    wonder why your store is doing that?? it doesn't make a difference which order you scan them. I know discounted stuff mucks it up but not two meal deals.. bummer

    They may have done a partial fix on it- ie not scanning on two of same deal

    I finally renewed our car insurance for Feb. God, how painful was that? It's taken me 2 hours...
    I did various comparisons then used TCB for £25 back, signed up with Igo4insurance by Zenith. Must cancel current one so they dont auto renew. Cheeky boogers "gave" me free breakdown cover from Dec onwards. I didn't ask for it (nor do i need it as I'm with BMW as a freebie when we bought the car). turns out that the "free" breakdown cover will automatically be charged on top of my renewal at £80 :eek: Are they seriously having a laugh. I didn't opt in for that :think: do people pay that sort of money??!:eek:
    Tiger :cool:

  • My sis got two meal deals and the usual happened- she scanned the GR and the red coupon - both scanned but only the one fiver came off at end.

    That's not fair :( which store, Patty? Donegall Sq works fine - I've done a couple in there

    I've just been on TCB and it was offering the "new friend" 500 T bonus points if they join...[/QUOTE]


    The vegetable & chili bean - somehow tasted way better knowing it was almost free :p
