Basically -
You buy 30 @ £2.75 (= £82.50)
3 for £5 = 10 x £5 = £50 so remove £32.50 from the bill
AS WELL AS:
BOGOF = £82.50 / 2 = £41.25 from the bill
£32.50 + £41.25 = £73.75
£82.50 - £73.75 = £8.75

I can't work out the math!!!
Surely 3 for £5 and BOGOF means 6 oranges for £5?
Why is it 6 for £1.75?
offer 1 - you need 2 for buy one get one free
offer 2 - 3 for £5
but both offers work together
so you buy 6
6 = 2 x 3 for £5 and buy 3 get 3 free giving you a total of 6 for a total off £1.75 to pay

Just to clarify - what has happened is that the Tesco deals are being processed separately by the till computer, so it subtracts the deal amounts regardless of the fact that one deal has already been done.
Hence two subtractions.

last week I bought 12 low fat Ambrosia rice's as She wanted them and unaware that there was an offer on them, they came to £8ish and then the offer came off and then another came off so I ended up only paying £2.50ish
