Just doing some sums!:D

Please can someone check to see if I am correct?

If you were to buy

x6 different carte d'or
x4 pepperoni
x1 cheese
x1 fish
x12 veg

Do you think that you would get a BG for £19.26, making the sum total for 6 meal deals, £8.96, with no need for any fillers?:T

Yep

I think you need to do yours again too

If getting a BM for £19.26, how do you get the cost at £8.96 ?

£19.26 + £8.96 = £28.22

But 6 meal deals are £30

So the cost would be £10.74 or am I wrong again ?

Cracked it!:D

I have so got people doing only 5 deals in my head, that when I was doing my sums, I only worked out BG for 10 veg and not 12.:o:o

So my new calculations are that if the BG wasn't capped then it would be £21.04, so by buying 6, you lose out on £1.04.

This in effect means that the 6th meal deal costs £2.58, which to me still seems like a very good deal, especially if you haven't got to buy any fillers!:)

If you get the deal using some of the other sides, which people have done, you can get 6, because you are not getting 89p back for each of the veg.

You could look at it another way
30.00 - 19.26 BG = 10.74 divide by 6 = 1.79 per meal deal
The variables are having all 6 different ice creams which I know my store only stocks 3

Sorry forgot the 10 item limit on the BG so you would not get a BG on 12 veg

I think you are all mathematical geniuses on here.

Annoyed.com here. Spent ages trying to find the puncture in my bike tyre, inner tube checked several times over including the valve, put it all back together having found nothing, pump it up and hear a hiss coming from the valve, must be leaking under a higher pressure than I put it under for the check. Now have to get a new inner tube, annoying considering the bike is only 3 or 4 months old!
