Tesco Pizza with 5 Free DVDs promotion

Ouch! That was the most expensive pizza I ever bought, proving there is no such thing as a free lunch (and, if you're not careful, free DVD rental either).
Forgetting to read the small print (well of course I did read it as there's always catches though I don't have a copy - I thought the offer was an unlimited trial duration as long as you didn't go past 5 DVDs) I looked at my statement and found out that I'd been charged £11.47 twice for their DVD service.
It seems you have to cancel after 28 days otherwise you get charged. I have two titles out of the five sat here which I haven't watched (Shaolin Temple 4 is one - oh great!), thinking I had plenty of time to cancel before I sent them back.
I think the pizza cost £2.99 on the shelf - it's now cost me over £26. :eek:
I signed up to their dial-up internet service and would always get notification when the DD was going through. Why couldn't the same happen with their DVD service.
Where should I do my shopping?
