    Glitch not working at Tesco in Hermiston Gait Edinburgh. Got a few anyway as the buy one get two free offer is still pretty good. Not as good as paying you to take them away though!

    to cut a long story short..
    we all know wot im talking about..
    self scaned last night
    staff came over querying why it was only £3xx for such a lot of shopping...
    she took a close look.. even the toilet rolls were £4xx
    anyways she took a copy of the receipt and said she would have to scan it all again at a normal till..


    so we go over ,, she scans the receipts barcode,,, ok then she said thats £3xxx please...

    well i dunno wot happened but i quickly paid it and left..

    She even asked 2 more members of staff who were about to go for a cigarette to look....

    I found I had to use 2 cartons last night to make spag bol for 4, so I'll definitely use them up no problems. They really are lovely though, really bright red and juicy, I normally use value tinned toms as I am on a very tight budget and go through loads. They're alright, but a bit watery and pale. These feel like pure luxury for us!! :)
