    A man used a Sainsbury's self-checkout glitch to bag 540 cans of beer for almost half the price. <\/p>\n

    Stuart Hardy was chuffed when he spotted a deal on a 10-pack of Peroni when he popped into his local supermarket in Stafford, Staffordshire.<\/p>\n

    A crate of the 330ml cans of Italian lager were meant to cost \u00a311 with a Nectar card. But the 42-year-old claims he got them for \u00a36 instead!<\/p>\n

    Stuart was so shocked he did a double-take and checked his bank account \u2013 before ringing his best mate Dave Hopson, 38, to share the good news.<\/p>\n

    The pair then decided to make the most of the glitch by buying 54 boxes of beer \u2013 540 cans in total \u2013 for just \u00a3324. This was \u00a3270 less than stated in the supermarket promotion.<\/p>\n

    Stuart said: "I just popped in for a couple of beers to top my bar fridge up. Sainsbury\u2019s is usually pretty good but there wasn\u2019t a lot on offer other than 10 cans of Peroni 330ml.<\/p>\n

    \u201dI thought \u2018Oh I\u2019ll buy one as a treat before I went to Asda and see what they had on offer. I took the box of Peroni to the self-checkout, and scanned the beer and it came to \u00a36.<\/p>\n

    \u201dI walked out thinking 'Was that right what I saw', double checked my account in the car park, and it was, so I rang my mate Dave.<\/p>\n

    \u201cHe said he would meet me there and see if it happened again with more. We brought 54 boxes in the end. We left very happy."<\/p>\n

    Stuart is storing the beer in his own home boozer \u2013 and added: \u201dThe best thing about your own bar is the entertaining of friends is so much better. It\u2019s such a good atmosphere and just amazing nights.\u201d<\/p>\n
