    ???? Tell us more........

    Last month I pushed my luck, and got away with using over £200 of vouchers in my local. Was eventually told I was over the monthly limit, and couldnt use any more till April.

    Went in on Tuesday and they had looked on the cctv and matched it up. Said that because i had abused the system they would accept no more vouchers from me, ever.

    They even watched me walk through the carpark afterwards (I bumped into a work colleague who i decided to give a voucher, but they pulled her aside as soon as she stepped through the door, and swiftly confiscated the voucher+ receipt.)

    I havent used my clubcard for the last few visits, never get asked apart from once when I said I dont normally shop in Tesco.

    Thanks for that. Made a few mistakes on my first shop, not least using my Clubcard. Oh well, live and learn.

    Sorry to be a pain, but could someone post a link to the deal on the leg of pork please. I recall reading it on here recently but I can't find the post. I have also been trawling mysupermarket and both Asda and Tesco's websites but can't find a 'matching set' with a good deal.

    Thanks in advance.

    Good grief, I heard on the radio today that Big Brother was back, thought it was on channel 5 not Tesco TV.
    Did you use same e mail? CC/ Debit or credit card?
    Love your Mum, you'll never get another one when she's gone.

    Surely if people are geting caught on cctv their has to be a reason. I think that the most common reason has to be that people are using a store that no one else is using dtd in and they are more noticeable and they are sticking to same store. I can't see that the clubcard or credit card would link them instore.It would link them at head office when vouchers are processed but not straightaway instore. Maybe the manager has his suspicions that it is the same person and has checked the cctv and worked it out himself. Hope you understand what I mean.
    It doesnt make it right and no one should be made to feel that they can't use the same store, it's just my opinion on why some people are getting pulled up. Personally if I was pulled up and wasnt over the limit I would give up a right old fuss.
    Beware!!!! Glitching is addictive:rotfl:

    Hawaiian tropic

    I know the Hawaiian tropic SPF 15 has been confirmed as working but can anyone confirm what colour is on the front. I saw some in Asda that had blue on the front of the bottle but the ones in my Tesco have orange on the front - not sure it's the same

    Thanks

    So, if you are using £200, for separate (verifiable) different households, will you potentially be subjected to this kind of treatment?!

    Watching you walk through the carpark too! What do they do, check the tills at the end of the night and those with vouchers track the CCTV to check on people?! That sounds like abuse of Tesco's powers, never mind abuse of the dtd system!
