Not had anything like that but it's a stone cold R&R, so you should get the full refund etc. Care to share what the items were that you bought?

the manager seemed quite adamant that they had a policy of no r&r's for vat offers.

I was in a different Tesco last week and saw a strange new phenomenon....

A Tesco lady - walking slowly up and down the central aisle - wearing a Red Shirt and walking around with a Big Red Lollipop Sign - both the shirt and sign were printed 'Can I help?'

I kid you not - anyone else seen this malarkey?

I couldn't resist....

Dude - "Hi"

Lollipop - "Hello - can I help"

Dude - "Where's Sainsburys please?"

Lollipop - "Pardon?"

Dude - "Or Asda?"

Lollipop - "I don't know?"

Dude - pointing at the sign "You can help?"

Lollipop - "Pardon?"

Dude - "Can you help?"

Etc etc etc…………………

Slightly off topic Dudes, but it made me chuckle…..

They use them in new stores of stores that are having/have had a refit.

Geneally, the idea is that they help you to find stuff in the store rather than local chav hangouts

If a security guard confronted me I would flash my badge and tell him that I am working for tescos undercover and if he approaches me again when I am on duty, I will sack him, then tell him to p*** off.

That is a bizzare statement. What card is it you would flash?

My Tesco Clubcard of course!!!

I would show him my SIA Security badge that indicates that I am a Loss Prevention Investigator. I have superiority over him with this id.

Asda have had them for years. Hardly a revolutionary idea. If I see one I'll be asking them if they know what the capital of Iceland is....

Now I know why I kept my Joe 90 World Intelligence Network pass that I got out of a packet of Sugar Smacks in 1969.

Ecover didn't even have a SEL price today,so couldn't get anymore after my visit a week & a half ago.
Shame as we have just got back from Devon & the missus has loads of washing to do..

Check out the Egg Fried rice 2 for £2,four bags in a pack,picked up 1 marked 2 for £2 & one not marked..
Given the R&R without delay

Any chance of telling us which stores you frequent and approx times, I am sure some of us would love to come and watch you in action if we were near enough.

Excellent idea Tony. Should make for an enthralling and somewhat enlightening experience!

haha V funny! Does anyone her womble much??? Am trying to save points for a holiday and need all i can get!! Where are the best places to look, without being so obvious!

Be warned!!! I wombled a bit too much recently! :eek:

Am I the only person here who has been sent a letter from Tesco HO, saying that they have noticed there have been a lot of manual adjustments on my Clubcard recently? The letter went on to 'remind' me that the Clubcard T&C are that the card should be presented at the till at the time of purchase. Do I have any problems they can help with, have I lost my card etc.?!!!!

Haven't done any wombling since getting the letter, which reads as a polite warning, as I do not want to jeopardise my points. Then today I found a perfect-condition (non-tyre-marked) receipt for over £100 which I am itching to claim the 100+ points for (sorry if this offends you anti-womblers)....think I may have to get a second Clubcard, for OH!

P.S. As this is, of course, the misprices discussion area, I will add one for someone to check out. On certain packs of Tesco beef steaks (priced at about £5.20 per kg), there is a yellow sticker that says something like '£2.50 per kg less than regular Tesco thin beef steak'. Well, the only other 'thin beefsteak' I could find was priced at around £7.48 per kg.

So the first product is not £2.50 less per kg (unless I've missed the right one to compare it with). Maybe one for you meat R&Rers to check out?
