Unfortunately my leg of lamb came back N/A today.

Not sure why since the one I got on Friday from a different store was fine.

Same packaging. Fresh New Zealand whole leg of lamb. £8.98/kg

The receipt does state that it weighed 5.464kg when it was about 2.3kg, £21.80. The one I got on Friday cost £16.70

Will go back to original store for the next leg.

just spoken to DH, he says the lamb in the fridge section with the ready meals (not in fresh meat section) were all over £20 a leg.. maybe dtd only works if you keep it under £20? unless anyone knows different it may be useful to know..

Had my first awkward shop with a voucher today. No real problem - SA knew about DTD, knew exactly what to do. It was just that, as soon as she noticed me taking the voucher out of my bag, she seemed to go into a ridiculous huff!

She'd been perfectly pleasant up till then but the conversation stopped dead as soon as she spotted the voucher! My shopping, which had been put through quite carefully, was suddenly being thrown in my direction in a rather forceful fashion! Quite unbelievable, the person behind me noticed (it was hard not to) and started laughing. This started me off and annoyed the SA even more!

i had this too last week, went all narky, even more so when the lady behind me asked what my voucher was for the sa mumbles under her breath and i told the lady in detail about the price checker :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

don't know if this has been mentioned before as it's not on the spreadsheet but Lenor Fabric Conditioner Concentrate Summer Breeze - 85 Washes (3L) has been reduced to £3 in Asda £6.80 in Tesco - 80p profit (UNCONFIRMED)

Will using coupons for the item (eg: finish coupon found on box) affect the DTD?

DEAR SPREADSHEET EDITORS:

I've just had a look at your downloadable spreadsheet for the first time and noticed the following:

Cost total formula in cell D1 is "=Sum(H7:H654)" and should be "=Sum(H5:H654)"
Potential DTD total formula in cell G1 is "=Sum(I7:H654)" and should be "=Sum(I5:H654)"
It would be very useful if you could put a filter on column G please - we could then select all but '0' and print out a ready made shopping list!
Frozen panes at cell B5 would also be very useful to preserve the headings.

These observations are merely suggestions of opportunities for helpful improvements - I hope you don't think that I am being critical at all as I really couldn't thank you enough for your time, efforts and dedication (although I'm sure Mr T has a different view!)

Keep up the good work!

Thanks

Terry

That's exactly what I do with the spreadsheet I download. I did suggest what you have (by pm) a few days ago but I think there are so many updates for them (prices) and I think functional changes probably get discussed & agreed.

It won't affect the amount you get (negatively) just bear in mind your shopping will still need to total over the cost of the DTD voucher you are using (assuming you are).

No, any coupon payments are treated as cash.
