1p finds at Tesco thread

have to agree with domthemon, its only illegal if it had a 1p price sticker on it and they put a sticker over that with say 25p.
the barcode is just the method of selling it and they can cover that with whatever they like.

....and I know of several Tesco's that stick 'reduced' stickers Inc barcode over barcodes of products that will sell for less if scanned on the original barcode. The items are discontinued and reduced to pennies but the stores had already reduced them by a pittance and they sit on the shelf for months. Nothing illegal about this as the price marked is the price you pay.

HMV cover every barcode in the store with their own sticker and have done so for years

I got 4 little Princes Chilli & Rice pots about a month back. It said 1p on the shelf edge but they were on the top shelf in the ambient aisle and pushed right to the back. I didn't even know that Tesco were doing this with a few items then I was just looking for some lunch and couldn't believe my luck. The cashier commented that they came up as 1p and did I know and I said I did because the shelf edge said 1p!! She was shocked but put the sale through as normal. I just thought I'd got lucky with some kind of pricing error and didn't feel guilty because Mr T gets more than enough of my hard-earned!
