    I tried once with 4 x Jelly's and it didnt work.

    Went back in again and tried once more with a different combination but again it didnt work either then.

    Could OP post the specific flavours and barcodes of all the boxes you bought?. I suspect the glitch may be specific to the combination of flavours you bought?, or it may just be store specific :(

    Sorry for the delay, just read you post.
    It's certainly nothing to do with specific flavours apart from it must be the Jelly ones.
    I've just been back and got some more and picked up some of all the jelly varieties, different to what i did 1st time, put them through in one transaction and it still worked.

    It's certainly seems specific to some stores in that it works in both Portland and Hampden Park stores. It's just working out why in some and not others.

    Another reason could be that Head Office have sent a request to all stores to correct the glitch, but some stores haven't actioned this due to staff error.

    did you buy jelly only?

    Yes, all varieties of adult Jelly ones.
    I never tried the gravy ones as our 3 don't like them.
