    I have heard of that but it's not what I've been doing. The glitch I been using makes everything pretty much free :)

    What your talking about the staff will notice you as CS has the same staff on. For a quick £10 no thanks

    And now I am being grumpy to my OH............ I cannot take the suspense!

    surely the glitch may still work when the system changes just means you may have to put a few muggle items into your shopping to make sure it doesnt go minus

    is the glitch that the system doesnt pick up offer prices while still matching other stores offer prices

    I haven't got an opinion on heol:)


    And you've made my point exactly......you don't care who opens the next thread......but some people do.........we used to discuss it......maybe it went to someone who had found a glitch.....what about bubbs and her cheese:rotfl: or nan and her lucozade......many people here save money for others day in and day out.......

    We need a good strong thread.


    Tend to agree!

    The thing about discussing who starts a new thread is that it always used to cause disagreements in itself. It became a bit of a competition and got quite nasty at times.
    I don't know what the solution is or even if there is one. I do know that the reasons why people stay away won't change no matter who starts a thread.


    Tend to agree again!

    I don't care who starts a thread. I think the thread discussions always lead to the same old regular posters starting thread after thread.. anyone should be able to start a thread.

    Those that boycott the thread because they don't like the starter need to seriously get a grip on themselves.


    Westie had a good idea awhile ago and that was anyone that hasn't started one and wanted to, should start the thread! :)

    "We know you want great value for money and the best deals, but that you don't want the hassle of shopping around. That’s why we price match the products you love, not only branded, but fresh and own-label too."

    https://www.tescopricepromise.com/

    So now, on their own argument, assuming their own argument to be correct, we'll have the hassle of shopping around (for own-label products) after, in the future, the own label products are excluded.

    (Might write to them:rotfl:. Would be pointless though I feel, so I'm not bothered. Why are you giving us the hassle of shopping around for own label products?)

    However, on my own view, we'd always had to "shop around" and it was not a "hassle" that they are trying to convince me it is. It's all in their own interests (and therefore I reject every bit of it:rotfl:). I've always said what the price guarantees do is to try to get us to shop blithely at one place and to forget how about much it is costing and try to make people think there's no point shopping around as 'all their purchases will be price-matched and therefore they'll get the best deal on them anyway', whereas, we know, you can only get this if you shop absolutely even more carefully and check everything in the basket and compare. This means that price guarantees increase the need to shop around (not the other way around as the stores (all the different ones not just T) like to try to convince us).

    "Our Price Promise matches the food you love, so you don't have to shop around."

    Oh we do:p. The food I "love" might be more expensive elsewhere and its price be matched to that:(, so that we definitely need to shop around!

    EDIT: And I suspect the answer to my hypothetical and, of course, point-nailhitting question "Why are you giving us the hassle of shopping around (for own label)?" would be something like the following: "At Tesco, our price promise has always provided great value for our customers. That's why we're making it simpler":(:(:(. (In other words, the usual neurotypical response that fails to answer any question whenever it hits the nail firmly on the head.)

    I haven't got any :o and the worst thing is that I CBA to go to the chemist to get some - the one across the road from my house isn't open today and the next closest one that would have it is in the shopping centre up the road - my idea of the most hellish nightmare, the way I feel today :(:o I'll pick some up tomorrow though :)
