    I need to get some cat food but the only food she will eat is the butchers "Classic" cat food. The 6 packs are the same price at Mr A and Mr T. Mr T does a 12 pack which is more economical but Mr A doesn't. Want to get double the difference on some other items - am I better putting the cat food through seperately?
    Oh and thank you all again for all the fun!!

    If Mr A does not sell it i would of thought it would come back N/A so should not be a problem HTH

    I love how Tesco introduced the £20 cap to stop people using the DTD price promise like they were before but from what I have seen the numbers going for it seem to have increased! Plus the AMOUNT of claims must be through the roof now everyone seems to be going every day and doing the £20 DTD. Tesco PR Dept. - useless! :rotfl:

    PS Could they put it down to £10 next? They would be absolutely crucified in the press if they withdrew the promotion altogether but this must have turned into a giant headache for them. Couldn't have happened to a more deserving company! :p

    Just back from the big tescos in my area, used up my last voucher, 32.xx......had no trouble redeeming the voucher, SA called over to verify. She said that starting tomorrow, the cap comes in for 20£ for receipts dated started tomorrow, commented about todays memos stating the new cap and to be careful ;) What amused me was the war and peace she wrote on the receipt, name/store, voucher redeemed etc, the receipt looks like a literacy lesson ;) Even more amusing was the spotty faced till boy I went through, at the end when the SA walked away, he asked how I got this voucher, I said because Tescos claims to be cheaper than ASDA but they aren't so I got a rebate....his face dropped and said 'you mean we aren't cheaper?'...HAHAHA, I looked at my trolly of soda, coffe and cheese and laughed 'not today you aren't'. !!

    I don't understand that :o
    I've still got 2 vouchers for over £20, can I still use them after today?

    Poster means any voucher over £20 must be evidenced by receipt dated before 25th actually, cutoff was 25th

    same as my cat she only likes the classic , fussy thing she is. If the cat food is the same it makes no difference to your DTD so put through at same time, someone mentioned sheba would be worth looking at, not confirmed though

    SIL had a very bad experience with her 2 vouchers on Thursday night in Liverpool.
    The cashier told a supervisor /manager who said they had to confiscate both her receipts and vouchers... £10xx and £4xx. After a lot of embarassment at the till and a big que forming they decided to keep all her receipts and vouchers and told her to call back the next day to see if they could be used...
    She went back next day and one could be used but the other one they marked in big letter on the receipt REVOKED on it and said she couldnt use it..Said it wasnt genuine!!
    I have told her to call HO and she was told to email them back... so I told her to give them say till Tuesday to get a reply before calling HO again...
    Shocking behaviour by Tesco....

    Lucky him! I just sent OH to Tescos this morning to buy another couple of Turner's road with a voucher- he was under strict instructions not to buy anything else, but he couldn't resist buying a couple of memory sticks that were on special offer ( £5 in Tesco, £10 in ASDA)
    He's home now, I am fuming, he's in the dog house!:mad:
    He doesn't understand what he did wrong!

    I've just gone hot and cold reading that. I've come to this quite late and didn't think about it being the overall cost of the shopping, not just the products that are cheaper at Asda. I bought the BOGTF on the Napolina pasta - I might have got away with it - it doesn't appear to be available at Asda. I stupidly bought an Innocent Pot meal for 1/2 price, which will bring my DTD down by £1.49 - although again, it doesn't look like Asda stock them and they're not on MySupermarket.

    I'll know better next time - split the shopping!
