    Yeah for sure theres a lot of dodgy looking meat there and you have to be careful. I avoid the ones that look brown to dark brown and go for the steaks which still look red or pink.

    I'm no expert, but I remember reading that good steak should not be bright pink or red.

    I had fish the other day, it was perfectly edible and didn't smell "fishy" at all. Mind you, it was one of these posh packagings which are packed in the factory, not the ones from the counter.

    No, it's human-error.. and theft.

    Not judging, but that's what it is.

    Can we stick to actual Bargain Alerts please? This thread is verging on lock-down!

    Easy way to find out what is going to be the next bargain, from Sunday to Wednesday, sections are re-planned, the stock coming off will be reduced to clear on the SEL. In fresh areas, they may be reduced before the plan was done.

    so if you see a section with all the stock off the shelves and new stuff going up, check back there or in the clearance section for reductions. or check online, if your house bound like me.

    Regarding the meat; I have seen meat in Tescos bargain corner that had a brown suspicious lump inside it. It looks like some part of the meat has decided to go off before the rest of it. That's the dodgy meat I'm referring to.. when it looks too dark almost with a green tinge. Sometimes it's like a wave where whatever bacteria which makes these changes in the meat hasnt made it's way through all the way but you can see it has begun. The best bargain corner meat is when it looks identical to the stuff which hasnt passed it's best before or use by date.

    Back on the specific topic I have seen the 100G mint crisps for 36 or was it 39 cent in Tesco on Baggot Street and in Tesco in Thomas Street. Thomas Street still has a dozen left. Baggot Street was out of stock today. Personally I'm overbought in the choc department as it will take me 2 years to eat through the hundred Golden Crisps I have already stockpiled :D

    They have 400g Toblerone for 2 something also. I would have bought it normally, but when you can get 100g or 220g of cadburys for 39c and 66c respectively, why would you?

    Below is the blue and white version - it's easier to see what you are actually looking for - in red and white.
    Note - only the red and white version is reduced:

    it is a damn fine coffee! 7 quid isn't all that great, tesco had it on special for 5.85 or something for few weeks, Dunnes sometimes have it on special for fiver(200g) wait until it's on special again and stock up.

    Have loads of these left in Cavan branch on main st. As someone else said they are marked 39.99 on shelf but wont give a price when scanned and code must be put in manually and should come up as 7.99....:D

    the current tesco leaflet has

    Mini Creme Egg Bag 100g
    Mini Egg Bag 100g
    Mini Egg Tube 120g

    €1.95 each or TWO FOR €1!

    sure it's a misprint, but you might be able to persuade them to give you them at this price

    I bet he found it was €7.99, but wanted it for himself so told you €24.99. You should have brought it to the till.

    Spotted in Tesco Tallaght – Tesco Italian range meals are all 2 for a fiver…the 1.2kg lasagne is normally €6 each…but now 2 for €5! Makes sense!? Possibly muck but for €2.50 a piece, worth a try! (each pack supposedly serves 4….hmmm!). I checked that it scans as the offer price. :)

    You have to wonder whether these are deliberate - a handy way of getting your prices posted on boards and social media by people laughing at the (apparent) stupidity - and getting a massive amount of advertising for the lower price they were selling it at anyway.

    Maybe you missed the text around the brand name, or else you are so, so subtle...... Either way, there are lots of people behind you...... :D

    i was wondering wait that. or the fact that the single price is so hood people might pick up 2 and get hit with that big price

    In Athlone Carex handwash liquid soap 250ml is reduced to half price which works out around 84 cent from an original price of €1.69 each.
    For some reason it's just 44 cent for one type - Moisture Plus. Picture below:
