  • how have the not earned them legitimately? tesco's reckon they're the cheapest & people are proving them wrong! you'd think that after the first day of people submitting receipts that they would change their prices instore to make themselves the cheapest but they haven't :)

    Sorry - I didn't elaborate because it was in my previous post (on a previous page). They have not earned them legitimately by knowingly going over the £100 per month limit.

    Don't get me wrong, I love this promotion, but there are plenty who seem to think it's OK to spend, say £70, claim a voucher for £70 and repeat the same shopping trip ad infinitum. That's not right.

    Right, I know the customer service person has hijacked the thread with a few comments, but...

    I would like to use my voucher (my first voucher I may add) and would like to know is the wine still on offer? And does anyone have a theoretical list of what should work?
    i posted some bits on the page before this ;)

    ME evil? Surely I am entitled to my opinion which would be the same if I worked for Tesco or not. I am just saying that some people are excessively greedy when it comes to something like this therefore spoiling it for other people. Sorry if I have hit a raw nerve but that is not my fault is it?

    Do you challenge your employers greed, the low wages, the land banking, the tax avoidance?

    I did start a list a few pages back but no one paid attention lol!!
    Can we please make a list of what ppl got vouchers for today so weve got an idea what works?

    Do any of you actually think that what you are doing is wrong? I work on CSD at Tesco and have noticed that "coupon woman" is back with a vengance!! I took note of what she had bought/ was buying and EVERY item on a £70 shop was comparable with Asda meaning she would get almost every penny back in voucher form. The difference between now and back then (when she used to total up her shopping to the last penny in fraudulent vouchers) is that back then she actually used to buy things she needed, now she is obsessed with the fact she can get free bottles of Baileys and tubs of Lurpak. I love a bargain myself and am quite tempted to put the odd dtd item in my trolley when doing my big shop but the greed of some people is sure to spoil this for others pretty soon.

    No wonder Tesco are doing this sort of deal to get customers back through the door if this is the attitude of floor staff. :mad:

    Got my voucher through 69.48 for a 61.23 spend with just 1 item n/a (a bar of choc which I knew would be n/a)!!!!!

    I know some ppl are worried to use their voucher without the price checker, but surely we could make a list between us of things that got honoured today and if they are still cheaper on asda they should be ok??


    I got baileys but that is no longer cheaper.
    oatibix- should be ok
    kelloggs start- should be ok
    bag of carrots- should be ok
    nivea cream- should be ok (brill DTD- tesco 5.21 asda 1pound!)
    roasting pan- should be ok (good DTD tesco 10pound each
    asda 2 for 8pound!)

    a nice idea, but still a bit risky.when you submit your receipt and get your voucher (let's say 24 hours), you'll post all the deals here. but by that time, there is a chance that prices will have changed/reverted to nf etc.

    ok, so if there are a couple of products which are n/f then you may be able to get DTD back by emailing tesco CS with an asda link etc.

    but if your shop had about 10 of these items then the tesco CS may not help you at all.

    How are the vouchers not earned legitimately? As far as I have read, they have bought the shopping and have been overcharged, hence the voucher. I think Tesco mean £100 overcharge, so £200 in vouchers, hence the vouchers over £100.
    Are Tesco being fair when they are charging a fortune for wine for a month so that they can put it as half price, when really the half price is the actual proper price?
    What about the Tesco shoppers who are paying the inflated prices whithout even realising it?

    Ha ha - that's creative thinking, I'll give you that, but you're the first person in 128 pages to have come to that conclusion re: the £100. :rotfl:

    And what about those things? If you don't like the price of something, don't buy it. Nasty, evil Mr Tesco isn't forcing you to do so, although he has got you in his shop this week hasn't he!
