    Unfortunately there was a half price banner obscuring the SEL, but it looked like the SEL was for €330ish. Did take a quick photo but I took it too quick so the section with the obscured SEL is blurred. Sorry!

    I was highlighting it's not really a sale this time but a clearence at very high prices. Also if I was mistaken putting the info on clothing being on sale in Tesco in this thread my mistake but it would be stranger to post it in the groceries thread would it not?

    Well now you've just ruined the whole 'splitting into 2 threads thing' with your existentialist questioning.

    Half-price on most of the cds, dvds and games in Tesco Athlone.

    By the way, two of the three(cds&dvds) I bought were priced incorrectly and I ended up paying €6.50 more than I should have.
    Customer support refunded me the €6.50, does anyone know if their refund policy of 'double the difference' should have applied? Just curious...

    Thanks. The girl seemed almost reluctant to give me the difference, never mind double. And she kept the receipts so not sure if I'd get anywhere with it. I might go into the store tomorrow and see what they say.

    Their customer charter should be up on a big blue coloured notice board behind customer services. The "double the difference" is at the very bottom and if anything like Naas and Newbridge they will have gone out of their way to cover it by piling crâp up in front of it.

    No, I went through the tills. I went back in yesterday and told them the exact time I was in. They retrieved the receipt and gave me the rest of the money so all good :)


    By the way, they also had CFL lightbulbs reduced, I picked up two 11W ones for ~€3.

    No it didn't but I also saw a four pack of rechargable energizers for around €5 (down from €20) can't remember if they were AA or AAA though

    I've seen ancient Sony Ericsson emergency chargers knocking about in a few Tescos for €2.

    Might not seen like a bargain but they come with two Energizer lithium AA batteries so they're worth keeping an eye out for just for the batteries - and sure leave the rest behind!

    I picked up a Byron B304 portable doorbell in Tesco Nenagh for €0.30.

    Attach bell push to front door frame with sticky pad and place the receiver anywhere in the house you like, operating range up to 50m.

    There were lots of bargains in the car care and hardware sections but all sold out in Nenagh, 3 in 1 oil, hand wipes, chamois, combination pliers, screws and nails all reduced to under a €1.

    Got a couple of those last year for similar price. Lasted less than a week. Not sure if dampness gets in around the battery in the bellpush or what.
