    Had to bump up the previous thread re Tesco Beer...

    Was mulling over the 12 cans of Budweiser for €15 earlier and the good man told me they are now down to 12 cans for €10!!! - could not believe it so bought 3 x packs. 36 cans for €30..

    This was in Tesco Dundrum and was lots there.

    Before anyone asks, these are 500ml cans :D hiccup...

    I might be wrong, but don't Tesco have a policy of giving items to you for free if they're mispriced? You could have gotten free beer if so!

    Either way, definite bargain - depending on the type of beer we're talking about of course.

    How were they mispriced?

    You get the item free if you are charged a higher price than the one on the sel.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,092 ✭✭✭paddydriver


    Scanned as €10 - he was in process of marking them down. Don't worry - if they scanned as €15 I would have been a happy, and drunk, person.

    Sorry - didn't check other brands; but likely others may be marked down too.

    I have never gotten cans of Bud for that price!

    Because the price shown was not the price of the item.

    Like I said, I might be wrong. From what you're saying it sounds like the misprice doesn't apply to items lowered in price. Makes sense - would have been quite cheeky if it did, I admit!

    You never mentioned they were Bud! Pretty good price alright.

    They also have 8 cans (500ml) cans of draught Guiness for €10


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,157 ✭✭✭ciano1


    Wait, so is this the actual price or was it actually a misprice??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,092 ✭✭✭paddydriver


    Thats the marked price now - 12 x 500ml cans of Budweiser for €10. Anyone familiar with Tesco Dundrum: the pallets at very end of main aisle were still marked €15 but down the aisles it was marked €10 and it scanned as €10. Guy was in process of marking down the pallets at back wall.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,438 ✭✭✭danois


    just had a look on the tesco site and it says that the 300ml are reduced to 10 so might be just a mistake he might of marked the wrong one down.

    has anyone seen them anywhere else at that price??

    Yup... The 330ml ones are marked as €10 and the 500ml are marked as €15
    Brought 24 500ml to the till and paid €20 for the lot :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 238 ✭✭tippguy


    tesco made a mistake in the daily star ad yesterday and advertised 500ml cans 12 pack for €10 when they ment to do 330ml x 12 for €10...the fine print on this advert shows budweiser as €2.52 a litre which equaits back to 330ml cans. so it proves it WAS A MAJOR COCK UP!! but i was in 2 tescos in cork today and both had 500ml cans scanning at €10!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,438 ✭✭✭danois


    they are not 10 in bray they are 15


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 620 ✭✭✭neonitrix


    the 12 500ml cans are scanning at €15 in portlaoise so its really store specific.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,541 ✭✭✭Zonda999


    Got this offer today in Tesco Wilton, Cork. There were only 4 left after i was done there though! :D That was a few hours ago though"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,981 ✭✭✭mp3ireland2


    No €10 in tesco longford.... €15 for 12 500ml heiniken... or €14.99 for 12 330ml cans of same!

    Had the 12 big cans, till i saw the miller bottles 20 for €15 so did the math and took these instead!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,092 ✭✭✭paddydriver

    Cheers Paddy, just took 5 trays off their hands. 120 x 500ml cans for 100€. Definitely a steal. There was only 3 left but he was expecting delivery of 70 trays at midday. He seemed pretty sure that they would be the same price. ;)

    Just to confirm, this is just bud at this price? no heiniken or anything?

    Hehe yep they do, I got a free crate miller off them as they where on sale for 15 and they charged me 20... Then some girl says ''ahh its a different box we cant give you it free'' but then another girl just gave me it because it's there policy..
