Letter: Not every little offer helps at Tesco

Letter: Recently, my wife and I were invited to a barbecue and went into Tesco in Madeley to buy some beer and a bottle of wine to give our host.

Whilst we were looking at what to buy, I noticed some of the promotions. I could buy a pack of beer for £3.50 or two packs for £7.50. Whilst we were laughing about this "offer" I saw another that beggared belief. One bottle of beer was £1.50, but I could buy two bottles for £3.00.

Do Tesco think we can't add up? Or do they think no-one looks at the labels? Or is it a case that Tesco staff can't do simple mathematics? Whatever the answer it gave us a good laugh and taught us to check every so-called offer in the future.
