My Dog has been behaving badly as well. He has decided he's too good to go into the wet garden for the toilet and has been doing it on the various doormats I have dotted around outside the house and sheds :mad: He hates getting his paws wet so much. I forced him to go out earlier and when I opened the door to let him in he was sat up on a wooden garden chair :rotfl:

:rotfl: he needs some of these...:rotfl:

I wonder how you measure their paws for the size?

Apologies if this has already been posted, but I think I may have stumbled across some new penny items this afternoon in a superstore with no scanners.

The first one is a pack of 6 Tesco gel pens, 3 black, 2 blue and one red in a plastic wallet, bc 6892. Sel said 25p.

The second one is a bit of a mystery. 2 out of the following three lightbulbs scanned at 1p, and they also still triggered the 3 for 2 offer. Sel said 50p/ 3 for 2. I cannot tell which ones it was from the receipt, it just says "Lightbulb" in each case. They are all halogen saver candle bulbs, make is TCP.

18watt = 24w / 210 lumen "fat" bayonet bc 3398
18 watt =24w/ 210 lumen "thin" bayonet bc 3381
28 watt = 37 watt/ 370 lumen "fat" screw in bc 3411

The style of the packaging was like this.



They didn't have any more so I couldn't go back and find out which ones it was.

I also got some men's black socks with Santas on reduced to 20p a pair, which are fine on me ( shoe size 6) for round the house. As Alfie is also a great believer in the joy of socks and is constantly stealing them and hiding them round the garden, they will come in very handy for keeping warm on cold days.

Afternoon peeps.

LOL, not happy.:mad:
Just got banned from a T's home+, for 2 pens :eek:. Went to have a nosey and saw 2 SA's scanning all the stationary, they had a few on their trolley, so I asked them if they were the 1p stuff, yes it was, so I took 2. They even said, is that all you want. I have been trouted in this store a few times so didn't want to go through tills with a lot.
Got to tills, scanned them and paid, when another SA grabbed the pens and my receipt and told me I wasn't having them!! She called for someone to come and sort it out. Some bloke came over, asked if I'd paid and said 'let him have them' He then said I was barred for abusing the system!!! It was the same bloke who got a bit pi55ed off when I got the TCO's last year! Even told me that if I ever set foot in the store again, he'd do me for trespassing. :rotfl:
Email to Head office methinks. :cool:

You should also go on the Tesco Facebook page and tell them how you were treated, also if you managed to get the name of the SA who banned you and tell them. I've been in contact and they have told me the stuff is reduced to 1p when it's at the end of the clearance and they just want to get rid of it. The told me it shouldn't be for sale and but if anyone gets to self-service with 1p goods and scans it then they are to let them have the goods.

Morning guys, I am at work at the moment but trying to get my head around something which might work in our favour;)

The large Tresemme Shampoos are on 3 for £10 in Sada but only £2.40 in Tosco so will give a APG anyway... but.............. the Olay razor is also definately in the 3 for £10 deal too as i saw it in store last night, but not showing on A.com or msm although it does not compare very well to any other store.

Trying to work out what would be the best option of buying 2 shampoos and 1 razor and hoping the APG sees full price of both shampoos. £4.99 v £2.40(although will lose money on the razor)


Or would it work out better to buy 3 shampoos alone?

I have confused myself here!!:rotfl:

And to add insult to injury, i dont even need shampoo!!! I have shed loads of the stuff.

Neither do i but so exciting :rotfl: a change from pantane

In case there are any "dodgy" ones in our midst (not me of course :A), the Ariel Excel Gel With Febreze 16 Wash 592Ml goes in to your T basket at £6 and is half price from tomorrow.;)

Potential 10 bottles for £15. Not as good as A (if you can get it), but still a decent price.:)

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: tempting especially if my garden doesn't dry up soon! He's so stubborn, it's a battle of wits to get him out. He's wise to bribes now so I just have to use sheer brut force! :cool:

Thank you for your e-mail.

There are rare occasions when discontinued products go beyond the "reduced to clear" period, and the value will be reduced to a penny on our tills. We look to remove these items from sale.

We are not legally obliged to offer the customer products for 1pence, as the Shelf Edge Label would have been marked up with the full price. However, the stores should be encouraged to allow the sale to go through for 1p, but it is up to the Managers discretion as to whether he/she will allow it.

Thank you for taking the time to contact us

That's interesting, by that do they mean they throw them away, or give them to staff for free? Could explain why some SAs are getting their knickers in a twist about it

And how does that work with those stores that are still charging a higher price?! Far too confusing for me


Evening :wave:

Hoping to have a bit of a scan in Ts later, though I've no idea what I'm doing so don't have my hopes up too high
