Normally what happens with variable prices (as here) is that the first bit relates to the product and the last bit (apart from the VERY last number, which is a 'check digit' for the computer to make sure it's read it right) relates to the price. Hence XXX 9659 means it's for a £9.65 joint, and the XXX 951X above is for £9.51. So you should expect the end of the barcode to be different but for DTD the first bit must be the same.

Thanks for this.

Do we all think it safe for SS Editors to put barcode down as starting with 02365 ?

I have a suspicion that receipts that are a few days old take longer to process as their system has to go back further to retrieve price comparison data.

Not been the case with me - I didn't enter my Friday ones til last night because of the delays during the past two weeks over the weekend - plus I don't tend to shop at the weekend anyway. They came back today at the same time as everyone elses submissions from yesterday.

What puzzles me about the beef is that is is £8.48 per kilo on the Asda and Tesco websites so how come it is paying DTD

Hello all, this is my first post so please be gentle with me.

Yesterday I checked in store at my Local Asda and Tesco for 2ltr coca cola.

As of yesterday it was on offer in Asda for 2 for £1.50.

In Tesco it was by 2 get 2 free, at the price of £1.78 each total £3.56 for either 2 or 4 bottles.

I only purchased 2 bottles from Tesco, checked my receipt today and has come back as N/A ??

Any ideas as to why perhaps.

PS, Thanks for all the postings on here, only discovered this last Friday and allready have over £35 in vouchers.

the 2 lt is not price matched you should have bought 125l x2

quick question i can only see a large beef joint for £4 kg on asda's website so can anyone see the right one on asda?

• A Beef Roasting Joint Large (please note that the price displayed is the price per kg. The minimum weight of this item is 2.1kg)
• (By Weight)

• £4.00/kg

Thank you Dinah

If you could also check your price check receipt online, (you know the one which tells you you would've been a million pounds cheaper than asda ) could you copy and paste it pretty, pretty please when you have a chance.

3 x TESCO FRESH BEEFT/S T/R S/S JNTSSML STORES (2.528 kg) £ 21.44 £ 21.44 N/A: A comparable match cannot be found on the day of purchase

Mystery solved - for whatever reason my joint couldn't be price matched. Was this the bit of the receipt you needed?

I wouldnt just yet as like somebody posted the lamb whole legs all have different barcodes on it.
maybe people who have had DTD on it could post the barcodes here and then see if there is a link 1st?
The barcode off the meat joint not just the reciept
