Tesco misprice on Frootz :)

Hi All

Just been into Tesco in Oakham and queried the price of Frootz blackcurrant high fruit buttons (if you got kids, they'll love them!). They are supposed to be £2.09 for a multipack of 5. But they are currently shelf-edged at 3 packs for £1 !!! That's a saving of £5.27!!!! I expected to have to argue the toss at the checkout, but they rang through at the offer price. I'd say grab this deal quick before they realise, cos it is definitely a mistake....that's the deal for the individual packets, not the multipack.

    Darn it, picked these up and put them back today as thought the glitch on them had ended due to there being loads on the shelf as apposed to none for the last couple of weeks!

    don't think this is a misprice, they have just gone back on offer as they had yellow SEL for these in my store yesterday orange and strawberry were £2.09 (& 2 or 3 for £3.50 i think) and blackcurrent ones were 3 for £1

    The £1 offer for the boxes has been running for a few weeks now. I've just got some more, this time they went through full price and then in the offer bit on your receipt it takes £5 something off. So don't worry if the SEL says £2.09 still.

    BLACKCURRANT ONLY

    I got blackcurrant and straberry last time, the kids LOVE them and go for the frootz over normal sweets every time.
