Tesco: SEL Misprice on Ginster Deep Fill Pepper Steak Slice - get paid to buy them!

An opportunity to get paid to take these out of the store!

SEL says 72p

Scans at £1.45

Overcharge = 73p

Double the difference = £1.46

Profit = 1p per item

Only works on Pepper Steak Slice - chicken & mushroom has correct SEL.

Worked at Bolton Middlebrook in-store and in the petrol station earlier today. Petrol station removed the SEL.

Check in your local store and fill you freezer!! :D

    This one won't last long, that's why it's a Grabbit! The SELs get removed pretty quickly when DIFFERENCE is more than SEL.

    They will move it if they feel the need. There are no 'mods' on MSE by the way, only board guides and MSE.

    bought Bart Black peppercorn (40g) in Tesco Nottingham (Carlton) last night and SEL price was 91p but just noticed this morning on my reciept went through at £3-49 (quite a difference).
    Never done this before , so when I go to the CS do I need to remind them its a Double the Difference or will they already know ?:confused:

    Surely the profit is 1p per item.

    Ginsters - are they nice? :eek:

    No way they are. being a Cornishman and having the mis-fortune to see my team being sponsored by that c**p, I would ask perople to avoind Ginsters like the plague.

    Mind you, only we Cornishmen can tell the difference with pasties while you emmets over the border will think pasties are made with mince beef and carrots! Oh well, you will learn one day.

    Would never ever eat their s**t let alone being paid to take them away as the OP mentioned earlier. Would rather starve than eat their rubbish.
    Better in my pocket than theirs!

    You'll be telling me next that you can get Cumberland sausage anywhere south of Cumbria...

    These aren't a)described as Cornish b)located in Cornwall.

    They are a cheap snack/lunch.

    Especially cheap when they pay you to take them away.

    OK, so they look like a giant woodlouse (or a f*nny pad apparently :eek: ), but they are tasty and deliciously bad for you.

    Anyway, everyone knows that pasties were invented in Devon....or was it Norway?
