Tesco Party Food Glitch (even better if you can find xmas food yellow stickers)

Mike_J

A big (BLUE) supermarket chain has a range of xmas food currently selling at £3 each but £5 for 2 and £8 for 4.

If you can find any of these in the reduced quick sale shelves grab them in pairs as the savings discount still comes off. Note though, buy them with other shopping so that it isnt so obvious.

Last night I purchased 8 items for 60p each (80%off as shortdated but can be frozen!).
Price 8 x 60p = £4.80
Discount
(£16 for eight instead of 8 x £3) - £8.00

Balance knocked off the rest of my shopping £3.20

Lol no need to be so cryptic, becoming a running theme
in the TESCO threads, there you go I said it, if I say it 3 times
will the TESCO man come to get me like in the candyman
films? Is that why TESCO names are written in code, so the
TESCO man doesn't know where to find people?

Drats now I've gone and done it, I hope the TESCO man does
come to get me, he can bring my bloody shopping at the same
time.

Hi! I am also from M*ld and very excited to see another MSEr from there! (I have actually just moved up to the Manchester area and my local Tesco reduces ALL short-dated food to 80% off at night. M*ld has always been a bit useless - Br0*ght*n is much better if you're after a bargain. Happy shopping!!

Sorry not been back in a while. I bought the sage and onion chicken chunks, bacon and cheese lattices, sausage rolls. Thanks to squigs for the link. As for mega reduced prices its really a case of get to know your store. My local one..............no point going before 8pm, by 9pm its all gone (although they sometimes do it earlier in the first few weeks of having "new seasonal stocks" as they dont seem to have the buying quantities quite right at that stage)
