Massive Tesco win!!!!!!!

Further to my posts in grabbit about tesco and the 1p deals for those of you who were addicted to that thread as much as me, and my subsequent bad experience and ban from a certain store after buying 1p items(which as we know according to staff in tesco, is illegal to sell these items at 1p:rotfl:), after sending a very very lengthy complaint to ceos of tesco and then a reminder today about it i have recieved an email back today.
The basics of it are and i have this in writing from tesco folks.
1.the 1p items are ,(mostly-cuponk anyone lol) genuine deals and are allowed to be sold in store it is NOT a glitch.
2. An apology from the store GM who has retrained his staff in how they dealt with me. (i wonder how long that telling of went hmmmm)
3. I am now unbanned from the store and should never have been banned in the first place.
4 The win bit- they have sent a tesco gift card to my address loaded with £30 to apologise.
see told you it was massive. an apology from tesco.
Furthermore the store gm wants to meet with me to discuss it personally to help resolve all my concerns. any one have any suggestions they want bringing up i will happily pass it along. cant wait to have my say and get a personal apology from all involved, may even be cheeky enough to ask for the 2 cuponk games they wouldnt let me buy and the 4 coffees they refused me to sell them to me for 6p.
My poor 15 yr old daughter broke her wrist i 5:eek: places tonight poor little mite was screaming in agony, all casted temp now and fingers crossed no surgery needed to fix.
get well soon honey .

    lmao banned from Tesco!!
    got a great suggestion though how about them starting up a diabetic area instore, come easter, christmas or just general treats they have no diabetic confectionary and I think thats discrimination against diabetic kids, surely they deserve treats too :) rant over lol but the do have a gluten free area, chinese area, polish area, bet there's more diabetics in UK than those three groupsput together.

    Well done getting an apology :D
