RE: Barcode scanners and Databases
All
this barcode talk has made it easier to spot other HAers in Sainsburies
now.........
They
will be the ones comparing bar codes :-)
You
sure Keith?
I
always thought the smarts for special offers etc was in the POS systems,
not the
barcodes..
certainly, I know for long enough, the code on a multipack can of
diet
coke was no different from the normal one..
(now,
ironically enough, the multipack cans don't even *have* a
code)
Ian.
The
problem with that is they will change frequently depending on offers etc eg
Cans marked 50% extra or 3 for 2 will have differnt codes on
them.
That
is why I proposed learning the code against the type of product. If you are
more demanding you could have
Heinz_Beans = Beans for
Parents
Asda, Smartprice, Value, Economy = Crap beans for
Kids
If
you want it to perform automatic ordering you would need datafeeds from the
suppliers with all current barcodes etc.
I
am
just trying to simplify the creation of the shopping list and avoid the
situation where I have enough Shampoo and Shower gel for the whole of
Norfolk
but dont have a single Bog Roll in the house.
Keith
Does anyone have
access to a list of supermarket barcodes, as these
probably won't be
listed anywhere, for example own brand products.
As is mentioned
below, there may be a possibility of developing an
database of products
that don't already exist in current barcode
lists.
