What was the SEL for the sweetners? Could do with stocking up on these. thanks

I think you need to be careful to get the sweeteners on clip strips, not the ones on the shelves. They are packs of 100 Splenda Sweet Minis with a barcode ending 2827.
Good luck.

Well I've got bk.. No sweetners but thankyou for info. I've been an idiot today.. my store has a sale on selected childrens clothes, i founf some purple fur baby snow suits. The younger ages 3-6 months were labeled as £4. The older ones didnt have a reduced sticker on but were on the same hanger as the rest. Anyway it scanned through at 14 pounds, the SA could see i wasnt impressed as she was watching me as i was the only customer on SS. i told her it was supposed to be reduced, she said if its not marked its not reduced. so i STUPIDLY gave it her bk. What a plum. I should of just shut up, paid.. gone to CS and argued the toss then if no joy emailed head office.

They have red bows on sale.. christmas stock.. 20 for 30p this is at Bedw0r7h store.
I tried the andrex pockets all 3 colours were full price. The TY squirel was full price and i also tried car freshner the yellow tree.. full price and hersheys kisses full price. Didnt bother with thorntons as neither of the two self scans are working. So ANNOYING. Not happy today now lol HTH :mad::rotfl:

Strange one this, bear with me, lol.

Went into Mr T's in M1ddleton this morning and bought a few groceries and DVDs. One of the DVDs was Diary of a Wimpy Kid 2. It was priced at 9.00 and I was charged 14.97 so went to the CS desk. Went with the woman to the SEL to show her and she said it was strange as the barcode was different from the DVD and said she would have to speak to the manager. She came back to the desk and told me she could refund me the 14.97 and I could rebuy it at 9.00!!

I told her I expected DTD as I had been overcharged and she said it wasn't there fault as the barcodes were different meaning 'that someone must have brought this DVD in and put it on the shelf!!!!!!!' I've never heard of anything so stupid in all my life. I said who would walk in a put a 'sealed' DVD back on a shelf, with no refund, she said 'strange things do happen!' LMAO

Anyway, I said it doesn't matter if the DVD has been returned from Timbuktoo but I am still entitles to DTD as I was overchaged. She ummed and ahhed for a bit then said, I can give you DTD this time if you want (if I want, lol) and as a gesture of goodwill. I said okay, thankyou, got my DTD and left the store.

Now I've heard of some excuses in my time, but a member of public taking a sealed DVD into Tesco and leaving it in the correct place on the shelf beats the lot, lol.

Anyway, as I've rambled ... Diary of a Wimpy Kid 2 - SEL 9.00 - charged 14.97 - DTD £11.94 - total to pay £3.03

Just got back from Mr T Towc3est3r. None of the current mis-prices available but got lucky with the timing and got some great discounts and discovered another error which may well be repeated elsewhere.

Ha ha it's well said that there's no scanner here - popped in yesterday at around 3.30 and found the 1p oust iron cleaners (whole clip strip left), loads of 1p glennans veg crisps (whole clip strip left), 50p disney parachute toys (4 left), spontex scourers (sorry took the last ones) and green tea (sorry took last ones)
Happy hunting to all the locals toorrow :beer:

Hi,

Just back in from Mr T's and had a small glitch to report. They're currently doing travel toiletries at 5 for £4 (normal price £1.25) but when rang through the till they came up at full price total of £6.25.

So got double the difference back of £4.50 making it 5 toiletries for £1.75.

They were changing the labels so I'm guessing it won't last long.

There was a buzz, a mickey mouse and a tinkerbell. They were on clip strips in the last aisle - some near the orange juice and the others near the alcohol. Hope you find them
