Pic of med gwp
They had these in slough finally but i decided it wasnt worth it, now wish id got it:rotfl:

WOW I want one these, I thought I remember to take the voucher to work today but forgot it (poo) But I didnt see any of the GWP anywhere on the shelf, how long has this offer been on or has this offer been on before?? If there, isnt any left then I might leave it a bit longer because the voucher expires in Oct '08 so may try and hold out and go to another store when/if they bring back the GWP

From what I've noticed the till will only tell the SA about a 342 or BOGOF if you have the correct number of items, eg: if you only have 2 items for a 342 then it won't flash up unless a third item is put through.
Yesterday an "offer" message came up on the till when I bought a hair colour but the SA didn't know what the offer was when I asked her, only that there was one IYSWIM.

In the past I've asked if an item was on 342 for example and the SA's seem to be able to check this somewhere on the till, I think they can bring up a list of offers if you query something, though they often have to check the SEL's like we do :rotfl:

I guess there are so many offers, vouchers, GWP's going on that they can't be expected to know them all, I've found the most "up to date" SA's are usually on the general multiple tills where they can swap info with each other as they spot new offers usually when us Bootsers have been in getting our glitches

The till does prompt anything that is on offer, although sometimes it can be easily missed tbh. There are several abreviations used: BF for bogof, TT for 342, MS for multisave and LS for linksave. It doesn't show on the customers screen unless you do a price enquiry in which case it appears on the bottom line left hand side.

As mentioned above, things like MS and LS don't really help us that much if you don't know what offers are on. Much better going to the shelf and reading the tickets.

It ends tomorrow so been out quite a while. I dont think they'll bring back this exact gwp again, they usually have a different gwp each time.
Wish id got one now:rolleyes: I would ask my oh to pop out of work to get it for me but he wouldnt have a clue what to look for.

Just thought, you may be intending to use the PC £5 voucher. If so, apologies.
