I'm trying to compile a list as well, I've just come back from Tesco and nothing obvious maybe I need to look in the place where it should be also.

A list would be really helpful to others... i have my list all hand written so cannot post.

P.S. Why are we writing store names in disguise ?

I've wondered this myself. If an actual Tesco employee was reading it they would easily be able to work it out or if it was done by a computer programme searching keywords it would be naive of the programmer not to have included obvious simple alterations so that the search was still productive. Either way i'd say people may as well just put the actual place...unless they want to feel they are beating the system (which they probably aren't).

Ashford Cr00ksf00t put out heavily reduced electrical items yesterday and not much left today

SA told me that 1 lady alone brought 15 of the same thing :eek:

Picked up lots of other bargains tho so happy with that.

Quite a few of the Sony headphones there too, scanning £4

Tesco own brand, padded ones were 90p, SEL said £2.00 with a small star
Found no cameras and the flip camcorders are the tripod ones

Overheard the daily group hugin tesco this morning where this was being discussed. They are looking at limiting what people can buy because of clear abuse by individuals that is causing bad feeling amongst customers and defeating the object of the exercise(hidden agenda?)

I thought Tesco had a maximum limit already? Or perhaps they just do not inforce it?

just wanted to join and say thanks to everyone for posting about their finds.I was after a B&D drill,B&D circular saw,breadmaker and sat nav.Managed to get the drill but nothing else.This was at w1sh@w extra.Went back today for another look but still no joy.
I did notice that there were no drills,but on the top shelf were sealed brown cardboard boxes for the 12v and 14v.
Has anyone tried L@n@rk or C@rluke for any of the electrical deals?

I think chance of a bargain now is slim. My store resembled a jumble sale. People were eagerly scanning items on the price checker to see what's what (and dumping high price items there) and stood there salivating waiting for stock to come out of the warehouse doors. I gave up and came home, lol. I know if there's anything decent there'll be 20 people with a sense of entitlement in front of me buying 50 for ebay.

I agree it was awful and some people are so funny fighting over things..Is it ever worth that? Sorry you didn't get anything, maybe next time.
