:T

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!

    Probably just to see if it's nationwide or limited to certain stores etc.

    certain stores won't be for items like crisp and batteries
