    So now we are not only confuddled about topside or silverside but the barcodes are now source for speculation. It's like doing the National Lottery with both having the same chances of winning!!!

( have read the posts but seems too easy!)

    thanks to everyone for posting

    looks right to me!! It is soooo easy - if the same stuff is still on you can then use your voucher and go and do it all over again:T

    can i say from the start this is NOT a north south debate

    however i think there are huge differences with tesco staff between the n and s

    i have said before my oh works for tesco but not in retail but he does visit stores in the north and south

    he said the difference between the staff is unbelievable ,generally (and i dont mean everyone ) store staff in the south are a nightmare to deal with very demanding and quite rude ( and he works for tesco!)
    now my oh has lived in the south for many years before coming home a few years ago and he truly loved the south and never felt that the " its friendlier in the north" was true however he is completely convinced this is the case with tesco staff:rotfl:
    i think he has a point looking at some of the posts on here on how sa are treating people :D

    Does anyone remember a Watchdog/Rogue traders article a while ago about Mr T mislabelling Beef joints?

    A quick 'google' came up with this.

    Clearly they [Tesco] found it hard to make a promise they couldn't keep." Asda Spokesperson.

    I say Tesco found it EASY to make promises it still cannot keep.

    yes thats right ......providing that is all you bought though... you didnt put other things like `normal shopping` in that basket too did you?
    It`s nice to be important, but its more important to be nice.
