    your wine would have worked out cheaper if you'd bought 6 in one go with 25% off? You'd lose match points if it compares at discounted price (and we don't know if it does or not yet?) but your cash outlay would have been less. My maths aren't spot on but doing it that way makes the net cost £2.99 a bottle. Buying 2 at a time makes it £3.24 or thereabouts. *I think*

    I think the max you can buy of the Hardys is 4 because of the cap. 4 = 9000 match points + 8000 more points
    You pay £29.00 and get £17.00 back ( I think )
    This is doing my head in lol

    It`s nice to be important, but its more important to be nice.
    The world is full of people throwing stones at us. Its what you do with them that counts. Build a wall or build a bridge.

    That's only if it compares at full price though. If the discount is taken into account you could buy 6 because that'd make it £5.62 a bottle. We need to find out :D

    If I can escape after dinner I may well go to Morries and test 6 bottles of Hardys to see what happens. My curiosity about what it will compare at is getting to me. If it compares at full price, I'll lose match points but at least we will know :D

    I wanted to do this but a bit skint this week.

    My sister just rang me any advice here welcome, i have said Doctors Surgery are wrong.
    She has been put on HRT on Monday, went and got prescription its 2 different lots of tablets in 1 foil strip, she has to take 1 sort in the morning the other in the evening.
    When she got in from work, there is a message on anwerphone to ring surgery, this she does and is duly told she owes them for a prescription!
    She said no i paid £8.05 for prescription yesterday, they said as its 2 different sorts of tablets she needs to pay another prescription charge?
    But they are in the same strip so its only 1 prescription am i right?


    I can see exactly where you are coming from but it seems to be correct:
    Lots of people moaning about it here! :eek:
    http://www.nhs.uk/NHSEngland/Healthcosts/Pages/Prescriptioncosts.aspx
    So to add to the distress of not being able to have children, I also have to suffer the effects of menopause or pay a double charge prescription for around 30 years.

    am 22 with premature ovarian failure and have to take HRT to prevent osteoporosis. The prescription is £15+ due to it being oestrogen and progesterone.

    Some medicines have more than one active ingredient or more than one medicine per box - as is the case for many HRT medications - these are then classed as two separate medicines in one box, therefore you pay twice.



    Really doesn't seem fair!

    It's only a game
