I thought they had stopped the extra 5%? Not a single mention of it down the wine aisle in my local T's.

Only in Scotland - due to the new licencing laws there are no longer multibuy promotions here. Still do multibuy promotions accross the border though

What they do though is discount the products individually to match the multi-buy;
eg 'usual' price £1.80
Promotion;
- In rest of UK - 'buy 4 for £5.00'
In Scotland 'save 55p - £1.25 each' (which is better IMO)

Just got in from Tesco.
Littlest Pet Shop single characters, normally £1.29. Scanning at 4p. Not all animals, but most.

edit: See barcode info in my other post further down

Which characters are you aware of for 4p? No scanner in my store to check.

Thanks

We bought some at both prices. I'm not sure of specific characters, but the 4p ones have a barcode ending 451011. Ones ending in 451066 are charged at full price. Hope this helps.

hard to get hold off. Found 011 in two stores last week but wopuldn't scan so couldn't buy them. Only saw 066 today:mad:

Hi everyone,

I don't usually shop online at Tesco so I'm not sure if it's a misprice or if they're usually this price, but at the moment a box of 6 Oxo Chicken Cubes is 38p, which is almost half the price of the 75p beef cubes.

The reason why I thought it was odd is that a box of 12 chicken cubes is exactly the same price as 12 beef ones.

I'll add that to the list of items to check tomorrow at Mr T.

And welcome to the forum!!

Bought a bottle of Big Kahuna (Australian) wine yesterday - Shelf price £4 (down from £5.99), BUT scanned at £2.99 . Went back today and got four more at £2.99 each . Would have got six to get the extra 5% discount, but trying to cut back a bit ...

What colour is this please - can you give last 4 digits of barcode too pretty please?
