I'm a really sad git!.......

[Moley]

Okay, even by my standards I've really become sad. I've just bought 10 bar codes. Why? I really don't know. The numbers are now mine, both EAN and UPC

I have bought something a bit more useful too. A Brother QL-700 label printer. Mainly for the wife to post her Ebay stuff as her writing looks like a spider has been dipped in ink and allowed to walk over the package. I does do a really good job of printing barcodes too

All I need to do now is find a use for 10 barcodes

You could get one sign written on the van so when its scanned with a smartphone it directs people to your website? Thats all I got.

I bought myself some VDE scissors the other week, our other spark proceeded to take the ---- as soon as he lay eyes on them. Completely overkill but I look the part when I'm cutting up those DB stickers now

That sounds like a QR code. A square block with lots of little dots in. You don't need to buy them. You can generate them online.

At the moment it wouldn't work. It would just be blank.

can we not get one of these q code stickers for CUs? save all these stickers. customer scans the q code and it tells him when a retest is due, when to press the --- on the RCD, and why it;s got different wiring colours. saves space and trees.

 

[Blissof89]

Yeah I was thinking of a QR code, didn't know you could just generate one.

How much does a bar code cost? Is it like a numberplate? If so I bet 8008135 goes for a pretty penny.

Price seems to depend on where you get them from. Varies from a couple of quid to £30+ per code. The sites I looked at just alloctae the code. You can't choose your own

Nearest I found is this Free QR-Code Generator. Create QR-Codes Online! - https://qrcode.tec-it.com/en/Calendar
I don't know if it's my phone or the way it's meant to be but the date would be a bit confusing.

 

[Moley]

Hmmm.....looks like you can do what you want quite easily

That was from Free QR-Code Generator. Create QR-Codes Online! - https://qrcode.tec-it.com/en/Calendar
