Tesco/Asda Pricechecker finds here (Thread 2)

I'm new to this game. Just done my first list and the price checker is full of N/A.

Example. Dr Pepper cans, Tesco had offer of 2 six-packs for £5. Asda sells individually for 30p, currently 5 for £1 special offer.

So why can't Tesco compare? Even if they compared individually that would be 2 x (5 for £1) + 2=£2.60. vs. £5 = £2.40 DTD= £4.80

Because the Dr Pepper cans that Asda sells individually for 30p, or 5 for £1, are the 150ml mini cans, not the normal 330ml cans.

I did a 'normal' shop the other day, it was badly needed, loads of liquid in my house, booze, comfort, washing liquid, shampoo and conditioner, no food.
I found it hard to not buy the DTD stuff, just stuff we were needing, £110 shop and it came back today £15 cheaper at Tesco.
I have always shopped at Tesco and am glad that it is still coming out on top on a normal shop.

I know most of us are 'massaging' the T&C's to a greater or lesser degree - but what the OP was talking about is nothing to do with the T&C's . I don't think Tesco have ever said in any of their T & C versions that you must not re-print your voucher and use it again in the event that staff forget to cancell your original receipt. They probably wouldn't have bothered to mention it - because nobody in their right mind would even consider doing that! We are doing well enough without resorting to quite such underhand tactics.

It does say on the DTD voucher that this voucher may only be used once. For what its worth I am sticking to the terms and conditions and still getting free products since hoping the scheme will run and run thereby get more in the long run. I personally wouldn't reprint a voucher and use again since I want the scheme to carry on as is.

Which lamb shoulder are you referring to, please, as I can't see anything which would be DTD on their websites?
