            Yes ours as you say is 1.24 only to get it you have to jump through hoops

            If you go to the High St Thomas Cook, They give you 1.18
            If you go on line to Thomas Cook, and order it for pick up the next morning at the shop in the High St you get 1.24

            Crazy but good exchange for us
