Tesco - 75% off clearance

I spotted a small Tesco advert in the paper yesterday saying there was an 'Up to 75% off' Clearance event starting today (14th Jan) - on items including homewares, toys and bikes.

Haven't been but looked on here to see if anyone had but there seems to be no mention of it. Does it exist? Has anyone got any bargains?

    The advert did say that it wasn't available at all stores, so I guess it may be the Extra's only. It strange there's no mention of it on here but I definitely saw the advert in the paper!

    Ive just been to my local tesco and they were filling the shelves with clearance stuff, They had hand luggage sized suitcases that were 12 pound from 15 pound so not exactly 75% off them but there was other things like dog beds, barbies, ruck sacks, and loads more but ive forgot lol they were also selling ex display things like slow cookers, microwave and a printer and they were still putting more things out

    just been to our local Extra store - a whole aisle of 75% clearance stickers, but I think the only stuff thats actually 75% off is choc xmas tree decorations, the little tinsel christmas trees, and a few christmas gift bags. other stuff on the shelves there isn't even 25% off, and some of it doesn't appear to be reduced at all. Pretty random really, and no sign of any luggage.

    I went to a large store, but not extra, and the best bargain, I think, was the clear out they were having of odd wine bottles in the stock room. Bottles were marked £3.99 to £3.49, but apparently that was just to price them up. Got lots of expensive bottles - Ricossa Barolo, Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Chablis Premier Cru. I'm told these are worth lots more. Also got a discount - I bought 12 bottles, and got nearly £3 wine discount. Not sure whether it kicked in from 6 bottles or 12.

    On Wednesday went to my local Tesco and they were just putting out loads of oddments. the best buy was a spotty arch lever file complete with plastic dividers, matching pencil case and pen. Flashed cover said "crossed out £10- now £5" but actually priced over the barcode with yellow sticker @ £1!! other items were half price some crafty items- make a necklace, backing papers, highlighters pens etc. These things were not in the same place as the old Christmas stock

  • Telford extra: No 75% clearance (apart from random Xmas leftovers) - and no suitcases unfortunately. A nice half price sale on homeware though.
