The POS reads exactly word for word "SAVE £20 When You Buy Xbox 360 Console & Any Xbox 360 Game ... offer ends 26/12/2006"

I'll try and stick a picture up later too :rolleyes:


(Post edited (again) to get the words right lol)

Oh well, just thought I'd ask, not seen them myself so didnt know.

I rang up 1 1/2hrs later, then went in and the sign wasnt there as the CS said, bit i know it was.

Personally I think that she or someone has removed the sign stating the lower price.

I think I've missed the point here - why did you phone up ? Personally I always stick to the CS like glue when they go looking for the signage/Sels etc - even when they try to make me stay at the desk. I've never had anyone remove and conceal a Sel - but then they've never had a chance seeing as I'm usually 2 steps in front of them all the way. Sutely phoning to complain just gives them all the time they need to work a flanker ?

Are there any R&R's with Xbox 360's atm?

Loads of these new yellow labels have appeared offering games and the console saving £20...

But the difference between teh game price is smaller than the difference between the xbox 360 + game price.. which is meant to be saving exactly the same amount of £20....

Thanks

Edit; Think the games i compared was Ridge Racer and Pro Evo or something like that...

Just to add my bit to this - I always use my clubcard and either tesco CC or normal visa when shopping. Never had any problems and I R&R a fair bit. I also womble weekly but make sure my points are added on another card. I've been doing this since May and no problems yet - I've had a few high value items too. Should I switch Or is everyone worrying about nothing???
Comments??

I've read on another forum that people have had their CC accounts closed and have lost all their points for wombling, they were seen on the store CCTV doing it apparently

I spotted the Goonies and Kung Fu Hustle packs stickered at £15.97, scanning at £17.97 Tuesday evening

Unfortunately my RnR opportunity was cruelly sabotaged by the assistant on checkout who noticed the different prices ( despite my best efforts to distract him with chit chat) :mad:

Does anyone have tips for how to get stickered RnR items through checkout unnoticed?

How about going thru a self scan till?

They could argue that as you have seen the price as it was scanning they have not overcharged you.

Here are my 3 tips

1) Never use your clubcard
2) Always go to normal checkouts and use cash (if you can)
3) Dont bother with items less than £10 (but if the item is £5 then buy 2 etc)

Well I'm assuming you can't use self scan as someone needs to remove the DVD from the security box., although I'm happy to be wrong on that one.

I'm happy now anyway.
I went back to the store this morning, praying the CS staff hadn't removed all the stickered DVDs. Sure enough there were some still on the shelves so I helped myself to a free copy of Kung Fu Hustle, RnR'd no problem :T

And no, I didn't follow Constantines advice to wear a low cut top to distract the cashier. As a bloke I doubt security would even let me get through the door!!

Oh, I dunno.. that would certainly distract me!

I've used the self scan tills for dvd's and perfume etc.. It usually says 'approval needed' then the person manning them will take the case off for you..
