Tesco's didn't want my "Double the difference"

PZH

Went to Tesco's today (I know, I know...) and bought some Cooked Mussel Meat very clearly marked on the shelf as £1 - in fact the pack even had a BIG red sticker on the front showing it as £1

When I got to the self service tills the pack scanned at 80p. Well, imagine my anger at being deceived.

So, when I had completed my shopping (and quite annoyingly never once had to call the assistant over to help as everything scanned through) I went to the Customer Services desk and offered them my 40p as compensation for double the difference.

They refused.... Are they allowed to do this ??

:beer:

You should write to Terry Leahy immediately and send a cheque for 40p.
Don't forget to make it payable to their Swiss bank account, after all, you wouldn't want the UK taxman getting his hands on it, would you?

I wish that more people would "get" your post... Brilliant xx

I did chuckle at that.

I wonder how many people will just skim read it, get the information backwards then start to have a go at the OP.

Had a similar Tesco situation myself.
Armed with a voucher for £3 off a £20 spend I picked up a few bottles wine. Knowing that I would be in line for the multi buy wine discount, I picked up enough so that the final price would be just over £20. When I got to the (self scan) till, it gave me more discount than I was entitled to and my final bill was 4p short of £20 so the till would not let me use my voucher. I asked the till assistant if they could add 4p to my bill to make it £20 but they couldn't so I had to buy a bar of chocolate. Unfortunately this couldn't be added to the bill either so the assistant had to void the whole transaction and I started again...

Send a cheque for the 40p to Leahy with an invoice to cover your postal costs?

How very dare they! You should have stamped your feet and made a big scene until they were forced to relent. I'd be horrendously offended if I were you. They obviously don't think that your money is good enough for their high-faluting Tesco establishments. I think that we should organise an anti-boycott.

(Seriously, though, thank you so much. Your post has made my day! :-) )
