  • Hello All,

    Many thanks to the posters who put up about the laptop - alas none in Dundee. Stickers over the price, now showing the lower price - darn it as i want a laptop for uni.

    Many thanks to Mr T and original posters for the following:-

    Pop party jnr x 2 Poster £10.77 charged £10.97 (1 copy from South Road, Lochee, 1 from Riverside)

    The very best of the 80's x 1 Poster £7.97 charged £10.97 (South Road, Lochee) (there is 2 volumes for this volume 2 is more expensive. This is a 3 box set in a white box with the 1980's in red writing.)

    Dance party x 1 SEL £9.77 charged £10.97 (Riverside)

    Mercenaries - Playground of Destruction (ps2) x 2 charged £19.97 Sticker on box £13.97 (South Road, Lochee)

    Total Spend £85 approx (had to get bread and stuff to make it look a bit better) -

    Total refund of £82.72

    Thank you all once again - will be checking on here before going to Tesco and now have a notepad and pen by pc for unknown reason - ps my 15 year old son says "cool" and is impressed with this site too. (will call him bighairygit for the purposes of this just to be in keeping with my nickname)

    :rotfl: :T :rotfl:

    Oh can i also apologise as both Tesco's freaked out at my refunds and removed their posters but the SEL's for Dance Party is still there but there was no more of the Cd's as i got the last one tonight but doesnt mean that there wont be more tomorrow or later in the week. Was also informed that their prices / posters are supposed to be changed on Monday's.
  • where are you in NI? i am in Derry and they do not have any computers in the shop. they used to have a while back

    Carrickfergus.

    My local tescos now has white stickers over all prices on cd chart.
    Also has a very poor DVD collection

    Similar Acer laptop in Plymouth Roborough. Box prive £568 SEL £528 but couldn't find scanner - no free camera though


    Found 2 of these in Gloucester - one box marked 568, behind it a box marked 598 - SEL of 568.

    Heart pounding, approached the till - scanned at 568.

    Till guy goes "That's a good price".

    Inside I'm gutted - forced smile "Damn left my wallet at home - I'll be back".

    Went home to the OH who thinks I'm a banana.....

    Just got back from tesco in Sidcup (London,ruxley corner) they had Stella 20x440ml cans with a big sign of £12-99. I had some the other week and thought it was a good price so picked up another case. It went through the till at £14-59 , went to CS and got a refund and kept the beer. Although the lady at Cs did recognise me from the previous weeks.Rump and sirlion steak still overpriced, as was the blue stilton.

  • Heads up - Scallops!

    Great Yarmouth Yesterday - Scallops. SEL £24.xx per kg, pack £27.xx per kg. Average pack price £5.10.

    Not much else there though.

    Also, on Deli counter, there were two Cheddars that had yellow POS for reductions but showed the old KG price on the label. Unfortunately, they had actually weighed them at the reduced price so no overcharge, just mis-information.

    Plenty of other misinformation SELs too, like WAS £2.49, NOW £2.49. What are they playing at?
  • Tesco's have Stella Artois 20*330ml bottles (or was it 24?) for £9.98.
    Yesterday they were going through the till at £8.98; there were two different SEL's out, so it's worth checking this offer out.

    BTW, my local ASDA had an offer on the same thing: 2 for £16.00, which I thought was very good value.

    7 x packs of Finest Oak Cured Bacon (3 at one store, 4 at another) - SEL £2.06, pack and scanned at £2.48. Lots of Saturday fry ups - thanks Mr T!

    Had to explain policy to the Tesco Express store as they said it was only for the large stores - pointed to their "Our Promise" sign positioned about 10 ft up the wall - both strained to read and then said "a thousand apologies"! Judging from their reaction I think I am the first MSE'r (or anyone) to get a full R&R there. :rotfl:

  • SMA Progress baby milk. Prepared milk SEL 41p. Scans at 48p. Hope this helps some mums, free already prepared milk :j Thanks Mr T. Nice lot of 72 cartons for me today. Went for my refund and was told by CS that they couldn't refund me on all of the 72 cartons as there policy was that I couldn't purchase more that 6 items of the same. Oh but you have sold me 72 cartons and 20 jars of food. So I'll have a refund on all 72 thank you. Off I trotted with my £30ish refund. Have a nice day
