Just back from Tesco Extra Kn*cknag*ney (a Northern Ireland store) and on checking my receipt found two new glitches that I don't see have been mentioned on here!
1. WALKERS SENSATIONS (standard size) are £1.74 each but on offer 2 for £2 - I only bought two bags but the discount of £1.48 came off twice. I went back in again and bought two more just to check (different flavours from the first time) and the discount came off twice again! What made it better was I already had two of the "free bag" vouchers from Facebook!
2. DURACELL Ultra Power AA batteries 4PK (bar code ending 002562) - these are £4.47 each but buy one get one free. I bought 4 x 4pks and on checking my receipt, it has applied two separate discounts - one for buy one get one free, and a second for buy one get the cheapest free - in total, 4 x 4pks of batteries cost me £4.47. Went back in again to check if it worked on mixing AA and AAA but this does not work - I put through a second lot of 4 x 4pk AA and it worked out again at a total of £4.47.
Just to confirm:
Walkers Sensations = discount applied twice when buying 2 packs
Duracell Ultra Power AA 4pks = 2 discounts applied when buying 4pks of the AA batteries only

Probably not.....2 go through @£1-74 each then discount 2@£1-48 so 2 packs cost 26p each.
Just read later post and it seems a profit is possible!Political?....I dont do Political....well,not much!0 -
