Yes, as long as the sun rises on the particular day in question.
Pepperami also on Buy 1 Get 2 Free. Also some sort of frankfurters in the fridges.0 -
I really don't rate the pizzas unfortunately
- maybe they need something added to them. 0 -
In regards to when the price changes, if you look at the yellow price lable, in small (tiny!) numbers below the actual price (same side) you get a start and an end date. It looks a bit cryptic at first but if you spend long enough looking at labels like these, you get the hang of it! Many of the current offers seem to expire 6/12/11 but there are those that don't so keep an eye out.0

The Big Red Dog frankfurters are not such a good deal as they make out. They're £1 each pretty much all year round, except they've now put them up to £2 for the few weeks before the BOG2F.0 -
I bought Muller Light yoghurts last week 12 for £3 and now they're 4 for £2. Just goes to support Issyc's comments!0

With all of these things, and i mean every single bargain you've ever seen, Try to completely forget about the bargain they are trying to tell you you're buying and instead think about the bargain you are actually buying.
e.g. Forget about B2G1F and forget about what they said it was being sold at, and think about whether the product you're buying right now is worth the price they are charging right now.
It helps to keep a sanity check on the frankly fraudulent practice of artificially inflating prices just before the 'sale'.0 -
At the moment, in store and on line, you can buy Heins Beans & Sausages - 99p for 1 can or £4 for 3 cans! Maybe we should start a new thread - Buy 3 Pay for 4 and a bit!0

Well said, there was a show on TV last night about supermarkets duping customers by inflating prices before they go on offer. They were talking about how Tesco inflated their prices in the two weeks before the "big price drop". Apparently the big four have already been in trouble with OFT about this.With all of these things, and i mean every single bargain you've ever seen, Try to completely forget about the bargain they are trying to tell you you're buying and instead think about the bargain you are actually buying.
