L'Oreal Infallible Foundation ... the new 16 hour one.
Found this today in a large Tesco extra. Large display stating £10.44 special offer £3 off so price £7.44 until 31st January. Scans at £10.99 then deducts £3 as a multibuy so actually charged £7.99.

Very nice cs girl gave me £10.99 refund even though I`d only actually paid £7.99!

Checked another 2 localish extra stores but they don`t sell L`oreal makeup so this is only going to be a limited offer but hope someone else can make use of it.

I've just got back from Tesco and got my first R&R!!! :T I got the L'Oreal Infallible Foundation and was charged £10.99 minus the £3 which came to £7.99 instead of the £7.44 it should have been. Lad at CS was great he gave me the R&R straight away.

The Xbox games poster does state that the top 15 games are UNDER £29.97,potentionally anyone wanting to buy the games for £29.97 is being over-charged imho,did spot the Live 8 at Wisbech store with 2 different prices,this could be a biggie because the new price was/ is going to be £32.something,Wisbech had this in 3 different places with the cheaper £28.47 being in 2 of them.
Fill your boots !!!!!!!!!

I've had R+R refused on Xbox games yesterday and HO aren't being helpful. Story in other forum. Have complained to Trading Standards. Watch out on this one.

Seems to be a few CDs mispriced according to this week's poster.
I only bought Razorlight, up all night and The Streets. Both had stickers for £4.97 and went through at £5.97. There are at least 3 others, one of which was Michael Jackson's No.1 hits, stickered at £4.97 and sel showing £5.97.

The wife rang and asked me if I could get something for tea on the way home so I thought I'd see what Mr T had on offer. As I'm getting a bit older I got in and remembered something about L'oreal and 10.99 so I went to investigate. Trouble is I go to Blackpool and believe me they are on the ball. Anyway I found the L'oreal stuff at 10.99 so took a walk down aisle 9 for a quick scan.......result scanned at 10.99 so put two in the old basket. Should have noticed that they'd stuck a piece of paper over the price saying was 10.99 now 7.99 save 3 pounds. Went through at at 10.99 then took the 3 pounds off, told the lad it was the wrong colour and gave it him back.
Still had a nice time though, light bulbs were reduced from 97p to 48p a pack so I got a couple of packs. Then the ultimate find (a trip down memory lane) checked the cereals as always and notived the triple berry shreddies were half price. Have a guess what I found? Right a nice pack of Joeys right at the back. Trundled off to pay with a fistful of printed vouchers, very pleasant.
Checked my receipt and blow me the bulbs had gone through at 97p. Dumped shopping in car, returned to store and purchased 4 more packs of bulbs.
Lady at CS said I could have a packet free! Yeah right, told her I should get all six packs free. She apologised as she thought they were on a multi buy offer before doing the decent thing. I know I'm sad but it's the thrill of the chase for me.
Think someone should start a 'Wheres Joey' thread as he's not been seen for a while.

Still mispriced - got it about 2 weeks ago and saw it again today

priced on pack at £6.94 kilo - SEL says £6.44

Its the one they pack themselves - not vacuum packed - but cut off the slab and clingflimed - usually placed in baskets next to the deli.

HTH someone else (its a bit like eating rubber but I like it - maybe it means I would like eating rubber too - mmmm - must try it sometime) lol

Managed to pick up a Beef joint last night. "Irish Beef Top Rump Joint".

Price on label was £6.48/kg, yet they had 2 sels, one showing "Rump Joint" at £6.22/kg and another showing "T/S Rump Joint" at £5.99/kg.

CS refunded without any difficulty, but removed the £6.22 SEL, in Addlestone Tesco. I suspect it may just be a local issue rather than a national misprice, but worth checking Irish Rump joints if passing.

Don't know about anyone else but I find in next to impossible to check prices on Beef products. There seem to be so many descriptions on the SELs which usually bear no relationship to the goods in front of them, and the shelves are so jumbled up with random produce I'm never confident that something is mispriced vs put in the wrong place. For example what is "T/S S/S T/R Beef BPBV" supposed to mean and how is it different from "T/S T/R Beef"? However in this case as there were only 2 SELs within a mile of the joint (all others had been covered by "product is unavailable" stickers", both mentioning Rump Joint so I was reasonably confident I had been overcharged.
