    Scanning (at the checkout) at £100 in mine!!!! Confirmed model number and barcode. Also the pink ones are scanning at £30

    My store also have the Braun scanning at £100! Just a small 400% difference!
    The JVC colourpop headphones are also scanning at 5.00 as the SEL. I was grinning like a cheshire cat when I saw several entire rows of them picked up 3 and only by chance thought I better scan in case!

    Thanks Scamps though - I got one pair of Philips headphones this morning. I had checked the chocolate and thought that was it. Walked round a corner and saw a shelf of the soundbars - my store hadn't corrected from the 1p.

    I've been on all bloomin night catching up:eek:

    What another veritable smorgasbord:D

    Lots of heartache stories too. I wondered why you were sad_dad, sad dad..........I hope you are a happy dad too sometimes:o

    Loving all the 1p stories...nothing....absolutely nothing for me.

    The most exciting part of my day occurred on a training course when I spotted a big box of PG Tips in the kitchen. I am determined to get Tyger her t towels:D

    Twice I went in and tried to memorise the code on the packet and failed. The third time I took my glitching notebook and pencil.i was just writing it down when someone walked in and for some obscure reason I told them I needed the code off the fire extinguisher.

    There was just silence.
