    lol...if thats a dig at me then I take offence...everything I got were gifts for other people or friends....I havent cleared the shelves...but I HAVE,as Angelina states put in the time and effort to go many times to have a look for these bargains...not expecting to put a post on here asking people to do the looking and buying for me. I replied to Nabeela before telling her the T*ton store was worth a shot....not my fault if shes not been to that store or any of the others. There are still lots of sale stuff at the T*ton store (and others)...but Nabeela, and others need to get off their backsides and go annd look for themselves, not ask people on here to do it for them!:)

    Lol ive been tescos several times since the silly priced electrical items but i think im doing something wrong lol! Im too scared to keep going to the scanner and checking the price of stuff because theres too many people near the scanner lol, i need to have more guts and get up and scan all the items thats im looking for lol. Thanks for your help x :D

    Couldn't think of anything witty to say so just keeping the space until I can :(

    its not too bad in the stores that have a self scanner...that way you can do it 'in private' :) but the stores without a scanner (or those that have broken or switched off ones)...you just have to find the bravado to fill a trolley and ask someone at the tills to scan eveything...sometimes they'llbe happy to do it, other times they wont...but they'll still do it! and its worth it if you get a bargain!

    so if you go again...or for the next time theres bargains galore...leave the shyness at home...get bolshy, and dive in with the rest of us and get scanning!!!:)
    hoping for a very MSE Ts glitching 2012!
