The website I'm on days it closed on the 7th May? ? 5 minutes ago, SteveTLizard said: I could be wrong but I'm reasonably sure it ends this Sunday (19th). I had a training session at my local news agents, he's well prepared for my daily visits now. Great work everyone who's won tickets, congratulation and have an amazing time. Still hope for the rest of us. There were/are 2 guardian ones: - the one where you have to buy the paper and scan your barcode, that ends 19th May. - one for subscribers only which closed 8th May Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is the poster of the one we’re doing with scanning our phones... Perfect. Thanks. I did request an email way back when it first opened but the email never arrived. I've requested text this time and it arrived straight away. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DareToDibble Posted May 17, 2019 Report Share Posted May 17, 2019 Starting to think I might miss the ladies behind the counter at my local McColls after this competition! Every day they have a laugh with me about it and tell me they hope I win. Genuinely think I might get them some flowers or chocolates or something if I win!

I'm really going to miss the jolly lady at the newsagent where I've been going, definitely dropping off a nice bottle of red if I get lucky ?

Levitz Posted May 17, 2019 Report Share Posted May 17, 2019 (edited) Trauma today, paypoint down in both co/op’s near me. Tried 2 other shops on the not-very-reliable map, neither did. Got directed to another newsagent by last one. They did it, and told me there was a guy coming in everyday to do it, also gave me a hand written receipt for the paper ( I saw the paypoint one too)! Is one of you the guy going to 5 Paul St?? Edited May 17, 2019 by Levitz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superscally Posted May 17, 2019 Report Share Posted May 17, 2019 Dear Guardian, I like your newspaper very much. Please let me go to Glastonbury. If you do, I will run there from Liverpool, eating only Twix and tell everyone I meet that yours is the best newspaper. That is all.

DareToDibble Posted May 18, 2019 Report Share Posted May 18, 2019 Question on the Guardian comp... for some reason both shops by me have no copies/have sold out already. They’re still willing to scan my barcode and I’ll buy something else (Twix?) but will that count or does scanning my barcode have to be followed by a Guardian purchase?

They’re still willing to scan my barcode and I’ll buy something else (Twix?) but will that count or does scanning my barcode have to be followed by a Guardian purchase? I can’t see how it’s linked. My shop has a scanning machine that is separate from the till. He scans the barcode but the paper isn’t scanned - he just enters the price manually in his till. They’re not linked at all. I’m pretty sure I could have got away with not buying the paper but, to be honest, having not bought newspapers since the invention of the smart phone I’m actually quite enjoying having something physical to read with my tea!

Essentially they aren't linked but upon scanning the barcode it will print a receipt for the cost of the paper so essentially the shop would be losing money and make it an illegal transaction.
