Tesco misprice discussion area part 14

Hi pep's has anyone got Sir T's address?
Writing a letter of complaint about the way i have been treated...

Felix_the_Foccer

Why, if I post some useful info on the Misprice thread at 3am this morning(which looking back it should/coul;d have been on this one ...)

Why then, (and at least 4 people had thanked me for it this morning alone), why does a MOD delete the whole post and simply not move it to the right one ...

A brief explanation would have been nice ... there's plenty of posts on that misprice thread still there that are less useful than the one I put up in regard to the champagne.....

Please DON'T delete this post either

Ahhhh ..... I take it all back ....

It always amazes me when people say "I went to tescos last night and couldnt find anything" why not move onto the next store? I went to 8 stores on wednesday and only walked out of 1 empty handed!

Chances are that if 'Tesco Travellers' have cleared out your local store - They've probably cleared out the surounding ones.



Personally, I don't have the time in between work & family commitments :A

well done you! i would totally travel x miles to get what i wanted. going to do this on sat actually-hit all the tescos in about a 50mile distance. however, they are mainly tesco metros here-still worth it?

Plushchris- just out of interest, how much stuff were you averagaing in each store? did you put them with a normal food shop? just looking for tips really.

As these were stores I'm not likely to be visiting again anytime soon I was quite blatent about it, getting £40 - £70 worth of R&R in each store, if they were lucky I might have also bought a bottle of coke or mars bar/whatever, also had the OH with me so we could employ the classic "pincer movement" on CS should the need arise (and it did )

And no such thing as a normal food shop for me nowadays, I'll have whatever Tescos is offering on R&R and do the rest of my food shopping elsewhere!

:rotfl: :T

good idea. i'm off to a store tomorrow that i won't be visiting again soon-just hope they have what i want (dvds mainly).

my OH will be with me too-can I ask (maybe sounding stupid) but what is the 'classic pincer movement'?

I would hardly say I "cleared out" any of the stores I visited, I know for a fact I left quite a few mispriced items in most of the stores as I was only really after beer and DVDs for Christmas.

I actually took the liberty of hiding some of the stickered triple pack DVDs behind all the other non-stickered ones to give all the other MSErs out there a sporting chance and have told a couple of people I know who use the area they are there!

Wouldnt surprise me if most of the people that post on here saying they cant find stuff dont actually bother looking behind the non stickered things in the first place!

LOL

Its just a term we use when we split up an go to the CS desk seperately, it works especially well in those stores that have a CS desk on a corner so you can both visit without being next to each other, the hardest part is not looking at each other and laughing!

I did with the DVD's and Gorden Ramsey books last night. My local is defo on someone elses round. Started to feel the camera zooming in me after 10mins of browsing. I also started to look at the shoppers around me and thought they were looking for the same misprices. :rotfl:
