# data[].attributes.body
Today we spent some time looking at how deceptive it can be when you see an amount of something and guestimate how much you think it weighs, especially if you measure out three different things using the same scoop and each weighs slightly differently depending on what is in the scoop!

Some great work done today with our animals, feeding, cleaning and checking their diets are being monitored according to their weight and we aren't over or under feeding them! Some good use of traditional and digital scales, measurements for water and liquid vitamins, and comparing how comfortable we are with new metric measurements - grams/kilo grams rather than lbs and ounces. Definitely one to practice when we go shopping - make sure you are comparing the same weights per pack size.

Is the Supermarket Comparison App free?

The Trolley.co.uk app is free to use and always will be to perform UK supermarket comparison. That's right, no monthly subscriptions, no annoying ads, or sudden in app purchase requests. Trolley.co.uk is UK's largest online supermarket comparison app, comparing groceries at over 16 superstores to help people and shoppers across the country save up to 30% on their grocery shopping. We're in this together!

Which supermarkets do you compare?

The Trolley app helps you compare cheap grocery prices at Aldi, Asda, B&M, Boots, Co-op, Iceland, Morrisons, Ocado, Poundland, Sainsbury's, Savers, Superdrug, Tesco, Waitrose, and Wilko. We're working to add Amazon, Lidl, and Farmfoods to Trolley.co.uk. Feel free to give us a hand by requesting them to join via Twitter!

How does it compare as a MySupermarket Alternative?

We're a brand new app which means we're not as complete as MySupermarket once was yet which we know is a real shame - for us too! However, we're a small team out of Birmingham that's working every day to hopefully get our supermarket price comparison app closer to what MySupermarket was for all of us. We're taking it one step at a time and so far, we have Price History, Price Alerts, Barcode Scanning, Daily Deals, and the ability to Group Lists By Store with new features being added almost every week.

Is there anything different to the MySupermarket App?

Trolley.co.uk helps you with more than just grocery shopping price comparison. Using the app, you can create shopping lists of your favourite products and choose which shops you'd like to buy them at, automatically being sorted into lists where your favourite groceries are stocked cheapest at those stores. Using lists, you'll be able to compare prices and create ready-made lists for saving up to 30% on your weekly shop without having to do any planning. Saving you money and time!

Can I compare prices at Asda, Tesco, Aldi, Sainsbury's and other supermarkets?

Absolutely, using the Trolley.co.uk app, you'll be able to easily compare prices on all of the products, items, or groceries a supermarket has available, including find cheap prices on popular brands like Nescafe, Pampers, Hartley's and more.

What's the cheapest Supermarket?

There isn't always a "cheapest supermarket", but supermarkets sometimes do stock items cheaper than other supermarkets for different products, and in other instances, stock different items more expensive than other supermarkets at the same time. Get the Trolley app for free to find out which is which!

Did you know faulty electrics such as overloaded sockets and faulty electrical appliances cause around 7,000 house fires across the country every year?

General Advice

When using electronic devices always use the official charger and don't be tempted to use cheap counterfeit replicas instead.

Ensure that you replace all damaged cables and chargers.

Make sure all electrical appliances have a British or European safety mark when you buy them.

Don't overload your sockets - keep one appliance to one plug where possible and use the socket overload calculator to reduce the risk of fire.

Unplug appliances when you are going to bed or not using them.

High powered appliances such as washing machines should have a single plug socket.

Never use square box plug adapters, and if using a strip adapter/extension make sure it's fused and don't overload it.

If using a cable drum extension lead, it should be completely unwound to avoid overheating.

Never put anything metallic in the microwave.

Do not leave your washing machine on overnight or when you go out.

Clean the filter on your tumble dryer regularly and remove fluff.

Clean behind the fridge and freezer in order to avoid the blocking of air vents.

Don't leave electric blankets folded when storing them over summer months as this damages the internal wiring - store them flat or rolled up.

If your electric blanket isn't thermostat controlled, unplug the blanket before you get into bed.

Don't buy second-hand blankets - check your blanket regularly for wear and tear.

If your blanket is over 10 years old, replace it and dispose of the old one at your nearest recycling centre.

Socket Overload Calculator

Are you overloading your sockets?

Overloaded sockets can easily cause fires, which could be easily prevented. Use the socket overload calculator to plug in some typical household appliances to see the effect on the load, and to get useful tips on how to avoid overloading your sockets.

Register your electrical appliances for a safer home

Only 36% of consumers register all of their large domestic appliances.

The register my appliance website is designed to make it quicker and easier for the public to register all of their appliances. It provides up-to-date, accurate, contact information for owners who have acquired specific models of appliances within the last twelve years, so manufacturers can issue safety updates or repair notifications to the right homes. The website provides access to the registration pages of over 40 leading brands of domestic appliances, including most of the UK's top-selling brands of major white goods.

Other electrical items should be registered with the manufacturer when you purchase them. They can be checked for recalls and registered using the Electrical Safety First website.

The site above also gives advice on what to do if you get a recall notification.
