It’s great that the top comment I saw on your post is saying it looks like it was two labels cut together. That it was a single bottle vs multi pack issue, completely ignoring the per liter pricing that was double on the more card label.
this isn't even the marketing deal where you could "buy more for less" to entice people into buying more than they need, this is just a straight up nothing burger of a "SALE" sign 😭
Same energy as online “deals” that were released at that price in the first place. Is it illegal? Yes, in most places. Does anyone do anything about it? No.
There's an old (probably apocryphal) story of a guy at an early comic book convention that had a bunch of back issues marked 20c each or 4 for a dollar. Most of his sales were 4 for a dollar.

You think that's bad. I was in Morrisons the other day and saw a more card offer on beer. With a more card the beer cost twice as much!
EDIT: I posted about it on the Morrisons sub reedit and you should be able to see it if you check my post history.
I mean...it's called a more card
That is insane
Morrisons have sadly completely lost the plot since the takeover.

Genius.
I didn't understand that comment either.

Ironically it probably works. Our 9th graders can’t even do simple multiplication tables these days.
We’re in for dumb times

Yes but you can combine ANY you know, that’s huge, if you’re only regular you might be tempted to buy two of the same, that’d be silly.
The picture is misleading, the other items on those shelves likely are more expensive and they can be mixed and matched for a deal.
It's not 2 of that particular item for £8. It's any 2 with that label for £8.
So if there are other items included in the offer that cost more than £4 it's still an actual discount.
The curry above is £4.85 per google so indeed.
Pssst, I think your description may be incorrect. /s
Hahaha
