That is quite unpleasant.

However, such situations are not limited to Tesco.

Go in with the wrapping, pork and receipt and speak to the manager and get a complaints form as well.

There was a thread about this the other day, seems lots of us have been having problems, especially with Tesco. :(

Happened to me at another supermarket. I did not want to keep the meat a moment longer than I had to, so I kept the wrapping, binned the product and phoned them up the next day and told them what I had done.

They invited me to come to the store, gave me a replacement product, a heartfelt apology, and refunded double the purchase price.

I was happy with the way they handled it in the end.

14th march? are you sure it wasn't a badly printed 4th?

unless it was vacuum-packed i wouldn't trust raw meat to stay edible until then anyway Confused

I got some chicken from Tesco the other week and it stunk the fridge out.

It still had three days left on the use by date Angry

Defiantly the 14th, it was vacuum packed.

Kids think Sausage for Sunday dinner is cool Hmm
