    I also noticed today that my page with the voucher said at the top 'PRINTED BY ***** *****' so every one I have printed at work (the majority) and the ones for hubby, daughter, and neighbour and cousin have my name on them!!!!
    New ones will be cut to size : )

    Edited to say I really have been printing out vouchers for others in case I get accused of doing them in other peoples names.
    Love your Mum, you'll never get another one when she's gone.

    can't belive I have been here nearly all day and still have to catch up

    Me too! whizzed the hoover round quick, threw some washing in and zipped out an hour ago to tesco.

    I did notice that a lot of SEL were missing. None on the Thornton's eggs, Razor some of the pizza's as well.

    Good job I had been on here all day so I knew the prices from memory!:beer:

    Anyone been shopping in St Stephen's Extra, in Hull, pinching all the lamb racks? GRRR - own up!


    I don't think they do them! I've never ever found even a SEL for them, nor at the Hall Rd one. We're not posh enough round here. ;)
  • Good job I didn't get round to inputting that last receipt last night by the sounds of things. At least some of you are actually getting emails from Tescos though, even if they are "you're over your limit". I haven't had an email from them / voucher or anything for 2 weeks now (sorry, got 1!). I always have to re-input my receipt to see whether it has come up or not yet with the voucher.

    Hi guys can I just ask any of you that are doing 3 and 4 shops a day, how are you doing it, put them through seperate? keep going out of store? get others to put them through? I want to do this as I work full time and cant go through the week but i'm a wimp!! Just made another email address so I can run 4 at a time now i.e £20 voucher x 4 emails for 4 weekends all come to £80 within the month!!

    I have been doing a lot of thinking this evening, mainly due to Hardys Crest!!! I know this point has been laboured already but how can Mr T advertise that if they are not cheaper than Asda they will give you Double the Difference and then cap it at any level???
    Surely this is misrepresentation, if they are not cheaper they should give Double the Difference regardless of the amount, as per all of their advertising. I can't understand why Mr A hasn't jumped all over this, especially at the start of the promotion where the cap per voucher was £100 and then £100 limit per month.
    If somebody was having a family dinner and bought 6 bottles of Hardys Crest & 2 bottles of Hiedseick blue top champagne from Tesco (not an impossibilty, as I tend to do this at Christmas), their policy states that they could only claim £100 per month and used to state a maximum of £100 per voucher, so the price guarantee would therefore not apply on their usual monthly shop.
    They then change the policy to a max of £20 per voucher i.e. £20 per shop, from what I have learnt during this promotion I am certain that on a weekly shop I could save at least £20 per week by shopping at Asda, therefore their policy changes make this promotion not accessible to ordinary families (due to the £20 voucher cap), so I don't understand how they are getting away with advertising this as a price guarantee. If I was Mr A, I would have my staff, customers, friends and anyone I walked past in the street writing to the papers and making a spectacle of the debarcle of the Mr T campaign.
    I would also just like to point out that I have had a good run at this campaign and I am overjoyed by what was achieved before my vouchers were refused, so I am not at all bitter about any of what has gone on. But I do feel that if anything was to come out of this, it should be Mr T lowering his prices but due to the cap in place, no prices are going to be lowered on a permanent basis. Therefore as far as I am concerned, the moral of the story is.......shop at Asda!

    Good job I had been on here all day so I knew the prices from memory!:beer:
    i know i think us regulars don't need a spreadsheet to be honest, the prices are ingrained into my memory.....just need to be vigilant and keep an eye on prices in asda as well as tesco sel's , someof the offers been going on so long (eg comfort and vanish)not been checking before i've been out to buy them again, v naughty:D
