If you are paying for very large items with cash, I think that looks more suss - who these days pays for high value stuff cash?? Plus, I wonder whether they can refuse on grounds on money laundering regs?? Many places now refuse to accept large amounts of cash for this reason.0

it could be someone is also R &R ing in your area and getting in before you.sueh6 wrote:I am genuinely convinced that my local store now police the misprice thread. I popped in on my way home to look for a couple of the 'new' misprices from yesterday (which should have had yellow SELs) and they were both showing white SELs, at the higher price. Therefore, no misprice and no R&R. Can they do this as I thought discounted products should be offered at that price even if there is a fault in the system??

Sorry to be a bit of a narna but am I right in thinking that if there are two sels and one of them has a barcode ending of say 5 and the other has a barcode ending 4 then it will scan at the price on the 5?

Could be argued that this makes it easier for Tesco to correct it, but it's certainly more useful for the average R+R hunter.
I think most of us have had christmas type chocolate biscuit tins, so I guess that counts.0
