Tesco misprices discussion area part 6

WOOHOO....my first R+R today...Spyro and Crash Double Nintendo advance set....charged 19.97, stickered at 17.97 or something like that. In the Tesco Newmarket Road Cambridge, they had more in stock, but I told the manager who came from upstairs that there wasn't any left when she asked me if there were more. I'd actually hidden the other 2 copies to go back for later, or for another MSE to take advantage of....so if you can get to that Tesco, they are roughly about half way up, behind a girly kids Ninetendo game! The man on CS was rambling on about something or other to do with recognising people who came in to get frequent R+R and that it was fradulent and they would be prosectuted eventually. There is nothing stating that actively seeking out mispriced products is against their policy, if they are that concerned, keep better tabs on it! (or not as that wouldnt benefit us at all!)
Also found 2 till spits and 3 receipts amounting to about 500 CC points so all in all a good day!0 -

I would have told him that if Tesco stopped acting fraudulently then there wouldn't be any R+Rs.Jim.0 -
Not so much a misprice, more of an apparent product error/overprice, but did not know where else to post it and you lovely lot might know if I am right!?
I sometimes buy Finish Dishwasher Tablets and I thought you normally get 45 tablets of the 4-in-1 type, for £4.89. I have an unused pack at home and the only old receipt I can find has them at £4.89.
Well I have a till-spit reward thingy to buy some more, but found this week (in 2 Tesco stores) they are on a shelf with a sign saying Finish 5-in-1, 45s, £8.89. There were actually no 5-in-1's evident in that size. I checked today on a till and the 4-in-1s are scanning at £8.89!
Well I didn't buy any and I raised the issue in one store with a man who thought I may be right. Left that with him for now.
Funniest thing is, I always pick up receipts outside in the car park to get extra points if someone has not used a Clubcard, and guess what, I found one this week that has 'Finish Tablets' £8.89. Well, at the very least I may go in and get a refund of £8.89 (and give back my unused pack as I will still make £4) but am I right about the original price being £4.89 and do you think there is a chance of R&R at all?
Cheers everyone, keep posting!PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

It would only be an r & r opportunity if the SEL was lower to what was being charged through the till.
Not 100% sure, but from the looks of it the 4 in 1 is being phased out in favour of the 5 in 1 - the image for the 4 is the same as the 5 on Tesco.com, not all the pack sizes/flavours are there, etc. The cynic in me would expect a price cut on this new line sometime soon :rolleyes: Ocado are the same price, btw.Who or what was I before you came in to my life
I am not sure0 -

lmao - couldn't agree more! I read it over and over trying to fathom it out, but gave up!0 -
I think, but don't quote me - Coupon believes that Finish Dishwashing tablets have been wrongly priced. He/she now wants to take back some that were bought previously and get money back at the current price and expects to make £4. Presumably Coupon would then buy again when price comes down.
Sorry Coupon but I can't see you winning on this one.0 -

That's it Poppy P! I assume you are female, like me, as you understood where I was coming from!!! I think I will just make £4 on the item.
Sorry to confuse you guys, I'll find something more simple to post about next time...PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
