Sorry to butt in on your conversations, but, Im very new to this r&r thing and just wondered wether it works the other way, as in the SEL is higher than the actual price???? I bought 2 frames today reduced to £7 but scan through at £3.50. Still a good bargain though.

RandR didnt work like that,you had to be overcharged, or charged more than on the shelf edge label(the 2 are not the same), although when the policy first came out, it applied to undercharges as well.

The new policy however, mentions "incorrectly charged" (I believe), so thats another possible misinterpretation.

Last summer a friend of mine got a whole load of flyers printed basically saying something along the lines of "next time you shop please try and buy British". On three consecutive days she did a trip round asda sainsburys and tesco and put a flyer under all the car wipers,but on the second day she was spotted in the tesco carpark and was asked to leave which she did, but on day three she went back anyway. Unfortunately she was spotted in the carpark again and sadly security this time called the police, who had stern words and duly escorted her to the edge of the car park.

All she was doing was trying to promote British food, but Tesco weren't having any of it. Asda and Sainsburys either didnt notice or didnt care. I suggested that she contact the press as surely they could make a story out of such anti-British behaviour by Tesco. For some reason or other she didn't call them, although I still sometimes wonder what would of happened if she had.

A hugh percentage of customers have complained about flyers being left on thier cars and the response is to try and stop these annoying people putting flyers on. Im sure that if "Your friend" had approached the store and explained her purpose she would have been able to do it officially. Why is it anti british? The store was responding to customers requests.

A large percentage of customers have complained about flyers being left on thier cars and the response is to try and stop these annoying people putting flyers on. Im sure that if "Your friend" had approached the store and explained her purpose she would have been able to do it officially. Why is it anti british? The store was responding to customers requests.

Funny that a huge* (spelt correctly by the way) percentage of customers have complained about overcharging what have they done about that? Fvck all!
By the way you got a free thanks from me for that by mistake, under current policy you owe me two :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Or is that three? Or perhaps 2.75? pm me we can negotiate and you can rectify then.

Yes, I'd love to come back to my car to find it covered in litter telling me what I should be spending my money on :rolleyes:
It's just another form of spam but one that harms the environment as you end up with leaflets all over the place. I wonder how many of the victims' cars were actually British

You can get leaflets which are entirely bio-degradable, including the use of vegetable ink. I don't think they are telling you what to spend money on, just imploring you to consider helping out your local farmers. But someone who's [a] driving, buying from Tesco and [c] ignorant to a good message, can hardly take the moral high-ground over someone distributing leaflets for a good cause.

Still quoting me, nice to be admired.

Can't stop to swap drivel with you I have a life - full of freebies.

I can't believe you DO have a life given the number of posts you've made since you joined:p

I certainly don't admire you or your ilk. I get a little saddened about the self-righteousness that is inherent in your activities, but that is the state of this country today.:eek:
