    Managed to get some of the children's Halloween tights for 4p tonight, scanners in store are all now saying refer to a member of staff (or something like that lol!) which is a right pain! Also managed to get some of the Andrex which my son's though were great! Must be loads of MSE'rs in the mid kent area as its the first items of clothing I have found!

    Evening everyone. I see paranoia is rife on here tonight.

    Chill out people, we get these glitches because Tesco's are pretty much inept at pricing stuff and thats gone on for years and is unlikely to end any time soon, not to mention the fact we've all pretty much cleared the stores of 4p stuff to the point we are now wasting fuel chasing shadows. :)

    I do agree FK, I've been picking up scarves, hats, boxers,tshirts and loads of bits (I do tell all on here;)) for days and like you say the only reason it's slowing up is because we're clearing them out. It's got to the stage where I'm picking up 4p stuff because no one else is, at some of my locals and I'll just stick it on a boot sale when I do one again next summer. T's will always glitch no matter what, their will always be something to find, so I wouldnt worry too much;) Periodically paranoia does set in as FK says and people set up secret groups but to be honest if your trying to go between here and facebook it will really take up a lot of time:p
    Beware!!!! Glitching is addictive:rotfl:

    Nikki I usually have this thread and my facebook page open anyway so I'll just read stuff on here but then can go to the facebook page to discuss it, ask for photos and see if anyone nearby fancies doing a swap. If someone is after a particular item, others in that area can look out for it and do a swap. Thats how I see it working anyway. :)

    I was also trouted with the leaf trays. Tried a different store today had my list scanned the scarves, light strikes etc. no luck then whoopee 4 x 1p trays. Bought few other items tried to put them through quickly with hubby keeping look out.

    Then, after scanning 4th one, message comes up on screen SA comes over says we can't sel you them & promptly takes them away. Gutted been keeping an eye out for these in my local but never found any. Did manage to get a lindum bed guard for a friend though so not all bad.

    Thanks for the person who posted about DTD on the packs of Chicken Strips. I managed to get 2 packs. SA gave me DTD without me even asking.

    I then went back to look out for the 4p clothing everyone has been talking about.

    I managed to find the following in Kings*on:
    • GOLA boxers - Barcode 5 051273 020139
    • Mens Mr Men - Little Miss Socks (pack of 2) - Barcode 5 052320 531936
    • World Cup Loungewear Bottoms - Barcode 5 052320 793815
    • Cotton Soft Tights - Black - Barcode 5052319 114966 (AW10) the AW11 were priced on pack at £6 but the AW10 were priced up £5
    Got all the above 4p each.

    I really appreciate everyone's help in sharing what they have found. I also find some of the chat very entertaining. Thanks!:):)

    Thank you this explains everything... i've searched high and low for spotty welly socks, but I was thinking it was those grey ones with the pink spots that are common, so I've been looking for SS11 versions of those.

    Gotta love pics!
  • A couple of things I noticed grocery wise.....

    Tesco Finest Marmalade all butter biscuits 150g - in a little orange caddy, BBE Feb 12 b/c 5052319511581 42p

    Allinson seed and grain bread flour 1kg 22p? (20 something pence, mind is like a sieve right now!) also 3 for 2! I didn't pick any up so no barcode sorry. Price was on SEL, showing online for me at £1.05.

    Also picked up some more wholewheat penne and spaghetti and 2 bags of Harry's salted peanuts 24p each.
