I've received at DTD while shopping at tesco, redditch. however i'm keen to try there online shopping. Is it possible to use the voucher when shopping via tesco.com and if yes, then how! I've looked at the site but i'm struggling to see how to redeem it....

thanks

Love the analogy!

Thanks. At 13.5% ABV it's similar to penicillin in so many ways. Hic.

Interesting. And thank you so much for bringing it to my / our attention.

Intersing because that is in direct contradiction to their Terms and Conditions. Term 32 reads:

The number of Price Check requests is limited to 10 per calendar month per household and the total amount of Price Check Vouchers that can be claimed is limited to £100 per calendar month per household.

So the 'Price Check Voucher' is what is under scrutiny here, not the excess that they have stripped away. I imagine that they've had to rush the 'checking' software through and it has a big or two.

As long as you have a full history of this months DTD vouchers you've claimed then I would raise it with Tesco Customer Services and quote that line of their own Ts and Cs. They are contradicting themselves.

Thanks. I just emailed them back with my voucher details but if they still come back with the usual blah blah stuff I'll quote the T+C you highlighted!

I shall let you know how I get on.

Thanks for the tips and best wishes. I'm off to bed now (just as it's flaring up again) - time to apply the heat pack to my head. With the right kind of hat, I could pass as The Elephant Man.

Night all.

go careful on the paracetamol, liver damage no funny....
try clove oil if the tablets aren't quite dealing with it, its old fashioned but my ex-hubby allergic to all painkillers swore by it..
hope it eases up and you get some sleep

They would look for a comparable asda extra special. But the descriptions have to be very very very very similar.

phew, thanks! I sent OH out tonight as he wanted bread and a paper (safe bets methinks) with strict instructions to get 2 x Surf 54s and info about reduced items, other bits and bobs etc. So he comes back with a T's Finest Sherry that was reduced......

Does anyone else remember the Fast Show sketch with the fella that would come back from the shops with some random item?

No. But my wife always says 'you have not once in fifteen years come back with just what you went out for'. Never brought back reduced sherry though :T

Even better than that... I've bought some pancake mix, some dishwasher tablets and a child's electric toothbrush.

Sorry if this has already been asked and answered somewhere else. I have read the first few posts, but I am not quite sure I completely understand yet. Do I at any point of this process need to deal with the CS at my local Tesco or not?

And is there a minimum spend for it to work or a minimum amount of items?

Thanks in advance.

Dealing with your paragraphs in order...

Depends on your local Tesco store 'Troutarating' score - impossible to say. Just hand your voucher in and see what happens, but stand your ground.

You need to buy at least one comparible item.

No problem.

What is it with men! Mine is pretty good now that he gets it, but it had to explained. A lot.
