Tesco offer change day?

Hi,

Does anyone know which day of the week Tesco make changes to their offers (for those that change each week) please? Obviously some stay on longer.

Lidl/Aldi tend to be Thursday IIRC, and Sainsburys was always Tuesday each week when I worked there many years ago.

Thanks!

    Sainsburys is wednesdays but the offers would tend to be changed or prepared for trade on wednesday morning. It would also depend as some offers would last for 2, 3 or maybe 4 weeks but there would always be a plinth change on a tuesday afternoon.

    Aldi and lidl well it depends on when they're specials are eg sundays and thursdays are specials days at aldi so wed and saturday the current specials would either be condensed or some would be moved out into the warehouse so enough room was created for the new specials whcih were brought out mid afternoon/late evening.

    Not sure about tesco and morrisons but its been covered on here

    Sainsburys changes offers on Wednesdays. On some occasions where they have a better than half price or buy 1 get 2 free, it starts on Wednesday and ends on Sunday.

    If you ever want to find out when an offer expires in Sainsburys, look at the large barker such as this one with the free iTunes voucher

    On the bottom right handside, you will see this 123456/170811/300811 The last number is the date where the offer will end.

    Morrisons changeover day is Sunday as my ex used to dress the plinths once the store was closed.

    tesco offers change wednesday mornings on a 3week basis for most offers
  • I thought I would save money by switching to Tesco but what a mistake that was and I'll never use them again. All offers in Tesco stop a week before the end of the month and start again a week in to the month so if you are planning a monthly shop to coincide with being paid you'll be paying top dollar! Also I started using the website 'mysupermarket.com' which compares supermarkets and found that my shopping at Asda was £25 cheaper than at Tesco, infact Sainsbury's was cheaper than Tesco. So avoid the supermarket monster that is Tesco the quality is poor, prices high and all I can think that its got going for them is the number of stores!
