You could try going out to the store now.
I went to my "wrong" T. My nearest Extra is a smaller store so didn't stock the Coke Zero at all:( - had to find a much larger store. So maybe your store near you doesn't stock it anyway?:think:

How much do the cokes work out per can please?

Sorry couldn't resist:D:rotfl:

Depends on what else you buy in your shop.
:rotfl: (I'm not shouting as it's in lower-case;). Or, as they say, I AM NOT SHOUUUUUU-TING!!:rotfl::rotfl:)

They are, nominally, 24p each as that is the price they are picking up for Morries - so, 1p per can:D. However, in Northern Ireland they work out a lot lot more expensive. T's offer price of £5:eek:, therefore nearly 21p per can - :eek:almost 21 times the expense!_pale_ (Unless you manage to find some store-specific clearance version of them or something, in which case the price per can is variable dependant on what actual price you find that at. Or even, in the highly unlikely(?) event that it is charged at a higher price than the shelf price, could see you being paid to take away.)

However, back in GB again, if you put branded items that the system has as more expensive in M that in effect it makes your deduction less and thus effectively the Coke Zeroes (Zeros? Zeroes?) can be taken to cost you more. Unless you take it as paying M's higher price (or what TBG has as M's price) on the other branded item(s) you bought rather than paying the cheaper T shelf price for it or them.

I know you "couldn't resist", so didn't really want me to answer you, literally:D.

Lol savvy. That's what we've all been feeling for years. That feeling of trepidation, waiting for the hand on the shoulder, and the relief that you've got through the till without being stopped/sussed. The addictive buzz is a real bonus to the cheap/free stuff that makes us do it over and over whenever the opportunity arises.
Anyway, good morning all:D
I'm loving the happy savvy posts. He seems much more relaxed these days don't you think.
Had to laugh at cs and TM last night.
I spent yesterday on the desktop computer. I've been putting off doing stuff, and it had to stop. I achieved most of what I needed to do, including printing and sorting my coupons and working out comparisons Today I need to shop.
Hope you all have a lovely day.

I think I may have been sussed lol:rotfl:, but the SA wanted me to get away with it!:D:D
Or, maybe not, perhaps he didn't notice! (Perhaps he thought - hey, hang on, that guy only put a couple of quid into the machine and took some change but only thought this eight minutes later when I was already out of the car park and in the car home:rotfl::cool::cool:.) So, what'cha gonna do about it? Nothing they can do - I paid for the stuff.

Good morning Elite.

Hope everyone is warm, well and happy. Hugs to those not so.
Been AWOL this week so hope I've not missed anything epic. I'm up in York this weekend for a friend's 50th birthday party. We're just waiting on the snow!

Are you talking to me?:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Do you know, in RL, when people have thought I was relaxed, I was anything but - and, when people have thought I was stressed, I wasn't - I was completely relaxed! However, that's probably about body language (or none or a kind of body language that isn't the one that most people would use - I've no idea, I don't intentionally send anything out:rotfl:) - but, on here, where you have only the words to go by (and the individual way in which you read [that's reed folks:rotfl: - see what I mean, or maybe you don't] the individual way you read [reed] them), you get it pretty much right.

I'm very relaxed indeed. How are you?
If you felt I was as relaxed before, I don't know why. I've been relaxed all of the time - or most of the time anyway. I must admit, when you come out with those glitches at a minute's notice - and I don't mean the T one of tonight, which required no real planning of a shop at all - just grab the cheap sweets and a few of the small loose items - I do get pressurised quite a lot more than most people I suspect because of time organisation being a little more restricted for me - when I have a shop to do, and the glitch might end, and it's later at night, and I'm wanting to get there before they shut the tills down and more of the trouts - or the ones that have seen me too much before - and it's against Sains - at a moment's notice - could be any of the others but works the same way - and I haven't got any planned items already in the pipeline to buy against S, and I'm always trying to get best value on each item(:wall: maybe slightly) - it does pressure me a little - like those glitches always on the flippin' Wednesdays when I had little time as dealing with M collection - or else had to abandon that, do the glitch and then come back way late - and it's because I usually spend too long trying to prepare the shop and under the tight deadline. I can go it though - it just puts a bit of pressure on me I have to admit!:D

Alright, I'm (probably) going again. I'd love to keep reading about people going to T and getting the Coke Zero - but that's my downfall to an extent too:laugh: - so I must go and I'll catch up later sometime.
Almost certainly not literally as I'll never catch up from starting back at this point, but from whence wherever I may drop in:cool:.

Goodbye for now and - happy shopping!:D:D:A:rotfl:

Savvybuyer

I will have absolutely no problem doing it again on any future other glitch, as they won't know I'm glitching until too late:D:D:rotfl:.

I could be there getting my normal shopping. Like I am aren't I? Just wanted several Coke Zero 24 packs this time:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.

:wave:

(It's "normal" for me anyway:D:D:D:cool:.)
