    didn't work for me either. I ended up paying £29.97, this was at Crown Point Denton. Both of the Stockport stores had taken the sets of the shelves.

    None in Belfast, the have a similar gift set marked at 12.99 but it doesn't have the extra pack of razors in it as far as I can tell, Saw another MSEr asking the SA about it but they didn't seem to know of any other set

    No, didn't work for me either, total to pay came to £29.97 so returned for a refund. Think this might depend on what type of till your store uses, ours changed a while ago and some of these glitches don't work anymore.

    Hi there. Went instore and the packs were there (in the mens section, rather than the gift section where all the other mens packs are). Was showing as "new" and at £19.99. However went to till to check the price and it was £9.99.

    Asked about the 3 to 2 offer at the till and was told its not the case. She said it was accidentally a 3 for 2 offer earlier today, but now the error had been rectified.

    Even though, £9.99 for one pack is pretty good.

    Didn't work for me - the packs weren't in the 3 for 2 offer so scanned at £29.97 in total - as pin says though - compared to the other packs in the 3 for 2 offer this one is good value at £9.99 if you actually wanted one :lol:

    Why should you feel rotten? You got a good deal. As for the rest of us, well we missed the boat, nothing we could do about it.

    Main store in Birmingham, came up £29.97. Queried the 3 for 2 offer, they said it was on Christmas gift sets. I said, what about the 3 for 2 on mne's toiletries, they said that they were not covered by this. When I asked where it said that they pointed to the fact that they were in a different part of the store.

    I said the 3 for 2 doesn't say it is dependent on where they are in the store. They then said gift sets weren't included. I pointed out that the t&c said excludes razors and gift sets, marked with a green label - the sets didn't have a green label so technically weren't excluded. They then pointed to the red 3 for 2 banner on the shelves under the Ted Baker gear and tried to make out only Ted Baker products were in the 3 for 2.

    By now I couldn't be bothered - I think this one falls in the 'ambiguous' category and I couldn't be bothered arguing anymore. So I took all three as they are still a great price - as I was leaving I realised I'd got triple polints on Gillette blades, so had £11 worth of points out of it! Thanks OP!
