Tesco Mega Reductions Thread 2

My local Tesco have had the whole salmon on offer for the last 3 weeks and lobster half price for the last 2 weeks! I am hoping they will change it to something else soon as I already bought as much salmon as my husband could stomach!

Cod or Haddock would be nice, Sea Bass would be even better.
Does anyone know what day the offer changes?0 -
I did even better yesterday. Popped into my local on my way to work and asked the fishmonger to prepare me 2 large salmon, which I would pick up about 4pm. I was going to cut one into nice size fillets and the other into cubes for salmon kebabs.
When I went into pick up the salmon, the fishmonger told me it was even cheaper, half of half-price. I asked him for another 2, one for my freezer and one for my friends. I paid about £6.50 each for 4 ginormous salmon. I have only dealt with one so far. Cut one side into cubes and the other side into 8 portions.
The fishmonger explained that the promotion ended last night and he had to get rid of the remaining stock.0 -

It always pays to keep tabs on your local fishmonger/butcher & greengrocer to see if their prices are competitive with the supermarkets. :T0 -
Just got back from Tesco's, Value Banana's are now £1.00 for a 1.5kg bag.
Last week they were about £1.35. They have a 'normal' white shelf edge label not a yellow one so not on offer.
The normal loose banana's are 97p / kg in my local store so a great saving, I always buy the Value banana's and i have never had any problem with them, you just need to check the banana's as some of them can be a bit bruised.
Hope this helps.0 -
Don't forget the croissants for 94p for 8 (special offer though - no idea how long for as it didn't say!!)What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare0

The value bananas are even nicer at 37p reduced for quick sale - they still take about another week to ripen.A kind word lasts a minute, a skelped erse is sair for a day.0

They must have a banana glut as there were loads of reduced ones in my Tesco yesterday. Big bags for 50pI want to be credit card and loan free by Christmas 20100

Asda's have them for £1.37 for 1.5KG if it helps anyone who doesn't have a tesco. 97p a KG otherwise.
