    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    Wouldn't scan in my local Tesco either, but the SA put it through manually. Just as well really as I wouldn't have wanted to pay any more. The magazine was almost all adverts and soo non MSE ;). Off to BS tomorrow :D.

    It's only a game

    Hi Got mine in tesco today for £2 (£3.70 in Morrisons). As previously posted it would not scan but SA did it manually. The gift card is to be used by 8th July. The magazine is awful but seems to have some good freebies each month. There is an offer it to have twelve months for £12 so might be worth having.

    Tried to buy mine in Tesco today but it wouldn't scan, so they wouldn't sell it to me :eek:

    Went to Customer Service, still wouldn't sell it to me. 'It's not on the system, so we can't sell it.' Me - 'can't you over-ride it or put it in as miscelleanous?' Trout - 'No'.

    So, got home and phoned central Cusotmer Services to say 'how can you have a magazine on the shelf with a promotional price and then not be able to sell the magazine to me?!'

    They said they'd contact the store and then get back to me. Only 3 copies in the store, so surely they've sold some copies?

    I ended up buying it a M&S because I'm only going to get an opportunity to go to BS today :(

    Just an update from me - the store and CS never got back to me so I phoned again.

    To cut a long story short (I said the same to my OH last night after telling him the entire story and then said, as in Clue, 'too late'), Tesco are sending me a £5 money card for my inconvenience! So, result!

    Strangely, my small Tesco in central London had the mag this morning (didn't have it at the end of last week), so I took it up to the till and it scanned fine! So, another copy of the magazine and another trip to BS in the offing.

    Biting is excellent. It's like kissing, only there's a winner.
