Tesco - word of advice

I went to Tesco's website to look at their sofas. Saw one I liked but it was impossible to tell what the colours/fabrics would look like so I took a trip to our local massive Tesco which has some furniture. Sure enough the one I liked was there, so I looked through the swatches and chose one I liked and ordered it instore.Cost £400 and will take six weeks or so to get here. This all happened last week.
Last night I was browsing their website and noticed the same sofa online was £345. I phoned the customer helpline to ask if it was exactly the same sofa and if the price difference was a mistake and a very helpful lady said yes it was the same sofa, and often they sell the same goods ( mainly furniture and electrical items) cheaper online.She said it would be fine just to cancel my order in the store, and reorder online!
So there you go. If you see a big item in Tesco you want to buy, check out the online price as it may save you quite a bit.
