Tesco £3 meal deal price glitch which applies discount twice allows customers to walk away with 4p bargain
and live on Freeview channel 276
Shoppers at Tesco have been posting pictures of the bargains they have been snatching up inside the supermarket, after a price glitch at the checkouts has given them £3 meal deals for as little as 4p.
A technical error at the tills seems to be applying the discount to the three items – which includes a sandwich, snack and a drink – twice and making the lunchtime deal drastically cheaper.

The shopper said in a tweet: “@Tesco Every little helps 'n all that, but I'm sure the meal deal discount coming off twice is a glitch rather than you guys 'helping'. Don't say no one told you . @tesconews #tesco #EveryLittleHelps #ButThatsAlotOfHelp #BeardosMedia”

"I want a Tesco Meal Deal for 4p.”

Ben’s tuna sandwich, monster drink and monster munch crisps should have set him back £4.38 but the glitch almost cut the price of the deal in half.
