    Why is the 12th not showing on receipt? Tia

    Because the APG can only compare a maximum of 10 identical items - that's why the 11 that do show on the APG compare at 68p each instead of the 25p each that you have paid.

    Would two lots of 11+1 work in the same shop if two flavours were used for the 11?

    NO... APG will see a set of 12, and they will compare at the correct price of 25p each.

    Someone that does this glitch will be along soon, but I feel No is the right answer.
    Are 10 only shown as APG will only compare up to 10 of one item?

    If it was say 11 strawberry, 11 cherry and 2 crunch corners - would that not work?

    Now there's a question! Others may know properly, but I'm not sure. If you have 11 of one flavour, 11 of another and then two of a third flavour (or two different), wouldn't the till see 10 and 10 and 2 so that it would think you had 12 (so paid £3) and would only do the glitch on the other 10. So I don't think it would work... sorry.

    While I was waiting for 60 seconds to elapse, others have also said no!
