    Its got to be worth going instore and looking for things that are marked up as 20% off and seeing if they come up at 20% of the original price, as it seems to be a bit of a trend at the moment, i might get to do this later this evening - if so will report back my findings, but if someone else gets a chance before me please report back here
    thanks xx

    OMG, I sooo hope they won't fix it until late tonight so I can go and get all the bargains after work! Like 16pc cutlery sets for 2.00GBP instead of 10 or 12! :)

    None of the £52 knife drawer sets in my local Tesco Extra, but I got some reduced potatoes and bread instead. ;)

    Oooh I hope it works on anything in the 20% reductions!

    Everything will be ok in the end, and if it isn't ok then it isn't the end :)

    Is it only homeware and garden with the 20% off?

    Would these items scan on a pricechecker with the discount or is it just at the tills?

    Sounds like a great deal....fingers crossed its in my local store :)

    I got the knife block for £13 aswell and i can confirm that not all but a fair few of the 20% offers are going through with this glitch.

    Most of the Go cook saucepans and frying pans are and a couple of of cake tins aswell.
