Thought this was brilliant, but before you buy the paper check that there is a free tutor available in your area. Only tutors with an asterix are taking part in the free offer. No free guitar lessons near me unfortunately. Hope everyone else is more successful.
Thanks anyway Nudge its a great offer for anyone who can get it.0 -

Anyone hoping to use this at Mr T may have an uphill struggle. It's the wrong type of barcode. It is not the universal barcode starting 99. It will not be recognised by Mr T's tills and therefore most likely NOT be accepted. It would need a supervisor override and have to be entered an a non-scan - something Mr T does not like.
Thanks a bunch Morrisons/The Scum or whoever for nothing.:mad:0 -
