"Think of the thread as a tree, many branches to it, and not all of us, need all the branches, but we do need the tree!" - midwinter

New overflow thread for 11+ers
THE FOLLOWING IS COPIED FROM ORIGINAL FIRST POST ON PREVIOUS THREAD
This is yet another bargain/glitch/DTD/JTD/misprice thread!
We know it's in the 'Gone But Not Forgotten' section!
No, not all of what we say is Tesco related or even of interest to many others but this is the way this thread has formed.
Many of us want to discuss the various deals to be had but this was not appreciated on the main Grabbit forum. As such, we now use this thread to talk about anything. We also discuss ex-husbands and wives, kids and animals. If you have a medical problem we'll nag you until you go to the Doctor. If you're not feeling well we'll provide support, a wee hot drink and whatever chocolate is currently glitching to cheer you up.
Some people try to obscure the store names but this works both ways. It might make it difficult for those who don't have the time to sit here and natter all day but it also makes it difficult for staff/managers to quickly identify any issues at their store.
Please put all your finds in bold with LAST 4 DIGITS OF barcode and photo if possible so we can chat & still speed read for bargains. We don't like arguing so we're not going to take umbrage if one or two deals slip through.
Now sit back, relax and feel free to join in. We don't bite (unless you ask nicely), we will help wherever possible and you don't have to post new deals just to feel like part of the group.

TESCO INSTORE PRICE CHECK POINTS
Many Tesco stores have barcode scanners attached to the wall so that you can check the price of something (don't always trust what it says on the SEL)
This thread lists some known examples:
http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/...esco+scanner+l
Please do not leave items by the scanners!!! Please do not give the staff extra work by leaving your unwanted scanned items - stores will be loathe to repair or replace scanners if they make extra work for staff!

1P ITEMS IN TESCO
When items in Tesco go beyond the last stage of clearance they are reduced to 1p (typically out of season goods such as xmas goods in February, Valentines goods in March, etc)
This is the link to the daily mail article regarding 1p finds:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...#axzz2jgpacct4
TESCO OVERCHARGE POLICY (DTD)
If you are overcharged in Tesco their policy is to give you back twice as much as you overpaid (Double the Difference)
This applies to all Tesco stores including Express.
The policy is displayed on a blue board (usually behind CS) under the heading "If things don't add up"
Staff are notoriously bad at honouring this policy. Excuses such as "the offer expired", "it doesn't apply to electricals", etc will be tried on but are not valid defences.
If offered a refund instead of DTD do not accept it, instead just leave the store and contact Head Office.

PRICE COMPARISONS
Tesco, Asda and Sainsburys all have schemes whereby you can claim back some of the cost of your shopping if a competitor was cheaper
big thanks to wackynut for the below summary of the t&cs for each supermarket's price comparison service
ASDA PRICE GUARANTEE (APG) - INSTORE
A's compares with - T's, S's, M's and W's.
A's give you the difference back plus 10% of the value in the competitor
Comparative prices for S, T & W are taken from mysupermarket.co.uk (prices for M are currently taken from instore visits - the prices shown for M on MSM should be used as a guide only)
You need to have bought at least 8 different items covered by the asda price guarantee, of which at least 1 should be comparable.
Some departments do not count towards your required 8 items (eg clothes, sandwiches, newspapers. See faqs for more info)
No minimum spend. Maximum of 10 of the same product will be compared.
You have to wait 3 hours after after shopping at A's before you can check/print the APG.
Check/print your vouchers here:
http://asdapriceguarantee.co.uk/Compare-Prices/ASDA-receipt.aspx
Periodically the APG site will say you have to wait until 6am the day following your shop. This is not cause for concern. The 3 hour wait has always been restored fairly quickly.
APG used to be capped at £15 but at the moment cap has been lifted.
Each household will not be able to claim more than £100 in any calendar month, nor make more than 10 claims in any calendar month (this is more easily enforced with online shops).
Click here for APG t&cs http://asdapriceguarantee.co.uk/admi...onditions.aspx
click here for APG faqs http://asdapriceguarantee.co.uk/admi...d-answers.aspx
ASDA PRICE GUARANTEE (APG) - ONLINE
APG shops can also be done for click and collect orders or home delivery
Same rules apply as above with a few exceptions
Results are advertised as being available 48 hours after collection/delivery. In reality results may be available to view immediately after collection.
You can check for your results here:
https://www.asdapriceguarantee.co.uk/Compare-Prices/Login.aspx
On the results page you should click "Get voucher" before you take delivery of your next order. Failure to do this will result in you losing the first APG when you do your next online shop.
Vouchers are credited to your online account (usually on Tuesday afternoons) in increments, starting with 1p, 2p, 5p, etc. Be patient and your full APG value should be credited Do not panic thinking you are only getting 1p!

