    My gawd, I just phoned customer services, think I must have got through on the "thick plank's training day", I could have got more sense from my 6 year old. If that's the kind of gormless gimp that represents Tesco's then heaven help us! I had to tell him the best stores to try as I couldn't quite see a BMX being sold in a 15ft Tesco Metro Petrol Station store! Anyway, he can't find any anywhere (cough, cough) so good luck to anyone who does and pray you don't get hold of who I did if you ring and well done to the op for getting one, it's a cracking deal!

  • I just phoned my local store in Telford. I gave her the barcode and she said "Hold on While I check for you" then I heard her say to someone "have you seen this price" then all went silent for about 2 minutes. She come back on line and said Sorry we dont stock that make of BMX bike. Yea right.....

    TBh i didn't want to alert thenm to the price so i didn't ask,. i phoned the store & gave the bar code, they aid 4 in store. I asked if they were outside the entrance (normal place) & he said he wasn't sure, but if i went to CS they would loacte for me.

    If your thinking of getting one this afternoon, don't suppose you fancy picking up 2 as i can't get to the store today? I'll happily pay you for doing it>

    I tried a second time and got someone more helpful, still to no avail, but if anyone is looking in the following areas: Trowbridge, Salisbury and surrounding, Amesbury, Yeovil, Weymouth, Tidworth, Poole, Bournemouth.....they don't have any!
