    Did it go through at £2 though? Does it matter what it says on the pack or do all packs go though at £2 and BOGOF?
  • Our packets say £4 , but on the SEL it was £2 and BOGOF not sure if all stores will have the same.

    For me they went through the till at £2 each (even though the packs say £4). When the promotions are taken off it then took off the BOGOF amount. Leaving 2 packs for £2 in total. Would have taken more.....if only there were more on the shelf. Will look again another time.

    It is very good quality mince and low in fat too - no nasty puddles of grease on your plate. There's not much water in the pan either, when frying it.
    I often use it for cottage pie, or to make meat loaf or burgers.

    Neither of my two local tescos even sell finest minced pork! All I could see was organic and the standard mince

    There is no SEL with any offer on. I used the self scan handheld thingy and on the pack it said £4.00, when I pressed it it said 'this is on offer' it then came up £2.00 and a BOGOF

    I bought 12 pks at £12.00:j:j
    Capital one was £1000.00 now £0.00:j
    Barclaycard was £250.00 now £190. 00
    Asda credit card was £500.00 now £0.00:j
