guess its defo been fixed now lol

Not necessarily

Remember the 25% off wine fiasco? They were quoted in the press as having fixed it but the glitch ran for ages afterwards (couple of days or so I think)

They just said they'd fixed it to stop a stampede :rotfl:

Hi,

I haven't had time to catch up properly as it's 1.20am (going out at 8am with family, wife WILL kill me), but I think I might have some news.

This coke seems quite cheap in M's, is it really this cheap or a misprice?

Not sounding desperate there at all. :rotfl:

I presume it's been answered whilst I've been off gallivanting LOL

I'm caught up and can't believe no-one answered at all. Awwww, poor zippy

Anyway, in theory that should work. Depends on T picking up the multi

Nice :T

4x2l qualifies for £1.60 clicksnap which you can redeem up to 3 times (even on one shop) :money:

That will make up for the fact your PP was capped at £10 since you can claim £4.80 back on these 12 bottles

[strike]So 12 bottles for £3.20 T v M after claiming back £4.80 through clicksnap
but you'd have to do it in 2 shops (8 in 1 and 4 in another due to PP cap[/strike] £4 isn't divisible by 6 so how is it working out the M price? Is it 3 for £2 maybe? In that case 8 and 4 won't work :think:

Even better for the lucky sods that still have coke zero showing on their MSL app for 100% cashback

Thanks, Easier for me if I only have TvM showing.and they are lined up (I fully appreciate you are in a rush so thanks for sharing all that you have :beer:)

I know you said in a previous post that regular coca cola didn't work but I think there is potential for all of these to glitch

From this I can see that Ms non-multibuy single price is £1.98 that means these 8 bottles that cost £7.96 in M (that's 1.98+2.56+3.42) have to be made up of 2 comparing at full price (£3.96) and 6 comparing at a multibuy of £4

We saw previously that 12 compares at £8, so by process of elimination, multibuy is not 2 for £1.33 or 4 for £2.67 because if that were true 8 would have to compare at £5.32 and you've shown that 8 actually compares at £7.96 :T

So, it must be either 3 for £2 or 6 for £4 that is getting picked up

I say play safe. if anyone is doing this buy 6 to compare against M at £4 and claim £1.60 from clicksnap and £1.75 from MSL (if you see that offer) :money:

That's potentially 6 bottles of 2 litre coke for 65 pence if you do TvM and claim through clicksnap/MSL :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

if anyone buys/wombles 3 bottles of coke in T then please check your results to see what price is picked up in M. Just out of curiosity is all, I'm pretty sure 6 is the best number to buy :rotfl:

Thanks again Damoc :T

You have no idea how many times I edited that post til I was happy (and I just changed it again) :rotfl:

Just thinking, I have a £3 off wys £20 till spit. That would go beautifully with this glitch

I can't believe just a few hours ago we were getting nostalgic for 8x330ml coke at a cost of 42p and now we can (potentially) get 6x2 litres for 65p :rotfl:

Where the freaking heck is everyone?
