LOADS left in slough

The cashier looked very shocked and asked his manager if it was right! she said yes, its a glitch that hasnt been fixed yet and to just let it go through

but then another manager came over and said they're supposed to do it through another department now so its actually £10 (which it should be) but the other manager said ok we'll do that after this one so i still got them for £5.50

thanks op

I am sure I read somewhere that the glitch may be fixed by tomorrow just incase you are planning a special trip. Perhaps some MSE will be able to let us know if they are successful in the morning.

Got 3 boxes for £5.50 in Swindon today!

Before you all go rushing out tomorrow morning, the Supervisor told me that the bug with the till will be fixed "by tomorrow" - so expect to pay £10.

Not sure if that's nationwide fesdufun, but the staff in the Beverley store were helping customers to get them down from the shelves

But it's probably worth going early as you said.

Once they had decided to reduce the crackers, the only way to do it on the till system was as the promotion that gave you 3 boxes for £5.50. It always takes that long when they download the information into the system.
Now from tomorrow you will get 3 boxes for £10 or one box for £5.
