I'm sure I read that someone had a hard time in Scarborough T's

It was the lady who they tracked on CCTV and followed up with the other local store to collaborate on when she'd been in !

Think we're getting mixed up. I mean the 1st transaction (when you get the code to enter online). So can I buy my items using the SS (not redeeming any vouchers, meerly after a receipt code

Yes, that won't be a problem

yes was my first nerve racking moment lol.... put my dtd shop through no probs, hubby behind paying for a few other bits including 1p item....young girl scans it, says o its coming up as 1p I will just have to check that..:eek: i say but if it scans as that then its that price surely? she insists on calling supervisor, so i leave hubby and go back to put stuff in the car (whistling tunelessly as i try and slope out lol, ):rotfl:as i dont want to draw attention to myself .. he comes out carrying a 1p bag :T so thank you:beer:

ALWAYS use self scan with the 1p items!!!! :cool:

hi folks, just saying hello:)

just sat down for first time today, getting things sorted for going away tomorrow, not read the thread since early hours so no idea what the heck is going on in the land of DTD

I went to dental hospital in sheffield today got a good ticking off re my teeth, didn't have the guts to tell the dentist its all the magnums and lucozade i've been having lately!!

Thought i'd pop into the local tesco (of course) while i was there -only wanted to check the betty crocker situation really as no vouchers yet but an £8 giftcard-2 full rows of them!!!!!!!!!!!
i stupidly bought only 7 and thought i'd come back for the rest later-(was going to go to the local public library and print off my vouchers-had it all planned). Got back to the car DD crying saying she's dropped my iphone down the seat-we could not get it for love or money-drat:mad::mad: now can't check thread. After spending an hr finding somewhere to park then an hr waiting for my dental appointement I couldn't help take my kids where on the way home? You guessed it "Tesco" , I couldn't be bothered with a trip to the library esp as i didn't know for sure if vouchers were back. Anyway back to same branch NOW NO SIGN OF ANY BETTY's:eek::eek::eek: Double drat:mad::mad:

So had to find a local VW garage without a sat nav-great, when we finally got to a garage the chap must have thought i was a total nutcase, asking him to get my phone out from under the seat, he spent 10mins then finally grabbed a ruler and hey presto, an iphone with a near dead battery!!! just enough to ask you guys if any voucher news, no vouchers! triple drat:mad::mad::mad:

so we spent a coupls of hours in a local park before i couldn't resist checking out one last tesco before we came home (well we were out of town it was a special occasion) had a real struggle finding it, then when finally got there only one betty on the shelf, took it to SS and out came a piddly little reciept with no bloomin numbers at the bottom!!! quadruple drat:mad::mad::mad::mad: fuming now and took it back to CS got my money and stormed out!!

Got home and just enough time to check one or two pages of the thread at home before taking kids to activities, SAW THE FAIRY GLITCH, YIPEE:T:T:T (except i never get any of the glitches!)

So we drop off at activities and take the 3 yr old to guess where again yep "TESCO" he says "mummy where are we going?" I say "nowhere darling" when i pull up he SCREAMS "MUMMY TESCOS??? NOT TESCOS, ITS TESCO TESCO TESCO!!! NO NO NO!!!" what can i dsay to that except i'll just be a minute darling! We go in i try a couple of fairy's glitch works a treat i nearly drop dead with excitement, rush off o geta trolley and grab the lot off the shelf, then promptly take him to our other local where i do the same + DTD shop. He was rewarded with 3 packs of magnums.


I treated him to 3 magnums, risked 2 of the 8.99 surf 50ish washes so hope that goes through and following all your inspiring recipes 2 tins of salmon!!!

have given some fairy to my sis and brother, many thanks for posting link tara i wouldn't have looked at grabbit board was in a rush to get in and out.

And now to catch up with the thread.........

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I do love your posts celebrate... Though it wasn't me who originally posted about the Fairy glitch... I have been missing all the Grabbits for the last month! :rotfl:

Not true, i had one for over £10 put through the self serve ones and although it needed someone to process it it still went through. But it did take 2 people to work it out.

I had trouble on a self checkout for a £12 voucher - she had to move me to another till - I guess some of them know what to do and some dont!

look on the spread sheet

thanks for that helpful comment:(
i have looked and its yellow but remember someone posting yesterday they were put off/scared of buying it and wondered if someone had had it come back n/f as alot of things are that prev were ok

laticsforlife

A lot of posters say good or bad things about srtores but then don't say where these were, so to that end, here's my experiences;

Oldham Extra - very good, knowledgable and multiple shops not even noticed
Droylsden, never seen vouchers b4, no hassle at all
Stalybridge, same as above
Greenfield, small store, never seen b4, accepted no bother, didn't sign receipts tho' until prompted
Rochdale, knew what to do exactly
Failsworth, taken to keeping old receipt but I'm OK with that (Except when it was a guarantee receipt, so she signed it instead and gave it back)
Gorton, laid back and easy.
