    Not so much in my sainsburys, just wasabi mayo, weight watchers jam and picalilli. Scanned a few other things but all came up as full price. :(

    Where are the scanners in Sainsbury's?
    There is always a big queue for our self scan tills.

    Sounds great - are they labelled as full price on the shelf or at 20p does anyone know?

    The stuff was all labelled at 20p on the shelf. With a red SEL saying sale 20p.

    Sainsbury's Sunderland South

    Slimline battery bathroom scales with 70% off they are now £7.50 thought it might be of interest for anyone starting the new year diet, in my case this will be 3rd year.
    Don't know if this is local or store wide

    Use your Nectra card to access the Fasttrack self-scanners. Works for me ;)

    I wouldn't ordinarily buy it, but at 20p might be worth a try!

    I have just come back from my Sainsbury's a happy bunny. For once I actually got a bargain.

    Kettle chips, Smoky Barbecue flavour, 150g bag (full size) ticket on shelf said 25p!!
    Yes they went through till at 25p a bag :j:j:j:j

    Normally £1.80 a bag.
    expiry date March 2014.

    So grab them quick, I managed 8 bags for £2 and left some for others, as I know what its like to see something and then miss out.

    I have eaten nearly 2 bags too yum. :rotfl::rotfl:

    Just going try and leave some for Xmas or take to friends house for get together, good best before date so wont look cheapskate either!:cool:
