Could do with some confirmation on this, was just on the radio and they phones tesco on air to coonfirm.
Tesco have made a pricing error. Elegance Bayonet Energy Saving Light Bulbs should be approx £2.50 yeach, currently marked and selling for 1p!!!!!!
They are in a green box with a '6' on the front and yellow banding.
If someone could check this would be great as I cant get to Tesco's =(

Was on here last week. They are clearing out stock. Some store may have them they are priced at 1 penny on the shelf. I got 18, they went throught at the higher price & the till staff asked if they were meant to be a 1p I said yes but offered to pay full price & go along to CS & get double the amount back, she thought about it then said I will call supervisor to check the price, thye did & put them through at 1p. They are clearing out all 6 year energy saving bulbs.0

Unfortunately at my Tescos they are still full price.
I made a point of finding them and was really disappointed to find them still at full price. I would have stocked up!MS Stalwart. Used site for >10 years :jMake Do, Mend and Minimise member - focussing on upcycling/repurposing and sewing0 -
Even if they're full price on the shelves they may still be reduced. My local Tesco has them full priced but when I checked them at the self scanner they were showing a price of 1p and they went through the tills at 1p. The manager and supervisor are aware that they're 1p but for some reason the haven't bothered changing the price on the shelf?
It's not just the bayonet bulbs either, I got some screw ones.
There's a big thread on the Grabbit board about the 1p bulbs.

I'll move this to the Grabbit Board to be merged with the main thread

Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere(please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies.
