Picnic for two Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

ROTSIP: No response from the owner.
This cache appears to be gone. As there has been no cache to find for months, and it seems unlikely that it will be replaced soon, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.
If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email, quoting the GC number), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.
Thanks for the past fun.

Geocache Description:

Picnic for two

A while ago team freburg decided to go and do some geocaching and have a picnic in delta park. The idea was born back then to create a mystery cache that had to include a picnic to complete.

PLEASE NOTE THE COORDINATES LISTED ARE NOT THE COORDINATES WHERE THE CACHE IS HIDDEN!

PLEASE NOTE THE PARK IS ONLY OPEN FROM 06:00 till 23:00

The Picnic

I have prepared a shopping list that you can use to make your own picnic, or use the list to solve the puzzle as it includes all information that you need to solve the puzzle here*.

There is plenty of space for kids to run around, and there are some kiddies play area's to use. There are also braai fracilities and benches that can be used.

The Puzzle

To find the final coordinates you will have to use the barcode on each of the products, and add all the numbers together till you have one number left.
e.g. Coca Cola Barcode is 5449000009067
Calculate as follows 5+4+4+9+0+0+0+0+0+9+0+6+7= 44 -> 4+4=8

The Cache

A(B+2)°C.D(E-2)F South (G-3)H°(I-5)(J-7).(K-8)(L-5)(M-4) East
You can validate your outcome via Geocheck.org.
