    Have managed to rush back to this thread after finally managing to tear myself away to complete our Census return. Didn't want a £1k fine to offset all my recent hard work :p

    Certainly before DTD dominated my life I know that Tesco was cheaper than anywhere else for the stuff I buy regularly. Yes I might have nipped to Iceland to buy the odd frozen thing, oxo cubes or milk 'cause they were individually cheaper there, but as a whole Tesco won.

    I think this is because I buy very few branded goods, and although I have tried other supermarkets own or value ranges have never regarded them as highly as Tescos. I'm not a food snob, in fact I quite like a lot of Oaklane stuff. Also I find that my Tesco reduces its fresh stuff by a good %age so I can offten buy better, even if it has a yellow sticker.

    I am having trouble buying my regular stuff now though. It almost breaks my heart to use some of my DTD voucher to buy stuff, not that will be used (as I am picky about what I buy), but stuff that we actually need! ;) How many boxes of magnums/after 8's does the average family 'need' in their freezer?

    I went to Tesco late last night.

    Spent £17.71 including a £1.50 mothers day card with the rest on DTD which meant I got £18.42 back!

    :j

    Weirdly the small mothers day cards were around £3 but they had some huge ones that were only £1.50 so bought one of those, added lots of photos from the holidays etc of the past year inside and sent it off via the post office. :T

  • I haven't seen this posted, but looking for wine (hic) deals - mysupermarket shows A as having Blossom Hill Grenache on 3 4 10.00, at T 3 would be 17.37, dtd 14.74 and cost for 3 bottles 2.63 - could this possibly be correct? - always supposing you can find it in stock?- thanks for any advice/help

    I've got to that stage too. I want another voucher, but i want to buy things we'll use and that i can make a meal out of that are also voucher generators. there aren't that many unfortunately so I am going to do a big normal shop this weekend taking advantage of all the current great offers and be able to feed my family properly!

    I am wondering if this email is a random thing? As I have only used 2 emails, gone over on both (not by much) and used a clubcard most times...but no email for me.

    Are you saying you were over the limit but STILL got a voucher through today? Or did you sybmit your last receipt prior to yesterday?

    I'm curious because I reckon they only starting logging the email limit at the end of the month prior to that, they didn't seem to be taking any notice. I guess they've got to the end of the month and totted all the totals up.
