    SCAREMONGER TIME ---- NOT

    Lots of scary stories about CCTV, security guards following you, tracing clubcard details, emails etc.

    My experience so far.

    Visit 1 Used first voucher in A Parked one end of car park'
    Visit 2 Used second voucher in A number 2, park one end of car park
    Visit 3 used third voucher in A number 1 again, parked other end of car park queed other end shop
    Visit 4 used voucher in A number 2 again...etc
    Visit 5,6,7,8 all similar.

    2 different stores different ends of c park and store , different times of day etc.

    Not used clubcard on any occasion, only been asked for the receipt twice!!!

    have even printed of same voucher twice and used it by accident.

    Have used 3 email addresses so far and will just make up some fake ones in the future as I have never had them set to my email address, I have just used the Tesco website to print them off so no need for a proper email address.

    You don't get much for a £20.00 in Tescos nowadays... I got the lot in one bag tonight!!!

    Sorry, unfortunately we have been unable to find your receipt details, so we cannot show you price check results for your shopping. Please try re-entering your receipt details and we will try again to find them.

    I had that problem so entered the details exactly as per receipt. If the time on receipt states "9:15" then enter "9:15" not "09:15". Not sure if this is the reason but worth a try.

    Oh yes you do. For a £20 outlay, you get £120 worth of goods!

    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.)

    Why did she let them confiscate things from her ? they have no rights to even question someone just because they saw her talking to someone on CCTV !!
    WHOOOOSHHHHHHHHH……..
    Blimey what was that ?
    That was your life mate
    Oh I wasn’t quite ready can I have another go ?
    Sorry mate only one per person.

    mainly the salmon and a few others things, plenty of finish dishwashers tablets, but I dont have a dishwasher so No use to me.

    Didnt have a look for lamb as I dont eat it so couldnt tell you if there was any.

    Plenty of easter eggs. SO not completely cleaned out.

    Thanks! I'm after an Easter egg, they don't have them in my local.

  • I have no sympathy for you - I know that sounds harsh but YOU WERE SPEEDING. Expensive lamb costing you 3 points and a £60 fine.

    No bargain is worth breaking the law for or potentially killing someone for.

    My DF got a ticket for doing 35 in a 30 and even a year later I still have a go at him about it. He knows I will never let that one go.

    So you are perfect are you? Do you drive? can you honestly say you have never ever gone over a speed limit? I don't think anyone can!
    I have had a clean licence for over 20 years! I didn't deliberately speed, I am not stupid.

    Oh well I must remember to slam my brakes on at that speed camera next time, same as everyone else that goes past it!

    I didn't post on here to get 'told off' I was trying to be helpful saying there was lamb available in my local Tesco, maybe I won't bother next time!

    I think only the tropical has been tested bbut the others are also £5 in asda (sunshine and lavender IIRC)
  • :(:(:(Has anyone been to Kings Lynn Hardwick store today? The manager has just told me that from midnight last night the price check T&Cs changed and they will now NOT take any vouchers with receipts showing only DTD items being bought!!:(:(:(

    So from now on the receipts have to show a variety of items otherwise they wont be accepted!!! :eek::eek::eek:
    Has anyone else had this happen?

    That is ludicrous. How can they claim to be cheaper when, on production of a receipt which shows that everything you bought is more expensive at Tesco than it is at Asda, it doesn't count?

    Anyway, they are not the Terms and Conditions when I entered into the deal and I am sure they are aware of their position with Trading Standards on that one (thinks when they tried to reduce the daily 'allowance').
