Hey Kenau Dude - any idea when this promotion finishes?

I'm a bit annoyed today, although totally my own fault.

I purchased 4 packs of sello-tape which had been reduced to 22p, but found they all scanned through at the old price!! So I went to customer services and the lady then proceeded to take 15 minute to locate the sticker!! She then came back, typed in a whole load of things, and refunded me £1.05, I was in a rush, so just took it and left! Now checking things out, she only gave me the difference for 3 of the sello-tapes not 4!! So not only did I not get an R&R (my fault as stated) but I didn't even get the proper 'difference' back either!!

This is not specifically a Tesco question, but I was hoping one of you knowledgeable types may be able to help me with this.

I was in my local co-op store this morning, and bought some burgers which had been reduced for quick sale (dated sell by 28 Jun ie tomorrow), and were stickered BOGOF. When I got home I realised that they had not honoured the BOGOF, and I was charged the individual reduced price for each pack. Trip back this afternoon, the manager first tried to tell me the BOGOF offer had expired - to which I replied that the BOGOF stickers were on the packs. He then told me that they did not have to honour the BOGOF on reduced items. I stood my ground and mentioned trading standards and eventually did get the refund, but I still can't believe that legally they don't have to honour BOGOF if items are reduced - can anyone shed any light on this? I know that in the same circumstances Tesco do honour the BOGOF on reduced items, albeit at the reduced price!

:rolleyes: Sorry to mention this confusing issue again! bb999 I am not that dumb.......! The £8.89 price is wrong, it relates to a different product.

So can any friendly Tesco employee (Constantine?) help me understand why I was able to go to a smaller Tesco store today and buy the infamous 4-in-1 dishwasher tablets for the 'proper' price of £4.89? Cos I just did, even though nearby larger stores have them (exactly same barcode) scanning wrongly at the (5-in-1) price of £8.89.

Don't geddit, I thought prices would scan the same in all Tesco stores (thought it was just the SELs or product labels that sometimes differ)?

I will phone Mr T and his merry men at HO in the morning and see if I can confuse them too..........................:rotfl:

From the looks of it, there has been a product change on the dishwasher tablets. I think that they have gone from 4 in 1 to 5 in 1 with a couple of price changes thrown in for good measure.

I personally changed a label on the 4 in 1's which were reduced to clear and put out a label on the 5 in 1's which changed from £8.89 to £4.89. These changes were actioned on Monday. Hope this helps.

I would say they would be hard pressed to get away with that, especially as the item was stickered.
