Aldi misleading pricing
We bought a bottle of wine last week we thought was reduced from £8.99 to £4.99. The same reduction was shown on the electronic tag today and this comprised one tag divided into two, the right side showing £8.99 in black on white, and the left half showing £4.99 in white on red. On closer inspection there was some…

Money Moral Dilemma: Should I go back to the supermarket that didn't charge me and offer to pay?
This week's MoneySaver who wants advice asks... I did my big shop at a major supermarket and paid with a credit card as normal. Yet when my card statement arrived, I hadn't been charged. Do I go back and offer to pay, so the supermarket doesn't lose out? I'd feel a bit silly as it's been weeks and I don't have a receipt,…

Ocado is penalising loyal "Reserved" customers while other supermarkets are rewarding them!
I’ve been an Ocado Reserved customer for nearly 4 years and have only just discovered that I’ve been missing out on loads of promotions and discounts this whole time. The sums involved may seem trivial but they’ve probably mounted up to a frightening total over the years. I wondered if anyone else has had the same issue…

The Great 'shrinking food and other items' Hunt
The Great 'shrinking food' Hunt Revisited We featured this hunt back in 2010 (see original thread), but it seems manufacturers are up to their old tricks again by dropping products’ sizes while keeping prices the same (one forumite's spotted loaves of bread dropping from 800g to 750g). We want to know which foods you've…

Lidl Plus app can no longer search digital receipts
Anyone else noticed this (on Android)? I asked customer support and they confirmed that the function had been removed and suggested to star important receipts instead (which isn't a suitable replacement function). I found digital receipts very useful to store and search for returns (rather than hunting through a pile of…

Closing loyalty card account on the death of owner
Hello! I just wish to get a view and possibly some pointers from MSE bods. I recently tried to close a number of loyalty cards belonging to a parent after their death. All was going well until I web chatted with one and they asked for a scanned copy of the death certificate. I refused as I felt it was intrusive and I had…

Milk of Magnesia Scarcity
I know it is not a food but I am just finding it impossible to source either in chemists or supermarkets, always "out of stock".
