    in my normal tesco today in the clearance aisle there was george formans for a family of 4 £19. there was 4 in a line with the label directly underneath and no other george formans in sight

    bought one and scanned at £49.97. i had genuinely not even noticed as my 2yr old was attempting to escape from the trolley until i got to the car

    went to CS and she went and looked and the barcode was different but the label said family 4 george forman

    so i told her it was misleading as there was no other george formans in sight and it clearly say 4 family george forman so after 10 min argument about me not having 3 hours to check every single barcode of every product i buy i asked to speak to the manager.

    as i went to explain she jumped in so i said could i show him, so we went off and i showed him the others and where the label was in relation to the grills.

    he completely agreed and told the trout to give DTD

    her face was a picture :rotfl:

    so paid £49.97 and got just under £62 back

    so was paid almost £12 to take it away
    where was this? (hope its near me)

    My Meal Deal was
    Tesco Finest Rose
    Root mash
    Lemon Tarts and
    Rissotto

    They said it was the wine.

    He gave me 5.50 back - too much of a wimp to ask for DTD!!!
  • Which Rose was it then?
    £2015 in 2015 (Although actual goal is £10 a day)
