    Just been to Bradford Peel Centre to look for Roses and Mice. The Roses had been cleared out, just the empty tray so someone has bought them today. Managed to get 3 mice though, one for each computer. Felt like a thief buying them, never been so nervous in my life.

    Think I will check out the other Tesco in town tomorrow.

    or ebay them :D cant belive they selling a £30 item for 1p they dumb.

    welll done to finders right place right time :cool:

    Yessssssssssssssssssss!!! Thank you to all you lovely people, I finally got my first 1p item from Tesco today :) I had already been to the price scanner once with some harpic and noodles, but no luck, then went past the choccie aisle and saw the roses with an SEL of £1.32. Took one back to the price checker, and sure enough - 1p. So I picked up 10 and left 8 there, then had to decide which SA to try as they all looked grumpy - then cheerful bloke got on a till, so I made a beeline. I tried to keep him talking so he wouldnt notice the price, but he just said Wow thats a bargain and fair play to me for finding them lol :) He said they have never been told not to sell penny items, and if Tesco had got their stock ordering wrong it was their own fault :) I was tempted to go back in for me but decided to quit whilst ahead. I have been searching for months and had all but given up hope, so it pays to persevere :)

    Sorry to ask, but would someone mind telling me what chilli nuts I am looking for? OH loves things like this and I'd love to try and bag a few tomorrow.

    BTW, many thanks for the prev posts about the 20p pasta sauce...though sadly now up at 38p in my local store now (an outrageous price lol!)

    OMG!! why did i start reading all the tesco threads again! Gave up after DTD free stuff as it was taking over my life, and now wanna get back into things so help me please!!

    Gonna go tomorrow and get:

    Lenor x 2
    Fairy x 2 650 ml
    Dove
    Ariel x 2

    All above to do RTD with asdaafter using my coupons - just printed from SSM
    Will have to buy a few DOVEs - printed off with diff email addresse
    Have also just printed off the onepenny items list and will give it a go and see what I can get my greedy little mitts on

    Does that sound right to people?? any advice very welcome,

    I also have loads of returns to do - tesco clothes and B&Q so mite nip into 2 differnt tescos and see how it goes.

    My poor kids.... will have to drag all 3 of them with me tomorrow!

    Dove Beauty now min of £1.96 at Asda, so you're best getting at T's. Just watch out if you're doing something where you want to get the TPC back, don't mix it with Fairy or any other regular shopping as could well reduce your money back. Fairy will knock off 30p off as 2 in A's will cost you £2.80 over £2.50 in T's.

    Don't be sorry to ask! My old boss used to say "there's no such thing as a stupid question, only a stupid answer" :)

    I haven't brought the chilli nuts myself but here's the info off pennyitems.co.uk

    Tesco sweet chilli peanuts 22p
