    it's not a glitch, its a reduction.

    A glitch is when the computer/tills make an error and give a discount twice or more off than it should. This is usually unknown to Tesco (until they cotton on!)

    A reduction is when the item is knowingly reduced by Tesco as in this case, they were full price, then 59p now 25p - gradual reductions to clear stocks, they do it all the time.

    I do wish people would understand the difference between these two things <sigh>


    Bad day?


    I would call it a glitch SEL says £1 but scans at 25p to me thats a glitch
    If you dont like me remember its mind over matter, I dont mind and you dont matter ;)

    Glitch or bargain or whatever, thanks for posting this OP. Managed to get 6 x Tomato and Mozzarella. Was so excited that I finally got one of these bargains that in my haste, forgot to pay for the Bag For Life. Security guard chased after me and I almost died. Explained that I had forgotten to pay for the Bag For Life so gave him the money for it and he said it was fine. Bloody hell. LOL. Thanks again OP.

    don't think it's going to be in every store as I just bought some of these tonight (about 7pm) and they scanned at £1 as expected, no BOGOF either.
