Tesco mega reductions thread (updated)

1OTC

I have found that our store dont change the price of the 1p stock. They should actually remove the items from sale but obviously some slip through the net.

As Ive said earlier, these 1p labels relate to the discontinued lines that I think were from the recent merchandise change of the H&B section. You'll probably find most of the stock was already RTC but there must be some stock still out there.

Also, I found 2 unopened boxes of Hanson Body Mass Scale things that were £24.92 now done to about £6!!

Please Help!!! I've just joined MSE and am slightly lost. For the last 4 day's I have been visiting my Tesco Extra yet not found any Health & Beauty 1p or just chaep items is it me or could it be that all stores take turns to reduce?

People find them then buy the lot to sell at car boot sales and on Ebay. Just face it, all the people who don't deserve bargains get them, and the sensible people like you and me who would buy one or two rather than 500 do not. Sorry but that's the reality.

I apologise on behalf of the greedy scum.

(Cue all the ebayers and car booters who make money out of it, and are benefit defrauding and tax evading defending themselves.)

Another sour grapes post, no I didn't get any camera cases because I didn't look and didn't want them, but to brand all ebayers or moneysavers as benefit fraudsters is sweeping judgement to say the least,. okay so you didn't bag a bargain this time, but maybe you should be a little less judgemental and consider that maybe the individual makes a living by buying cheap and selling on as many many people do across the globe, should this person forego their income to ensure you get a camera case:? You also presume that you are in a position to apologise on behalf of others, smell the roses you are not, greedy scum or otherwise.

These are still out there if you look:

Dextra Value Personal Handsfree Suitable for Nokia 33 Series
(3210,3310, 3330, 3510/i, 3650, 8210, 8850, 8910/i)

I got some in Tiverton today. These have £2.74 on the packaging and the SEL said £2.74 as well, but the SEL was for the pop version, which does in fact scan at £2.74. However, the 33 series scans at 1p. I got a few the other day in Exeter Vale as well. Personally, I won't grab this type of bargain just to make a profit and I've offered them on my local Freecycle site.

Gillette Mach 3 Turbo Razor with 2 blades (was £5.xx) Now 1p

Gillette Mach 3 Turbo Blades 8's (was £7.xx) Now 1p


Not sure why these dropped so far today, they were not on a reduction before.

i scanned Gillette Mach 3 Turbo Blades 8's these yesterday and they were coming up as £7.84 :-(
Maybe i will look today, hubby needs new razors.

One question: i scanned some health & beauty discontined stuff at the self scan and it said "ask a member of staff" what does this mean regarding pricing -its not in the system ? its full price?

Tisserand organic tea tree soap scanned at 1p yesterday, although I have only seen it in one store. The other stuff in the range (hand pump soap) was scanning full price..
