    Irritatingly enough, there is evidence of huge inconsistencies across stores. Some reduce things and some don't. I don't know if it has something to do with general sales of particular products in certain areas or not but it is really flaming annoying!!!

    OK, I missed out on the super cheap laptops and netbooks but today I bought a BMW convertible from Tesco, was priced at £14,500 but scanned at £21,680 so got DTD and Morrison's £6 off voucher = new car for £134 and clubcard points too .

    Beat that :T

    Part of the Furniture
    I have been looking for ages for a hand held car vac with no success and a cheap hairdryer. I have found one or two of the vacs people have reported success with, but they have scanned at full price for me. Either the store must have corrected the prices (but I have checked in at least six different stores) or some things must be on a different bar code.

    I picked up some hair straighteners the other day, there were 3 on the shelf, all the same box/packaging. One scanned at £1.84 but the other 2 scanned at full price - the cheap one had a different bar code.

    Whilst it takes a little longer, it would be great if people who are reporting good successes could take a minute longer and post the bar code. This would be really handy too for checking at the stores which don't have any scanners (or working scanners).

    Thanks in advance.
  • Does anyone know if e-kindle have been reduced? if so to what price? anyone got a spare or know where i can get one? thanks, james

    The model number for the Technika 7" Twin Portable DVD Player which has been found at £24 end SS10. The ones ending AW11 have been scannning between £75 & £99. The latter price is store specific and to do with promotion rather than clearance.

    I really wanted one of these for the car but there weren't any in my local stores. I did however, find the newer model (AW11) with an out of date SEL stating it was £79.97. As I needed it and had two different £10 off Morrisons voucher and a £5 off Tesco electricals voucher, I thought I'd just get it.

    Of course I took my receipt to CS for double the difference (£40) and still had my £25 off making it £34.97 which I was happy with.

    Check the SEL dates of items on promotion and make the most of newspaper vouchers; I always buy a couple of papers, sometimes 3 if they are as much as £10 off. If I don't use them all, I always offer them to someone else who is shopping so they don't go to waste.

    HTH :)


    you sure its the ss10's that are cheaper???

    can anyone confirm? i thought it was the AW ones? saw loads at a store today!!
