Spotted at Sainsbury's:

Sharpie Fine Permanent Marker Pens - 12 pk assorted colours
Special offer - Was £9.99 now £4.99

Available in store or with your online grocery order.

Not as good as the WHSmiths Sharpie deal a few months back but still a great price for these pens.

    Wow that's an amazing price, thank you! I'll keep an eye out but my local Tesco's stores never seem to have the clearance bargains I see mentioned here unfortunately.

    Couldn't find the clearance ones in Tescos around here so I picked up the last set in my local Sainsbury's instead last night. £4.99 is still the cheapest I've found this set so I'm really happy with that price. WHSmiths had them at £12.99! Eek! :)

    From comments on HUKD it looks like only selected Tesco's stores have reduced these to clear (most likely those branches which don't usually stock this particular product and just brought it in for the 'Back to School' season). Apparently lots of Tesco's stores haven't marked them down and still have them at £8.

    The £2 Tesco's deal is an amaaaazing offer for anyone who can find the clearance stock. (Sadly not me!)

    I found some in Tesco's Amersham...yay! :)

    SEL said £8 but they scanned at £2. I was there just as the store was closing, so if anyone is local and wants to try in the morning, there were still a few left so worth a look. They were in a box on the shelf with all the other pens etc, so not in a separate clearance area and not labelled as clearance at all.

    Hope others manage to find some. Definitely worth checking what price they're scanning at, just in case.

    Also found today in Pembroke Dock. SEL said £6 but scanned at £2. They are with the back to school stuff on the back wall by the TVs.
