    Started small you know...a little bit of cheese here...some bacon there..nothing big.

    But oh the BUZZZ. I had to have more...eyes scouring tickets..heart jumping when the date had long gone.

    Lifting the pack my hands tremble as I approach the desk. My eyes downcast bumbling and mumbling till I scurry out the door with another score in my bag.

    Lifting my head as I exit the store,looking up at a cloudless sky a small flicker of my lips breaks out to a huge grin.

    That inevitable, oh so needed and anticipated, tingle rushes through me as I almost skip to the car. Stuffing the bag in the boot chuckling to myself.

    Half expecting a hand on my shoulder asking for the bag. Slipping into the drivers seat I sink into the chair, breath deeply then break into almost uncontrollable laughter as I turn the ignition.

    The next day the need returns. The craving must be satified.

    How fondly I remember that xbox overcharge although it seems so long ago now that tingle...must...get..it..back.

    ah well...I suppose some stella and a second little tv will have to substitute as a soothing salve.

    you've been at that free gaymers haven't you ?

  • Managed to get 3 packs of organic mince, the member of staff was so bemused when I pointed out the misprice he put a fourth pack in my shopping by mistake!

    However, when rechecking my receipt I noticed that I had been charged for 3 packs of haddock instead of 2 - whats the policy on that? (apart from obviously a refund for the non-existant item)

    Hello folks,
    first post so forgive any breaches of etiquette and please correct me if anything is unsuitable

    Regarding Tesco store locations,
    on this site which is dedicated to all manner of sat nav equipment etc
    http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/ can be found 'p.o.i' (points of interest) lists which detail all of the tesco stores in the u.k for your sat nav system
    just used mine to find i have 45+ stores within a 25 mile radius.
    The poi lists also have lists of locations of most other high st retailers.
    hope it may be helpful to folks

    Yes....Good site....Make sure you get the latest dated file......they're still not all on, ...saves a bundle of time.....first time I used it was in the dark......RandRed a £129 phone....Was away from home, and wouldnt have found my way to the store without it..............certainly wouldnt have found my way back to the Travelodge.

  • Look what I've got ....

    Picture.jpg

    I went to my nearest T tonight and saw the Moto Pebl with the 'wrong' offer. Bought £20 worth of shopping and the phone, went to collect it and then 'noticed' that the £20 hadn't come off (but only after I saw the phone box).

    Accompanied cs to display, pointed out the different labels on other offer phones in response to arguments of why it hadn't come off. She offered £20, but I refused so the manager was called. After looking at the display himself, he would only offer the £20 as a 'goodwill gesture'. Decided to take it and the phone and phone HO tomorrow.

    Was allowed to leave with the evidence though - so will take it on as I haven't contected ho about anything before.

    But this prooves that the label does exist ;)

    Try not to use scanners though, they are watched by security staff in some stores (I know that for a fact)

    The security staff should be watching out for the real thieves i.e shoplifters

    Hate to spoil the party- but look in the bottom right hand corner

    terms and conditions apply

    they could say the asterix and thus t&c's apply to the virgin and voda airtime promotion.

    Was just about to mention that myself. What terms and conditions are listed on the leaflet/brochure?
