Green and blacks chocolate

More of a lurker than a poster, but this happened today in tesco and thought I would share it, sorry if this has already been posted but I couldn't see it anywhere

Green and Blacks offer is if you buy the mini selection at £4.99 you get a big bar of milk chocolate usualy £1.75 for free, when I checked my receipt this deal hadn't gone through.
I went to CS and explained, the SA was lovely and refunded me £3.50
So I got all that lurvly chocolate for just £1.50
How happy am I?

    Oh and FYI, sell by date on the mini pack is Sep 2010, so would do nicely as a Christmas present

    Wow - that sounds good, might have to make my way to Tescos tomorrow. Is there a shelf label about this or anything in case I get challenged?

    Most of the varieties of 100g bars are currently in Asda for £1 each - so I have stocked up for hen party goodie bags im making :j

    This was mentioned in the main Tesco Misprices thread:

    However, it's always good to have particularly good misprices highlighted. I would point out that your initial outlay was £6.74, so with the £3.50 refund, you ended up paying £3.24.

    Most of the 100g bars of Green & Blacks chocolate have been reduced to 99p and this is perhaps why they have ended this free bar offer early. To get full benefit from the DTD refund, you need to do as the OP did and buy the Milk Chocolate variety, or get the Dark Chocolate and Mint or Milk Chocolate with Almonds varieties, as these are also still priced at £1.75.
