    quite happy with Mr T today too, had loads of coupons for stuff that was also on offer, so I ended up paying £32 for £80 of goods and got 200 points which can be worth £8

    Our Tesco reduces to 10p on fruit/veg and fresh flowers at night. Once got a tesco finest bouqet that was like £15 down to 50p :D

    We did once get 2 x free range chickens for £2 each.

    Well done, OP. If you need a recipe to turn the carcass into a litre of soup, let me know.

    "Rubber turkey" doesn't quite sound the same.
    If you fold it in half, will an Audi A4 fit in a Citroen C5? :)
  • Yay! Holidays are the best time for yellow stickers, more stock = more markdowns.

    Wow, looking at the prices, out tesco is well stingy! When they reduce things its usually only by 10-30%. Even bread!

    That's the first markdown - I agree they are rubbish - at least Sainsbs don't mess about like that, their first markdowns seem to be about 50%. In T's you need to go later on in the day for the second markdown.
