£15 School Uniform bundle at Tesco

sarahg1969

So, are the items not going through at £15 for all of them?

my receipt had everything through at full price then at the bottom it had £10.25 taken off which made the deal the right price.

Round here we have to buy uniform with the school's logo embroidered on sweat shirts, polos and sports gear.
It costs almost as much for 1 shirt as this deal would cost to kit them out completely.
I feel ripped off!

I thought that there HAD to be an alternative retailer for logo'ed tops etc in order to give the buyer a choice. Im pretty sure this was a big thing approx 6monhs ago.

I can buy my items from the school or there is a shop that you can buy plain clothes in the schools colours and they embroider the logo onto it. I suppose its better if the schools colours are 'common' in order to get a good match. It works out about £4 per item cheaper than buying it from the school which in my opinion uses the c*appest quaslity so they fade and shrink but yet I still get stung with £14 per polo shirt.

Do Tesco's do navy blue polo shirts?

Cardington Road Bedford Tesco had a good selection of sizes, offer all clearly shown etc, I got the boys bundle - coat, socks and shoes for my youngest (will use the shoes as his p.e kit trainers as they are very soft and he is only in reception so they barely do any outside PE in the autumn/winter. Am really pleased with the coat, is much nicer in real life than it looks on the ad, got trousers and polos for my eldest. Went through fine, just deducted the difference at the bottom as usual.

I assume this is a high school and not primary? A state primary school cannot insist on your child wearing their uniform.

I was waiting for official details of this offer yesterday as I was in Tesco with a massive banner outside detailing £15 school uniform and all the items you could get.

asked in store, did they know a thing about it???

turns out the store had put the banner up a day early-quite a typical thing for this store, so the email this morning was welcome!

I saw the TV ad on Wednesday night, and today I got my clubcard statement with a new 'double up' offer for 'back to school' so does this mean I can swap a £7.50 voucher for £15 double up? The double up offer includes bags, lunch boxes, pens etc. too though, so I could swap £10 for £20 if they only do it in multiples of £5.

For some reason my eldest loves these value coats, and sulks if I get him a better one. I prefer some reflection, for when he walks home on dark nights.

This offer will be good to split between my children (eldest is 13 so the shoes are no good, and they don't wear polo shirts at high school). I'll get some bigger sizes, because I'd already bought trousers and shirts.

My children's primary school will only allow you to wear the school sweatshirts with the logo embroidered on it which is only available from the school and of course i wasn't organised enough last term to order some ready :mad: Girls aren't even allowed to wear cardigans :rolleyes:

Great offer at Tesco though, will be certainly be looking into it today :j
