Look at this thread here
for some very long ( but helpful) discussions of the policy and people's experiences.I'd better not post on this thread any longer as its just for misprices.
You needn't be stuck with a laptop- you can take it back, or not pay for it if when you get to the till it scans at the lower price.0 -
Am I right in thinking if the shelf price for the laptop says £568 and you get charged £568 then you dont get anything out of it.
But is there a box price on the laptop box aswell? I could not see a price on the box itself. But supposing there was a price on the box, and it was less than £568, does that mean I get refunded my £568 and get to keep the computer too...in other words just get the laptop for free? Or do they send me away with £568 and a free laptop. All sounds too good to be true.

Hi guys
if you want to try getting ur money back, go to the cheese aisle, look for the Tesco Vegetarian Edam wedges, they will have a shelf sticker of 4.38 / kg, but when you look at the price on the product, its 4.65 /kg, so take it to till, pay for it then go to CS desk and advise them you were overcharged on the cheese.
Every store I have been in this week has this cheese overpriced
Good luck guys, I was shi*$ing bricks the 1st time I tried this too, but you soon get the hang of it, I never pass a Tesco now without having a quick look round
Happy shopping

If the price is any higher that stated on the box then yes, you should be able to get a refund for the full amount and get to keep the product...so yes, a free laptop!!!:beer:0

Tom you are correct, however the laptop in question has had the wrong price on it for a long time, in my local store anyway, the SEL is £568 and the price on the box is £598, but unlucky for me, it scans at £568, therefore it's correctly priced. I give up how many times I visited and rescanned.. :rotfl:
Good luck in your store.

Gallop,
I see you are new to the site so welcome (where've you been all this time!)
If it states £598 on the SEL and £568 on the box and you pay £598 that's an overprice. You get a refund and keep the item for free! Simple as that!Keep SmilingSite member number 24
