I asked two genuine questions and gave one bit of gentle advice - in return for which I got several rude, arrogant responses (of which yours is one) - as I take it from that the majority of users of this thread (and I am a regular reader, and always thank when I find something useful - on the Tesco threads) seem to be like this, why on earth would that encourage me to join in?! :rotfl: I wonder if the real reason for the store names being obscured might be more to do with not wanting other money-savers to dare to trespass on "your patch"? (Don't bother by the way, it's rhetorical - the defensive nature of the responses makes the answer quite clear!)



Thank you - nice to have one personal prepared to behave decently and give a straight answer to a straight question. Still interested to know why everything can't go on one thread though? This one is rather "hidden away" being with the expired stuff.



Try checking out the legal definitions of fraud. The word "intent" also has bearing here - you are going out with intent to gain from Tesco's mis-pricing. The active searching out of the deals could potentially be an issue. My comment was posted as genuine, well meaning advice as nobody else seems to have thought of this yet although the free wi-fi has been mentioned. Considering how (rightly) cynical the majority of posters on here are with regards to Tesco's motives and policies, do you REALLY think they have provided the free wi-fi connection out of the goodness of their hearts, with absolutely nothing to gain from it and no thoughts of how it can be used to their benefit?!

If I was working for Tesco's legal team, this thread would be extremely interesting, obscured store names or not.....

Thanks to those who were prepared to give pleasant responses - your input is appreciated.

Intent to do what exactly? Tesco out of the goodness of their hearts (as you might phrase it) offer DTD if they price something wrong. Whether you deliberately seek out these misprices or pick up the item by accident is not important. No law has been broken and you have not sought to deceive. Tesco's legal team can rattle their cans in the wind till the cows come home but such a case would be a non starter.

I don't hide the names of my stores in posts and think its a pointless exercise as Tesco will without doubt have someone who scans the relevant threads on MSE anyway, but its up to others what they want to do. If I wanted to keep people off 'my patch' then I simply wouldn't put the store locations in my posts at all.

Have you any other objections which we can shoot down in flames? :rotfl::rotfl:

I am both intrigued and fascinated by this thread (I can't really absorb it all, lol). A couple of questions (if someone would be so kind as to clarify for me - or point me in right direction), the 'wi-fi' mentioned in above quote - what's it referring to? Also, how are these glitches, incorrect prices, discovered in the first place?...oh, and I haven't noticed my local branch of Te$c0 (see, I am learning, lol) mentioned - so I'm thinking unknown territory, lol.

Thanks all.

If you go to many tesco's now, your laptop or phone will find tescos wifi and will allow you to connect. If you supply your clubcard and postcode it will save your login details, or you can select a trial and have just 15 mins free.

Glitches and incorrect prices are generally found by accident although a little bit of fuzzy tesco logic applied here and there can throw up the odd undiscovered bargain too!

Care to name your unknown territory as my car has a tank of fuel that needs burning!

Still had no confirmation of this working in the Extra's?

Wouldn't mind stocking up on these bits.

Scanned so many of these different items today in my normal size store, and every single one, scanned at full price

It wasnt that I couldnt be bothered, I think you will find that I am quite a helpful poster in general. It just gets a little bit tedious when people post on here about the other board, of course we are aware it's there. We were moved here by a mod as some people complained about too much chat on the thread, now you are complaining that new deals are being posted on here and that it's too much effort to read all 3 threads. We cannot win on here, we either talk too much or shouldnt be posting deals here, can you understand our frustration??

Your comment about hiding store names and it being because posters didnt want anyone else on there patch is absolute twaddle!!! and actually offensive, this is a caring,sharing,thread:T It's a well known fact on most threads and on these boards that the store name is slightly changed so as T's find it harder to identify it.

You're not related to ARTHA by any chance are you;)

Artha is okay now he's been trained

Hi everybody
Sorry for being a total wimp yesterday
Am feeling much better today
Can I ask a quickie? Are there any glitches today, with my mum at the hospital but not sure if she's up to going to T's unless there's something really exciting glitching?

Will catch up properly with you guys later xxx
