    Can you still buy things like loose carrots/bananas as part of your 10 products for a Ts brand match?

    Edit: Am amazed that Freddos now cost 25p!! Last time I bought one, I'm sure they used to cost 10p!

    Yes, but the sweet aisle was an easy target and good for scanning quickly through the SS

    I know - the Fudges used to be 15p too, but I cant moan at the overall result :rotfl:

    The product will probably be withdrawn in T (or the Ts that become aware of the 'issue' with it) and totally unavailable for customers to buy, that's if it hasn't already been sold out by canny customers like us snapping it all up beforehand:D.

    It wasn't good with me, faffing around with every little packet:rotfl:. But I had an SA who was obliging in the sense of - I suspect he knew I was up to some 'trick' - as he hadn't seen me since T DTD 4 and a half years ago (crikey!:eek::eek: - is it that long?) - at the final voucher I sort of mentioned how it didn't really make sense to go to T anymore - and remarked last night "I thought it was you" after seeing me turn round from a side view. Having helped with the machine not accepting the weight of some of the Coke packs, I did the final few sweets at the end and he was a slight distance away then - still very close - and was sort of out of the way as I dropped my coins in and then took ages(:mad::rotfl:) to pack everything away back in the trolley. I didn't pay much - I feel it was obvious that I didn't but perhaps it is that no-one noticed. As mentioned no-one ever approached or followed me - I think someone may have been amazed! - and tbh (but I've never done 1p items purely as unable ever to find them:mad:) I don't know how I got away with it all!:T:j Maybe my SA wanted me to get away with it again:D:D as v.helpful during DTD and more or less 'on my side'. I couldn't go back in and do the shop immediately again though:eek::rotfl:. Surely I'd be stopped from scanning four more packs of Coke Zero (it's not a short thing, hauling them onto the SS and then back off again) after seeing (hearing?) me put very little into the machine a few moments before!:rotfl:

    They might announce there's a problem to all the stores (if they are open:rotfl:) - the guy will then realise what I bought. I might get banned from T:rotfl: - that would be a badge of honour!:D

    How convenient:rotfl:.

    Maybe coincidence and not caused by us though - perhaps other customers just randomly buying them in the day unaware of the glitch and shocks being delivered at bills being reduced.
