PES 6 is now scanning at £39. so that would make the bundle correctly priced - but they haven't changed the sels or the chart for PES 6 £37 in all stores.

So, in an effort to avoid overcharging people on the game only (thus avoiding R&Rs), they cocked up the whole Xbox 360 bundle promotion. Now they've changed the price of the game back to the original retail price, they stand a chance of letting loads of us walk out of the stores with our R&R'd copies of PES 6 due to them leaving up the old SEL. Ah, Tesco...I love your incompetence!

(PES 6 is showing as £37.97 on Tesco.com, by the way.)

Can anyone help me with this one. Lets use XBOX GAMES as example.
How comes some games in the top 10 chart are SEL at £39.96 and others at £39.97. Ive had a few games on R'R this week but they have bn labelled at £34.** or £36.** so i knew it was a sure thing.
I was tempted to try one of the games ending with SEL .96 but didnt risk it. Anyone got any thoughts on this one?

I tried a few with .96 ends and they did scan correctly, did not try all of them though

Definitely scanning at £39.97 my way, sel & chart £37

Would you r&r the same store 2 days in a row with different cs but same item or is that pushing it.

306NOTOUT

Aslong as it is a different CS bod I dont see the problem.

That could have been the store's manual fix for the misleading savings error on the Xbox 360 promo (change the price of the game to make the advertised saving correct). Bit daft if they then leave up a poster and SEL saying the game is £37!

Do me a favour? Log into Tesco.com and see what it's showing up at on there. I've checked a few stores and it's definitely showing at £37. You'll need to add a few addresses with correct post codes to be able to look at various stores, as it will show you stock in the store that does home delivery for that specific post code area. Don't do a search. To find the games, click on House and Pet (one of the clickable links near the top of the page), then click on CDs, DVDs & Games - the rest is pretty straight forward.

This is also a good way to see which booze offers have been extended, by the way...

I have R&R'd the same store two days running - I check who's on CSD as I walk in, though..
