    There is a web based link in my sig which updates live, it was posted by Thanatos (thanks!) on here last night, would it work better than the current system of reposting the spreadsheet updates? :beer:
    I think the only main arguement at the moment for keeping with "new" links all the time, is it stops it being so easily pinched by "other" sites who may just link to it; at least that way they have to work for it too :D

    Indeed, rotating links does reduce the chance of it being spread to all and sundry - you have to at least come on here to get it!

    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

    kids are so funny arent they? my four year old last week came out with a classic........ I stopped at my local Co-op on the way to school to buy some lemons and got back in the car with the bag - he looked in the bag and really matter of factly said 'that was a bit silly wasnt it mummy?' I said 'what are you going on about?' as I hadnt a clue what he was trying to say - he looked right at me and so seriously said ' well you shouldnt have bought the lemons in co-op mummy as you might have got a double the difference at Tesco' - I nearly wet myself laughing and made a mental note not to discuss DTD ALL the time in future:D

    The main reason I keep posting new updates is people can download them and actually use them as a functional spreadsheet.

    I discovered one day into my DTDing that I needed something better than a pen and paper to run the numbers quickly, works nicely on the phone while shopping as well.

    How many original shops have you guys done? I'm a tad confused- our first shop last night (myself & OH did 1 shop each seperately) so still waiting for first vouchers.

    OH wants to do another tonight so we get further 2 vouchers. I'm saying not worth it and just wait for 2 voucchers. We both live/work within easy reach of tescos so time not an object, just wonderingh what everyone else does/did at the start.

    We only bought confirmd dtd items btw.

    one original shop five further shops although i have no car and its quite a distance to tesco on my own a 3 yr old or i may just be doing lots more shops :D
    best win in 2011:eek: 4 nights in Las Vegas :eek:

    Also before using the links kindly hosted by Scotsgirl, and SylvieDee, let’s not forget our manners and take a second to thank them for the time they have spent updating the spreadsheet, and providing everyone with the means to access it.


    hi, where's the best place to thanks? which post/thread?
