    Bought 4 packs of the Pringles with the extra free and the discount kicked in.
  • Just R&R some pringles in my local store (Newcastle) but as already posted.... be careful as SEL refers to different sizes. Still got the money tho! Also the paprika (is that how you spell it?) are not in the offer.

    Wife away tonight so i'm going hunting in all three local stores.......

    To all you old timers!! This one confuses the hell out of me...I find them but never know what to say??? I did it with the 4 Lamb Chops a couple of days ago & said I thought maybe the price came up different when scanned at the till. Can't keep saying that....so come on spill the beans...how do you guys do it ??????
    "This is the 4th time this week that I have been overcharged on these Sides of Beef", goes down well at mine.

    or

    "When are you going to get these prices right?" I have been overcharged on these six Playstation 2 games again.

    My second R&R in the space of two days. Yesterday i visited a metro in covent Garden and got a successful R&R on lamp chops. today i brought three packs of Argentinan steaks and they argued i only went and brought they because i knew they were mispriced.

    I had brought some other items as well however i was sruprised i was surrounded by six memeber of staff, one customer service, one meat boy, meat supervisor, duty manager, supervisor of the store and security guard. I personally thought i was because treated like a criminal. they only wanted to refund me but i kept pointing to their policy behind the fags.

    Atfer being kept in tesco for 20 minutes, they finally came to their senses and gave the refund and gave the three steaks. The question is, they accused me of take the P, if i wanted to take the p i would have brought six steaks rather than three. How do you play this? do you lie and pretend you work in a restaurant? just tell them you've got the right as any other normal customer to have a R&R?

    even more rude, when i got my money back on the card, not once did he looked at me, saying here your card, just placed it on the counter. I even told him the ribs was also mispriced, did he say thanks? no.

    Unfortunately these mistakes are down to the store (rather than HO) so they take them personally.

    Did you ask them how they came to the conclusion that you knew they were mispriced.........and how come the person responsible for that department didnt correct it.

    When they get in this mood there little you can do (except write to HO to complain), and as you are now "marked" in that store, things will only get worse instead of better in that store. A few of us have been banned for less than this......its unfortunate, but this is the tactics that some of the staff are adopting.

    I would try other stores, but pay in cash and don't use a clubcard......this way you cant be "electronically" identified.
    Couponing....."every little hurts"

    Half of the people can be part right all of the time, Some of the people can be all right part of the time.
    But all the people can't be all right all the time. .........I think Abraham Lincoln said that.
