I seem to be having trouble todday. I have this critter but struggling to find a youtube tutoorial on how to kill it (I'd rather not pop it in boiling water alive although I can imagine this would be a very quick death anyway) and prepare it etc as I fancy it for my tea!!

Pop it in the freezer first for an hour to sedate it, then put it in boiling water. It's supposed to be humane way of doing it.

did you really catch that??! It's gigantic!! Don't you treat them like lobster and put in a pan of boiling water? You can freeze lobster first to stun them (I've never done of the above btw)

I experienced this too

I bought 4 packets of Chinese Chicken Thighs a littler while ago. The white SEL said £3.50 each, but red B1G1F stickers were still on some of the packs, most had been torn off by CS though or else i would have picked up more

When it went through the till it went through as £14, less £7 multisaver. Thats the B1G1F part of it back on now I guess BUT it also showed a second discount of £2.50 with description "Meat 2For £6, 3 for £8"

So if I had bought 3 @ £3.50 that would have been £10.50 full price with £2.50 coming off to bring it down to £8. There was no signage to mention this deal at all

So I got four packs worth £14 less £7 B1G1F, less £2.50 discount for buying 3 packs = total of £4.50 which is ALMOST B1G3F ;-)

It's good but not as good as the first store I went to. In that store I bought 2 packs of Sweet Chilli Chicken Thighs (it was all that was left with the red stickers on) and the B1G1F didn't kick in so they were free on DTD ;-)

The save 2 or save 3 pound deal is I the tescoprice flop brochure
