Tesco misprices and discussion thread 11

Also look out for the First Cape WHITE wine - scanning at £9.99 - you might find an old SEL for £4.99 I bought a bottle and went to CS saying I had been overcharged, and asked if they did double the difference, and I got a straight "No". There was no board on display to point at for evidence - shouldn't all stores display a CS board? - so I didn't push it (wanting to lay low ), and just chalked it down to experience.

But if anyone else can get DTD on the First Cape white wine it would make me feel a whole lot better :beer:

oh, no free wine for me but I only looked at rose... :mad:

will have another look tomorrow...

also re the "low profile" thing: I never kicked up a fuss, don't think I could do it... however couple of times I found the stuff not knowing about dtd at all! So they had to ask someone else and that someone did not know either... I'm sure they kind of remember me because of it(that poor guy who had been told off by his as*hole manager does for sure )...

anyway, I'm on a mission tomorrow... (don't know if it's worth doing all 5 stores as not really "good" time for ood sels because I checked the current ones couple of times already but I might do my two locals...) and I hope I'll have some sort of success to report... I need some free wine...

aaarrrggghhh

Does any kind person have the address for sending old receipts off to claim the ClubCard points? And does anyone know how 'old' the receipts can be?

Darn - that's weird. 1.5 hours ago it was scanning at £9.99. Are you in England princesslou? Sometimes there are price differences between countries...

Maybe some more details on the white are in order. It was the First Cape Sauvignon Blanc Semillon 2010 Barcode 6 009808 750173. Maybe give it a scan beforehand if it's not working for everyone. HTH

Ahhhh it was a golden time :D was soo gutted when it stopped, have to buy sunday joints now and Xmas presents. Also gutted when h&b vouchers stopped, they paid for a £3500 holiday and free toiletries.

Got to be 2 years since it stopped, is it?

Ah the good old h&b voucher days, combined with vouchers from the quit smoking kits = free toiletries and loads of lovely points. Think its well over 2 years now. Still using mouthwash and deodorant from then!

I bought the 240 PG tips tonight to get the 5p off petrol, It cost me £6.
I was doing the pricecheck when I thought I would check My Supermarket, on there Tesco's price is £5, I then checked with online shopping and its £5 there as well?
Any chance of DTD do you think? And how do you prove it with the online price?
TIA

It's longer ago than you think - it stopped in early 2007!