TESCOS PRICE PROMISE (PP) - INSTORE AND ONLINE
T's compares with - A's, S’s and M's
Prices are taken from A.com, S.co.uk and instore visits to M
To qualify, you’ll need at least 10 different items, including one comparable grocery item in your basket.
Unlike asda there do not appear to be excluded departments
it appears that bag re-use no longer counts as one of your 10 items (not even at a non-ss till). This is despite bag re-use appearing on your PP results.
No minimum spend. Maximum of 10 of the same product will be compared.
Price promise is instant in the form of a till spit after the receipt is produced. Online PPs are emailed to you
Voucher capped back at £10, valid from the next day
Monthly limit of £100

SAINSBURYS BRAND MATCH (BM)
S's compares with - Asda
Comparison prices are taken from A.com
Only one comparable branded product needs to be bought (i.e. any Sainsbury's branded product is a safe filler)
You need to buy any ten different items
Maximum of 10 of the same product
Voucher given at till (even self service tills) but only at some CS tills
Voucher back capped at £10, can be used immediately

    Fancy closing the thread when I was trying to do the M list:eek::rotfl:.
    Thanks nut for the new thread!:D

    M prices taken 7/10/15.

    Avs M (not Northern Ireland).

    Flowers
    -

    Fruit & Vegetables
    ASDA Bananas by Weight 68p/kg 68p/kg
    [Strike]ASDA Lemons Loose30p 27p However, packs of Lemons, in M, are cheaper (even with no "More" points offer on those anymore making them more expensive than what they were).[/Strike] 30p
    [Strike]ASDA Limes Loose30p 27p[/Strike] 30p
    ASDA Root Ginger by Weight£2.68/kg £2.72/kg (:( M price increase a couple of months ago)
    ASDA Bean Sprouts (360g)50p 54p:eek:
    ASDA Simply Roast Herby Tomato Vegetables (400g)£1.50 99p £1.00
    ASDA Swede by Weight (760g)97p/kg 97p/kg I may have picked the 'wrong' one, for the APG. However, it 'should' be this one, based on what is in M. Probably return N/A.
    ASDA Broccoli (335g)49p 42p
    ASDA Carrots (1Kg)60p 45p
    ASDA Savoy Cabbage Loose80p:eek: 50p:eek:
    ASDA Red Desiree Potatoes (2.5Kg)£2.00 £1.00 No guarantee that this will compare. M Unwashed Potatoes (huge 12.5Kg) work out much cheaper, if you can find them. They are still £2 but I found them hard to find on Monday.
    ASDA Grower's Selection Cucumber Portion35p 21p Whole Cucumber M 42p - however I would only buy whole at 14p whoopsie:rotfl:. Portion cucumber may give more as more than half of a cucumber.
    ASDA Chosen by You Pitted Dried Dates (500g)£1.89 £1.49
    ASDA Smartprice Coleslaw (300g)30p 30p
    ASDA Smartprice Potato Salad (300g)42p 42p

    [Strike]ASDA Smartprice Lager (4x440ml)90p 89p [/Strike][Strike]As above.
    3xJohn Smith's Extra Smooth Bitter (10x440ml)£8.00x3 Any 3 for £15.00 If you want to risk. Single price in M may be £8 (according to m.com, although that may be last week's price, I do not take single prices as that's not the best offer price), so may be risking quite a lot:eek: if it misses off the M mbuy.
    Cobra Zero Alcohol Free "Extra Smooth" "Premium" Lager (4x330ml)£2.98 £1.96 Been overpaying for months:rotfl:.
    ASDA Chosen by You Lime Cordial No Added Sugar (1L)58p 59p

    [Strike]2xCoca Cola (24x330ml)Any 2 for £10.00 Any 2 for £10.00:eek:[/Strike]
    ASDA Carla Blanca Superior White Rum (1L)£15.90 [Strike]£14.99[/Strike] £15.00:( Has this ever compared against M in the past?:think: Not sure why this is still on here given that we have had 1L alcohols down to £14, very briefly, in M recently (although most usual offer on those, branded, ones is £15).
    ASDA Refined Dark Navy Rum (1L)£15.50 [Strike]£14.99[/Strike] £15.00
    Camp Chicory & Coffee Essence (241ml)£1.60 [Strike]£1.60[/Strike]
    [Strike]ASDA Smartprice Instant Coffee Granules (100g)47p 47p[/Strike] Too dear!:eek::rotfl: Anytime Decaff. 227g and several others in M were better price per unit than 10% off 47p, even on M's straight price when bought in M.
    ASDA Gold Roast Freeze Dried Coffee (200g)£2.79 [Strike]£2.79[/Strike] £2.76:eek:

    Bakery
    ASDA Smartprice Medium Sliced Brown Bread (800g)36p 33.3333...p If Wholemeal appears as Brown and compares against M's Savers Brown. See also note below. Whoopsies may be cheaper.
    ASDA Smartprice Medium Sliced White Bread (800g)36p 33.3333...p However, even though M is 720g and therefore you do get less, it seems M's version has the most number of slices of any of the versions, regardless of any technical weight difference. So, maybe buy in M, at 30p.
    ASDA Chosen by You Oven Bottom Muffins (4)59p/Any 2 for £1.00 [Strike]49p[/Strike] 50p:( And whoopsies can sometimes be found cheaper.
    ASDA Chosen by You Tiger Tails Baguette75p/Any 2 for £1.00 50p
    ASDA Raspberry Jam Doughnuts (5)65p 47p
    ASDA Custard Doughnuts (5)65p 47p
