    Very strange, I've just scanned them too and they've come up as bananas :eek:


    I bought children's sock the other day that had to be age checked :eek: Sa said they reuse old barcodes and it was originally from alcohol. I wonder if that's what's happened?

    That does not make sense, if they have control of the site, why is it still open, and why is it letting you get as far as putting in your card details??

    Also, the Yves, had you experienced a site problem, or was it just a general email? Many thanks

    (edit: unless it used to link to another fake site,)

    How weird was that! Ooh, I don't know but it seems others have bought the same apples with the same bar code as me.

    My apples just think they're apples not bananas :rotfl:

    Yes and therefore no multi saver showing on the receipt. Mine is an ex-netto, South East of England :o

    That at least narrows it down as ex-Netto sometimes have slight differences.

    It is a useful safety sign for Elite though - if 1 Jazz apples scans at £1.50 abort mission, if it scans at £2 and 2 for £3 multi then comes off on the till it should still glitch (but check if you can instore to see what it scans as!).

    Very cheap oakley sunglasses posted on HUKD, although it looks a little too good to be true. I think the site was only created last month, but I could be wrong. Tread with caution
    https://www.oakleybrandnew.com

    Edit: been marked as spam on HUKD

    One of their customers is John Carew from Oslo. The footballer I presume. :rotfl:

    I told Mrs Anon that I bought bananas and she didn't believe me until I explained Jazz apples are having an identity crisis :).

    Just thinking, it may be worth people getting someone in the store to scan a single pack of the apples and see if they scan at 1.50 like mine did, or £2 like they should do just to be safe ;)

    Today was the first time I've seen these apples in my little store so may be the price has only just gone on the system. Just an idea

    Edit: Great minds - me and anon ;)
