    Probably what's known as a 'dump' code - used for items where there is no price on the PLU, and the 1p can then be overridden on the till to the correct price. ;)
    I only exist in my own mind - if you can see, hear or read me, you are a product of my imagination.

    No reliance should be placed on the above.

  • Managed to get two mice from the Halifax store. the game was no where to be seen but they did try and find it as it was showing 4 in stock!

    The staff were dead excited and ofcourse took the rest of them off the shelf for their own consumption!

    Just been and collected mine with my print out sheet. No problems at all. Man at desk said what is it (as just says 'sega' on sheet) so he went and got it for me and had a smile on his face. I took it to checkout and the lady said what a bargain must be some sort of error on the system. No queries or problems at all though. Have to admit i thought i was going to have to argue a little but nice one. Id been looking to get one of these over the last couple of weeks for my new laptop. Was tempted in WHSmith the other day as they had one at £7.49 down from £14.99. Didnt bother with the game as i didnt need it. I know these bargains come up sometimes but i think if we all be reasonable and oonly have what we will make use of and not be silly about it then it means we have more of a chance and we can all benefit. If someone went in and took the lot of the stock in one go then to me that would be unfair on others. Thats just my opinion anyway. Now if we were talking choccy bars then i would just have to clear the shelves!!!
