    I haven't reached my £100 limit for April but am close - but I had my first DTD voucher issued on 31 March for a shop which I had done on 30 March, which I spent on 1 April. I had not counted that in the £100 as I thought that would count as March. I wonder if that is what the problem is.

    Could be - Im not sure if its when you spend or receive them but I think its when you submit the receipt - Ive had to sort a couple of email addresses because Ive spread the joy and my Nan wants in and my lazy Dad too - but I thought Id be wise to that and put Nan's ones from last week (31/3) down to experience and gave her two of mine to choose what else was for this week to compensate - Ive still emailed Philip Clarke though - CEO - as nowhere does it say one email address per household -
    i did Dads on different email addy but they've been in since Monday and nothing-
    It will be another email if they dont come -
    If they really want to track they need to come up with more than email address or specify in T&C needs to be one email address each household or else they cant justify via that method -
    However, getting someone to actually do something is CS/CEO office is a different matter - I dont suppose they care if one person says send me my vouchers or I wont shop with you again! LOL!

    Got to admit am now a bit fed up with repeatedly buying the same old things, just to keep level of voucher up.

    I have 7 or 8 Tesco's within 5 miles of me, and only 1 seems to stock the lamb, and the bloody shelf was empty tonight, well fed up.

    I really wanted to stock up on this as love it, and only have 1 pack left now.

    Anyone seen stock in the Manchester area?

    Only Gorton!

    After reading the forum last night I decided that this is getting stupid and there is no way I am going to chance getting banned from Tesco (and I probably should be) so that was that.
    Got up today, didnt look at the forum, went to work, with no detour to Tescos.
    Lasted till 10.45am. But I was good, I spent cash, got 4 racks of lamb in two lots. OMG how excited am I at this stroke of luck????
    Went back at 4.30, two bags of shopping, no nerves left in my body by now.
    So tonight I have hubby primed, gave him 4 shopping lists, all small, all easy. It took him an hour to leave home, kept coming back to see packets, labels, prices etc. Cant wait to see what he comes back with : )


    Glad we arent the only ones - Im doing shops for everyman and his dog!

    LAMB - Only place I've seen it is in Gorton Extra, they didn't have any in Failsworth last week. btw staff in both are lovely and know exactly what they're doing with the vouchers

    Nah tried there yesterday, drew blank.

    Think Extra's are my best bet, might try the big one off the M60 nr Stockport.
    I didn't do it, nobody saw me do it, you can't prove a thing! ;)

    my boys have started having chicken rippa dippas in their pack lunch :) they've said to me they want to have them in their pack lunch all the time but i've told them they can only have them while they cost me 1p as i'm not paying £1.99 for them!:rotfl:
    lol, my little boy loves the fact that he has a fruit shoot, pack of mini jaffa cakes, cheese string in his packed lunch - wondering where I can fit the rack of lamb though;)

    my daughter was with me for the first time doing a dtd shop, she was gob smacked that i paid £2 for 4 boxes of roses and an easter egg, she walked out of the shop saying "how did you get all that for £2 mummy?" :o must work on teaching her to be discrete!
    she is over the moon tonight though as i've told her she can give all 3 of her best friends easter eggs (tresure ones) this year!!:D

    I am getting a bit nervous as DH and I have been in Tesco everyday since sunday!
    So, mum got her 2nd £20 voucher and wanted me to go and spend it for her. I managed 3x Lamb racks which covered the voucher and a little on top, but I didn't want to seem too suspicious so my actual DTD would work out a few quid over the £20 max.
    I, personally, have braved the finest Corn Fed chicken and will report back when I get the results but fingers crossed it will work and give us a bit of variety with our meats.

    DH has been using his email and I used mine for receipts but obviously have the same clubcard address etc. Will this cause any confusion? I am not intending on defrauding/abusing the system, I just want to know if they can tell on their system when our household will reach our limit as I don't want them to later on tell me that we have been DTD'd too much. It would make it easier for us if there was a sort of linked account to be able to tell what we have saved and claimed so far this month.

    Do any of you think that Mr T will start banning some users for abusing the system by ONLY buying DTD shopping and submitting them?


    Someone has asked CS if they could use the Pricecheck voucher to buy a shop then submit receipt again and they had an email back saying yes they could submit receipt obtained by paying with PC voucher again - so dont see how they can without putting in T&C's - they will have to track via a better method than email though - how can you say one per household but then claim people arent buying for friends/family when that is very possible and people on here are doing that.....

    I haven't been there yet, feel like I've been everywhere else though.

    Let me know how you get on, I might pop in on Saturday to see if you've left any

    Edit: Gorton tend to get theirs in at weekend, I've never found it if I've gone there mid week but have done last 2 saturdays. Must be a weekend thing

    The kinder surprise is no longer showing on the Tesco web site.


    What matters is it shows on the asda website, they can hardly say they dont sell something if its on your receipt ;)

    obviously it means you have to go to the store to check the price though.
