    What about people who buy biscuits at the same store and the same biscuits with the same code??????

  • I am baffled as to why it is so difficult for you all to grasp. At the end of the day it IS cheating by sharing codes and to try find a way around that is not sporting of any of you.

    It just goes to show the greedy society we have these days. Not content to win a prize fair and square but have to resort to cheating does not only show you all up but also the sites runners and owners.

    Some might say it's unfair if one person can buy 100 packs, yet another can only afford to buy 10......

    Ruby - they arent unique codes. On the hobnob shelf in Tescos they are about 40 packs with the same 4 digit barcode and 4 digit timecode. If I buy one pack, and everyone today buys one pack all 40 of us can use that code 5 times. So the system would receive 200 attempts at the same code today.
