Success at lunchtime in the Whitstable store...
2x coffee, and one old el paso Fajita sauce bought.
There were several packs of coffee left- SEL £3.4?
Fajita sauce was next to the boxed wraps etc, but had NO SEL at all.
Top tip- there is a self scanner tucked away in the mens clothing section- I only clocked it when I doubled back to look for stig socks as there was a tall rack in front of it. It's attached to a pillar, facing away from the tills.DTD...Dreading The Detox.0 -
Ok i've managed to get to 5 tesco stores today and got 14 bags of cafe direct coffee in total but no Head and Shoulders menthol shampoo with the code ending in 065
i went to the superstore in slough, feltham (both stores there), egham, and sunbury store. so no point in going to these ones in case someone is local and wanting to check there
