    Amazing find, thank you so much for sharing it with us!!

    Also thanks to Ben500 who's details I wrote down and took with me. I paid nothing, not a penny! Went through the self scan with my gammons and it took off the full amount!

    What a find, im thrilled! :j

    Thanks OP :beer:

    What started out for me as a close shave ended up a real result. Popped in for a paper, carrots and some cheese and picked up a smoked gammon joint. Went over to the gift card till and the lad had to ask another till to weigh my carrots, he picked up that I'd been undercharged on the gammon (free), so spoke to customer services and sent me over to them. CS called her manager who said to charge me what had come up on the till :T . Being cheeky, I asked if I could go and get an unsmoked joint, even looked after my bag while I went and got it. This one came up as free too:j . Asked her manager (again) and she said I could have that one too. I've just got in and noticed that they didn't charge me for the carrots either :rotfl:

    Gammon is the new turkey :T

    Tesco
    Wiltshire Cured
    Unsmoked/smoked
    Part boned
    Gammon Joint

    Dressed in brown 1cm gauge netting beneath outer clear polypack and over clear cryovac packaging, occasionally with soft poly outer bag, usually situated in end cold cab ABOVE bone in joints. Those of you not hitting on this offer it is because you are picking up the WRONG packs, the correct packs are around 8k+ in weight as opposed to bone in which can range up to 10.5k

    Not to be confused with the larger Tesco bone in Gammon/Ham joint.
    Price should be between £20.50 - £23.95 The larger Bone in joints priced around £15.50-£19.50 are NOT subject to this glitch.
    HTH

    Thanks for all the details Ben500, but it just confirmed what I already knew - this glitch is not working in all Tescos.
    I tried again today twice, even though I swore I wouldn't waste my time again, and the stores were manic - I picked up the joints exactly as you quoted, both joints over £20 - and just got £5 off each. So I er forgot my credit card again, and again.....
    So for those of you like me who cannot get the cheap, or free gammon - you are not going mad, nor getting it wrong. Your stores, like mine, must be just more on the ball than the lucky ones - unfortunately :cool:
