Somerfield Stowells wine deal - poss misprice

My local Somerfield had the 25cl bottiles ( 1/3 normal bottle) of various Stowell wine - 6 different types

normally £1.95 each

large shelf offer says 3 for £3

Loaded up 3 of each type - 18 small bottles in all

as soon I placed on at till, the cashier said "those are 2 for £3" - and put 3 thro' till to prove it ... appartently just had a customer who also "thought" they were 3 for £3" - sounds like he accepted this !!

I suggested that if the knew it was mispriced then they should have taken down the sign ... chap came over and agreed to put them thro' at offer price
( effectively no scanning every 3rd bottle)

He then went to to remove the sign...

If this was correct at effectively £1 each , thats a great buy ... if the signs
wrong .. wonder if other branches are still showing the same offer?

ps... extra 5% discount was applied for buying over 6 bottles :D

    if they were 75cl bottles for £1, now that would have been a great buy. More the sort of price MSE'ers want to pay for their wine - see the Asda wine thread :rotfl:
