not sure if this will work as Blackpool Tesco only had 2 copies, but The Day After Tomorrow DVD is £5.86 at the moment and is also in the 3 for £19 "offer"
As 3 of them should only cost £17.58 then you would be overcharged, whether or not they could get out of it by virtue of the other offer I'm not sure...0 -
Been back and forth a few times over last couple of days to a few different Tesco's and found a LOT of mis-prices on CD's and DVD's
Plenty of Christmas Presi's to be had :-)
I did go back a few pages of this thread and didn't see any of these, but apologies in advance if this is a duplicate list...
George Michael - Listen Without Prejudice CD - STICKERED at 4.97 / Charged 7.97
Alicia Keys - The Diary of... - STICKERED at 5.97 / Charged 9.77 (!)
Thin Lizzy - Greatest Hits DVD - Shelf = 8.95 (ish) / Charged = 9.96
Princess Diaries 2 DVD - STICKERED at 7.97 / Charged 8.97
Ella Enchanted DVD - STICKERED at 8.46 / Charged 8.97
WARNING!! - DO NOT BUY 3 of the 8.97 DVD's or they will be reduced in a "3 for £19" offer
This will mess up your refund "mission" - trust me - happened to me! :-(Always after a bargain... :-)0 -
Can't believe it. I've just got myself a free PC!
It's the Phillips Iqon celeron. Priced on shelf as £448, the box says £349.93,
so I took one to a scanner and it scanned at the higher price!
Had to argue a bit with the manager, but eventually he relented and gave me a full refund!
The is in the Tesco express, Longton, Stoke on Trent.
They took them all straight off the shelves though.
Thats my Xmas sorted!!0 -
I only went in for a few bits. £10 spend. Got an R +R without trying again.
Skinless and boneless salmon fillets off the fish counter. Sign saying 2 for £3.
She charged me £3.18.
And Finest Emmental still overpriced, but my staff member chaperone was picking up every item I put down on the cheese shelf, so I put down the emmental with a big full on smile at her. I wanted cheddar, but still like to look!
Not quite a free PC though...! Well done sparkerzzzz!!!!!! :beer: And well done Tesco for honouring the promise on such a costly item.
I think you've now overtaken my 1st ranking on the most expensively priced item obtained under R + R:rotfl:Who made hogs and dogs and frogs?

Got this cd about 1/2 hour ago from Tesco, Riverside, Dundee - priced as above and scanned at the more expensive price - woops seemed not to be paying attention as it scanned at the higher price! A wee trip to customer service after payment was made, and a refund was made and a free cd.
Thanks Tesco, first time i have done this and it makes up for the foostie strawberrries i got the other day that got chucked out - note i paid full price for them!

Word of warning for the Coventry Ricoh Arena Tesco (has plenty of stock).......... my brother had one at the till but some thoughtful person behind him made him & the checkout op aware of the misprice.
ps - IIRC Mine was form a shelf with a SEL of £397. Hope everyone who wants one has had a chance to get one.....as per suggestions I have not yet had my refund to give others a fair crack.0
