    Decided NOT to call my local just in case they DID HAVE SOME and if the price was displayed as an OBVIOUS £2 then it might vanish into staff coffers before they tell me about it.
    So I visit and there isn't any on the shelves :(
    I go to Customer Services and ask if they can do a product search on their computer system.
    I give them the barcode and it confirms it's NOT an item stocked at this store.

    She queries what it is I'm looking for just in case the barcode is wrong.
    I tell her and suggest looking for OFFENBACH.

    SOMEBODY HAD OBVIOUSLY BEEN THERE (OR CALLED) BEFORE ME :eek: LOOKING FOR IT :eek:

    She had only got as far as typing in OFFEN when the system offered OFFENBACH ROSE as a previously entered search parameter.

    Anyway it confirmed it was NOT a stocked product at this store but expanding to look for others nearby revealed a couple that did have it.
    One (the nearest - about 3 miles across town) actually had some (about 3 cases) and the other store was out of stock.

    The screen did show £37.99 as "normal" price - did say something about "Promotion" and "40% off" - so didn't look too good.

    So anyway I popped across town, found it on the shelf and found the SEL. :( £19 :(

    I took a bottle to a till and got a price check. :j :j £2 :j :j

    Found a trolley and helped myself to TWELVE bottles :beer:

    No problems buying them, no query over quantity or price.

    BETTER STILL :) - over 6 bottles = 5% discount - so only £22.80 (£1.90 a bottle) AND 44 NECTAR points :)


    CANNOT UNDERSTAND why they've EXPIRED the offer on hotukdeals. ?????????????????

    When CS expanded the search for ALL Sainsburys, loads of stores all over the UK had it in stock - one store had over 30 cases of the stuff :)

    Did you get a bottle scanned at a till ?
    Or rely on the SEL being correct at £19 ?

    Mine said £19 but scanned at £2
