'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!

We know there are at least 2 other threads in which we could post!

Yes, we do talk a lot!

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 from how to cook a baked potato to how to get 1p or 4p items through self-scan as quickly as possible. 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.

And finally, yes we know that 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.

We do try to remember to post new deals in bold. 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.

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.

CHANGES TO TESCO'S PRICE CHECK**

For those who don't know, Tesco have recently moved their goal posts re: Price Check/Price Promise. Your shop must now contain at least 1 comparable grocery product and at least 8 different items in total.

So if you're targeting a small JTD shop, then here are some cheap and cheerful items to bulk up your shop: http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=53804237&postcount=4424 (link now fixed but note: some of the list at the link, for example some of the pricing, is a little out of date. I will try to do an updated post at some later point - Savvy)

    Also, for T vs A, see the items in the list at post no 7 where they have a price for T - as a second price against them - as all these items (on S vs T) are cheaper in T than S and therefore can also be bought in T - and all should be non-avail. in A, so can go T vs A. (If they were avail. in A and T was cheaper than S, we wouldn't be doing S vs T, for a price match, but A vs T for 10% cheaper - so all on S vs T should be N/A in A. As that's the case, and as they are cheapest in T, they can go T vs A - albeit reduced CC points for buying a T offer in T rather than more Nectar points for buying a more exp. item at S that is cheaper at T.)

    #Taken from my T vs S. All items which are avail. in S and are T vs S are also S vs A. By definition, T vs S - which compare to a Sains price and are not used at T as a 'filler' (that is cheapest at T and N/A for S) - are also S vs A as the items are/should be N/A in A. The own brands cheapest at S, which T compares to S, are also S vs A because they are own-brands and cheapest in S (and they are also Svs T, whether T is more expensive or the same price, as own-brands are excluded under Sains BM). The brands that are Tvs S, cheapest in S, are S vs A because they are N/A in A, but are not Svs T unless they are same price in S and T.
    BM - It's simple! Simple shopping again!
    Um... lot of prices increased for S that are now being removed from my T vs S. Time later to go and find some items on price cut at S (that aren't avail. in A and don't have any alternative item, perhaps of a different pack size, that is better value in A, whether of its own right or vs someone else; and if of it's own right may also be T vs A!).

    Own brands - T vs A: [edit: 26/2/13 - now out of date, as T has price-matched A on many of the biscuits, so they are now Avs T. Bananas, broccoli & now whole cucumber (T 90p, A 50p) were still correct when last checked last night (25/2).
