    Probably 'Watch out here he comes!'

    Only joking, they probably say similar about me in the stores I visit.;)


    lol, he's a she...im 5 ft 5 and have 2 kids in toe, and the tannoy always asks for the manager to go to cs, within minutes there is an employee behing me with a sticker gun, never stickers anything just looks like they want to, Im a bit too long in the tooth to be unaware of it and definately not paranoid, I know what they are doing and they know what Im doing difference is Im not breaking the law and they do every time they price something one price and charge another. I wont be bullied and its so clicky here they obviously think they can, but we'll just have to wait and see ...;) my kids are getting quite good at it now, (scanning etc) it may not be long before the whole gang of their mates go in and scan every ps2 game on a daily basis going on their comments when my kids told them how they got a free xbox...oh well better than hanging around street corners, lol

    Try something small so that it doesn't matter if it goes through at the right price, stickered books/cd/dvds are good for r&r as they don't need to check the shelf ticket. Once you've started you'll be hooked.


    floflo is dead right, my advice is to walk away though !!!!!!!!!

    it becomes an addiction

    LOL you are funny Flo! I would be so embarrassed if I had that sort of attention. I admire the ones who can still walk into Tesco with their head held high.

    I do try not to r&r too much in my local but its hard to leave it once you've spotted something. Cs changed recently so I'm getting to know the new staff. I'll visit them quite regularly with small bits for awhile and then keep a low profile for awhile. One said the other day 'Oh theres quite a bit wrong today'. and my reply was that I usually shop online but that when I shop instore I always check my prices. I won't do it if the one guys on there though had a telly ages ago refunded by him and I'm sure I go red everytime he looks at me.

    Personally I would just stop doing at this store, It isn't long before you are given a ban. I have now stopped going for any r&r's within a 30 mile radius of where I live, it just isn't worth the embarrasment of a ban in my local stores.

    I would also say to the person who got the banning letter today....re the points

    .......I have had over a 1000 points deducted from clubcard total (r&r points) so maybe thay are onto me?, however, I no longer use the clubcard or credit/debit cards anymore.

    I'm trying to compile a list of games prices. The online store has several prices, Jersey, Extra etc.

    However, the games I had RnR'd this week are still cheaper online via Extra, then they are instore, this with delivery added!!

    Big balls of POO! I hate having to scan the blighters!

    I think you must have missed the OP's original post onthis subject

    I dont want to make it obvious to where I am but lets just say that where I live we only have 1 tesco without having to get on a boat to go to another...leaving it impossible for me to travel and make it worth my while unless I know Im going out for lots of x boxes and an expensive chance to take.
    Unquote

    Its either here or nowhere by the sounds of it.

    Theres a lot of us had points deducted....The next thing for you is possibly a letter.

    But all the people can't be all right all the time. .........I think Abraham Lincoln said that.

    It does become an addiction.. it was only yesterday that my GF Aunty was saying "take me shppoing and show me how its done" I took her an she put Lost in her basket as soon as she saw it. She didnt even look at the prices. luckily i stopped her before she went to the checkout as this one wasnt mispriced. She said "but you said lost was coming up over charged" "in some stores but you cant just pick it up..you got to check the labels"

    We settled for 16cans of fosters in the end!! :beer:
