    Well I am wondering if mr Tesco is reading up on MSE- On tueday of last week, my one rare vice- Cadburys Highlights hot chocolate sachets (Vice as they are ££ rather then just bad for me!), Had gone from 31p to 45p overnight, this week- yesterday, they went back down, to 29p!!

    They are different prices depending on what flavor you decide to get- either 29p, 35p or 45p. But the milk chocolate version is 29p. The rest are higher.

    It's so that they can advertise it as one of their 'price cuts' - 45p down to 29p sounds much better than 31p down to 29p, doesn't it? :rolleyes:
  • loads of different marmalades reduced today - tesco's finest and various brands. all down from just under £2 to under 50p ( sorry that is a bit vague, but there was that many of them!;) )

    also got a vanilla magictree airfreshner for the car down to 44p and some pinkwheels screen wash down to £1

    Tesco own green and red pestos normally about 1.50 something. Got mine for 94p.

    Whilst not a mega reduction, its cheaper than the value pestos, which are selling for 99p
    Who made hogs and dogs and frogs?

  • Tesco thick cut orange shred, 30% fruit, 907g, large jar, orange label - 43p
    Frank Cooper lemon and lime oxford, 30% fruit, 454g - 77p
    Duchy Originals organic thin cut, 38% fruit, 340g - 97p.
    Others were half price as well.
    Also various types of oatcakes were about half price at approx 47p, included Nairns fine in a yellow banded box, also a brand in clear plastic and sort of a triangle shape. Can't remember the rest. Seemed to be just one in each brand.

  • :beer: Just got back from a late night shopping trip in Tesco & noticed they were putting up posters 25% off any wine/champagne when you buy 6 bottles or more (instead of the usual 5% off) When i asked someone, i was told it's only running from 20th -23rd Nov so i've stocked up & will be back for more.....:T

    Also..picked up a Schwartzkopf Nordic Blonde duo-colour highlight kit for 1.24 (reduced from 4.99) they had quite a few Schwartzkopf colouring kits / dyes at this price.
