  • was it OOS or did it not show as £8.99?

    Found a local(ish) shop with stock and it did not show at £8.99.

    we pour the fat into empty cans then add a few handfuls of bird feed open opposite end of can and use the lid to push the fat through into a bird feeder , the birds love it and cheaper than buying proper ones

    Great idea :)

    Perhaps someone could help me there was a post of how to use the 2x £5 vouchers in one transaction could some one point me in the right direction to it thanks

    There's lots of explanations from all the helpful people here, but this is the one I bookmarked
    SS tills completely risk free- follow this.
    1.Spend minimum of £25 befor multibuys- 2 £10 meal deals should do it.
    2. Scan all your items
    3. Do not press pay and finish at this stage but instead scan your two vouchers one at a time and insert in slot.
    4. It will look odd as money to pay does not drop immediately
    5 Press pay and finish and amount owing on two £10 meal deals will drop to £10

    Hi,
    Went to MrTs on the way home, no reduced items to be seen.
    Decided to get the finest hamburgers for tea.
    Strange SEL £4 each 3 for £10 or 2 for £1
    Bought two packs and went through at £7 off to CS.
    Escorted lady to location of label and she removed it and told me that's strange.
    Called dairy manager over who looked at label and told the lady to honour the 2 for £1 asked for DTD but told me it was a genuine mistake and he would honour the deal or give refund.
    Told him I would speak to HO as the excuse of a genuine mistake was odd as I would not expect an employee to deliberately put the wrong label on product.Took my £6 refund and left store.
    Contacted HO and after several attempts trying to contact store she told me she will send a £6 GC out to cover the DTD and charge it back to the store.
    By the way the burgers are lush even better as they paid me £5 to take them away:beer:
