    Should take them back to the store to have the tags removed. It shouldn't matter that the reciept says 4p, as if they scan them that will be the correct price and once you've paid for the item it's already yours.
    I took a friend to t's this week to start her training and before we left we decided to use the loo. as we walked in the alarms went off, it was a tag left on her 4p handbag. Handed the bag and the receipt to the nearest checkout. The sa looked at the receipt in confusion, then scanned the bag and said '4p, that it is cheap, I just had to check it make sure' the she happily removed the tag and we went on our way :D.

    Was someone from here in BIF Extra yesterday, the clothing department girl was running round like a headless chicken looking for the rugby socks that scanned for 4p, I moved away quickly with my 4p slippers a boxers x3 :rotfl: Then at the SS till there was a man buying the cheap barbie that wouldn't scan, I know coz I got one too. SA tried everything then tried to but it through manually. Wasn't till I check my reciept this morning that I relised it didn't go though at all.:o

    Not seen the pillows anywhere else, but I'm sure they are out there, so good luck hunting! Looking forward to hearing others are finding these, just like the sabatier knives.

    Jeans have all been mens ones, in fact very few ladies items at all in this batch of Tesco reductions if you remove the tights. No idea what the labels say as I've paid no attention to them. I just had the original ones mentioned here to look for and expanded my search based on a bit of 'fuzzy FK logic' and took it from there.

    I just seem to be able to sniff things out in stores! ;)


    Well the 'fuzzy FK logic' is definately working :T I will just have to randomly scan loads of jeans over the next couple of days and see how I get on.

    I have seen the pillows (either that or they are very similar) so provided they haven't all disapeared since yesterday, I will have a look at these tomorrow and post my findings. I think they may also have been mentioned a couple of days ago on this thread, as having a star on the sel but still scanning at full price, so may have only just been reduced.

    Also got 2 sets of the sabitiers :j

    Any offence is not intentional, I'm really quite harmless :o

    The ones mentioned on here were not these ones. The ones you are thinking of are the slumberland £12 ones with a star on the SEL. These were not even on the shelf and had no label at all. The £12 ones will also be worth keeping an eye on, but a bit early yet IMO as they have only just appeared on the shelves.

    Right, bedtime. Nite anyone still here. :)

    The 4p handbag in question was a large grey leather look handbag with silver studs on it and a chain handle in addition to leather look handle (kind of together). They had a whole rack but I had already picked up 2 of these in the £1 sale, so decided to point my friend in the right direction.

    I actually managed to get 5 different hand bags in the £1 sale and 4 different ones for 4p, also found another 2 for 4p, but one was quite damaged and the other I didn't fancy, so left it for someone else. And I have now found 3 different purses for 4p. All of these bar one handbag, were actually priced at full price and on the normal racks.

    Originally I just looked for any handbag that looked out of place or there was very few of out. That's how I got my £1 ones. Then I realised when items were going down to 4p that some of the £1 ones were still on the racks, so I checked these too and :j 4p each.

    I got brown bag with tassels and clasp close
    Small beige handbag
    Grey studded bag
    Dark brown handbag with twist lock close
    Red Handbag
    Beige snakeskin duffle type bag (same as black one currently instore)
    Dark brown suede with fringe of tassels
    Large black sequined bag
    Black leather wallet purse (same as shiny and snakeskin ones instore now, but this is matt leather), priced at £5
    small fabric purses in black and green with pink flowers on them, priced at £2.50

    Sorry I am rubbish with descriptions of handbags :o but all the bags I brought have AW10 on the barcodes and I got a different one a couple of nights ago, from a store that def didn't have it before, so they are still out there.

    I will try and post some of the barcodes sometime tomorrow, but OH asleep now and he won't thank me for rustling carrier bags to get to them.

    sorry for the long post and hth:)
