    Every time I have returned items to Argos they have asked for my address - it seems to be standard practice at many shops these days. I don't know what happens if you refuse but I expect some staff may consider it suspicious.

    If anyone spots a set of the reduced cushions for the Steamer bench I would gladly pay postage or collect.

    glad to see this thread grow and how many have taken advantage of these misprices. tesco are in the wrong - remember that if you ever feel guilty. they have this policy for a reason - customer confidence and to stop fines from trading standards.

    Managed to pick up 2 of the gammon joints today and 2 packs of bacon although i had a bit of an argument with the cs lady. She refused to accept that i was overcharged, then removed the shelf tickets before calling her manager so there was no evidence. I clearly stated the tickets had been removed and that i wanted to see them so we could find out who was right and who was in the wrong. Of course tickets never re-appeared. Was eventually offered a couple of pound as a good will gesture (pfff) i happily pointed out their policy sign which was in big bold writing behind the desk and said i was even willing to pone head office to discuss the matter further. Eventually got full refund :)

    Will have to pop back later and get refund on my brie as i noticed that was overpriced too. Shame they had moved all the chicken that was incorectly priced and had it as special offer now instead.

    The bacon i picked up was different to what others have been getting. These are 4x200g packs of smoked bacon advertised on shelf at £3.78 but the packs say £4.42

    Hope you find some at your locals too.

    Nice spot I was running out. Although I would point out these packs of bacon are best grilled as they are so full of water if you put them in the frying pan they just boil !

    A rip off if full price but a bargain free.

    I hope any of you frequenting other supermarkets are checking the details more carefully now too.

    Don't forget Asda's policy that they will give you a £2 gift card if you are overcharged and that one's per item! So find a nice little overcharge for an item under £2 and fill your trolley!

    is the Asda one still policy? as the signs have gone from our local Asda and we were just given the difference back by CS

    Ben500 and all other Tesco savers - would it be worth starting an Asda wrong prices thread?
