    Some people just don't know when their breads buttered.Beggars belief!!:eek:

    I didn't say I was going to report them! I was just commenting! I haven't got time to talk now I'm on my way out. I accept what you say, yes it's great when it works but I can't help feeling it's too risky (for me at least) if they are just going to pick and choose the prices they compare and not actually refer to the Asda website for comparison.

    I can check Asda and buy at Tesco if it's cheaper in Asda - but if Tesco are then going to argue that actually they were cheaper than Asda (with no evidence to back up the claim), then I figure it's safer for me to just go and spend my money in Asda - and that way Tesco lose all the non-DTD shopping I would have done, too.

    I was just saying how upset I am that I feel they are not playing by the rules, kind of thought I might have got a bit of sympathy, didn't expect to get aggro for an innocent little moan. Anyway, have to go out now, running late - this is a rushed post and not well thought out, so please don't anyone take offence!!!

    Anyway, back to these jamie oliver eyetalian snags, are they any good?

    They are nice, well worth the DTD price, wouldnt pay full price for them - (ie asda price) as you only get 6 and they are quite small.

    A lot of people think tescos are losing on this offer.. I doubt it. A few savvy mse people doing it but how much you think they raking it in now :)

    Something tells me that tescos are loving this :)

    Yes, and look at how many of us (the clued up minority) are getting N/A on items that are on sale at Asda and in some cases even on their website! Naughty Tesco...
    If clothing is not even included in the DTD promo dont use a DTD voucher to buy it!

    Or just buy it with a separate voucher on its own?

    I tend to do 'DTD transactions' and 'non-DTD transactions' and never the twain shall meet. :)

    The Lynx Twist revitalise is 4 for £3 at Asda and £2.37 each at Tesco so good for DTD if it works!


    I think you might find this is the smaller bottle you are refferring to...
    It`s nice to be important, but its more important to be nice.
    The world is full of people throwing stones at us. Its what you do with them that counts. Build a wall or build a bridge.

    Without getting into all the DTD issue, you can always just return items to Tesco under the normal guarantee. They have always been good at that.

    I think 'we all' want the best of both worlds. Sorry if I came about a bit harsh. This deal is doing me and many others a great turn.

    Just had an N/A on COURVOISIER VS COGNAC 1 ltr £31.99, but it is still on Asda's web site at £24.97, anyway to challenge mistakes? This should be a DTD of £14.02?

    Thanks
    I think it's the COURVOISIER VSOP COGNAC 0.7lt T £30.99 / A £21.97 that is confirmed, and not the VS 1lt.
    Well, it better be - I bought one an hour ago. :beer:

    The VSOP descriptions are the same on both Tesco and ASDA websites, where the VS descriptions differ.
