Harry Potter DVD from Tescos
Comments

I got double the difference on this earlier. I spent way over the £30 (excluding the DVD). No discount was taken off. Apparently, the cashiers have to press a button on the till to take off the discount if you spend enough (which I did). £12 refunded, although the customer services person wasn't very happy about it.In a rut? Can't get out? Don't know why?
It's time to make that change.

In Tesco they advertise if you spend over £30 you can purchase this DVD for £8. I spent £70 this morning and when I got home and checked my receipt it showed the Harry Potter DVD as £0.01 :eek: . So I'm not sure if this is a glitch or have I just missed something

. Either way I am more than happy to pay just £0.01p!! 0 -

For the offer to go through on some tills, the till staff have to key in a special code which charges 1p. This then triggers a Harry Potter discount of £6.01 thus reducing the DVD to £8 overall.
(Unless you are simply reading till receipt wrong) it appears that the staff have simply keyed in the code instead of scanning the DVD in error.
Well done you!0 -
Thanks Mike for the explanation. I've doubled checked my receipt and it looks like that is what the lady must have done as it does only charge me 1p :j .0

There are large blue signs behind each customer service desk advising that if they overcharge you {which they will} you get double the difference back in the remote chance that you do. It's Tesco's licence to rob it's customers.Four guns yet only one trigger prepare for a volley.Together we can make a difference.0 -

Does anyone know when this offer ends? I ordered my Tesco shop yesterday and had it delivered today and have been charged the full £14 for the HP DVD, just want to make sure I've got my facts straight before I go marching into Tesco for my double the difference refund lol. I can't seem to find an end date anywhere though. Many thanksStarted comping 29/10/2010
