I'm at work all day but woul love if someone who might have a bit of time to find the op by kandafsmam and place a link to it do we can all press the thanks button- if a new thread on the grabbit board had been started I am sure the OP would have had hundred of thanks
....

I thought the same but work keeps stopping me from posting. Have been trying to post this since 7.15!


It's not just kandafs mam we need to thank for this. In order of posting.....
Polgster first posted about the glitch on Tesco 12 (14/12 3.03pm Clicky)

Took advantage of the dd on the 3 for 2 a while ago so noticed they had 3 for 2 again yesterday evening so took pot luck and didnt need dd as they discounted to £1.20 giving me a saving of £8.94 :j

Discount came up as 'Cadbury 3 > £1.20' which was a bit strange but it worked 3 times over. Nine dinner kits was enough for me

This was at lpool 0ld sw4n but may work elsewhere

And then micabenson and kandfs mam were discussing a mysterious "cadbury 3 > 1.20" discount (14/12 9.15pm) with no idea it was OEP.

Then the breakthrough came at 9.52pm when bargainhuntergill declared (Clicky)

Hi,

Wendyak and others - OEP didn't work in Sou#hend or May#flower, didn't try pi#sea though as everywhere was soooooo busy

Very jealous of people's pictures although I have 3 packs of wraps and 3 jars salsa that didn't glitch

Is there a chance it could work today in stores that it didn't yesterday then?

P.S it's snowing in Essex, but as it's wet, it's not settling

Morning all, can anybody tell me if there's a certain amount I have to buy to get the oep glitch? I know that it has to be 3 but can I buy say 18 things in one go or does it have to be less? TIA
I can only get to Ts tomorrow so hope it's still working

Yesterday I got 6 in one shop and 9 in another, both worked fine. My second bill went from £15.99 to £2.99, and that included a whoopsied rack of lamb and 2 more bags of garlic prawns

Hello everyone!

This is my first post on an internet forum EVER! :eek: I've actually been "lurking" on this forum since the good old days of R&R when I was reading daily stories of free XBoxes, DVDs, phones, computers and of course food (I can hardly believe it's been 5 years since R&R ended!) but i've always been so scared about posting because in real life I am terribly antisocial and I get so nervous and worried around people I don't know (it's stupid I know) but I thought after 5 years of lurking it was about time I said hi! So "HELLO!" - please don't hurt me!! :A

I don't want to say exactly where i'm from (still too nervous!) but I will say that it's somewhere very rural up north! And as a result of where I live, I don't have any Tesco's near me! The only supermarket for 20 miles is a small Co-Op and an even smaller Costcutter, so to get to Tesco means a 40 mile round trip on slooooow country roads, and it's only a tiny store too. I couldn't bring myself to drive there today to check out the Old El Paso glitch just in case it didn't work in my store and ended up being a total waste of time and petrol. I would love to live somewhere surrounded by Tescos (how sad does that sound?!) so that I could go hopping from store to store filling my boots with bargains like all of you! That would be so fun! But I do love living in the countryside regardless. So I very rarely get to take part in any of the amazing glitches or offers I read about on here. The last glitch I managed to take advantage of was the small boxes of Roses for 1p nearly a year ago! That was fab! I do get a bit jealous of your huge hoards (OK, very jealous seeing all your photos!) but it's OK because I have such a laugh reading all about what you're up to and how many goodies you've managed to grab! I have spent many an evening killing myself laughing at all the pictures and the stories of bargains and whoopsies and trouting and the newly founded "Strip Club" - genius! :rotfl:

So anyway I just wanted to say hi and thank you all so much for posting because even though it's difficult for me to take part, I still really appreciate everyone's posts and they really make me smile! :T

Love Ellie x

Hi Ellie,

Thanks for saying hi, I'm glad that your joining us. I'm incredibley antisocial in 'Real Life' too, I don't think its stupid to feel nervous, some forums are filled with horrid people that don't think before they type, but not this one, I hope that you'll feel safe here, and even if you don't get the bargins, I hope you pop up again to say hi! x

Right, I still haven't caught up, sorry for the multiple posts!

A massive thanks to OP re the OEP glitch. Got £26.63p's worth for 35p! Just wish the packaging wasn't so bright yellow though! :rotfl:
Glitch worked in @ld Sw@n
Went to another local Ts and my friend and I were the only ones around when an sa was reducing the fresh meat to 90% , so we managed to get loads of fresh chicken, steaks, lamb chops, lamb joints etc for pennies. Might be tempted to go back same time tomorrow!

:j:jWell done, glad 0ld [EMAIL="Sw@n"]Sw@n[/EMAIL] worked for you :j:j
