    Hi all

    Just been to T again, managed to use 3 vouchers, receipts already done, well happy! Got some more Smirnoff, also some Betty, Aquafresh, Wolf Blass and Surf. I'm having a massive clearout to make room for all the goodies in the under stairs cupboard! :D

    What really surprises me is that, except for us savvy money savers on here, you mention it to others, and they look at you as if you have 2 heads.

    'Can't be arsed'
    'Too much hassle'
    'Cheaper in Home Bargains'
    'Don't like Tesco'

    Well I'm sorry but this will and has saved me megga bucks - and our cupboards are well stocked. Why are people so silly when it comes to money?

    I get the same reaction from people I know to almost any moneysaving suggestion/opportunity. It beggars belief!!!! :eek::eek::eek::eek:
    Anyone else finding themselves being really nosy as to what other shoppers are buying now?

    Yes! :rotfl:

    I mentioned it to my mum, she said it sounds like that Bernie Madoff pyramid scheme. " You put £20 pounds in, and everyday £20 pounds of shopping comes out...." Now she wants nothing to do with it. lol

    she loves the Almond Magnums and Betty Crocker though. :rotfl:

    LOL!!!!!!!!!!!! Spoken like a true mum. :rotfl:

    Why do people feel the need to alter text size, font and colour for regular posts.
    FOR THE SAME REASON PEOPLE USE CAPS LOCK then say "sorry, had caps lock on there" rather than just re-write it.

    Just got back from T's. Had a right miserable SA who said, "Can't use this here need to go to CS" i said no you just scan it, she totally refused telling me she had been told not to accept them. So I just stood there refusing to budge. She said again "I'm not putting in through, got to CS" I stood my ground and said no you can get CS over here. She huffed and puffed and put her light on and over trots the supervisor. She said to the supervisor "She's got one of those vouchers and I'm not putting it through" The supervisor took one look and said "You've all been told about these today, Don't you remember we had a memo fromhead ofice saying they don't need t go to customer services any more, you can just scan them" I cannot believe how all you lot on here and DTD'ing has made me stand up for myself!!! So many thanks to everyone:T
    Beware!!!! Glitching is addictive:rotfl:

    Just back from spending my 3 vouchers. We pleased they had refilled the Wolf Blass Chardonnay so bought 2 bottles. Also got 2 lots of veet wax strips (new one so will see if they are confirmed tomorrow), radox handwash, olive oil, airwick reed diffuser and a pizza. I know these are all grossly overpriced items, with the aim to get more DTD back but I was once again amazed how little you can get for your money (well £55 of vouchers)!!

    So people read it rather than skim through the threads - which we know happens - which is why we keep getting loads of the same question popping up all the time - because people do not read posts properly.

    THATS WHY.
