Don't think OP your dunce in asking this question.
I queried it the first time I got one of these triple points vouchers, as it didn't sound right.
As for the smart ars* of message 6 , it's not the maths side that throws you out but the way it's worded and your perception of what it means. By the way I'm good at maths!The more I live, the more I learn.

It has been clarified that the wording was correct. Triple points. It isn't quadruple or triple plus the original.
It's basic arithmetic. No maths needed.0 -
I wasn't particularly trying to be smart, nor 'uppity'. I thought the darts example might help the OP understand where the total of 60 came from.
If you come on a website and ask a question, and get an accurate answer, I don't think you can justifiably complain! And if you ask a fairly basic question, frankly you can expect some flippant and/or robust responses. If you can't cope with that rather mild level of mockery, then you should perhaps seek your answers in a different location than an internet forum, or alternatively grow a marginally thicker skin.0 -

It's pretty obvious where i got the 60 from without you trying to be clever.
20 points for the singular transaction.
Voucher gives you triple points so 20*3=60 added to the standard 20 points for a total of 80. I thought the voucher was tripling your standard to add with your standard. It turns out that isn't the case, wow, big deal, shoot me.
I wasn't asking what is 20*3 was i now.
So why not go be a smart @rse elsewhere?!
No doubt you'll have some 'clever' response for my post but read the thread back & take a look where the attitude began .... again! I'll give you a clue .... towards the end of post #5 & the waste of time that is post #6.
You might want to look up the word irony in the dictionary.....0 -
