Tesco misprice discussion area part 15

Vegas07_2

Just to say, I used to be a Tesco employee back in 2001-2003 and one week I bought a CD, copied it and took it back an exchange. Of course I knew all the staff so they were happy to exchange for me. So I took advantage of this and about twice a month I'd take the latest CD back and exchange it, copy the new one and take that back, exchange it etc.

Never got questioned/stopped about it as I was careful to rotate the CS staff, managed to get about 10 free CDs for the price of 1 until I got bored of copying and started downloading instead - less effort

Surely its against the DPA, for DVLC to give out personal details from anyones car registration except to "the law"

I find it hard to believe otherwise.

Probably the automatic number plate registering system that petrol stations use to stop you driving off without paying, just records your number but thats all

No, Mrs 306 is a Midwife and she looks alright in her uniform

Bet she looks better out of it :whistle:

Also, my mum worked in the department they call FMC - her job was to actually go round the store and scan every single item in her assigned area to make sure the SELs matched the scanning price.

The simple answers is - Tesco don't employ enough staff to do this job so a product could be a potential R&R for days/weeks depending on when the person doing the same job as my mum used to gets to it!

Just wondering about 24 hour opening and offers ending.

Say, for example, an offer ends on a Thursday, does the scan price get updated at midnight?

Just wondering if it is worth staying up late.....

Have a look at the last paragraph here

I'm sure that they could come up with a 'reason'.

Are you saying I look bad in mine? Actually it's very fetching! Few fish scales here or there can be appealing to some!
