A question about : Tesco Misprices Thread 14

This thread is for posting the misprices only. Discussion about the DTD policy should be posted in this thread

This thread is for posting any misprices you find at Tescos which give rise to a DTD opportunity.

For new readers:

For clarification SEL stands for Shelf Edge Label and DTD stands for Double the Difference.

the Tesco policy on signs instore is :-

And if things don't add up ~ In the unlikely event you are charged a higher price than on the shelf or the product we will refund you double the difference

The thread for discussing JTD spots is here

Best answers:

  • Please try and keep this thread for reporting of misprices (and questions about them) and not for chat or moans about Tesco in general. Otherwise the important bits of information get lost amongst the chatter and people can't find the info they need quickly and easily. Thanks
  • This is my first bargain so please be gentle!
    Legs and half legs of lamb are half price at Tesco. I grabbed 2 at my local store (W*lling). One had a half price sticker, the other didn't, they both had the individual prices on the labels, one was Ј5.77, the other one (which didn't have the half price sticker) had a price of Ј11.77). When I paid, one went through as half price, the one without the sticker went through at full price.
    I went to customer services and she said no prob, I'll give you Ј6 back and I said, oh I thought it should be DTD. She said no as it didn't have a half price sticker on. I said yes but the shelf edge label said half price so she eventually relented and refunded me Ј11.77.
    Hope that makes sense!
  • Just got my first dtd!
    Nerf thunderstorm water gun. Standard shelf location ticketed at 12.96 and promotional area had it at 14.96. Ticket on lower price expired on 27/5.
    Scanned at 14.96 so got 4 quid back. Wouldnt pay 15 quid for it but is worth 11 alright ep a you dont have to pump it to prime it so good for my 5 year old! Although you do need 4 xAA batteries to make up for the fact you dont pump it!
    Store Springhill, Bangor,NI
  • Got a dtd yesterday on Tesco Finest Prosecco yellow SEL stated price reduced to 7.99 from 9.99 at tills scanned at full price. Had bought 3 bottles so dtd got me Ј12 back - tesco B***ick upon Tw**d CS were brilliant and gave me dtd without having to ask.
  • I had a weird one this afternoon...this may be store specific but I dont know how the SELs are printed.
    I went to get some Capri Sun's 5pk @ 1.86 as the 10pks are 2.99 or 2 for Ј5, But noticed the SEL stating Capri Sun "Champions" on the left hand side of the SEL, but on the right was Ј1.86 BOGOF cherry coke, coca cola. I looked again and it looked like the right hand side was a old coca cola offer.. looking at all the other 5 pk Capri Suns they were all marked Ј1.86 so I grabbed 10 of the "Champion" packs tropical flavour all scanned at Ј1.86 went to CS and got refunded Ј18.60 they didnt know how it happened either?
    My local was the $taly8r1dgЈ branch...they did remove the SEL after I went to CS
  • Picked up the Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy BluRay/DVD Steelbook today. SEL stated Ј11.00 but charged Ј17.97. Got DTD Ј13.94 back so only cost Ј4.03!!
    I think they were going to try and argue that the SEL stated DVD (which it did) however, the DVD itself was placed on a separate display priced at Ј6.98
  • My local has the packs of 6 x 568ml bottles of Magners dotted around the store in stacks. Most of the stacks had been updated to Ј9.00, but one still had a Ј6.00 SEL.
    I couldn't be bothered getting any myself, but I saw a couple picked two packs up from the Ј6.00 stack, so I explained to them that they would be overcharged and how they should go about getting DTD.

  • I placed an order online with Tescos, and I ordered 16 Cherries (which were half price) and they charged me Ј44 on my bill, yet they should have cost 62p. Am I entitled to double the price back = Ј88??
  • They have refunded the Ј44 and also given me Ј20 voucher but wondered if I should ask for the DTD
  • Today in my local store I saw cases of 12 x 330ml bottles of Corona Extra (imported Mexican beer) in a stack labelled 3 for Ј22.
    I bought 6 cases, but was charged Ј66. Obviously this was a Ј22 overcharge, so I got a DTD refund of Ј44.
    I used a Ј5 off coupon too, so I got 72 bottles for Ј17 = 24p per bottle.

  • Ok so today I have just got
    4 x 4 finger Kit Kats at Tesco - SEL Ј1.00 (NOT only that but a great big sign and display stand)
    These are all called Brit Kats for the Jubilee
    Anyway till costs Ј1.50
    So went back for DTD and got back Ј1.49
    Who knows how I got more than DTD but thought you guys may like DTD. Unfortunately no money to be made on this one
  • Lucky you getting more DTD than it should be
    Will look out for these, thank you!!
  • I poste the above in the general forum as nobody seems to talk on here anymore about DTD, what on earth happened to the big interest.
    I think this thread should be closed and all post again in the main forum. What do you think guys, you can't even respond on here without getting everything mixed up :-(
    The b-guide that removed my post :-/ !!!
