No Sunday afternoon bargains at Tesco

[violathing]

The store is opening until 8pm now, used to go aroung 3pm and a lot of fresh produce was reduced. would freeze it for meals in week ow it is open later they are not reducing stuff. has anyone else noticed this?

Makes good business sense to me. Try going in later in the day.

Well it would be silly to knock things down when there's 5 hours opening left. But opening hours will return to normal soon.

Why don't you try asking the staff at your local store when they do their big reductions? I have always found that the staff at mine are more than happy to tell me

FWIW, when I was at my Tesco yesterday at around 3.30pm, most things were down to around 50% off, except some bakery goods (2 Eccles cakes for 30p, anyone - yummy!) & some fruit that they clearly had a glut of (at least 10 boxes of nectarines, so a punnet was selling for 20p) & I couldn't see any meaty bargains. I have noticed that they tend to reduce earlier on weekday evenings, at around 7pm instead of 8pm, so I may pop down there tonight with the DSes before their bedtime!

Also, my local store staff have told me in the past that reductions will be greater/more plentiful when the weather is bad so nobody is likely to venture out to the shops, or there is a big sporting event on which everybody will be watching (eg World Cup football), so again not many people will be shopping.

If you have a Sainsbury's, we went to our last Sunday at around 3.30pm & got all sorts of bargains - large pieces of Brie for 25p, organic beef for 99p, sandwiches for the next day's trip to the Olympics for 20p & lots more besides!

HTH

I went to Tesco at 3.30 yesterday (forgetting it wouldn't be the end of their day) and all that was on the yellow sticker shelf was a dubious looking scotch egg. So disappointing!

just got a huge floret of broccolli for 10p big chicken for £2.25 from the CO=op, do prefer co-op but is a lot more expensive
