    That's definitely the right truffles.
    Found lots of these in 2 diff stores on Wednesday.

    The ones with PINK sides are NOT 1p - they are full price at £4.07 and contain only MILK CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES.

    These ones with TURQUOISE sides are priced at £3.99 but scan at 1p everywhere. They differ in that these boxes have 3 varieties of truffles inside:

    Milk Chocolate Truffle
    Hazelnut Praline Truffle
    Roast Almont Tr
    The boxes I found all had BB End September 2011 - and they are DELICIOUS!!!
    thank you thank you!
  • Hi - I found the Koko truffles at WWX Thanet - they are on the reduced section near all the crisps at the very far end of the store. They have a yellow reduced sticker on them saying they should be £2.39 (down from £3.99). I picked up 10 (still left a shelfull behind!) and took them to the self scan tills where the SA said she would put them all through together to save me time scanning each one (I only had the chocolates in my basket). When she scanned the first one the till rejected it saying something like "Incorrect price charged" so she peeled off the yellow sticker to reveal the normal barcode and it scanned at 1p! Cue some mutterings under her breath as she rang up a sale for 10p!! Cue me paying and exiting the shop VERY quickly with my ill-gotten gains!!

    I can confirm that you need to look for the brown and turquoise coloured boxes with the matching turquoise ribbon. BBE date is August 2011.

    I have already given two away as little pressies this morning so my good deed for the day is done!

    Very tempted to go back and get some more but it's raining.......

    Not 1p but found some books left over from world book day, the 2 story flip ones, still scanned at £1 but then came up BOGOF.
    Also in Martin Mccolls found Puppy in my Pocket single rainbow puppy pack reduced from £1.55 to 50p also the jungle in my Pocket farmyard friends also reduced to 50p.
    Daughter loves these and she's going into hospital for a little op tommorrow so will add these to her 'goodie' bag.

    thise koko truffles have yellow reduced stickers in my store too, these barcodes don't scan on the self checkers so i left it
    debating whther to try one at the till, my usual excuse for putting things back that don't scan at 1p is that there wasn't a label on the shelf but bit difficult using that excuse when theres a yellow sticker on the item with a price on

    :Dwhoop whoop!:rotfl:

    on my second outing to tescos today i manage to get 2 mega blocks 6 deoderants at one store and another 10 truffles at another:T

    miserable day for shopping but good shop:D i had to drive 16 miles out of my way to get the mega blocks. the lady at cs was very short with me when i asked for dtd but after getting off the phone she came back all courteous and thanked me for drawing her attention to the fault. I was fighting the grin as i left the shop. my very 1st dtd!!:D

    i filled my tank in their petrol st even though it's 3p cheaper at local asda. so cost me about £1.30 more. i was feeling generous........ ahahahahahaha

    Hi sorry, the original barcode is 5 051790868719 they have a big yellow reduced sticker on them, and come in a little clear cellophane pack, no header card or any thing. i think they were originally in the aisle where the party bag and candle things are, but now they're in the clearance section.
