Tesco Price Check
« on: July 29, 2007, 10:17:55 PM »
We've all heard the adverts and are invited to go online and see for ourselves.

Well I've been online every day for the past 5 weeks awaiting stock of an  electrical item that is ?50 cheaper at Tesco than anywhere else.  I've got e-mail alerts set up and can confirm that they've had none in stock since at least 17th June. 

Since that time they have reduced the price by a further ?5.  Why?  You could make it 'free' and never have any in stock.  Also, I thought there was a law concerning labelling something as sale, something to do with it being available at the higher price within a certain time.

Also, they've now added the price comparison on the site and added:

* All prices checked on retailers' websites on 2007-07-23. Prices based on single, on-line purchase of the same or closest equivalent product, excluding delivery. In-store and promotional prices may vary

Why have they checked the price of something they haven't stocked?

Sorry I've no anal warts to complain about.

It would piss you off if you had to go on to their website every day to discover that they still had no stock and rather than employ people to obtain stock they employ them to check competitiors prices for products they do not stock!!!

The adverts also get on my tits.  How have Asda been voted the cheapest 'super'market for 10 years running if they are more expensive than Tesco?  We should be told!

My wife may have swapped my viagra for her hormone replacement pills  sad24:

I seem to get it up the arse each pay day!

As stated it's at least 20 pints more expensive elsewhere.  Furthermore the questions raised need addressing, why pricecheck an out of stock item?  How can 2 or more supermarkets be cheapest?  We need to be told!

Funny you should say that, I ended up with this:

The product description didn't say 'Horse not included' I may have to contact trading standards...
