    Once, when Sainsbury's had a different EPOS programming, the 2-for-1 and other reductions were cumulative in that the first item would ring up at discounted price, then the second, then the credit for the second item at the full price. One night through sheer luck I got a carrier bag full of kiwi fruit and was paid 40p to take them away!

    Most EPOS systems don't combine discounts any more sadly...

    I was reading just the other day on ukhotdeals about Tesco doing exactly that, people buy loads of mince and being paid for it. Lucky !!!!!!s :)

    I have to say I don't find B&Q plant pricing clear as I have seen clearance, 2 for 1, or so many for £5 with multiple stickers and signs everywhere.

    I've never been too sure myself what offer applied to what until I went to the checkout. But I assume only one offer applies at one time, I just don't know which one!

    I bought plants from them a few weeks back but didn't find the £5 multibuys confusing. There were 2, 2 for £5 at around £2.98 each or 3 for £5 at around £1.98 each. You obviously can't mix the £2.98's with the £1.98's.
