Can anyone who tries this today post if it's still working please.

I don't think it's a case of if it's still working today as the SEL was wrong so their will be nothing for them to update on their computer. It's going to be luck if you can find the 3 for £2 SEL, so depends whether you can hit a "virgin" store:rotfl::rotfl:that hasnt already been visited by a friend of Martins!

I just went to Inverness retail park but I think someone must have beaten me to it (was it you Highland 2010?! ) There were plently left but no SEL, everything else had a label apart from this!! Typical, damn having to go to work during the day! Also had a look in Inshes but it was just a normal SEL for £2 each, no sign of any offer. Ah well, next time...

That'll of been me .. i got 6 yesterday and they removed the SEL

If I have to justify myself to you, here goes:

1. They take down the SEL as soon as they are made aware of the error, so either fill your boots while you have the chance as nobody else will get to whether you buy three or thirty or don't.

2. I live in an area full of elderly people. Yesterday, I took nine pies around to various neighbours who were all thrilled to receive them. They cost me nothing, so why not?

Got 6 at the Whitletts Road, Ayr store and then was in Kilmarnock today and went in to the one on Glasgow Road - hey presto another 6 - Did give my mum 2, my aunt 2 and my friend 2 - everyone happy.:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j

Just a word of explanation for those unfamiliar with the 'DTD' deal:

In Tesco stuff needs to go through the till at the wrong SEL price for there to be an 'overcharge'.

Question: It's no good telling the cashier at the till about the error, otherwise you'll find he/she has the power to correct the mistake at the till - then, of course, there hasn't been an overcharge, has there?

Answer: No, John.

So, when there has been an overcharge, take your goods and the receipt to the Customer Services desk, explain the error and then also explain that you want a DTD refund because you have been overcharged. Any problem with it at this stage and refer the CS assistant to the terms and conditions relating to an overcharge on the Blue Board behind him/her on the wall, where it says, "If we overcharge you we will give you back Double The Difference."
