Hi everyone, I think I've just found a glitch with sensation crisps (150g) in tesco. All sensation crisps are showing on msm and tesco online as £1.99, in store they are £1. Sensations are £1 in asda and morrisons.
This is what I bought vs asda
Braces bread £1 v £1
Milk 4pt £1 vs 95p
Flump 10p vs 10p
Maoam strawberry 10p vs 10p
Haribo starmix 10p vs 10p
Cadburys dairy milk buttons 6x14g £1.25 vs £1
Sensations cheddar and onion 150g £1
Sensations Thai sweet chili 150g £1
Sensations roasted chicken and Tyne 150g
Sensations caramelised onion and balsamic vinegar 150g £1
Talisker malt whisky 700ml £40.00 vs £33.00.
I should have had £7.25 off at the till as the sensations are £1 in store but instead it compared the £1.99 vs £1, I had £11 something off! Hope this makes sense!
Shame if it's not comparing four at 75p each for Morrisons, but it looks like it's giving you nearly £4 more (as picking up T at £1.99 instead of £1) - but then £3 more, rather than £4, due to having £1 price and not M mbuy. The milk should not give any deduction. Can you post your full comp. against all shops please? (In other words, taken from TBG's check site.) TIA.
:think:Perhaps the extra is because the whisky may be significantly cheaper at M than A (I don't know what price the whisky is in M though) and has picked up 75p for M instead of £1 A, so that you've got more than you expected? Is this a glitch or has it indeed used T's £1 price but you've got more off because you targetted A but M turned out even better? (I bet the whisky is the answer - and an extra £1 for comparing against M on their Sensations mbuy, maybe then lost a bit off that by the Cadbury Buttons but the price at M not significantly different enough to take away the £11. [EDIT: (Checks msm.) Cadbury Buttons 6, allegedly, not at M so may have lost 25p on that (not got A comp. price match) but got more due to the whisky/Sensations against M? Braces bread, if stocked, may be £1 at M or may have gone up and be a bit more (that's if they have it) but not by enough to wipe out the difference to M on M's cheaper items.]0 -

I've only just done this shop so it's not available for me to look at online yet. I assumed this would be comparing against asda as morrisons don't sell some of the items on my list so it wouldn't be enough to compare against. Once it's available I will post the results0 -

Lisa, can you double check on your receipt you have not been charged £1.99 for the sensations.
Wouldn't be the first time tesco have had old SELs up.
No, I paid £1 each for them0 -

Tesco brand match is available as soon as you have done the shop, I usually check mine as soon as i'm out of the store.0
