Your right I dont use texting that much its much easier to phone someone and my phone has a slide out keyboard so text entry is really quick and easy. I get 50 free a month and maybe use 60 if that. I make about 1000 minutes maybe more of calls a month. I never really look at my bill its too scary.

Apologies if the 'Diamond R&R' post upset anyone.

On reflection I guess it doesn't add much in terms of misprice discussion and may indeed add to some confusion. (although is that a bad thing with Mr T reading the thread. Hope KK was taking notes and can pm me just to make sure I'm up to speed.)

However it doesn't really add or detract from the thread any more or any less than discussing who coined the phrase 'golden R&R'.

I guess its a fine line between keeping the tone / content enjoyable, light hearted yet still making a point and just plain upsetting people.

The original post re 'Diamond R&R' post was in fact raising the point that a misprice was listed in the misprice thread by a new user who seemed to say that they had an R&R on an undercharge, which in itself could confuse newbies, so there was some point to it. I guess the tone was over the line for some.
So once again aplogies all.

I have to say though that the term did give rise to a post stating ...
'I had a Diamond R&R on a partridge'

Which for some reason had me in stitches at the time and chuckling since.
Perhaps I'm a little too childish for all this.

Yeh, you are right of course

We all seem to criticise other peoples off topic rubbish posts, whilst forgetting about our own off topic rubbish posts.

Guilty M' Lord.

I only really look in the games section so it must have been in there I am almost certain it was on the xboxes too, but only in a few stores not all of them.

I really do need to go to bed. back in a few minutes on the laptop.

ah... the offending price label was about 6" x 4" and said

Tesco Price £184.97

Woolworths price £199.99 (or similar price - I can't actually remember)
think it may have said price check on the corner of it too.

It's an interesting one because not only are they overcharging compared to their own marked price but the sign is also claiming a greater saving against a direct competitor than they are actually providing.

Don't try La Corigia Pinot Grigio Blush Rose wine 2005, which someone suggested there might be a possible misprice on.

Yellow SEL £3.79, scanned at £3.79
(but I'd forgotten my debit card unfortunately!)

Also saw the same in an Express for £4.19.
