Tesco/Asda Pricechecker Thread - part 4

Apart from the obvious, that people working in the store will see somebody doing a million shops a day and get suspicious, remember that these are shops done using DTD vouchers. Every time one of those is used, the bar code is scanned, that goes straight into a database that builds the exact trail of its use, times, what stores, what was bought, associated email address etc etc.............it's really not difficult to see who is taking the pee out of the system. For cases such as the 15 shops in a day earlier and obvious abuse of the system, they could very easily be matched up to cctv footage, identified and subsequently banned from Tesco stores.
For vouchers with a value over £9.99 all the barcodes are the same

Can you please clarify 'for the shop' exactly what we are looking for weight, measures, desription & price please.
Tuna is a no brainer buy for me.
DO BUY (I had this confirmed):
2x John West No Drain Tuna Chunks with a Little Sunflower Oil (3x120g) £3.50 (BUY TWO - so £7.00)
[Asda = 2 for £3]
MAYBE BUY (I have not had this confirmed yet, but should work):
2x John West No Drain Tuna Chunks with a Little Brine (3x120g) £3.40 (BUY TWO - so £6.80)
[Asda = 2 for £3]
DONT BUY:
John West No Drain Tuna STEAKS with a Little Brine (3x130g)
John West No Drain Tuna STEAKS with a Sunflower Oil (3x130g)
Chunks (120G) = good times
Steaks (130G) = bad times0 -
