  • My son noticed with the cds In Tesco there is a bar code stuck to the back of the cd case covering the original one, making them scan at the correct price !
    Now then the ones that are priced over the odds are the ones with no bar code over the original bar code ! ( if that makes sense )
    but it works everytime for us !!!

    Got this several weeks ago along with other cds. Its marked £8.97 with red sticker but SEL and scans at £17.

    Ditto!

    Jolie there was only one Whitney CD & 2 Athlete CD's left when I was in Tesco's (Reading) both marked with the £8.97 sticker, but they weren't in the clearance section just in the alphabetically ordered other CD albums shelf next to the chart albums.

    There also was a Nirvana CD & Osmonds CD stickered at £8.97 but shelf price was higher - only problem was that I couldn't scan them on the wall scanner because the stupid security cover distorted the barcode :mad: ! I didn't want to risk it so I just took the other 2 cd's :) !

    Been into my local Tesco store today, armed with my list from the CP Jackson website. The SEL for Wallace and Gromit was in the kids section and showing £11.77, so I got 3. Before I went to the self scan with the shopping, I checked to make sure it was still there!! Got to CS asked for a refund and the woman sent a lad off to check the label. He came back and said he couldn't find it. So I took him to the label and guess what......it was gone!!! Are Tesco fighting back with their own dirty tricks? Did the lad swipe it? Was I being watched by security? The moral, is go with the goffer when they are checking the labels!!

    Hard lesson to learn Dude.

    Always go with the CS - even if they ask you to stay at the CS counter.

    But don't tar all CS staff with the same brush - some are helpful Dudes, some are miserable Dudes and some are less than honest Dudes.

    Good luck next time,

    Would like some advice - i bought an expensive plant today dated 2nd March, so sold out of date. I have phone customer service and they have been very unhelpful, and said would phone me back ( which they haven't)

    What is my best course of action??

    Thank you!
