    I have to disagree to an extent (DTD Vodka and DTD diet coke) Everyone who does a 'normal' shop seems to find that Tesco is actually cheaper. We are working the system to find the most expensive items against the cheapest in Asda. Im sure if the deal was the other way around with Mr A doing DTD we could do exactly the same.
    And I have cupboards full of stuff that I wouldnt normally have, and my family are the same.
    Cheers :beer:
    i agree
    alot of offers tesco have on at the moment asda don't
    eg the MASSIVE dolmio pasta sauce jars in tesco ae a bargain at £1 at the moment

    if you could be bothered you could do a DTD shop in asda but they only pay 10% right, what a ridiculous lipservice gesture 10% by asda compared to the tesco's, if they were that confident they were cheaper wouldn't they offer a higher rate of dtd???

    Thinking out loud whilst enjoing a Cornetto and a lovely Twinnings cup of Tea.......

    Maybe we should start a thread with receipes using the best of the DTD purchases, maybe reccommend a tipple to go with it as well, also we could include a price?

    regards

    regarding the twinings tea is it a particular brand thats on offer-sorry been ignoring posts about it and now thought perhaps this is a good time to try it!

    Up until last night yes, my voucher total for March came to £104 including the one I attempted to claim last night

    It seems to me that Tesco have only just implemented the £100 check ie yesterday/today. I was just over the limit a few days ago on one addy - and I was still getting vouchers. It seems that only people who breeched the limit with yesterdays receipt have got the unwanted emails.

    I suspect that the problem today with inputting receipts is a separate untermittent problem due to system overload or somthing similar. The one I did today appeared to be accepted but, until tomorrow, I can't be certain. The system didn't seem to be rejecting only those over the limit straight away. People only seem to get the unwanted emails after T's system tried to process the receipts - Tesco weren't rejecting receipts at the input stage, only at the voucher issue stage.

    So anyone who submitted a receipt today , won't know if its worked until voucher time tomorrow.

    I think the Tetleys is a better deal right now iirc :)

    will edit when i find the correct details

    edit : Tetley Tea bags 160 per Pack 500g T = 3.88 A = 2.00 DTD 3.76 net cost 0.12 ... Credit to orignal posters!!

    I say Tesco found it EASY to make promises it still cannot keep.

    The short answer is "yes" for purposes of DTD but "no" for purposes of JSA as not enough NI contributions were paid in the employment.[/QUOTe

    They say that of any one of about 3 shops is cheaper unless they are 10% cheaper they will give you the difference to 10%, its not bad they've just hedged it - obviously more savvy than Tescos.
