    I had 32 case of this coke....none were mispriced......why.....how did i get them,then

    Well basically, the last coke offer was £6.95, and the coke was flashed £6.95, the next batch came in flashed £7.25........but were put out under the old sel of £6.95, as the people putting them out didnt realise that a new sel should have gone out with the new stock.

    While I agree that some misprices are "robbing" people, the coke is not an example of that, as the price should really be £7.25............it was the SEL that was wrong.

    I never claimed I'd been overcharged, I told them I'd been charged more than was stated on the SEL.

    Come on how come being charged more than what was stated on the SEL is not an overcharge? Is that not just what we look for?!

    SPA2k, if you follow the thread back I explained, to Aussiegirl/bird can't quite remember, that if a member of Tescos did their job correctly, there is no problem.

    But you know, as well as anybody else, there are some R&Rers go back day after day taking the pee filling their trollies up with the SAME items.
    I've said before I don't agree with this, but call me what you want, but IMO, Tesco staff who let these customers do it, ie by leaving tickets up, flyers laying around, banners hanging up etc, day after day, well sorry, you are a numpty, these staff members are responsible for losing Tesco money. Not the R&R,

    Dont know where you get this "trolly filling" evidence from, but Ive never RandRed the same thing in the same store....ever.
    Couponing....."every little hurts"

    Half of the people can be part right all of the time, Some of the people can be all right part of the time.
    But all the people can't be all right all the time. .........I think Abraham Lincoln said that.

    Sorry I am guilt of that one same store same CS, she even told the person on the particular aisle that she had asked for the correct prices to be put out earlier in the week. She obviously wasn't that observant as she didn't notice it was the same guy.:D
    I had a plan..........its here somewhere.

    I have definitely read a post or two in the past about a certain person who reckoned they loaded up their trolley with a mispriced Fosters 2 4 6 quid. They said they hamered the shop and others to the point they said they felt paranoid the security guard was watching their every step.
    Quotes in context only please.

    Double the difference.

    As someone earlier previously stated, mistakes are made so how I see it is although a higher price is charged Tesco seem to be willing to adjust that immediately. As I stated earlier what other retailers get the same treatment as Tesco ? few I expect due to their lack of an R&R policy.

    Or could be that no other retailers are so aggresive in the price changes and marketting, and therefore make a lot less mistakes.............but also wont be noticed as much because of the lack of RandR.

    OK, due to your lack of response, I assume that you realise that the above is total crap?

    But since these high value overcharges will be rarer, I suspect many of the R+R community will turn to professional coupon fraud to mitigate their losses. I believe there is a good living to be made from this.

    Some of us have already gone, but i dont think this will be permitted to continue either.

    Ps..it isnt fraud..........Coupons accepted by Tescos are then legal tender, we offer them, they are accepted.
