    Tesco in Nutgrove SC Dublin has a section with with various clearance items, Microsoft mice for €2.99 each, plenty left, 3 assorted Kindles for €69 each, Toshiba laptops for €299 and another make can't recall for €199 about 3 of each, 1 320GB hard drive freeview+ recorder with dvd & VHS €79, various cameras from €39, 1 Tomtom not sure of price, various cordless phones from €20, lots of Philips rechargeable candles €10, various Duracell power packs €10 I think, other items like Blue-Ray players, Ipod docks and DVD players which I think were just on offer rather than in the Warehouse sale.

    Tesco douglas had these also, not a lot left however,

    The tom tom was €219 down to €99, they also had printer ink reduced,

    HP 58 cartridges - €39.99
    tesco version of HP/lexmark cartridges - €4.99
    Lexmark ink cartridges were also reduced

    Hi Snubbleste, is this in all tescos do you know or is it hit and miss?

    Hi Snubbleste, is this in all tescos do you know or is it hit and miss?
    I assume it is all Tesco stores. They are getting rid of 'old' stock to make space for the new more expensive product.. For example the Persil 1890ml is no longer available online but there is plenty on the shelf for €7.xx, normally ~€14

    Ever think you are a BA addict?

    Went into tesco Balinasloe, saw a Lg 42Lw550T for €400. Left it behind me, was proud.

    Went into Aldi across the road, and by the time I was finished in Aldi I had decided I had to buy that TV rather than let one of you guys get your grubby hands on it!

    Im not even sure how good it is, but reduced from €650 im all over that bad boy.

    Ah i did some research while I was in the shop, A well reviewed tv from about 2 years ago, there was complaints about input lag that appears to have been fixed in a firmware update (apparently Tvs have firmware updates now, welcome to the future, me)

    Only thing of any interest there- is the 1.75 wiper blades.......
    They'll hardly shift the TVs or the laptop at those prices- they're incredibly old stock (and the laptop has crap specs).

    hmmm, ex display it would appear. Not happy, was never told that.

    Doesnt seem to be anything up with the TV though so i might hold onto to it, I'll see what its like for a few days

    Unbelievable - the seller seems to have bought 10 Oral B toothbrushes, 3 sets of logitech speakers and the vacuum. Already had an offer of €150 which the seller rejected. Ah, the spirit of Bargain Alerts.

    Tesco Maynooth- awash in cut-price TVs.
    Mostly LGs left- with a 32" @ 149- all the way up to a 42" @ 299
    Some Sonys- @249 and 299 (32" and 40")
    Its really bizarre at the checkouts- every second trolley has a TV in it.

    No shortage of laptops either- look at the specs though-

    Celeron 1.8 / 1Gb RAM / 80Gb HDD/ DVD / 15.6" / Manufacture date July 2007

    Thankfully the manufacture dates are obvious- which may educate some people as to what a good spec looked like 6-7 years ago. Absolutely no shortage of them- and no-one seems to be touching them.

    No specials on any other electronics- aside from BT Wireless phones- they have two models, one @ 9.99 and one @ 14.99- I didn't explore what they were/are, but they have a whole pallet of them

    New delivery of coke and Rice Crispies- also getting demolished, for their Crazy Price bargains.

    The regular discount aisle- has absolutely no bargains of any nature on it- absolutely nothing- which is quite unusual.

    Electronics aisles- nothing discounted. The Microsoft wireless mouse mentioned a few posts up is marked at and scanning @ 39.99. Some cameras are discounted, but they're nothing you'd actually want to buy.

    In short- lots of cut price coke and kelloggs cereal- nothing else of any great interest.

    Oh- they have a non-flashed special on playdoh (if you have kids). 4 large tubs of luminous playdoh for 3.75. If you have kids you may be interested.

    Gardening aisle- has been converted into a back-to-school aisle and only has school clothes. No indication of where the gardening tools are- and 2 different staff members were unable to enlighten me.

    Yea the blades aint bad, but the specs on that laptop are rather crap for the price they're selling it. 2gig ram is shoite

    Plenty of laptops in Clonmel today, not the greatest of specs to be honest but perfect for someone looking for one for college in September or for just browsing and watching films online.

    No- tried there too. No Persil Non-Bio powder or Liquid left. Blank space on the shelves. The 54 wash powder is on special EUR6 (instead of 9.99) and the liquid (something a little shy of 2 litres) is on special @ 3.19 (I think). None of either left.

    Persil have a large stand outside the store and a pretty large gang of students showing off the wonders of their newly formulated liquid (and its latex squidgy ball). Talk about paying for packaging.

    Internally- Robinsons are sponsoring a dance competition for children- all entrants get a small prize. Robin Thicke- Blurred Lines seemed to be on a loop. We avoided it.

    Prosperus scouts are packing bags for 'Aware'- and doing a good job. The number of tills staffed seems to be shrinking by the day- I was asked by two separate managers why I wasn't using the self-scan option. I quite honestly told them-

    1. I have young kids. I couldn't honestly vouch that the shopping at been scanned at all, or in some cases, not double scanned, when leaving.

    2. It seems like a means for reducing staff numbers. I disagree- and think as many locals as possible should have jobs. (The manager smiled at this and asked would I be willing to write in a letter- which I certainly will do).

    Not to mention the dreaded 'unexpected item in packing area' mantra most of the damn machines seem determined to say! I'll give you unexpected - an unexpcted kick in the hard drive! lol

    Could be the affect of staff hols. Lots of staff book time off this time of year. But you should write a letter. They will not ignore it. Last thing they want to do is upset anyone.

    These were sent in from other stores. I know for a fact a lot of these came from Tesco Ballybeg.
