    The more people who email the CEOs office the better. No point emailing Philip Clarke because he is passing it on to his staff.

    [EMAIL="Ceo.Customerservice@uk.tesco.com"]Ceo.Customerservice@uk.tesco.com[/EMAIL]

    Make sure you ask about the 'product checker' NOT price checker!!

    Example email, not the best but will do the job!

    Dear Sir/Madam

    Tesco recently started a promotion promising to match or beat Asdas' prices.

    There was a tool on the price checker site called the product checker where prices could be compared between the 2 stores but it was removed at the end of last week.

    Could you please tell me when I can expect the product checker to be made available again?

    If it is not going to be made available again how are Tesco advising their customers to check prices and how will Tesco guarantee they honour what they claim if there is nothing to check it against like product checker?

    Will customers be expected to check prices from Tesco to Asda online and instore?

    Kind Regards

    but in the t&c it says u need your receipt to use ur voucher?

    Yes, you have your receipt from, say, Monday's shop. You get your DTD voucher and go with Monday's receipt and the accompanying voucher on Thursday. You do another shop, hand over Monday's receipt and the voucher and get another receipt (Thursday's receipt). You are entitled to Price Check Thursday's receipt on the price checker and get another DTD voucher to use with it. BUT, by signing Thursday's receipt, they have made it invalid for use with the DTD voucher from Thursday's shop!!!

    Really poor form. I wouldn't mind if they told you this BEFORE you'd paid, but if you're doing a DTD shop and sacrificing BOGOFs etc, then of course you may not want to complete the purchase!

    Does everyone see what I'm getting at??? By marking the receipt AFTER you've paid, they're being very sneaky.

    Frustrating! I've come home from work all geared up to do a price check, and then an online shop, hoping to save some money, and the price comparison site is no longer working. Perhaps too many people have saved too much money!

    Quick question to all the more experienced peeps lol !!!!!

    Done my first shops yesterday, split into 2 different ones, went in and took 1st shop to the car.... then went back in again lol!!

    Just used 3 vouchers today in 3 shops, feeling rather smug.

    Used a £72, a £45 and a £98, plus a £4 off £40 Tesco and 2x £5 off £40 Co-op (brilliantly saw yesterdays NOTW on the till where I was stood and asked if i could buy it, Yes was the reply, so I tore out the coupon from page 22 and handed it over, LOL)

    I am hoping to get back 2 large vouchers (£91 and something like £125) and a smaller one (when I used the £45 on a normal shop, an expecting at least £20 even on that), but am hoping to recycle these vouchers into a large shop, a small shop and a Kindle.

    Todays shopping cost me £5 in cash across all 3 shops, so now have 14 more bottles of wine, 2x baking trays, 2x Nivea creams, 1x Expensive Olay, and tons of normal shopping.


    I absolutely love this game; my wife says I'm obsessed - Yes I am, and your point is???
    I didn't do it, nobody saw me do it, you can't prove a thing! ;)
    Quidco and Topcashback, £4,569
    Shopandscan, £2,840
    Tesco Double The Difference, £2,700
    Thomson EU261/04 Claim, £1,700
    British Airways EU261/04 Claim, EUR1200

    If I order for delivery and they don't have the Wine I ordered and they deliver a different kind. Will I still get the DTD on the original?
    Thanks
