Anyone else come across this?
I just had a wee search for that and get this message

You might do even better than that - it's well worth a try.
IF I remember correctly - was it the famous tins of tomatoes that this happened on? - when we were paid to take them away as they scanned at a lower price but then they did the BOGOF at full price?
Well worth a punt as the most you'll pay will be £1 but it could also mean £1.39 off your shop too.
Wasn't the tins on reflection - it was the cartons - OMG they were good!0 -

For my landline I always use Say No To 0870 it's brilliant and nearly always finds an alternative 0800 or geographical number.:j Also works with 0845 etc.
Don't know about mobiles though as only have a p a y g for emergencies.Sounds interesting
http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/08-wizard-99p-google-play-convert-08-numbers-into-landline-numbers-save-yourself-1494781
supposedly converts 08 numbers into landline ones.
Anyone got anything better that they use because at 99p this should be worth it.Yes I can save you the 99p David - 0800Buster... you dial 01249200800 then enter the freephone number at the prompt...works fine!
It was mentioned on here before so thanks to OP it's been really useful!
:beer:
WeQ4U is free and does 08 numbers and sits in the queue for you so you don't waste your minutes. Saved me a fortune lately.:hello: The grass is not greener, it just looks that way from a distance :hello:0 -

I cannot see these on the multi-buys on the T site. However there are three varieties available.
http://www.tesco.com/groceries/Product/Search/Default.aspx?searchBox=Mcvities+Breakfast&newSort=true&search.x=0&search.y=0
Oddly, these are priced at £2.39 on myS.

This is what I see on MYS:
McVitie's Breakfast Porridge Oats Biscuits Apple, Sultana & Cinnamon (300g)
Asda £2.29
Waitrose £2.29
Sainsburys £2.29
Ocado £2.29
Tesco £2.39 £2.39 Valid until: 19/03
The Tesco price is weird - the crossed out price of £2.39 implies a reduction/offer, but the blue price is exactly the same !
I'm confused0 -
Evening all. Picked up the M and S slippers and DM absolutely loves them. Lovely pattern on them too.
Hope you have all had a good day. Too tired to read through all the pages. Bed time soon. Sleep well all.0 -
Tesco is messing with their website trying to fix this by the looks of it. It says better than half price BUT also £2.39 HOWEVER if you click on the better than half price it says £1. It's also in the BOGOF offers.
They didn't fix the tomato glitch quickly:D - I got nearly 100 of those - very nice they were too!
