I can't believe people actually packed up all their shopping and took it back in the hour that they changed the vouchers. I personally hate going into supermarkets and avoid them as much as possible. Made the first trip into one is months on Friday night to give the dtd a go, got a voucher for £46.00 which I will use to stock up on things that are on bogof ie washing up liquid etc and hand my voucher to the delivery driver when he delivers my shopping on Saturday. Never trust Tesco's so my advice would be not to spend in the hope of receiving something back especially if you can't afford to. I personally was amazed at how little I got for a £50.00 original spend.

I find it interesting that the original Ts & Cs only said they have the right to withdraw the offer at any time and yet they have altered them now to also say they have the right to alter them at any time - I don't know anything about legalities etc but adding that as an alteration (when alterations aren't already allowed) seems wrong to me

I guess they could argue that they withdrew the original price check offer momentarily before replacing it with a brand new one which had different conditions but its all starting to sound a bit daft

I think they simply mean they have the right to alter them at any time - from then onwards. Fair enough. As before, they cannot, and as far as I can tell are not trying to (the midday one hour madness was probably more of an IT error than deliberate), change the T&Cs retrospectively.

If you bought while the limit was £100, you can get a DTD voucher for up to £100, if you bought afterwards, it's £20. I agree that they should have changed the T&Cs at midnight, but legally they were within their rights.

If you have bought a large amount in anticipation of a large DTD voucher, you should get it if the shop was before the T&Cs changed; if after, the best thing is probably to take them back, call them a few names, and never go back there again...

A counterfeit is an imitation, usually one that is made with the intent of fraudulently passing it off as genuine. Counterfeit products are often produced with the intent to take advantage of the superior value of the imitated product. The word counterfeit frequently describes both the forgeries of currency and documents, as well as the imitations of works of art, clothing, software, pharmaceuticals, watches, electronics and company logos and brands. In the case of goods, it results in patent infringement or trademark infringement. Additionally, it is fairly common in big cities for would-be criminals to sell counterfeit illegal drugs, such as a bag of pure baking soda sold as cocaine or heroin, or a bag of oregano sold as marijuana. This takes advantage of the extremely high prices of illicit drugs and the relatively low prices of common materials such as baking soda and oregano, as well as taking advantage of the similarity in appearances that certain house-hold items share with certain illicit drugs.

Tell me how you are not counterfeiting the real voucher

I'm correcting the voucher to the level the previous page tells me i am entitled to which is within the limit set out in the terms and conditions at the time of submission, Tesco are the ones committing fraud..

also for the record wiki isn't really the best place to use when arguing about legal technicalities.

What an ehausting afternoon this has been! We rushed to spend our vouchers just in case they limited them all to £20 and now have a miscellaneous collection of booze and nowhere to put it. Perhaps we should have a party to celebrate our victory!

But remember, no dtd vouchers will be issued in future for more than £20 so the fun is over and I think I'm going to get my life back. still, it sure was fun while it lasted!

I just redeemed my first voucher for £52 with no trouble, in fact, the young lad asked me if he had to scan it! No probs at all! I didnt do another dtd shop, I had a funny feeling Tesco would be capping it. So £50 food shop for free and some linen trousers too I've got another voucher from last week for £37, can i use this on fuel?

Here's the changes between the T&Cs on 18 March and today (formatting/numbering a bit squiffy but the wording is all there) - blue is additions and red is deletions.

The Tesco Price Check Terms and Conditions


Price Check Comparisons

1. Price comparisons for in-store purchases are based on what the customer actually buys and the date of purchase or delivery. This includes price reductions and promotions (such as "half price" and "buy one get one free") but not store or category wide promotions such as “buy 6 bottles of wine and get 5% off” or linksave promotions (such as "buy cheese and get crackers free"). These are excluded as it is difficult to make fair comparisons. Products that are purchased on a "reduced to clear" basis will be compared at the price paid at till.
2. Price comparisons for orders made online are based on what the customer received and paid for and the delivery date.
3. Price data used for the Tesco Price Check is obtained from daily web scans of the Asda Home Shopping site.
4. If prices are found to be different across the website postcodes sampled, we have used the most commonly occurring price.

5. All comparable grocery shopping is included in the Tesco Price Check (see paragraphs 6 and 7 below).

1. 6. Only branded grocery products that are identical or very similar own label grocery equivalents are included and compared. For own label products to be included we have tried to ensure the equivalent own label product meets the same needs or is intended for the same purpose.
2. 7. For example, we may:
   1. 1. Identify the key characteristics of the products including flavour, and whether it is organic, Fairtrade, low fat, or eco-friendly ensuring that they are not matched in a way that gives any retailer an artificial advantage.
   2. 2. Where products differ in size, weight or volume, ensure that this difference does not favour one retailer over another.
   3. 3. Compare goods where there is no more than a 10% difference in size, weight, or volume.
3. Every attempt is made to match every possible Grocery product. However there are rare occasions where some products are not immediately matched or matching is not possible (for example new products, or products recently changing in pack size). The Frequently Asked Questions give some examples of why products may not be matched.
4. No correspondence will be entered into and no refunds will be given for products not being matched on Price Check.
5. 8. The Tesco Price Check is made against comparable grocery shopping only, as defined above. It does not include any non-grocery categories whether available in store or online or any in store concessions.

3. 3. All prices obtained for Asda are believed to be correct. On rare occasions however, due to the number of prices being checked, there may be some inaccuracies.
4. 4. For a comparison to be made, your shop must contain at least 1 comparable grocery product.
5. 5. The difference in price shown between the comparable grocery products in your shopping at Tesco and the equivalent shopping at Asda will be the total price for all comparable products in the basket.
6. 6. Only Tesco Extra, Superstore and Metro formats are included. Products purchased in an Express, Petrol Filling Station or Homeplus store are not included in the Tesco Price Check.
7. 7. Valid email addresses are required so that we can inform you of the results of the comparison. Tesco are not liable for an incorrect entry of email addresses.

If you want to do it then that's up to you, it sounds like you are trying to justify it to yourself rather than us which suggests to me you know it's wrong, otherwise you would have just done it without a mention on here.
