    lol - anyone been asked for 1p at the tills???

    So far from 3 vouchers I have been £9, £5 and £3.50 over. I try to make them a little bit over....I dunno, I suppose I feel a bit cheeky. But I am going to be much braver now the limit is £20. My 2 lists for tomorrow is £21.87 and £20.70. :o

    The first time I used a voucher the SA gave me back the voucher and the receipt! No way would I use it again and it went straight in the bin. Half the time the SA has given me back the receipt so now I staple it to the voucher and tell them they have to keep it. I'm a bag of nerves using a voucher, so to try and use it twice, well the stress would probably give me a breakdown!lol.....

    thanks, ive only done one dtd shop and i cant cope with doing it again, i had to get my bf to come with me as i was panicking like i was doing something wrong lol and the time after i done a normal shop they ripped the bottom of my receipt, i will tell her she could get in trouble, i didnt think the voucher would work twice anyway because they would recognise the barcode?

    It's still processing. I hadn't input the receipt details until yesterday despite shopping on Sunday because I didn't want the voucher to expire whilst I was on holiday in April and I'd already reached my limit of £100 for March (was trying to play by the rules :() so now I've missed out as they've said I inputted too late in their voicemail so have to settle for £20 when my dtd is allocated (hopefully will get confirmation tomorrow as no dtd email today).

    Facebook link I noted earlier http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?topic=72&post=295&uid=112463368812803#post295

    Understood. Don't hold it against me if I'm wrong, but I think it is quite likely the cutoff point will be made midday (or even midnight) 24th for purchases - plus you'll be allowed to input them whenever within 28 days of purchase.

    It seems the only legal solution.

    I did a small shop with a voucher which came to 68p to pay I went to pay by card as I had no cash on me the cashier said that the smallest transaction you can do on a debit card is for £1 I was snookered I would have to put all the stuff back then as quick as a flash I said
    "Can I have £10 cash back please"

    Transaction complete :beer:

    Went shopping last nite to use a 40+ voucher & £5 NOTW and £5 C00P one, from on here somewhere, had to run and get another bottle of wine to pay 2p for a trolly full LOL :rotfl:

    PS staff really great took all 3 vouchers no problem
    I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. :)

    It's happened to me a few times when I've been slightly under so what I do is put an extra couple of items in my basket, then when I put my shopping on the conveyor belt I put them at the side, you know, where everyone dumps bits they don't want. Then if I'm under with the voucher I just grab those. Got caught out the first time and grabbed the first thing I could see which was a packet of batteries which I didnt want or need!

    why not just grab a packet of chewing gum or a bar of choc?
  • The first time I used a voucher I was 78p under so I now add up as I go along and then when I am close I grab a milky way or two - only 20p and n/f against asda :D
