I have been lurking for a while and not good with the PC - being an old biddy as the grand children would say.
I have just popped in to my (oxon) local tesco

and the Black Magic 188g
is scanning at £4 with extra club card points I think 50 extra points
short shelf life aug 2011 . had to go self service made an excuse left my purse at home and cancelled had loads on the shelf will keep my eye on them

Thank you so much, you have put us all out of our misery ad we will sleep soundly tonight:rotfl:Right off to catch up on Emmerdale!

But isn't it the larger box thats supposed to be 1p? It seems the 188g box is a small square box but the reduced ones I saw few weeks ago was a big rectangle box!

Sometimes I really wish I lived next door to tescos..

Thanks but i have a cupboard full atm from when they first were 20p x

I have tried to limit myself to just getting a couple and using them up before replacing....except now every time i go into my local T and don't find the 1p item I'm looking for I seem to come out with more pasta sauces instead :rotfl: (That and Branston beans while they are on BOGOF)

I've only just caught up with this thread after spending 2 hours in sainsburys buying up the meal deal glitch!

And I drove past tesco to get home, should have checked phone on way home!

Don't need black magic chocs but if they end up 1p....
The worst part about all this is that I have 36 boxes of the finest Belgian chocs, over 40 of the roses, and now some lovely rich mains, sides, and deserts from sainsburys + wine..................... and I'm coming to the end of my second week of Atkins! So cannot touch a thing!!! My wife will need Atkins if she eats my share!

They did say it was a large box but again i cannot confirm as i do not know myself!They did mention something about it being very long. lol. I am only trying to help so please don''t be mad if it doesn't work out. I like it here (lol). Wish i had found a 1p bargain, none yet to report!

I am also waiting to see if any report come in for them being 1p. Forgot to mention earlier, not a glitch but Tesco own play doh set, 3 tubs of small play doh along with shape cutters (you know to cut the play doh into animals, flowers etc, are marked at 75p reduced from £2.00. HTH someone! blue box

I really am going to bed now but I think you're right, the boxes I've seen are the really big boxes, I'm sure they have them in my T's on the top shelves, or maybe I'm just hoping they do:rotfl:

Basically i had a row (friendly row) because i hadnt told that person about them being 1p, but i said if i didn't tell you its because i didn't know, which means you should tell me so i can check stock in my area before its too late, some stores may still have them (cryptic i know)

just drove 5 miles to my nearest store (taunton) open now and they only had 188g boxes of blackmagic and these went through at the full price of £4 :~( might be worth checking in other stores for larger boxes but these were the only ones i could find - sorry can't be more helpful.

also checked out the catfood that was reported earlier and that was also full price

in fact could find nothing, but nothing ventured nothing gained

I'd never get mad if it doesn't work out, the excitement of not really knowing if you'll find something or if it will work is all part of the fun, kinda like gambling
