When I was on afters at the pit I finished at about 21.00hrs and I always called into the local Tesco on the way home and if you timed it right you could get some fantastic bargains, they were practically giving stuff away.

[Spoonboy]

I'll join you, even though blue is apparantly my colour. To be honest, I prefer purple.

[Tilly2]

carrust, how are you going to choose what to have for tea?

[carrust]

Already done tilly. Tonight I will be mainly eating chicken paprika with sweet potatoes, followed by allotment strawberries....yum

My local Co-op has terrible stock control, for which I am eternally grateful.

I bought a big pack of smoked salmon the other day for only 95p ! Took bagels, with Philidelphia and smoked salmon to work for days !

I have even had Jersey Royals for 50p, because they were past their "sell by" date. Never knew potatoes had a sell-by date !

[carrust]

Yes Mike the staff tend to be a bit thick:-)

My local Co-op had a sign up for Pepsi buy one get one free. When I got to the counter I was charged for both. I pointed to the sign and the cashier said "that finished two weeks ago"

[Spoonboy]

Whether it was finished two weeks ago or no, they were obliged to sell you the two for the price of the one, as it was still advertised as so.

[Jeza]

Apparently not Spoony according to the manager. I said then I don't wish to buy either. He went into then the till will be wrong etc. I just left.

[Spoonboy]

You have a belligerent Co-op manager who has lost the shop a customer by arguing the toss. A recent visit to my local chemist produced the same, the chemist had to offer the item for the price on the shelf, and did so without quibble.

[Jeza]

Around Christmas time a small case of lager was on offer in Asda for £7. At the till I was charged £10. I complained was given an immediate refund and £2 off my next shop. My advice. ALWAYS check your receipt while you are in the shop and not when you get home.

[Spoonboy]

Good advice to one and all. And always say yes when asked if you want the till receipt: the Co-op always do ask.
