    Tesco's terms and conditions do say:

    "If, by mistake, we have under-priced an item, we will not be liable to supply that item to you at the stated price, provided that we notify you before we dispatch the item concerned."

    Just got the phone call and had to cancel my order. :(

    This order has now been fully cancelled. The product won't be delivered to you, and you won't get charged for the order.

    The item in this order was:

    1 x Lemmings
    Cancelled - sorry, we are unable to obtain this item - Wednesday 01 March 2006

    I didnt even get asked if I wanted it at £29!!

    I have had no email.

    But just checked "My Account" on the website and it says cancelled.

    It a shame they dont operate the same policy online as in the shops.

    Oh well maybe next time, we might be lucky.

    I got a phone call from tesco's today regarding my order, he said 'if you proceed with this order then the full amount of £29.97 will be deducted from your card and not 90p.' So i cancelled. :( Oh well.
