edited 14 June 2011 at 10:02AM in It's gone, but was it any good?
Today I found some kosher Cabernet Sauvignon that went thru the tills at 79p !
I was looking at the small kosher section and on the bottom shelf were several wines. One had a SEL that said £16.33, crossed out, then £15.99 crossed out, then a big 79p. I thought hmm that must be a big mistake
I had a scan n shop scanner on my trolley so I scanned the barcode and on my scanner it was £15.99. So I thought well they might give me DTD or I can ask for DTD or I can ask for it at 79p. The worst that can Happen is I'll get a refund.
Anyway didn't it blinking well go through the tills at 79p ! So I paid for my shopping got another scanner out and went and got the remaining 5 bottles.
Its Barkan 20 months barrel aged Cabernet Sauvignon Galil 2007 from Israel. It also has a big security tag on it.
And also they had kosher Gefen Classic Marinara Pasta sauce reduced on SEL from £2.99 to 13p and that went through @13p.
Not every Tesco has a kosher section.
Still virtually alcohol free since 4/1/15. (10 Xmas/ New Year/Birthday drinks)
It takes 3500 calories to lose a pound in weight. Target 13 lbs weight loss. 18.5lbs lost 2nd May - 28 September.

    Thanks Caroc! Not sure if my local has a kosher section but will look later. Stupid sounding question, but is kosher wine any different (taste wise, ect) to regular wine?

    I've never had kosher wine I shouldn't think so as I believe that its a blessing by a rabbi on the food and drink for consumption. I've had kosher scottish raspberry jam and kosher french mustard and they tasted the same as non.

    I think your thinking of halal wine :)


    Anyone wondering if their local(s) have a kosher dept, put your postcode into here, then click onto the link for the store and it tells you what departments they have

    Sadly, mine doesn't have a kosher dept

  • Gallion's reach will possibly have it, as they have a kosher dept - that's the closest Tesco to my dad with a Kosher dept.
