Loose fruit an veg dont count as your ten items in tosco anymore, shame as I would rather have them than the sweeties. If unsure I find it easiest to copy item for item a winning shop, food bank will always take a carrier bag of sweeties

They counted when I did my shop last night.
What - an about-turn by T within the space of 12 hours? Have the T&Cs been amended? On this Saturday morning.

(you weren't in an express were you?)

No it was an Extra store. Receipt details are 21/11/15 9:32 2733 076 9076 5006 but just says error for me when put into BG machine!

They count as 1 of your 10 items, they don't increase/decrease the value of your BG though

Here's my 'winning' shop from last night. Except that I've changed it to reflect the one Haribo Tangfastics packet that I ought to have had that item scanned as. Remember it wants to know your bag use before it gives you, hopefully, the total you want at the end (and, if you've got sense, you'll bring plenty enough of your own large-enough bags with you).

Obviously you don't have to get the exact same weight as me of the items such as the potatoes and banana I bought.

"A few weeks back" was presumably after the new TBG came in. (It's only been running for about a month.) I assume either you or the SA must have scanned your carrot or onion as the same item twice (i.e. scanned your carrot twice but not your onion or vice versa) or otherwise must not have scanned one (or more) of the items and not got 10 different items in your shop. Or you bought the wrong thing totally (it won't be your carrot or onion if this was TBG - and it's unlikely to have made much difference to your shop if it was the old TPP unless you got a really great quantity of the product and it lost out quite a bit against a competitor who you were targetting who was much more expensive by weight than T) - if you bought the wrong item, it may have affected the comparison quite a bit depending on what you got, depending on it being a brand if this was TBG (but not TPP) and how expensive or otherwise it was at your chosen competitor place.

Morning from flipping freezing Kent, I've got to go out but my coat is in the washing machine as one of the children spilt chocolate ice cream on it. I'm going to freeze ⛄️.
Are the multis from the last few days still missing for everyone as I have to go past A.

I have 2 tickets to the IHS at Olympia on Thursday but unfortunately I can't go then 🙁. What a waste of tickets😀.

If it's any consolation (I'm sure it's not), it's freezing here too, quite some miles away from Kent.
