Sorry but how did you get $30 dtd from.bo.jangles wrote: »Lindt Lindor boxes of chocolates, SEL says £3.91 each or 2 for £3 saving £4.82, so I bought 10 boxes, however when scanning only £1.82 was deducted per pair, so with DTD I got £30 back. :T
They immediately rmeoved the SEL for the Chatham store where I was, however they may still be elsewhere.

Surely its 10*1.82=18.20
offer is 2 for $3 so should be charged $15
Therefore a dtd of $6.40
Or did you get the difference between the scan and the single item sel price?0 -
OP is correct and amazingly so were CS!
Should have been 2 for £3 but charged @ 2 for £6
difference = £3 for 2 boxes
DtD = £6 X 5 lots of 2 boxes = £30 :j
Guess where I'm going on my way to work?!0 -
£4.82 per pair should have been deducted, but only £1.82 per pair was deducted.
OP bought 5 pairs of box chocs and therefore was shortchanged by £3 per pair.
DTD= £6 per pair.
£6 x 5 = £30.

Doh.
I mis-read the initial post as scanning at $1.82,hence my confusion.

I agree the debate should finish on here (I should really have started it elsewhere but did not realise this was a strict threadWell, that should finish this debate on this thread(as its a no chat thread...lol)........Theres a thread somewehere where we discussed the morals of RnR(which will be the same morals as you mention)..........or there was a year or two ago............its a good read if you can find it....
but "each to his own"..............and i know where my "own" is........
its fun, its very profitable, and it hurts no one.......except the one we intend it to hurt....(albeit, a drop in the ocean)
Links to old ethics discussions.....

). As for hurting noone well I don't agree but like we said, we all come from a different stance. Might look at the links when I have some time (hmmmm with a nealry 2 yr old that would be, em, never lol). Ermutigung wirkt immer besser als Verurteilung.

New Sel says 50p per kg, 50p per lb and 50p each . Don't know whether any of you experts can get dtd on this . I failed as excuse was she couldn't weigh them to price item. They scan each barcoded tomato so charged 50p each0

Thanks to bo.jangles, I got some of the 200g packs of Lindt Chocolate Truffles today.
As posted above, there are 3 varieties listed on the SEL. Below is a picture of the the milk chocolate version. The assorted version looks the same, except the pack is gold. I found the SEL in the Easter special section, but there was only one pack above it. Happily, there were more in the main chocolates section, so I got 6 packs and DTD of £18 no problem.
