Could any kind person tell me what the Instant Cash Figure, and the @Stocking Number were in todays DM please?

Many thanks indeed!

If it does not scan the SA will read it. Therefore a bigger threat of rejection. I usually complain about the quality of the code and say it needs to be typed in. Usually after some pleasant banter I get away with it. A bit of freindly chat with the SA costs nothing and often helps with coupon acceptance.
I have also noted that in recent weeks some SA's have changed their acceptance rules, no doubt breifed by the big bad manager.
I think DM have deliberately made their barcodes unreadable so less get accepted.

Stocking number 33

And I've just realised that I was checking this week's numbers last week.... grrrr....
