Which play doh was it please? I tried to scan different items of it, but all came on the SEL price.

If you are looking for the 20p play doh it's usually on a hanging strip (although once I have seen them in a box) and has a mini sausage press machine, about 3 or 4 cm long, and 3 mini tubs underneath. Cardboard backed packaging (mainly yellow) with clear plastic front. Sorry, don't have barcode as got mine to give to a fundraising tombola. Not sure there are many left about, but you never know your luck!;)

hi, ive never done a DTD before, im a bit worried as what to say? does your store notice that you regulary come in and get DTD back? thankyou

Don't be worried, It's on the board behind them in CS that they give it to you, so it's their policy and you are'nt doing anything wrong. If you get overcharged tell them and you might be surprised as some stores don't quibble and give it to you without you even asking. If they don't usually a gentle"Shouldnt that be double I get back" works. If you get a problem with it someone on here will always give you advice and help you out. The best thing to do is to try and spread it out over a few stores but CS staff are changed a lot so you often see different ones in the same store. I go for weeks without getting DTD, I'm getting wine glasses for a party at the moment and they know that they are priced wrong but no one changes it and I've told the SA, so I do have to keep getting DTD on them because I want them:rotfl::rotfl:.

Great advice to a newbie going for DTD nikkilala. I got the Barbie school set yesterday, scanned at SEL price of £25 but had half price label stuck on box of £12.50..... Walked towards CS desk staring at receipt and looking somewhat confused.... (a bit of acting going on here:rotfl:) and then pointed to the sticker on the box and price on receipt! Quick call by them up to the manager, then £25 back in my hand without even questioning it, but staff were left to remove stickers from the remaining stock! Neices chrimbo pressie now sorted! That reminds me, must now go back to the original thread and 'thank' the OP.

Many thanks for this - I haven't seen the original post you mentioned. Went to the toy section and there was a Barbie Glam Auto with a 'Half Price Toy Sale' sticker on it and SEL at full price so thought it was worth a try. Chose the doziest-looking cashier I could and chatted while she scanned it through. Went through at full price and no quibble with DTD

Looks like the Half Price Toy Sale is an old promotion so anything with this sticker on it should be a winner!

This was in a store which has recently had a refit and I couldn't see the usual sign up at Customer Services, but a different one about half the size which made no mention of DTD. The price checkers had been removed too - looks like Mr T doesn't want us price-checking any more :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Then popped into my local and walked by a trolley with a long receipt in it - thought I'd take the trolley in and casually checked the receipt - there were two petrol vouchers on the end

A good day!

I got a few shreddies today for the first time!!!!! Printer has been useless as of late. Also got a box of 3 magnums for 22p (used the voucher for a £1 off Walls ice-cream) off the voucher thread.

Not a useless day all in all.

Well worth checking the solar lighting in your store.

I picked up 2 packs of lights that had a hand written sign saying they were £3 per pack. Went through at £7.50 each so DTD of £18.

Also packs of 3 bottle bags for 37p per pack, wrapping paper 25p per role and found a 3.5" photo frame hanging on the "MP3 accessories" end for £1, so worth looking there away from the usual photo frame collection near the cameras.

Had £1 charcoal last night, as well as a selection of stationary.

Have also been able to use £5 off £20 spend morrisons vouchers that my local shop sent in the post, so even more off.

Digital photo frame? If not then what are the digital photo frames I've seem people getting.

Just know about the soup and shreddies me.
The soup is a free Campbells condensed soup voucher is 82p...tescos is 82p but Sainsbury its 59p so some money to spend.
You sign up and they email u the voucher as a PDF file to print off...its does say 20p voucher but when u download the file its a free can..

The HONEY SHREDDIES voucher is found on the first page of the discounts and voucher thtead... voucher is for £1 and its £1 at Tesco at moment..
