    Thanks for that. Just told my hubby to get down there now. Fingers crossed!

    ETA: No luck. They've told him there is no stock.

    Liars! Go back, go to where the CD section is, under the chart area there is like a hidden pull out "tray" under the cds where they store extras. All the Forever Love CDs were stored in there ;)

    I was only there this morning about 11, don't bother asking just go straight to that hidden drawer :) :rotfl:
  • Hmmm problem people, just been tescos for normal groceries, checked my receipt said "balance not available" under my clubcard points. come home, checked both my account and parents clubcard accounts and it says
    "Sorry, it is not possible to provide your points balance at this time. Please try again later."

    think they're going to take them off us??

    Went in this morning to pick up a few cheap CDs with mega points and very nearly paid way over the price I was expecting.

    I picked up a CD sitting above a £3 price tag and noticed the same CD on another shelf priced at £9.97. Looking (squinting) further, the £3 tag was for a completely different CD. So being a good customer, I moved it to its correct location. I noticed a few of these so not wanting to confuse myself, moved the other CDs as well.

    Having taken a look at the DVDs and games, I came back about 10 mins later to find that three of the CDs I had moved, had been moved back into what were empty spaces, in each case above a £3.00 or £3.50 price tag. There was also a Tesco assistant rearranging the CDs on the next rack so it wasn't difficult to work out the culprit.

    I went to the desk to point out that several of the CDs have been put above price tags that are significantly cheaper than the real price and she blamed 'customers not putting them back properly'. When I pointed out that her assistant had moved them back into the spaces, she admitted that they DO have a policy of 'Gap Filling'.

    So the moral is, don't trust the price tags on the shelves without looking at the very small print above them as Tesco's are actively placing CDs in racks above misleadingly low prices.

    That always happens when I do a big food shop,but I always make sure they do something about it.

    i dont know, i tried again and its showing my balance again, still the same as before though. however my online tesco grocery shop i did on sunday only appeared today so you never know
  • Hmm you're right, just checked both accounts, both showing their old balances again. Guess that's better than nothing!

    I prayer they show up soon...
  • I couldn't get my points balance on line yesterday & that was before I bought any CDs today so might just be a general problem at their end. My points did show on my receipts today though.

    did your receipt show the new points awarded for the cds or a total balance including the points awarded? when i bought my cds, the receipt showed points earned that transaction and then the clubcard balance from the day before

    Cant believe I never thought of that, worked for such a store for several years and know they use loads of these "hidden" storage draws on loads of isles. As they simply dont have the storage space in the back to have things like dvd's and cd stored in an organised way that they could at the bottom in a draw under each section in the isles.

    Might nip back later and kick the botton and wait to see which ones rattle lol.
