    There seems to be lots of misprices popping up - I was hoping they would get posted here but they seem to be all over the place.

    The main ones at the moment seem to be :

    Tesco sunflower oil 28p per litre - Misprice
    Special Offer SAVE 28p Was £1.58 Now £1.30 valid from 5/6/2011 until 13/6/2011
    https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/3275302

    Chicken Oxo x 6 10p also Homepride Chilli sauce 10p! Tesco
    https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/3278086

    TESCO MISPRICE £1 was £2 Harringtons Complete Dogfood Lamb And Rice
    https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/3276078 main on

    I also noticed on the Tesco site that Lenor Blue Fresh Air 1.2 Litre should be selling at £2.00 but its showing as £3.47 online. So if you manage to get it at the higher price you could have a potential instore DTD of £2.98 so it will cost you only 0.49 pence. UNCONFIRMED - I will try it tomorrow and let you know.http://www.tesco.com/groceries/Product/Details/?id=259465749

    price integrity were taking this sel off the shelf
    seems very expensive cat food

    http://www.tesco.com/groceries/Product/Details/?id=255741818 £13.99 esp when the fish one is only £2.79

    http://www.tesco.com/groceries/Product/Details/?id=255741438

    check the sel instore, if it is less than £13.99 and you get charged more you could get a lot of DTD !!!

    Just found the last one of these in my store hidden away at the end of the aisle.

    Paid went to CS, who came back 5 mins later with supervisor and produced £13.99 SEL, it was not on the shelf when I looked.
    "yes this cat food is £13.99 she say's", then I want my money back please, my mother in law will have to come back tommorow for the right one she said it was around £3.

    Knew I should of waited til tomorrow to take it back :mad:

    SEL = Shelf Edge Label, DTD = Double the Difference. I had to ask myself ages ago also. :beer:

    Thank you Ailey. So with the DTD, if you buy something and they overcharge you, you can then ask for double the difference back? Have I understood that correctly? If so, wow!

    That's right. If they overcharge you by £2, they should give you £4 back but there are many comments on here recently saying that some stores are not giving DTD so unsure exactly what the situation is. :beer:

    I know there has been a lot of glitches lately with the gardening stuff at Tesco, but i was in store yesterday and a customer in front of me bought this http://direct.tesco.com/product/images/?R=210-0399 it scanned at £25 but the customer noticed and informed the cashier that it was advertised as £8.xx on the SEL , she then called over a supervisor who went and got the SEL and adjusted the price on the till, so maybe woth a punt to some other people out there to keep their eyes open for it.
