night, although it is before Christmas so maybe unfortunately it is not that quiet).

I'd say it was off already on the APG and is £6.39 on t.com - I wouldn't even go within 24 hours of an end date. If an offer is ending on 5th December (today), I would have completed all my shopping on 3rd December if I knew about it then - and if I found out about it later, I'll miss it out altogether. The APG usually changes to full price the day before and ruins any shopping I try against T:mad:. However if, later tonight, we see the Baxters soup shop against W also pick up T's expiring 4 for £3 mbuy, then the Tetley might stand a chance if receipts are in and checked before 6am tomorrow - although, even then, the price updates could have been at different times on t.com today and the Tetley could fail. You can otherwise wait for T to put the offer back on or be looking around for some alternative tea to compare against somewhere else.
