    Hi

    the only wine glitch is with the meal deal you get £3.29 back per £10

    Plus you get 5% back on 6 and there are a lot of £6 off on £60s floating around...

    Trouts Christmas night out on Mr T

    Imagine it’s December and the stage is all set,
    For the Trout’s Christmas party, the first ever yet!
    A wooden shacks the venue,
    It measures 10ft by 8,
    Arthur’s the bouncer (T`s butcher)
    he will be on the gate.
    Fake snow is falling, no expense has been spared,
    (actually it’s Persil powder from a glitch that was shared)
    The buffet is laid out, it’s looking kind of retro,
    Mavis (The deli lady) prepared it using a cookery book,
    that’s very old.
    Cheese and pineapple on sticks, sausage rolls,
    even some vol au vents, filled with only god knows.
    The bar is well stocked with drinks for the ladies,
    Babycham, Cinzano Bianco, Advocaat and Dubonnet,
    That all come with a optional cherry!
    Worthington E for the guys, after all it’s the taste that satisfies,
    There’s more to offer, guys don’t fret,
    Save your banter for the female Santa.
    Her name is Betty (from the canteen)
    Guys don’t feel low, she looks just like Marilyn Monroe!
    The Trouts have arrived without any fuss,
    As they step from the mini bus the north wind does blow and
    They get covered in fake snow.
    They enter the shack (looking like snowmen) and sit down to eat,
    When Mr T starts his rather long speech.
    “Its been a bad year, sometimes a battle,
    with the MSE`er`s looking for good value.
    So stick to your training and don’t give in,
    Please Please Please remember not even a grin“.
    He went on to say…..
    “The profits are up I’m happy to say,
    I feel a new yacht coming my way“. :eek:
    Head of Trouts Beryl (CS lady) stood up and said,
    “Around of applause for Mr T, “(she sounded like one of the Simpson’s-maybe Bart).
    But no, all you could hear were some little *arts.
    The evening fell flat, too much had been said,
    The Trouts went home hungry and went straight to their beds.
    The very next day, (which was bright and cold) in the staff canteen the buffet was being sold.
    Betty, the female Santa,( keep up ^^ )gave Mr T lots of rude banter, about the speech he had made, and how he stabbed the Trouts in the back.
    T replied “tough you are now all sacked”
    So if your out of work and fed up eating porridge there’s a staff less store close to Norwich.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Can anyone help me out
    Just been back to local where I boo booed with the fanta DTD yesterday
    Couple of 3 for £2 sels still there
    Bought 6 sprite
    Charged £10.68
    -2for£3 -1.68
    -3for2 -3.56

    In end they just gave me £6 (my total bill came to £8 and I had £2 of normal shopping ) so I figure I got them for free
    Still can't get my head round the maths though lol!

    Ok here's my attempt at maths with the flu:

    Assuming that the bottles were the same price then ..

    1.78 each
    6 * 1.78 = £10.68
    3 for £2 = -£3.34
    3 for £2 = -£3.34
    Total savings = £6.68

    Your savings = £1.68 + £3.56 = £5.24
    Overcharge = £1.24
    DTD = £2.48

    The 2 for £3 saving should have been £4.68 not £1.68 so you were diddled by £3 if that had been the real offer but then you were given the 2nd saving of £3.56 so if the offer had been 2for£3 then you would have been 56p up (or 1/3 of a bottle). Given than none of the savings was correct according to the SELs you did very well indeed to get given your £6 back.

    You only actually paid £5.44 for the 6 bottles so you ended up 56p in profit!!! Well done! :T

    I think the maths is right but I reserve the right to blame the lurgy on any miscalculations.
