    has anyone tried 9 or 12

    u may find it will be 97p for each extra 3

    ie taking £2.03 off for each extra 3 for 2

    I'd love to know if this works, perhaps someone with a self service checkout could try? Could always cancel the extra 3 if it didn't work. I'm too scared to try myself as no ss! Hoping to get some today :D

    Hello all just new to this fab site and love it ..thank you to all you lovely posters ...
    Just to confirm 12 packs go through for £7.94 :T
    I wasn't being greedy, it happened by sheer fluke, I originally went to the till with 6 of the wrong face wipes & said to the male sa ooh I thought they were on offer 3 for £3.00, he said I know the ones you mean & went to the store coming back with a full box, when the 6 scanned @ £3.97, he said ooh something's wrong here & continued adding 3 to see what they came up as ...He was really pleased & delighted for me getting a bargain when 12 came out @ £7.94 & asked me would I like them all ... now what is a girl to do? ... I took them as there was still plenty left for others ..so a big thank you to the op

    Thanks for sharing, had hoped each additional 3 would go through at 99p (or whatever the exact figure was) but at least this saves multiple trips :)

  • Thanks op had to have a proper wash this morning as i'd run out of wipes, get to work and see this thread so off I trot in my lunchtime for these, bargain (and the tesco wine and the little lads lego too!) :beer:

    Cheers, may have to go back for more, has anyone tried the fragrance free ones in the blue pack? They were on the 3 for £3!
    The art of being happy is to be satisfied with what you have :)

    I got some yesterday and the sales assistant said how great the offer was and that all the staff were getting them with their staff discount too. She said they had informed head office 2 weeks ago about the error so they are aware of it. I was trying to be discreet too buying them with other items!

    Yes they are. On Saturday I bought 3 green and 3 blues, still got them for £3.97!

    Back again tomorrow, and to the self service one in Reading this time as my local one seem to be getting used to me now lol.
