Tesco Discussion Chat & Grabbits 11+ Xmas/New Year Edition

nikkilala_2

New overflow thread from 11+

This is yet another Tesco bargain/glitch/DTD/misprice thread
we know it's in the 'Gone but not forgotten' section
we know there are at least 2 other threads in which we could post
Yes, we do talk a lot
No, not all of what we say is Tesco related or even of interest to many others but this is the way this thread has formed

Many of us want to discuss the various deals to be had but this was not appreciated on the main Grabbit forum. As such, we now use this thread to talk about anything from how to cook a baked potato to how to get 1p or 4p items through self-scan as quick as possible. We also discuss ex-husbands, kids and animals. If you have a medical problem we'll nag you until you go to the doctor. If you're not feeling well we'll provide support, a wee hot drink and whatever chocolate is currently glitching to cheer you up.

And finally, yes we know that some people try to obscure the store names but this works both ways. It might make it difficult for those who don't have the time to sit here and natter all day but it also makes it difficult for staff/managers to quickly identify any issues at their store. We do try to post new deals in bold but it depends on the poster if they remember. We don't like arguing so we're not going to take umbridge if one or two deals slip through.

Now sit back, relax and feel free to join in. We don't bite (unless you ask nicely), we will help wherever possible and you don't have to post new deals just to feel like part of the group.

Please put all your finds in bold with LAST 4 DIGITS OF barcode or photo if possible so we can chat & still speed read for bargains

Both found in the tools aisle in those yellow boxes.

Thanks, I'll start practising my jumps! My OH won't do it either - thinks it's a load of carp, so it's my job. Not looking forward to it. As you've said, it's so time consuming. One RA I was doing, I had the audacity to call rubbish, rubbish! Got rejected, rubbish is debris!:rotfl::rotfl:Was advised years ago when doing these statements - pretend a 4 year old is reading it (would a 4 yo know debris?) and write it so that they could understand it! Thought that was a bit of an insult to the 'mainly' male domination of the trade.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
