I just wanted to know how many do and whether they make use of the policy that if they overcharge you they refund you and give you the product?

The policy is:
After discussing with my accountant (GF) we have used that policy once - apparently. Got charged more at the counter than the price on the shelf so we got a refund and the item for free.
Google spell check is fantastic BTW.

i shop in tesco, i dont get anything for nothing 
somthing that dos my head in is that they dont reduce stuff thats going out of date by much, i go in 10 minuets before its out of date an it still too much i walk around and it goes out of date, they then have loads of out of date stuff on thier shelves

Yeah they do obey it. Went in one week to get some Curry Paste, was 88p. Following week, was £1.40. Usually don't notice it but for some reason I still had the receipts. Double checked both jars, identical. So went back in, grumbled about hike in price although didn't check the shelf price but they gave me £1.40 back!

Dave, basically I could make it so that you could get lots of free items (especially meat () cheese etc.) but also CDs etc.
Tesco HATE people using the policy so you have to be quite confident to go and use it. Works especially well in tescos with scanners so you can check the price before going to the till. If you want to read the threads on it:

Actual items you can save on (obviously ignore all but the last pages!)

Slightly off topic but I once got Tescos to pay me to take stuff away
They had packs rolls that were something like 60p each or 2 for £1. The way they worked it out on the computer is one roll = 60p, one roll = 60p, then it shows up as *multisaver* and takes off the 20p.
I found these rolls in the reduced section at the end of the day, they were marked down to 5p. So the till went one roll = 5p, one roll = 5p and *multisaver* -20p. So they opened the till and gave me 10p to take away the rolls
Every little helps

Whenever that has happened to me they said it's not policy to give away money but I can have the products for free.

bit i liek best about asda that allways makes me laugh is that when you go in they have 2 trolleys of shopping identical stuff one bought at asda one at tescos and they have added it up and asda is allways few quid cheaper but best bit is they have board saying they used tescos online to do the checking

Their policy not to give away money? Well then they should have a policy to mark things up properly. Anyway it worked for me, they payed me the money because the reciept came to -10p. I still have it at home.

never heard of this policy, but a customer is always right

Yeah, they do have tis, also, if a label isn't clear, they'll give you your money back.
Also reduced items combined with multisavers can give rather impressive savings, I once bought a weeks worth of ready meals for a quid.
The date was up, but freezers are your friend!
