Tesco Pharmacy - Constantine's Store?


One day, leaning on the bar, Jack says to Mike "My elbow hurts like hell. I
suppose I'd better see a Doctor!"

Listen, don't waste your time down at the surgery," Mike replies
'There's a new diagnostic computer at Tesco Pharmacy.

Just give it a urine sample and the computer will tell you what's
wrong, and what to do about it. It takes ten seconds and only costs five
quid.....a lot quicker and better than a doctor and you get Club card
points".

So Jack collects a urine sample in a small jar and takes it to Tesco.
He deposits five pounds and the computer lights up and asks for the urine
sample. He pours the sample into the slot and waits.

Ten seconds later, the computer ejects a printout: "You have tennis elbow.
Soak your arm in warm water and avoid heavy activity. It will improve in
two weeks".

That evening while thinking how amazing this new technology was, Jack began
wondering if the computer could be fooled. He
mixed some tap water, a stool sample from his dog, urine samples from his
wife and daughter and the cat, and masturbated into the mixture for good
measure.

Jack hurried back to Tesco, eager to check what would happen. He
deposits five pounds, pours in his concoction, and awaits the results.


The computer printed the following:


1)Your tap water is too hard. Get a water softener.
2) Your cat's having kittens. Get a vet
3) Your dog has ringworm. Bathe him with anti-fungal shampoo.
4) Your daughter has a cocaine habit. Get her into rehab.
5) Your wife is pregnant with twins; they aren't yours. Get a lawyer.
6) And if you don't stop playing with yourself, your elbow will never get
better........

Thank you for shopping at Tesco. Every little helps!!

We would most likely get different answers from the same tesco employee.

I was hoping Constantine or someone who has first hand knowledge of actual policy, not store gossip/rumour would answer. It must be written in a manual somewhere. IMO if you are sold x amount of goods and overcharged on each then you should get r&r on x amount. The time to mention bulk buying policy is at the checkout before purchasing.

2 packs of feather steaks (SEL - £5.99 per kg, on pack £6.49 per kg) and 3 boxes of lindt Chocs (SEL - £2.99 but scanned at £3.49) got me £17.72 R&R. CS were really helpful but they did remove the SEL's from the shelf. The rest of my shopping only came to just over £3.00. My first successful R&R, but not my last.:rotfl:

Are you based at Stevenage by any chance ? mmmmm

Any bulk purchase limit is set by an individual store, there is no company set limit.
