Supermarket mis-price policies

gillez

I've recently been reading the Tesco mis-pricing thread. I didn't realise until I read this that they have a double-the-difference policy (and that they used to have a refund & retain policy - if I'd read it a couple of years ago I would have a free Xbox and PSP!) Unfortunately I don't shop at Tescos, mainly because there isn't one nearby. My local supermarkets are either Sainsburys, M&S food, or Asda. So I was wondering what the mis-price policy is in these and other supermarkets? Is it just the difference or do they also offer these extra incentives to check the receipt?

Tesco - DTD
Sainsburys - ?
Asda - £2 giftcard for every item overcharged.
M&S - ?
Co-Op - ?
Morrisons - difference
Somerfield - ?
Lidl - difference
Aldi - ?

Can anyone help fill in the gaps? Thanks to all... :beer:

ASDA gives a £2 giftcard for every item overchanged

Damn! I thought Tesco had stopped all that after R&R finished.

They owe me another 52p for the pricing error I found there last week.

Thanks hflower. I've updated the original post.

Does anyone have anymore? Sainsbury's is the one I'm really interested in!

I don't think any other supermarkets offer any incentives, which is anoying as sometimes you can be standing there for 10-15 mins waiting to get your money back.

Morrisons give the difference.

Lidl give the difference.

Asda dont also give a giftcard if overcharged. Depends on who you get, how much you were overcharged, how much you spent ............etc etc

That's true - sorry. I put it on here because this is the main forum that I tend to read and I was following on from the "Tesco mis-price" thread, but that's no excuse.

So which is the best forum to use for this type of question? If the mods move it, where will they move it to?

I bought a T-shirt recently in Sainsbury's sale reduced to 90p, but was charged full price of £3 odd. Customer Service just refunded the £2 odd that I had been overcharged, nothing more.
