Just wondering, what would happen if you used your clubcard vouchers to double up? How do they give you the DTD?

Now it's illegal to write down prices in a Tesco supermarket :eek:


I am nearly arrested for the 'crime' of doing a price check on some bottles of water


I was almost arrested in Tesco this week. My crime? Comparing prices. Evidently, this is such a security issue for Tesco that it wants you booted out of the store. The deputy manager rushed up to me within minutes of my arriving at one of its London supermarkets. The security cameras had spotted me with a pen and paper in hand, noting the prices of goods on the shelves. "Excuse me, what are you doing?" he said. I told him I was, well, writing down prices.


"You're not allowed to do that. It's illegal. Where are you from? Are you from the media?" I don't feel Tesco has any right to demand my employment status, so I just said: "I'm a private individual, I'm buying some stuff here, and I'm comparing prices."


It obviously didn't satisfy him. "It's illegal to write things down and you can't take any photographs, either. If you want to check the prices, take the item to the till and pay for it there. The price will be on the receipt," he said, pointing me to the exit.

New stock of the Lindam bed rail in Middleton today. Still scanning at 60p. I got the last blue one but think there were 3 pink ones left.

Oh and baby grobag, petal pattern 1 tog down to £5.75 instead of £23. Too girly for my little boy but hope someone grabs them. This was Middleton too.
