That was such a cool device, and quinsworth had a special offer for these devices.

yeah i remember and if you had Ariel washing powder and scanned it in you would get some load of points to battle with.

Haha, aww jeez, there is still one of them Barcode Battlers in the house somewhere, my fondest memory of them was when they came out first and 'Quinnsworth' (as mentioned by the OP) at the time were doing a promotion, depending on how much your shopping bill came too, you would get a number of tokens with numbers on them, and at the end of every week they select a few numbers, if you had a ticket with that number.....hey hey! You'd win a Barcode Battler.

I'd be collecting my moms tokens, aunts and grans tokens, had a few hundred and to go through them every week was a nightmare.....never won though :rolleyes:

Quinnsworth would have one on display in the shop too, so we'd be trying to find barcodes to swipe through it, just to see the numbers and hear the noise.....never really understood how that game worked

I cant really remeber how the game worked but I think it was kind of the same as top trumps.
