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.

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.
