Tesco misprice discussion area part 13

Karnam

what brindles is trying to suggest is that if i found some xbox console only with the price 279.xx but there was ANY label saying 259.xx then it would be a genuine overcharge.

my store was labelling the console only box at 279.xx and the xbox w/pro evolution box which said 279.xx with a saving of 19.xx was incorrect as the saving was actually 39.xx as effectively the game was free. this was just in my store but xbox console only was 279.xx

Thought i had best come and advise you all of what i have just seen.
Have been at my local Tesco's this evening to pick up some birthday cards and pressies for a birthday coming up when i happened to turn down the cd /games aisle and there was a manager of some sort (didnt see if he was wearing a name badge or not) with 2 other members of staff checking all the sel's with guess what in his hand??
Pages from this website!
This may be why there has been fewer R+R'S lately. I myself havnt managed to get an R+R yet as couldnt really find much at this store last Saturday.
Thought it best i pass this info on to you all.

I bet they dont have Laura's website list

PM me if you want a look

Just a little reassurance here yes you will have the odd branch scrutinising and taking advantage of the post on this forum, however by not posting your misprices you are just giving more opportunity for pricing errors to be corrected, post your misprices and allow the masses to assault MrT they will be shorter lived but encourage others to post also, it is just about being on the ball and keeping in touch with the thread. Your find is just as likely to fall in the hands of MrT if you pm it around as it is if you post in the open forum, the difference being if posted in the open forum many many more will have an opportunity before it is closed down.

Evening all...

Went out after work tonight to blitz tescos with my 2 brothers and a mate.

And we did :rotfl:

1st store

brother 1 : 3 xbox 360 games, rocky horror dvd, all charged above sels
brother 2 : 2 xbox 360 games
mate : simpsons dvd set

Total r+r £269.xx

c/s dudes were laughing and awesome , thanks guys

store 2 brother 1 2 xbox 360 games
brother 2 1 x box 360 game

Massive argument with duty manager, offered refund, took 20 minutes, i said no thats not right, i know the policy its on the blue board! Her, nope ill r+r one, and refund 2. me : nope full refund on all please as per tesco policy
Then started accusing us of being scammers :rotfl: and buying the same xbox 360 games, i said i dont know what you mean. Then i went upto random customers in the queue and asked what they thought of tesco overcharging :rotfl: Then shouted loudly, "we have been overcharged and tesco are ripping us all off today" people looking, my brothers hiding, me going psycho Lady still refusing, claimed i know the policy, yes its on the blue board, do you know it? lady : yes : me : well we will have our money and product as per policy, she then bans us from store then decides not too, as i kicked off again announcing to the whole store that we are banned because tescos have ripped us off and broken the law. Finally gives us full r+r on 3 xbox 360 games, ( 2 seperate transactions) but accuses us of lying

So our haul

5 copies of Lego star wars on the x box 360 sel £37.97, charged £39.97
2 copies of splinter cell on the x box 360 sel £37.97, charged £39.97
simpsons series 1 dvd sel £19.97, charged £39.99
rocky horror ( sel £17.97, charged £19.97

Full r+R from 2 stores in total of £339.25 in 2 hours :rotfl:

Yeah i think you have 48hours max on the big items of getting one. But the phone keeps going on (but not really as the CS has to approve it)

An optimist may see a light where there is none, but why must the pessimist always run to blow it out?
