    What did you try to buy there? What offer came up?
    2 x John Freida Frizz Ease serum & 1 x straightening potion. I used the self service checkout and after scanning a few other goods the hair stuff running total was still showing as £16.50. Should I have pressed 'finish and pay' to get the discount to show up? Was v. embarrasing having to ask the SA to remove the items lol!

    Still says 3 for £2 online, but it isn't taking off any discount at checkout, is this normal, or should it be showing the savings?

    Yep, this was what I did too - if it hadn't applied the discount when I went to "finish and Pay" I would have gone and put them back on the shelf.

    This was worth missing Glee for!
    Just been to the Newbury store and there was quite a bit left. I went through the self scan 3 times, brought 6 bottles first just to check it worked, that was all Charles Worthington. Went back and brought another 12 bottles twice of a mix of John Frieda and Charles Worthington. Total of 30 bottles and paid £20, saving of £124.40!!!!!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    Am now set for the rest of the year!
    Thanks so much OP, love these brands but find them a bit pricey normally. Bring on my early shift 5.30am alarm and hair wash time!!!
    :money:

    Tescos never take the discount off till the time they pick your shopping, any discounts are taken then at the till, before it arrives at your house.

    I know a couple of earlier replies state that the discount shown up online for them. But it didn't for me, and I order every week, and it never does.

    HTH

    Anyone else feeling a bit guilty about poor Mr T and the money he has lost??

    Nope me neither!

    Anyone else going to be keeping an eye on here in the morning to see if it's still working?

    Yep, me too!!
