just to let you know tesco top valley refunded double and gave me the item back with no questions asked, so i got the item and they gave me 99p extra to take it.result!

My first ever DtD.

Went to Tesco last night and bought 2x Tesco Finest Chicken with Mozzeralla and Pancetta.

There was a yellow sign saying 2 for £5 (original price £3.99 each).

When I was packing up the car I noticed that I had been charged full price for the two (£7.98) I had doubts as to whether I had the courage to go challenge the price, but eventually armed with receipt I went back in. It was 3 o'clock in the morning (don't ask) and I didn't think they would have the correct staff to deal with the overcharge, however I was directed to the night manager. He asked me to go and get the items back out of my car (back out to the freezing cold). I was then marched to the fridges to prove my claim (at this point I started to doubt myself... had the price been right... could I deal with the humilation of all the staff thinking I was being petty... I was obviously inconveniencing the manager due to the look of disgust on his face and the fact he hadn't said a word to me).

Anyway price was right.. so I was marched back to cs desk. He rung some stuff through the till and offered me back £2.98. I looked round for a sign stating the DtD policy - which to be frank I wasn't fully sure I understood - there wasn't one but I thought sod it in for a penny in for a pound. I asked him if they were not supposed to refund DtD on misprices to which he asked "do we?" and put a big display on about looking around him for written guidance - I stayed silent mostly dumbstruck at such a pathetic show of trying to save face to which I duely received £5.96!! Yah!

Result: 2x really nice chicken things for £2.03!

We got a Babyliss Hairdryer at Tesco Direct in Staines on Wednesday - it was priced at £29.99 but coming up at £32.00 - the chap on the tills spotted it & got it overridden so we paid the correct price.

In case anyone wants one for Christmas with some money off?

Not sure whether this is the same leaflet as Geomum's post, but the one I picked up today contains a coupon for £2.50 off H&B products when you spend £10.00. I was given the discount (even though the coupon was refused) when I bought contact lense solutions today in Abingdon.
