If you are buying anything in Londis on Lordship Lane which has a 'special offer/discount' advertised, check to see that you are not charged the full price at the till. I've had at least 5 incidents when I've been overcharged at the till and the special offer e.g. 2 for the price of one has not been recognised. It's not the cashiers fault, they just scan the items in but they have told us that 'it's always happening'!It often happens on the alcohol products and I've just nearly been charged an extra ?2 on teabags. It's happened to friends of mine too.

Ooh I've noticed that too. Thought I had misread something and didnt bother to point anything out.

Always amazes me that the staff don't pick up on this too. I mean are they not aware of special offers and such? Tut tut.

I have many views on that place but I will not divert the topic of this thread. Good call minitoots for bringing this to others attention (tu)

But isn't this following a similar pattern to events described elsewhere on here concerning Somerfield and Sainsbury's?


I doubt it's a conspiracy - scanning technology is imprecise enough to have this happen as often as not. Well... not as often as THAT but enough to make people suspicious

I don't think it's related to the precision of scanning technology. More likely simply that an offer has been displayed on the shelves, but not entered into the system. I very much doubt it's intentional, just make sure you always check your receipt. As SMG says, plenty of people have complained about the same thing happening in other stores.
yes - this has happened to me twice now. They are doing offers on the wine and I was nearly charged full price for a bottle of red last night. You have to actually point out to them that it's on offer. Best thing to do is to be vigilant when they ring up the amount - as Jeremy says, they haven't been entered into the system.

If grot mags were areas then Razzle would be the Peckham to Penthouse's East Dulwich.

In Australia, you have to be given the item for free if you are mischarged. yes, the law. Can you imagine that coming in here. Somerfield would be out of business for one. I was in there the other day and was overcharged 6.00 for 2 pizza's that were on special. Not only were they wrong, the amount I was charged was more than the original.


:((( grrrr

    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
    • Was anyone else disturbed last night/early hours this morning by the party going on in someone’s garden on Crystal Palace road. Can’t see what house exactly but it’s around number 43 - 41… it was happening quite frequently last year. Seems it’s starting again! Very inconsiderate.
