    Hi, I'm not far from Cambridge, could it have been Milton, was it close to the A14. I'm getting quite frustrated. I do well in W'rose and Sainsburys with end of day reductions, but I'm dying to take part in the T's game. I got nervous on the way to Bar hill the other day thinking of DTD and meeting the trouts, but alas I found nothing, not even some chilli nuts. Got all excited :j over a solitary box of koko until it scanned at £4 :eek: so I left them :(

    Sounds like they were in Fulbourn store to me, Milton doesn't have a price checker - very sad that I know T's in such detail :rotfl:

    Finest strawberry tarts, old style in the deeper box with white choc drizzled over the top are back up to £3, luckily scanned it on a price checker before buying it - think T's stock records show the rise in sales of these + the choc puddings so has put the price up!

    Managed 116 CC points from wombled receipts, including one for being a loyal EON customer, aw thanks, but we're with NPower :rotfl:

    Staff didn't know what to do with my price check voucher, needed a supervisor who also didn't know what to do so they got the staff briefing file out and eventually sorted it. Lady on the till said, "Well, she could just cut my signature off and reuse the receipt!" - not in a trouting way, but hey, there's an idea...but it went in the bin, wasn't my receipt in the first place so don't want to push it.

    I've never been asked to provide my receipt with any of my price check coupons. Just as well really as they are all in the recycling long before I get an email back from T's.

    It's to stop the lurkers/lazy people using the search function to search for particular stores and getting all the bargains without contributing and spending time reading the threads.
    Also it stops TESCO searching for glitches/misprices at particular stores and giving them opportunity to correct it sooner rather than later.

    You're a lad! Thanks for this! Never knew why these star (*) were used like!

    Thanks. We call in to the fulbourn one whenever we have hospital appointments. Have to go to Mac D's first or I come out with far more than I intend:rotfl:Found the Strawberry tarts a few wks ago but that was all. went in with a huge list of barcodes and had to keep my reading glasses on till I got outside. Felt a bit conspicuous as I kept checking my list.

    Hi guys :) I know this has been mentioned before but it was like 2 months ago so..... Derma intensive+ premium satsuma body butter 220ml, barcode: 5060185671148 is 25p! it's in a bright orange round tub and it's lovely, like a body shop style body butter. I mention this because I didn't find them when originally posted but now there are quite a lot in the Wa!kden store if anyone is interested. Also in Wa!kden there are Powerforce spotlight halogen lightbulbs, packs of 2, 10p! Found in the reduced bit at the end of the stationary aisle ;)
    Hope this helps someone as I am very grateful for everyone else's hard work :T

    Nice post! I like to stick a cheese sauce through a batch of mashed potato with grated onion, stick it into a pastry base and top with sliced tomatoes and grated cheese. Yummy and so cheap!!! Even cheaper and quicker now if I grab some of these sauce mixes!!! :beer:

    Sounds lovely. Thanks.

    Found a can of Red Lion chili con carne on (allegedly) reduced shelf scanned at £1.99 :eek:. Its like my tesco took these off the shelf when they were a penny and is now clearing them out but there's no gap for them so they're going on the reduced shelf at full price.
