    Back from my daily DTD sesh...
    Just raided the shelves of 56 packs of Finish powerball lemon!! (Fantastic deal)!!
    Also, got the standard betty crocker, finest roasters, magnums, red salmon... lol!

    The SA goes to me "how did you manage to get tesco to be £20 dearer"!! It was the 1st she had seen.
    I'm having no problems putting 2 sets of receipts together in 2 seperate shops just with divider down middle. The SAs have no idea that supposedly you are only allowed to use 1 a day (however, as discussed that is debatable....!)


    Long may DTD continue. Happy doubling everyone!

    Not sure if previously mentioned and NOT confirmed but will be great if it is;

    ISLE OF JURA (not the superstition one)10 year old 700ml
    T=£28.29 A=£18.00
    £20 dtd voucher!

    Hope this helps any whiskey lovers, not sure what it tastes like, but at £8.29 a bottle, anyone care?!?

    I am going to buy one of these for my OH's birthday but am totally clueless! what is the superstition one and will this be obvious when I buy it? TIA

    My voucher is priniting off without the scissors!! Any ideas? I think I remember people being turned away for not having the scissors on theirs!!

    When I print mine off I do a 'print preview' then I shrink it to about 90% so the scissors fit on - hth
    Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend...

    Wanted to share a dreadful experience - tried to use a voucher today and was told at this store all vouchers have to go to customer services now.

    Was taken to customer services and manager called - he arrived with a list of my previous shops since the first time I used a voucher in MARCH - he said that I had gone over £100 in a month. I explained that he had included March vouchers and I understood that April was a new month - NO he said its a rolling month and so every voucher within a 30 day period (so todays back to 30 days ago!!)

    On my previous vouchers he had my credit card details/ cash sales and debit card details (surely this is a breach of privacy/data protection!!!) and I had been tracked on CCTV - heck I'm was only using their scheme and followed the rules or so I though £100 per calendar month..... and I am CCTV'd at Tescos..... what is the world coming to when Tesco staff feel they can WATCH customers like this.... no clubcard used. The CCTV times were recorded alongside each of my receipts...BIG BROTHER

    Thought I'd share and a possible warning - but aware that all stores seem to be treating this differently

    Debating on my action since very unimpressed with filming people and keeping my credit card/debit/name to match up vouchers - seems not many people took advantage of the scheme at my store.

    I've been paying with cash just in case, but you shouldn't have to :mad:

    Yes it is obvious, says superstion across the front, but the best way to remember is to buy the one at £28.29 as the superstition one is dearer!

    Ive been a bit thick / not read the thread enough and only just found out that they have put a £20 maximum cap on refund vouchers now. just a warning to others who might not realise this.

    WHOOOOSHHHHHHHHH……..
