A B&M manager even confirmed the "hidden sale" prices from the scanner function are what you'll pay at the till and revealed the reason why they are sometimes different from what the tag says in store.
Commenting on the TikTok video, another user said: "I’m a B&m manager. The reason things on the shelf are a different price is because the ticket hasn’t been changed yet.
"We get a lot of price changes and some get missed. It will scan through the till."
