  • Got the beef and two types of cheese today a refund which totaled just under £25 no problems however I also had the Value peppers a "massive" overcharge of 10p. However the CS guy said he would not do the refund as the SEL lable was correct and the 2 ft square POS poster didn't count in law. Having just got back my £25 do you think I was going to argue the toss over 78p...... to right I was and I got it back too? thanks Mr. T Steak again for dinner and I still have not finished the last lot or the gamon or the bacon but I was running low on cheese.

    Tesco Finest cheeses (I knew they would slip up eventually!)
    Pack prices all going through correctly based on £9.99/kg.
    Big sign in front of cheeses advertising them at £9.95/kg (whoops).

    The 3 cheeses they have as a "Buy 3 for £3" have £1.19 printed on the pack.
    The shelf has £1.24 on 2 flavours but scan at £1.19 - Keep an eye on these!

    MOODS 3CD Boxset Sticker £3.97 - SEL £4.97 Scan £4.97 Charged £4.97

    PAN PIPES 3CD Boxset Sticker £3.97 - SEL £4.97 Scan £4.97 Charged £4.97

    Both CD barcodes easy to check in my store as well positioned inside sleeve!

    Plenty of the BOGOF Hovis bread rolls reduced to 22p. Got 12 rolls for 22p!

    A Cambs store.

    Maidstone Tescos...4x800g Scottish mince + 5xValue Peppers all overpriced as per thread Mon evening, I noticed all the 500g mince were also overpriced but left for a later visit. Tues evening 4x500g mince + 5x200g sliced smoked salmon and all the sliced salmon was overpriced, strangely all the mispriced value peppers were reduced to 10p so picked up another 6 bags. Our fridge/freezer is now obese. Used Tesco vouchers out of their magazine but not all tills take them but honoured by CS on big enough shop.

    Lion steaks? Not sure I like the sound of them. Suppose you have to be feline in the mood for them.

    Picked up two 800g packs of Scottish Minced Beef last night, £2.06 SEL - £2.24 on pack. Tipped off my brother who also got two packs. Thanks to OP.

    Went into Tesco this morning and got my first 1p/kg overcharged item. I have had many of the other overcharged items where there has been more of a difference but this was the first time I dared try it with a 1p-er.

    There did seem to be an unusual number of meat products that had yellow price/kg correction labels on them!!!

    Tesco British Topside of Beef (Ideal for Roasting) was priced at £5.09/Kg on the SEL and £5.10/Kg on the actual product. These are large bits of beef over 3Kg each.

    CS did not, at first understand that this was an overcharge and then tried to make out that it was only 1p overcharge (it was only 3p - but even if it was only 1p - it would still have been an overcharge).

    On production of the SEL it was obvious to all concerend that I had indeed been overcharged and the very nice CS lady explained that I would be given back the full value of BOTH the packs and to keep them. Made me wish I had been more daring (greedy) and taken another couple of them.

    So that is enough free beef to keep me in Sunday lunches for a few weeks.
    Your really can not beat a good bargain !!!

    Tescos Halifax Metro store had Topside of beef at £4.69 on the shelf price and £6.29 on the packs , no 3kg plus packs though ! Got the last 4 on the shelf for a total of £36.79 , full refund + the beef but the CS assistant removed the old ticket.

    Try the King Cross store, they may have them !

    Hi
    just come back from my local Tescos, the following were mispriced.
    Tesco finest cheese with cherries
    Tesco finest cheese with shallotts
    Tesco finest cheese with apricots
    4p a kilo difference

    Tesco Healthy Eating turkey breast steaks 50p a kilo difference

    Scottish mince beef 400g and 200g packs both mis priced.

    Hope this is of help to someone, sorry cant give the exact prices etc as they are now in the freezer with the steak, gammon, corn fed chicken.
    Will do better next time and get take note of proper details
    Savings at Tescos so far £145.21

    It may be worth while checking out the laptops, boxes are marked at £598, big sign up in my Tescos stating £568, did check and they scanned at lower price, however maybe not all Tescos are on the ball with this
    regards to all
    Elaine.
