    By class C one assumes you mean Coke*????

    Lets not pick on the simply brilliant LFC, its off topic and quite simply an even easier target than a large supermarket chain!!


    *Coke made by coca-cola beverages of course!!!

    That would be Coca-Cola Schweppes Beverages, based in Brackmills, Northampton - not too far from a recently taken-over/shut down/Eddie Stobartised Tesco Distribution Centre, no less... ;) And people think Tesco employs people specifically to hunt down/cross-reference, etc habitual R&Rers! Tesco is making people redundant, folks, not taking on more staff!

    I have a new motto for Tesco. Forget "Every Little Helps". Try "Cutting Costs At Any Cost."
    In a rut? Can't get out? Don't know why?

    It will probably be PID next. Think about it, Tesco is a company that 'costs' every action down to within an inch of its life. It can't have escaped them that, for all it pays the PID as a whole in all the stores, there are still loads of pesky R&R'ers finding misprices without too much difficulty, so effectively the job is getting done by amateurs who's only requirement is a few free products every now and again (remember, R&R'd product gets recorded as waste, similar to a box of broccoli that's gone yellow, and hence can be offset against tax.). Do these R&R'ers demand sick pay, company pension, national insurance contributions and other worker's rights? Of course not. In other words, they are CHEAP and get the job done. A little like beta testers for Microsoft's latest Windoze bloatware, I suppose. This won't have gone unnoticed at Tesco Towers, believe me. :D

    Wish me luck

    No bargains at local Tesco today and I was very disappointed, but not to worry there is another TESCO in my area and I have my list of what is taking my fancy and the price of SEL and the price Scannning.

    Not defeated just yet!:p

    Ok Guys
    I can confirm that both celebrations red tin and quality street purple tin offers are kicking in correctly:confused:
    Am now proud owner of 4 tins of choccies which at only £4.50 each will come in handy for xmas.
  • Guys, after lots of tins at Tesco today (and lots will have to go back I don't think they have fixed the glitch properly, if you buy 2 tins of the gold quality street (2 for £10) it takes double discount (7.98) off so works out at £6.02 for 2 tins!

    Hope this helps!
    Real men never follow instructions; after all they are just the manufacturer's opinion on how to put something together. :p
