    Depends what you're trying to achieve. 1 of your meal deals will trigger, because 2 puddings will make it trigger. It will get complicated at CS because they'll be confused by this. You should, however be ok on the other 2 meal deals, but good luck with them working out what your DTD is...

    It's the Garnacha btw, not to be confused with the Grenache.

    Hi thank you, I have a 6.00 off when you spend 40.00 voucher and it runs out today.


    What is the best way to do it, to get cheap as possible please .

    Snakes are a no go at the new Sada in D*ndee :mad:

    OH saw them on a top shelf, asked a SA to get them down then got to the till and they've told him they don't sell the 12 packs (coming up as item not available or something from the box's barcode) and insisted the pack had to be broken up and the bottles scanned individually @ £1.69 a bottle :eek:
    He's going to the K*rkton one so will have to wait and see if they have it.

    I wonder if it's due to Scottish licensing laws or the supervisor just couldn't be bothered trying to find the correct price.

    sometimes cases of alcohol have 2 barcodes on them (one normal size and one that is almost as long as the side of the case).

    I quite often get this error if the wrong one is scanned

    Did SA check for other barcodes?

    Although you are correct that if single bottles are being sold for £1.69 then caess of 12 have to be sold for 12x£1.69. If single bottles are NOT out for sale then they can sell the case for whatever they want

    I don't know aau1, he's on his way to another store just now so I'll phone him in 5 mins and tell him about the barcode thing. I doubt the next store will have the cobra though as it seems to be reducing it's stock these days.

    Ainsley Harriott packet cous cous are also (in total even number) A vs W. There appear to be five different ones that compare. Added now to the top of the Avs W list. Just going to add a few SP items, from my not-yet-finished SP list (ALL SP items are N/A vs W) - obviously you don't want the ones that have gone up in price (unless old SELs are on;) - SP Cheese Slices increased again - from 54p to 58p this time - so watch for 54ps on the shelves and check it does scan at 58p) - some SPs to go onto Avs W then I'd better go and get some shopping done!!:):)

    Could someone who's bought them confirm which is the correct barcode to be scanned if there are two, please?
