EJ Greatest Hits £9.77 scans as £9.97. Do you not read this forum?

Courvoisier 70cl cognac / brandy whatever you want to call it.

£15.49 on the shelf, £17.64 (or thereabouts) at the till.

I didn't get this one but it was a woman standing next to me who did as I got my meat refunded. This one may be a bit thin on the ground because I did try another couple of stores after I saw her get her refund but with no success. D'oh!

Didn't spot any misprices today but did buy some Kinder Happy Hippos on BOGOF, bought 14 packs and no mentioned the bulk buying policy to me. In each box there is a code which entitles you to 2 swims for 2 children under 15, you print off the voucher with the code from the box. Full details on this thread.

Just back from Tesco Beverley, got deli counter Pilgrims choice pre packed, sorry can't remember the price. Lamb and Rosemary ready to carve joints £3.99 on Sel £4.99 on box, scan at £4.99 & some outdoor reared lamb.

CS very pleasant, said it just shows everyone should check receipt. Too right!!

What is the Jem poster, don't know if I've seen one?

Hehehe... I can see this being addictive...!

Tesco Kingsway Dundee

A nice little haul:
Jem CD 9.97 SEL, Poster 7.97, Scan 9.97
RazorLight CD 9.97 SEL, Poster 7.97, Scan 9.97
10 medium free range eggs, SEL 1.21, Scan 1.27
Eve Green by Susan Fletcher book, SEL 3.73, Scan 3.97

Some "corrected" prices:
Salmon 200g, Pack 2.88, Scan 2.56
Mature Coloured Healthy Cheese, Pack 1.42, Scan 1.19

Would have been nicer if we didn't manage to lose the Razorback CD while loading the car... DOH!

We did notice another compilation (Festival?) CD that *might* be wrong. SEL was 14.99, poster 12.99 (I think) but didn't want to risk it. Looks like it might be worth keeping an eye on the CD posters!

Customer service - very pleasant, no arguments. Had a problem refunding to my card so paid me cash instead. Didn't even ask for my name and address - lovely!

Cheers,
Mike

!!!!!!, just been stitched up! went to Tescos in plymouth and the gammon joints were marked at £8.49 on the pack and £7.97 on the shelf. Great I thought, and stuck 5 in my trolley. Got through check out and looked at my receipt expecting I would see it priced at £8.49 and lo and behold, the reciept showed £7.97! just goes to show, sometimes when you gamble, you lose!!!

SUPERJULES

Got a total of 4 Jem cds at 2 different stores (Sheffield & Chesterfield). :j

Tried gammon joint sel £5.97, price on gammon £6.19 but went through at lower price never mind gammon for tea tomorrow.

Couldn't see anything else priced wrongly but will keep searching.

Get to know the instore price checker then you need never make this fatal error

Dont rely on instore checker; one local store doesn't have one, the other store one is always "out of order"
Better to watch items of concern as they go through at the checkout and get them removed there and then, I had that with the 2 pack of Salmon fillets today, £2.88 SEL, £2.98 on pack, went through at £2.88 so stopped cashier, asked her to check till roll as I "misread the price on the pack I think" and got her to remove it bafore I paid, then totted off to CS for my BOGOF bacon and Healthy Living Farmhouse Cheese freebies!

Spotted yesterday in my local Extra (Cov)

Think this could be a new one to look out for in other stores - prepacked bags of Italian salad (135g) - pack price £1.29, 2 big SEL's £1.12. Scanned at £1.29 so off I went for refund

Also mispriced organic rump steak, only one at wrong price so into the trolley it went.

Interestingly...the CS lady didn't even bother to get someone to go check on the misprices!!!! Just gave the refund and apologised. Very nice she was too
