Tesco Real Food £5 Offer - Chicken & Leek Pot Pies

sirbrainy

Everything except the mustard is hopelessly over-priced.

I would estimate the real 'normal' price of those items should be about £6 if you bought it all at Asda :mad:

For example, why is the chicken breast priced @ £11.59/kg? Same thing from Tesco £7.40 a kilo http://www.tesco.com/groceries/Product/Details/?id=259601399

have to agree with you on this sirbrainy.

this deal is not as good as their last £5 real food deal.

i just did a couple of minutes of searching....this is what i would get:

chicken: http://www.tesco.com/groceries/Product/Details/?id=252465357
leeks: http://www.tesco.com/groceries/Product/Details/?id=268474258
cream: http://www.tesco.com/groceries/Product/Details/?id=268726514
pastry: http://www.tesco.com/groceries/Product/Details/?id=254916553
mustard: http://www.tesco.com/groceries/Product/Details/?id=260691779

you could make the stock from the chicken you boil off. ok it costs an extra quid or two but you'd get far more for your money!

Nice work

Or you could just buy a pack of the 6p chicken stock cubes and add some water.

I clicked on the mustard "buy all these ingredients" and it said on mine till 02.10.11. Won't go through for me !

Last weeks was Pork with mustard which was probably why it had the date on it but should work today hopefully

Was in Tesco earlier and the deal isn't as good as last weeks. Only 2 small chicken breasts, individual price £2.50. I already have the mustard from last week, and home made pastry is easy (plus I am wheat intolerant, so couldn't use the pastry in the deal).
