    Well, I was true to my word and ventured out to a Metro!

    What a waste!:mad:

    First tried looking for the £1.79 pizzas and there were NO cheese ones left, so started looking for the 3 for £5 ones and again, NO cheese ones left!:mad:

    SA just told me to look in the aisle and didn't bother to check the back.:(

    So tried with a spinach stonebaked one which came to £3.xx at the till!:(:eek: It was at SS so I got it cancelled by helpful SA.

    Now went on the search for Ben and Jerry's deal to find NO garlic breads at all, not even a SEL for it, NO Chicago town pizzas at all, not even one flavour or type. :(

    So, on the hunt for the Birds eye deal, thought I'd found all the right items, but at the till, there were no dedctions and cost £6:eek::eek::eek:
    There weren't any omega 3 fish fingers so guessing that was the wrong item.:(

    Thought might as well go ahead with it as I had 3 value pizzas, first coupon went through OK at SS, 2nd and 3rd needed approval and helpful SA turned into trout after authorising both getting the total to £3.xx and then unauthorising it, after checking coupons:mad:

    :(

    Third time lucky I hoped, so got 1 value pizza, 1 elmea cream and some strawberry cheesecake. Took everything to manned till, SA scanned coupon and then asked another SA if this was O.K to use, :mad: she said no and she took the coupon off the total!:mad::(

    Came home with 1 Elmea cream!:(

    And to top it off, I got there at 7:40 and whoopsies were minimal and rubbish!:(

    And before I forget, to trump that too, I saw someone walking back whilst I was walking to Tesco with a T's bag of £1.79 pizzas!:(:o

    Hope you all had better Tesco days!:o

    Sorry to hear about your shop Jtz
    What a rubbish T store
    Do you have any larger stores nearby that you can try tomorrow

    I've had them a few times in whoopsies. Usual one is ripped ham for making an ommelette etc. Its just bits of ripped ham rebranded though......tesco reinventing the wheel to make a few more quid as usual.

    i agree with you. i can get better bacon etc at work. the lump of ham was 4.00.:eek: only want some free one's. 50p for 50g. What load of :mad::mad::mad::mad:

    t's are are raking it in. I know the cost of bacon wholesale.

    They have the 2 for £3 banner showing the make a meal items and the ham etc but they don't stock the M-A-M items

    I didn't bother with the ham there was about 4 small pieces, how they can possibly charge the amount they do for them and people buy it :eek::eek:

    Even at 3 for 2 and using the coupon I thought they were expensive, at free I might just about manage to take them away though:D

    Have you looked in the frankfurter/salami section, thats where they were in my T's
    If it wasn't for blinds it'd be curtains for all of us:dance:
