    How did you get them all through self scan. I seem to get descended upon as soon as I put one item through and have to literally throw my money into the machine and scramble my stuff together.

    Even wondering if its flagged up on their monitor or something

    Or did you just make lots of journeys iamsohappy:j

    It was like a military operation. Some other groceries with one Tic Tac to check if it was 1p. DH scanning and scanned the Tic Tac first. When it went through at 1p without alarm, I raced back and got the rest of the box and he continued scanning the other groceries then I handed him one at a time with barcode up ready and he packed while I paid etc. Never left so fast in our lives. :rotfl:

    First time DH actually acknowleged how much can be saved ;)
    Smile :) and hopefully the world will smile back
