    The one I got for 1p was very dark purple like you say almost black.

    I've asked on the 1p thread as well but was the purple one the only colour on the shelf? There was a box of mice getting put out yesterday but I only noticed the pinks ones so lifted one from the girl and took it to test scan. Didn't want to go back as she was still there after checking it wasn't a 1p item and don't want to send my folks up to check if it's unlikely.

    TIA

    Have replied on that thread but to save anyone looking over there when I found one it was in the front of a row of grey ones, did look through for more. I also remember other people saying they found more than one in the middle of rows of grey ones so it may be they get mixed batches. HTHs

    :D of work to-day think im gonna have a long wander round mr ts as its raining here, hopefuly will spot a few bargains and maybe a wee dtd ,if i can be brae enough to go to cs :rotfl::rotfl:will report back later:)


    Go for it...the CS staff at ur local are lovely and treated that lady really well. I have spent the evening wondering if she was really a friend of martin's acting dumb since she had the wit to buy 2 toasters (who buys 2???), but can only speculate.
    That one is not my local, but does it have a price checker??....in case i decide to join you lol :beer:

    Just got back from T's, loads and loads of the finest belgian choccies for £2.55, so hopefully they will be going down further! Also saw a Cuponks (from last year's glitches) but didn't scan it.

    This was mentioned quite a while ago, but I got Tesco dark pink cerise colour gift wrap tissue paper for 25p! (5 sheets, 50 x 66 cm)
    Barcode: 5 00358 421002

    From what I recall they have to be either dark purple (almost black in colour) or possibly ice blue but I could be wrong. The pink one is definitely £8-ish. Wish I'd hung around to check if other colours were going out but I saw the box as the girl was putting them on the shelf and didn't wan to go back and try for other colours with her still there.
    Thanks for that. Had a look but they only had grey ones and they scanned at normal price :( No other glitches to report either. Might have to try another Mr T.

    Found today.
    Tesco FandF wooden round pendant necklace, marked 4 pounds with a 50% off sticker (so should be 2 pounds) scans at 1 pound.
    May be worth checking other jewellery too.

    Which tescos is this? :think: I usually go to Mr T in L*sburn. The scanner in the toy aisle there no longer works and they removed the one by the frozen veg...the wee scamps!

    I was disappointed not to see anything on the electrical today, lots of out of date SEL's but the prices are still reduced, but I did find
    2 boxes of the Mega Blocks today, can't believe they are still floating around small red Toy sale sticker saying £15 on the box SEL £30, so after all my trip paid off.

    Thanks to original poster
