    I purchased a Braun Multipractic Freshmatic System (with 2 containers) for £19.99 at Baldock Tescos on Friday. In the Argos catalogue later that day, I saw it was £99.99!!

    They are still doing the Elton John 1900 - 2002 at £9.97, scanning at £9.97, but its displayed within an area saying CD's at £9.97.

    Got planet of the apes the other day. £5.97 on the sleeve, scanning for £6.97.

    Noticed some shops have offers on the charts this week and others don't, very strange????

    I did see that all the 900-1100grm Chicken Thighs were priced wrong today, didn't get any though, no meat on em!!! but they're bound to be available tomorrow!

    Can someone explain the Live Aid one as I only see them advertised at £32.97 and selling for the same...?

    Oh, and I also managed to get 4 crates of Carlsberg 12 packs :beer: on Friday night, offer card £7.29, went through at £7.89, although I haven't seen this anywhere else since.

    The meat is getting hard to find faults with now isn't it!?!?

    HAPPY HUNTING!! ;)

    I think you got one of these wrong. Do you remember which was the lower price?

    If your luck had been in it would have had a £29.99 (about that) sticker on it

    Soz....

    Elton John 1970 - 2002 album, (white with his mug in the corner!)

    It is displayed with loads of other recognised names in the larger stores....

    The display should have a clear sign in the center "CD's at £9.77"

    Yet Elton goes through at £9.97, hence " :eek: Overpriced :eek: "

    OH DEAR!

    I have three now (different visits to different stores, before some people get upset!), one for each floor of my house!!!!!

    Scottish beef mince this morning, £2.06 on SEL, £2.24 on pack, scans at £2.24 (though it wouldn't scan on the self-scanner for some reason, so I took a risk). The pork mince was wrongly priced too but I left that for someone else - we prefer beef :D

    A DVD warning - Dawson's Creek first series, £15 something on SEL, £16 something on the box, but it scans at the lower price.

    The very nice woman on CS said, in a concerned tone, "Oh dear, this keeps happening to you doesn't it?" :rotfl:
