Ooh, I didn't realise there was a free NT pass on the go, thank you! Will investigate if there are any left.
Just wanted to say it's worth quibbling if you're convinced the shelf price was different to what you were charged. I did this in Mr L recently, with something I absolutely wouldn't have bought unless it was at the price offered. My spidey senses were tingling that day, because I'd spotted that an identical product was on the normal shelves (a later batch, perhaps?) so I'd taken a photograph of the offer shelf 😂 Dont know what possessed me, but it meant I got a refund very quickly without having to send anyone half a mile round the shop 😂

I see they've got some available through the octopod app for £8 too - still worth it, especially if you end up taking several people.1
