Has anyone seen any xbox's with smackdown bundle?

Saw this at my local store, and it was under a heading of just xbox 279.99, but no sel for that particular bundle. But dunno what the scan price was. Maybe someone else has tried it?

Where I was it was at 299 so maybe worth a try?

The amount of posts saying things like "are there any X-boxes at the Wolverhampton branch ?"

They dont sell Xboxes in Wolverhampton mate :rotfl:

There that answers that question.

I know we all have to start somewhere, but it does take the mick sometimes. This is no way meant to offend the original posters but take a look at these and tell me that they have not been asked a few times before and whether they are fairly easy to find

"sorry for asking but what does R&R stand for?"
"Hiya guys? is there a list anywhere of self scanning tescos???"
"has anyone got the phone number for HO?"

I have no problems with newbies and welcome them as the more of us encouraging Tesco's to get their prices right the better! But please just take a minute to read a couple of the 1st pages you will learn alot.

Well, its not really like that is it. The SEL says Xbox 360 console, and behind it is an Xbox 360 console.

Its like mixing up Heinz beans in tomato sauce with salt, and Heinz beans in tomato sauce without salt, and an SEL that says Heinz beans.

In my store, (these are in the DVD cases) they have three Gears of War bundles, and behind them three premium packs on a DVD space rack, with the SEL of a premium Xbox 360 (right for the premium packs, but lower for the GoW). All the difference is on the pack is a picture of Gears of War.

I'm tempted to try this tonight, as it is very misleading...

If you do this remove the other ones that conflict with the one yo want and place them at the back of the other pile,so the one you go for has 2 other copies of the same CD case at the front.:)

uhh...didn't get that far in my thinking...sorry! umm...maybe take their offer then return it for a refund at another store? It's so frustrating

never take the difference offer!!! ask for the HO number,ring them and see where you go from there.Worst case you return for a full refund.
Never say R&R to anyone there or at HO (you shouldn't know this)
All you know is you have been overcharged and the board behind CS said in the unlikely even of tesco's overcharging you etc etc etc ........

I got my threat of a ban the other night, 2 security staff 1 meat manager and 2 other members of staff there, starts with the request of photo id as apparently my other collegues have been providing false details, then was told that what i've been doing is fraudulant and disgusting, then told by security guy that he has fortage of me doing this frequently (what of me shopping ) was told if i did it again then i would be banned from the store, then was escorted out the store to my car where my mums number plate was taken and told that they were calling the police lol.

I unfortunaly i did tell the meat manager to f off which was not the best move but i was in some shock of being accused of conspiricy to comit fraud.

I'm going to be writing a strongly worded letter to head office regarding disgusting behavior of the staff and the slander they were bantering about infront of customers and other staff members.

Hi all

Just to clear this up
the xbox had 3 systems
the core at £189 ish
the console at £259 ish
and a console with game at £259 ish
so 3 xbox 3 sel
no mention of x box with game
I picked 1 with game it scanned at £279 ish so thought all well for me

After much discusion with store manager I was told 1 with game did not have a price on it as 2 labells (£259 ) were for the console and Mr t had done nothing wrong so no r+r
Then he come out with FETCH HIM FOR GOODS OVER £50

so to clear this up for me should I have got the xbox
Do I need it in writing as has been said on here

sorry to bring my mess up again but tempted to go down MrT's now

did you pick a DVD cover up or an empty box off the shelf with the offer in front of it?

wlcf1, if you are tired of answering straight forward questions then don't! It's as simple as that. I've been watching the posts for months but as i was employed by them at the time i used it to fix my stores problems. It takes a while to get used to the site so cut the newbies some slack..

If you have been watching this thread for sometime then you must surely also be tired of the lazy questions that get asked. As has been pointed out before it is polite to do a bit of reading when joining a community. In half an hour most should have the basics nailed.
