Plenty of posts on here attacking Tesco staff and yet you chose to argue with one of the posters who defend the staff for snapping up bargains.

As you are 26 years in the company and it's not a dead end job then i assume you are now in senior managment :rolleyes:

To stay on topic, none of these bargains are in Galway!

The exernal hard drive is/was

What on earth makes you think 26 years with a company entitles anyone to a senior management position? Any job you can hold for 26 years is a pretty good one IMO.

On topic, these bargains are spread around the country, Tesco Drogheda has Tom Toms at €50, lots of cameras at half price, SD cards ranging in size from 4gb €5 to 8gh at €8, lots of energy saver bulbs for €1 and great prices on Duracell batteries.

Vojera

Clarehall had about three Panasonic DMP-BD75 blu ray players left for €50 when I was there an hour ago (unless there's more out the back). I decided not to pick one up myself since making the dvd part region-free isn't as straightforward as other players.

There was also a big bucket as you go through the barriers filled with different printer inks, priced from 5 cent to €1 but you'll have to be prepared to root around.

No sign of USB sticks or hard drives.

Also, some cheap enough washing machines (a very small one for €100 and a larger one for about €160, both Tesco own-brand as far as I could see). They were in the wide aisle on the right after the cards and stationery.

I am not very technical but is this an external hard drive I could use for storing photos? They had a few in my tesco but marked at 119€

Yes it is, they were marked up that price in my tesco too but once scanned in they came up 30e which is a bargain:)

I was looking for one or two of these but every Tesco I was in in Waterford had them at 25/30 euro. dead handy for the sat-nav and camera

voodoochile

Anyone know any store with stocks of the 30 euro hard drives or Sennheiser wireless headphones left? Was in Drogheda and Balbriggan today but there was nothing left....

Clarehall have a load of TVs in a basket at the front of the store. I got the display model of the 42inch Sony Bravia for €150 though it came without a remote or the base stand,

Did anyone buy one and get a base that they won't use? I would buy it if you did

how long ago were you there?
i don't suppose you'd be willing to hold on to a 42" sony while i race up there?

davehey79

Was just on Longford and very little on display there is one Toshiba 32HL933B up on the highest shelf and no one around to ask as to the price. All blu ray players scanning at shelf price of between 69 and 100. Loads of €5 8gb ads disk USB sticks. And the Technika 3D Blu Ray player that I think someone mentioned as being €25 in another Tesco is shelf priced at €109 but scanning at €50

Kildare2005

No TV's in Dundrum Last night anyway...
None in Merrion Tesco either, but then again don't know if they have tv's there usually anyway.

There were Sony and Toshiba BluRay players at Balybrack this morning on special .

Interestingly I picked up something today in Tesco Waterford that was marked over €120 and when I scanned, it read €25.
I went to the till and the assistant said "they are great value" before she even scanned it?????? Which meant she knew they were €25.
Also found a 2tb buffalo drive but it scanned at €189

Sorry mate, I was over in airside when I sent that and was on my way to Monaghan. I took the last 42 but I think the 51 was €250

not saying as I am on lookout for a second one

Its nearly worth pre-scanning half the shop at this stage as they are not indicating what is reduced.

calex71

Spotted some 200mbps Homeplug Adaptors in Tesco Drogheda just there for €20 down from €47 haven't used those ones myself but have used some others and found them great for black spots in wifi coverage in the house.

Oh and my mum picked up 3 pack of F&F branded ties last night €6 scanned at 50c !!!!!!!

Give us the exact price we can all start scanning;)

okidoki987

Tallaght no longer have scanners on the shop floor!
Asked an assistant why and answer was "because it's causing havoc
with the tills".

scanner in Greystones doesn't work i've tried it a few times in the last few weeks

BogManInc

I've been trying to get a Buffalo 2TB HD since Stephens day and I keep getting told that they don't have them, they never had them, or they don't know anything about the offer. Since heard that others managed to get them in the same stores I was trying after they told me they didn't have them.

Long shot here, but on the off chance anyone has picked up an extra one of these they don't want, I'd love to buy one along with any extra costs!

Or if anyone knows what stores have them, please let me know.

Thanks and happy bargain hunting

Lillibeth

Well so far I have managed to pick up a Sony BluRay player for €30, Buffalo hdd for €30, Sony Bravia 32" TV for €150, and a Phillips Micro Music system for €30 ( these are priced €179 in Harvey Norman and on sale there for €99) and plenty of AA duracell batteries for €1........Not 1 of these items was marked reduced in store.They were all in their regular places and it was a case of scan and see. Delighted with my bargins!!

Went to the greystones Tesco today, asked for the handheld scanner so that I could see what was reduced as there was not one single yellow reduced tag on anything in the electrical department, two different members of staff very smartly told us that no such thing exists, although I remember using one there before. So, as nothing was marked as reduced, we decided to get a trolley and put every brand of blue ray player (there were about 6) they had into it. The only one reduced was the Toshiba without wifi, so got that for 35 (it was the last one and priced at 99 on the shelf iirc). Grabbed one of the buffalo 2tb and it scanned at around 30 but box was empty and had no barcode so went to customer care with the shelf stub, your man there was all huffy that we had taken the stub off the shelf(how dare we!), and he said there were none in stock as they were only supplied with two.... hmmm... anyway, returned the stub to the shelf and left. They're all aware of what's going on and I got the feeling were unamused at us trying to fetch a bargain or two. Never had problems with Tesco staff before today. Happy we managed to bag the blue ray player at least.

If anyone spots these elsewhere, let me know, especially Dublin based. Used by scouts a lot. Bought some in Halfords Newry recently for gbp4 each.
Don't know why they are so cheap in Tesco.

That would be nice if the store had a scanner but mine doesn't .
It has to be the worst Tesco store in Ireland ,never any deals.

little man disorder

Update been around Tesco's stores in Waterford there is some 4gb and 8gb SD cards in nearly all Tesco's in Waterford for 9/10 euro but none of the 32gb are on sale at least the ones I scanned which was just about all of them.
No Dell laptops in any store just Fujitsu laptops scanning in at 330e.
No Buffalo 320gb hdd for 6e (I did not find them anyway.)
There is some Samsung cameras 50e, 1TB portable Hitachi drive 35e and other deals in Tesco Tramore behind customer service desk.

These are marked with a yellow sticker of €100 in Tesco ardkeen in Waterford this morning?? This happened to someone else here as well for the buffallo hdd it was reduced in my store but not in there's.

I did not see them in the other Tesco's in Waterford but I am a bit blind this morning so don't take my word for it.
