Oh for god's sake, how ridiculous is that??! It's like being back at school again! Like the manager is going to lose his pay packet over a few mis-priced items. Get a life you miserable sod!I hate twitches, but I LOVE glitches!!!0 -

Manager came along and then advised they could not sell them to me as they were EPW - I advised that if they couldnt sell them to me why were they on the shelf and he had no reply, so i asked if he would then be selling them to staff to which he again did not reply.
If anyone is passing this store there was a brand new unopened box sitting on the top shelf so might be worth another go if the shelf has been restocked :-(((
EPW is emeregency product withdrawal, usually this applies when a manufacturer has done a recall because of faults or health issues, maybe just Tesco's way of stopping selling them at 1p, but then this mens EPW doesn't work as some stores are still selling 1p items!0 -

I went into my local store (Derby Metro) and they only had the Roses that were on offer for £3.

Instead of putting the emphasis on the staff, why are the shelves still stocked and restocked in some stores, with 1p items?
Tesco Managers really peedle me off sometimes.0 -
havent found a 1p item in a while now
still after meeting my friend in tesco we came away with 10 doves each
(no corn, chocs or harpics)
in reduced section we got some 10pack small document wallets 25p from £1 these are fab to keep all your coupons together in your bag
we tried the dtd finest meals 2 for £6 indian and thai/chinese it didnt take the offer off at the till went to cs she said has to be the same meals ie 2 indian she checked the SEL and said it doesnt state it clear enough as they were stacked together in the same section so offered to let us have them 2 for £6 but wouldnt class it as an overcharge for dtd - we didnt bother just got a refund instead, could be worth a try in other stores just depends on the trout i guess . . . .Take care of the pence and the pounds will take care of themselvesSealed Pot Challenge No.1902 - Target £250 :cool2:0 -
Hi Everyone, I have never posted before I went to Tesco In Northampton about 3.30pm and I wanted a new mouse for my pc. I found the Microsoft 3500 mouse in purple and when I went to the till it was going through as just 1p.
The barcode for the item is 85370217513 I would post a picture of the receipt and a picture of the product but not sure how to do this.
I picked up three and I am sure there are more to be found.0 -
