1p Energy Saving Bulbs

withabix

I've just been to Tesco in Carlisle (Rosehill) on my way to work and can CONFIRM that these lightbulbs were on sale for 1p on the shelves.

I filled two carrier bags for 50p, however it was a bit of a battle with all the Tesco staff who were filling baskets themselves as soon as they arrived for work!!

Went through self service tills (with a queue of staff who were doing the same thing) and there were no eyebrows raised.

I couldn't beleive there were still any there at 7.45am!!

Quite a lot of General Electric, Tesco Energy and Tesco Value branded bulbs were 1p, but it is only about 1/3 of the range they stock. The rest were normal price.

I think we can safely say that we are all gratful to the OP judging by the number of thanks OP has. Its worth a look

Many thanks op got ten this morning, going to get hubby to put them all up later. Did have a manager by them though stating their bulk buy policy was six of each item, one woman asked of each type and he said no you can have 6 light bulbs like you can only have six of any other type of thing in store. I picked up six hubby picked up six and gave 2 tio his mum and we left the woman arguing that how come they have never complained at her buy 20 tins of cat food at a time

What utter rubbish. This is not about pointing out a hoax, its been about a one person crusade about any old rubbish you come up with. Readers are interested in the grabbit, not what you think of government legislation or the MD of Tesco.
Thanks to the OP for what turned out to be a real genuine bargain grabbit.

Hi, I managed to get some 1p Tesco and GE Bulbs from Tesco, Bar Hill.

They had not changed the shelf edge label, and they were putting lots of new bulbs out.

You do need to check as some as mentioned above in posts, are still full price.
