Hope some of you fellow MSE'ers in NI ( and of course across the water ) managed to get some.

Caz I bought these and didn't necessarily need them, so if you fancy anything you can pm me !

Awww thanks hon. I'll be stopping by the store you didn't hit tomorrow so if I'm not lucky there I'll drop you a pm.

Which Duplo is it please? I'm pretty sure I've seen 5946 (Tigger, Piglet, boat & bridge) in one of the Belshaft stores and it was whoopsied to £4.25 so may call in quickly to have a look.

I've got that one too but its much better - it was £1.40 tho in the big sale !
This is the small set, just pooh and a honey jar and few extra pieces, pretty crap if im honest but for 38p it'll spice up a few pressies or do for party bags !

someone posted the otherday about getting let down by delivery service.

found this

That was me Frequent. I read the above just after I'd had an email from Next saying they were very sorry and offered to refund the delivery charge of £3.99
I phoned and said that wasn't good enough, and they offered to deduct another £5 for the inconvenience of being told porkies!
Not much but better than nothing I suppose.
Not heard anything back from Tesco's about me driving 30 miles to pick up my Direct order only to find it wasn't there. And for refusing to accept their own coupons. I had an email acknowledgement on Monday saying someone would be in touch personally but I've heard nothing since

Every supermarket is 'breaking the law' if such is the case. When items are whoopsied new barcoded stickers are placed on top of existing barcodes. They are not equipped with marker pens to score out a sticker first.
Not entirely sure what law they are breaking by doing so.

Even if this was an illegal act taking place every evening by every store, I'm sure others would agree, it cannot be used by a minority to justify retail theft.

When i worked in retail you could mark down by putting a sticker over but to mark up you should remove old price & reprice - but with barcodes I don't know.......

i agree with what you are saying Hun.. and i would say i am an honest person too - if i was ever faced with any of the situations mentioned in your post - i would do the same... and i recon so would many others on here too.....

I am not dishonest, but I am not always completely honest when it comes to shopping, obviously I don't shoplift but I have kept quiet when being over-refunded, I've noticed lots of people on here saying they've been given more DTD that they were entitled to and how many have spoken up? I'd be interested to know.....

I think selective honesty is more common than complete and total honesty i.e. I might not speak up if given too much money from the till but someone recently left a fiver change in a self-service till and I handed it in without hesitation because that money belongs to a person not a large corporation.
