    Tesco ready to eat BBQ chicken drumsticks.

    Went through the till at £4 but there was a round red £2 sticker on the product.

    Free lunch. Cheers.

    This worked for me last night (29th). Sadly only one pack left. Sticker on pack said £2 and SEL said £2 too but small print on SEL said offer expired on 26/6. Charged £4. Got DTD no problem.
    Also there's only 4 medium pieces in a pack, so £1 a drumstuck ? I don't think so. Even 50p each is too much - but free is OK
    Still virtually alcohol free since 4/1/15. (10 Xmas/ New Year/Birthday drinks)
    It takes 3500 calories to lose a pound in weight. Target 13 lbs weight loss. 18.5lbs lost 2nd May - 28 September.

    You should of insisted that you get the cream. The item states free cream regardless of them being reduced..


    There's actually an a4 sign in my local T's saying that if there is a yellow reduction sticker on the strawberries then the free cream offer doesn't apply :(

    Tescos Banana Milk and Chocolate milk (same as these)

    http://www.tesco.com/groceries/Product/Details/?id=259281436

    are £1.22 each in store.

    Written on the actual cartons is 2 for £2, but not coming off at the till.

    2 x milkshake = £2.44

    Overcharge of 44p, so DTD of 88p

    So 2 milkshakes for a total of £1.56 :D

    Only works on the cartons that have 2 for £2 printed on (where the red band is at the top of the bottle on the link)

    HTH

    kick energy drink . stopped workin 0000 gmt buy 2 get 1 free . =buy 1 get 2 free with dtd :) 85 cent per can .
    i know i am in republic of ireland but hope this helps someone . i got 3 cans of kick for 85 cent = 75 pence maybe a guess
    and 4 monster energy drinks for 75 cent each = 68 pence at a guess

    I can't see that many that have changed price, that would have offered a decent return :(

    Have been reading with great interest about double the difference and scanning aisles just to see a mix up. Planned to go this morning knowing it was change over day......

    Ok its not great I shall admit but saw 4 tubes of smarties down to £1 end date was yesterday full price £1.74.... saw an opportunity grabbed 5 packs incase! Sis grabbed 4. Get to till sure enough go through £1.74. head to CS who check the aisle and say no it says full price! I got quite angry at this knowing it said £1.00! 10 mins later she comes back after speaking to 4 ladies changing labels and apologises after i demanded to see the store manager! she had looked in the wrong place and it did say £1. (also stocked on same aisle all the rocky choccy bars down to £80p or so half price end date yesterday picked up 5 but they scanned at half price! :o)

    Double the difference back didn't even need to remind them about it, got £1.48 back cash per pack so paid £1.30 or so for 20 tubes of smarties walking out with £7 or so!

    Only wish it was something bigger and better but still for my first try im pleased!! So is my 2 year old! :j
