    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    i've just received this:

    No results for your Tesco shopping
    Hello,
    Thank you for using Tesco Price Check.
    Sorry, unfortunately we have been unable to find your receipt details, so we cannot show you price check results for your shopping. Please try re-entering your receipt details and we will try again to find them.

    I've already printed and used the voucher this shop was supposedly attached to though! Bizarre!!

    You got your original £20 of Tesco priced / £10 ASDA priced goods to give you a £20 DTD voucher. If wise, you can get another £20 of Tesco priced / £10 ASDA priced goods to give you a £20 DTD voucher. If wise, you can get another £20 of Tesco priced goods and on and on and on.

    There is no reason other than plain laziness or spite to try and reuse the voucher and receipt. You know it's wrong and yet you labour the point. Yes, you can use it again technically however legally you cannot as you've already used it - you know it, the S.A. knows it, the CCTV knows it as does the SA till that's £20 down tonight, so the S.A. will think 'who did I accept a voucher from today' and probably remember you pretty clearly.

    All this adds up to you running the risk of prosecution for the sake of nothing other than laziness or spite in my opinion. And if you're not planning to use it again, why have the conversation that flys in the face of decency?[/QUOTE]


    All Fair and valid points, its hard when behind a screen to say "i wasnt planning on doing this" and have people believe you.

    I was just raising the question, perhaps by hilighting this and having a general consensus it may put others off doing so, which is no bad thing for all

    I wasnt initially enquiring about doing such practice, it was just an observation really. Am sure other people have been in the same situation and put themselves at risk to the above and hopefully will now see why its not worth it.

    I mentioned this a day or so ago - I used a voucher and the SA called a supervisor who told me that they have had a few people reuse the same vouchers so are treating all with caution now - what a shame that some individuals are willing to not follow the rather simple rules of the scheme and are prepared to spoil it for anyone else.....

    They are £6 each in tesco or 2 for £8 and £3 each in Asda, buy ONLY 1 in Tesco and you will get your £6 back so cost £0. Spreadsheet says all varieties, I want to check if anyone has had DTD on the toffee one recently.

    Me too! Can't possibly be bringing back all that shopping (knocking on neighbours door and asking for olay, beans, lamb and deodarant dosen't appeal somehow!)

    Dear Customer,

    As you may know Price Check claims are limited to £100 per household per month as per our terms and conditions. Our records show that you have exceeded this limit and we cannot issue a voucher on this occasion.

    Thank you for your understanding.

    Thank you for letting me know about this, interesting!

    I see what you are saying, but what i am saying is - They gave me my original receipt and my DTD voucher back.

    So that voucher wont be in the till - and wont be sent back to HQ so they will have no recollection of it as it was just processed as a £20.** voucher.

    Hi guys been swimming and just catching up

    Why don't you take the reciept of your shopping and your voucher back to the store and explain what happened-as well as honesty it is also a training issue and the manager should be aware-there may be people less honest than you who might be tempted to reuse the voucher and that would ruin this for the rest of us.

    It will save the cashier who served you getting into trouble, it would be the honest and right thing to do-you know it is:)
