Tesco Price Checker Thread #8

kerri_gt

Hi All, I'm impressed at some of the results back. Had a bit of spare time this evening and wombled a few at a diff store to usual. There was one wedged in the middle of a bunch of trollys, nice and long and with cc begging to be collected....sadly couldn't get it out (where's a child with little fingers when you need one?!) The trollys needed £1 so not easy to separate plus it was right in front of the huge glass store frontage with all the checkouts so decided prob best not to draw any (more) attention to myself before security were called lol!

didn/t know the price checker was still going on.

just found it after reading mispricing, only usually read that one and 1p finds.

thanks for info will check through site and get back onto it seen as 1ps and dtd are a bit quiet at mo and i am not brave enought for bigger items.

fogt something else to look forwar dot now thanks.:j

Has anyone experienced tesco price matching with the wrong product? If so, is there a simple way of reporting it to them?

TIA

MrsBartolozzi

I have, just today. My wombled receipt had a 4 pack of Sol cans and they matched it with bottles which are always more expensive (unless on offer) so no voucher for me.
I'm not really fussed enough to kick up a stink though as it was a wombled one and would only have been worth about 50p, but the T&Cs do say that no discussion will be entered into regarding matching or not of products. What was mismatched for you Laura?

lauraland

It was nothing major, just a pack of ham which they price matched with asdas extra special range (more expensive) despite an identical product in the same price bracket being available.

its a bit of a cop out being unable to highlight it to them especially if it reduces your voucher amount. I take it this must happen alot then?

Thanks for your help

Question for you all.

I did my shopping list last night for Ts using mysupermarket.com. Infact, the time I printed my list out (with the Asda prices too so I could see the difference) was 01.35am (today)!

Terrys chocolate orange Milk (175g) appeared as 2 for £2 at Asda, but for 2 in Mr T would be £5.50 - so I'd expect to get JTD of £3.50.

So tonight, I'm getting an order ready for the TCB offer, and figured that was a good one to start off with - and noticed that in Mr T, they are £2.75, which would be right as I paid £5.50, but in Mr A it's £2 each!!!

Not sure if I'm now going to get just £1.50 or £3.50 JTD.

Either way it's not a problem, I just wondered roughly what time and day Asda and Tesco change their prices.

Thanks in advance.

Tesco's software team have finally caught up with the Pricecheck - I went through the automated checkout today, and had to have a supervisor check my receipt, instead of sailing through without any checks. The girl on duty at the checkouts STILL didn't know what to do with it. How long has it been now? 4 months??

MrsBartolozzi

Was there a prompt on the screen for them to check the receipt?
I ask as I used 2 at around 5.30pm yesterday (Tuesday) and only had the usual coupon needs checked message, the same message you get for a manufacturer's one. (I've taken to not bothering to have the recept paired with the relevant voucher any mor. I'll have to get more organised.
