    I think the cameras should ur just under £60 too ? you paid 139.?? overcharge of 40.
    Which means you got £80 refund per camera so unless CS messed up you paid 59.?? for each.

    You can get that camera on the Internet for £60 so not so much of a bargain really, it's ok if you were planning to buy them I guess.

    I did need a new camera anyway :) Other one will do as a xmas present.
    Cant see it for £60 anywhere without any kind of delivery charge either.

    Evening all!

    I decided to go to Tesco today for a little OOD SEL hunt, I managed to find the twin pack of Panasonic phones, completely nowhere near their SEL, but with a bit of hunting managed to find one, was walking down the aisle to go to a price checker when I saw a Canon printer, think it was something like MP45 (just looked on Tesco Direct, its the MP495), not the photo one that was posted previously, but a wireless printer (which I am after btw). So not having enough cash on me to cover the initial overcharge of both items, I put the phones back and went to price check the printer. The SEL said better that half price £39.99 ish, so original price was I think £90, but scanned at £39.99 :(.
    What I was wondering was if between us all we could get it pricechecked each day to see if it goes up while the SEL states the lower price, the date on the SEL was 12/07/11.
    Also could anybody please tell me if the phones are scanning at full price as I never had chance to check them. TIA
    On the upside though I did manage to get 2 finest choc puds, the first time ever they had been at my store.:j
    Also, how would you lovely peeps explain why you didn't notice being charged more than twice what you were expecting to pay when you are claiming your DTD, coz I'm absolutely petrified that if I go for the phones and they ask me why I didn't notice when the SA asked me for £40 more than I was expecting to pay. I always pay in cash, so I can't say that I didn't hear and jsut handed my card over, just wondering what the best excuse is lol

    I would say that I wanted the item and didn't want to cause embarrasment at the till so paid, knowing I could get a refund if I was wrong with the SEL (never say SEL, they think you know to muchthen, just say label) -product in wrong place etc. But you went and checked and the Label does say £xx.xx and you happened to remember the nice lady on the service desk told you about the double refund when you bought a Pair of Knickers/box of dogfood/packet of crisps/tube of pile cream *(delete as appropriate) while waiting in the queue.

    That doesn't sound too bad, just act dumb, I think I could do that lol.
    Would definitely mention the pile cream, just to cause them the most embarrassment :rotfl:

    Tesco 30cm Woodlands Trough - b/code 5014348283396

    Listed on SEL as a New Item, and there are lots others in this range that I haven't seen before which are all £1, but SEL for this item is 10p, scans at 10p too.

    I got 7, but the woman in front of me cleared out one section of the store and got about 15 of them.

    I found my stash on a different shelf.

    They are a plastic ceramic effect planting trough, ideal for windowsills etc.

    HTH..

    cheers i managed to find 4 earlier :j
    Take care of the pence and the pounds will take care of themselves :)
