ok so i bought the biscuits from asda

2 fingers
1 vinnies
potatoes
1 responsive deo
1 sensitive deo
1 flump
1giant mice
1 loaf of bread

so 9 items but when i go on compare it says not enough items! where did i go wrong??

Always get 10 items to be on the safe side and 2 of an identical item counts as ONE item, add a carrot and a packet of batter mix for around 20p

Me too...unfortunately, I'm just back from A's (bear in mind this involves 2 buses and about 40 mins each way). No Vinnie, so thought I'd try the WW. After 1st moc wouldn't scan, SA had to get till sup over, who phoned a manager.
A good 14 mins later and the result - only one per shop. He was very nice and apologetic about it though, so I just had the rest taken off the bill and left it there.

Might try the Tobelle tomorrow if it's still working....

Sorry you were only allowed to use 1 coupon per shop on ww meals. I was eventualy lucky that they let me use all 6 in one shop.
All the phaffing around, cashier making phone call, waiting for someone to answer, then wait for that person to come down to shop floor :eek: then she took coupons upstairs, when she at last got back to me it was 15 minutes that I had stood there.

Seems that sada are getting tough but are not consistent with their rules me thinks :cool:

The 2 fingers only count as 1 item and because the Vinnies don't appear on the comparison you need to buy something else to make up for them. So you've only got 7 items

You are not the first to make this mistake Multiples of an item with the same barcode are classd as 1 item and as LFB said the vinnies don't show on the APG:(

Re fillers : I've been buying various individual hot choc sachets. Something we actually use (unlike the 98 cheapo scrubber things I collected at first ) and lots of different flavours to get your number of items up.

Do have to check which are on offer where though but even if I mess up its only a few pence off the APG

You edited your post but in this extremely short succession of words, which cannot even be defined as a sentence, you didn't feel the need to say please?

We're all here to save money, manners are free!

Sorry did not meant to be rude however just to update i did say thank you.

Funny thing is though, I used 7 in Morries yesterday no problem. They scanned fine, yet in A's the SA had to input price and then till didn't recognise item. Odd.

You need 8 unique items on a receipt to generate an APG. Your shop only had 7 unique items in the eyes of APG. The glitch relies on the system not reading the vinnies biscuits so that doesn't count as 1. You only have 7 other items

Hi everyone

I must have picked up the wrong wine or not working in CH at 2pm today. I made a bee line for the ogio (red and white, 6 of each) - had seen ogio mentioned while skimming thread, but only one discount came off so I voided it at the till.

Couldn't find any Vinnie tins yesterday so thanks Fuzzgun :T shall look out for Toblerone next time
