What has the human race come to - this is worse than a pride of lions fighting over the first meal for months

I'd much rather do without

A Tesco in Southend had mislabeled a TV, 50" Blaupunkt reduced from £400 to £150 but it should have been £250. At least six went out the door before they twigged and bumped them back up and there was a near riot from those in the que with them.

One of my friends got one and said on FB it'd be a fine bedroom TV I said I could think of better things to be spending £150 on for entertainment in the bedroom and his missus agreed with me.. lol

It's quite sickening really. I'm happy to stay away from the idiots and pay a bit more for anything I want and believe me saving some cash would be great. It absolutely amazes me how someone can fight over something that they haven't even bought yet. Sad.
