Tesco Clearance TV - not available?? Can I do anything pls?

Hi, I'm not sure where to post this (I've searched the forums!), but....

On Tesco Direct's Clearance site they are advertising a Goodmans 14" DVD Combi TV along with a list of stores that stock it.

I have telephoned 5 stores (so far) and visited 1 who all claim that they either don't stock Goodmans or the deal doesn't exist.

I have also contacted Head Office who gave me some blurb about the internet offers not always being accurate/up to date.

Feeling very annoyed now that they can openly advertise a product/offer that does not exist. Is there anything I can do about it, or can they just get away with false advertising?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Penny

    Unfortunately (or fortunately for Tesco), they use the magic words 'while stocks last'. So they could have had just one available somewhere and be completely above board.

    IMO you are already doing the best thing - telling other people about it.
