    My lamb from yesterday came back ok, i know you asked for people who were na, but i thought i'd post

    I used a £20 voucher on the smallest leg of lamb £22.92, the weight was 2.55kg, i have received another dtd for £20.00

    And for those of you who may remember me yesterday, i bought the wrong beef, i bought a £16 shrink wrapped one, and it came back na

    but today the ones in plastic cartons, are now reduced to £7.00 a piece in haydock tesco
    i was looking before in haydock as well got the rigt beef from wigan last nite though..

    To add to the lamb saga Asda are now showing a leg of lamb at £8.98/kg as well as the £5.00/kg one (sorry, can't post links as I'm too new :o) Definitely two "whole leg of lamb" showing on their website though.

    Don't think I'll chance it now :sad:

    this was my first DTD purchase - i am amazed and delighted, the info and help here is top notch, keep up the good work, now i'm gonna work on stragey and disguises for further purchases.....:beer:

    1 x BACARDI WHITE RUM 1 LITRE £ 22.79 £ 13.00

    Disguises ha ha ha!!!!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    i think i may have just messed up:o
    the lady who served me was shocked at the £20 voucher when i bought a bottle of bacardi just now. then i used another £20 to buy another bacardi seperately, she said hang on a min they are on offer 2 for £26, i said i know its fine i just want to use the vouchers and you can only use one per transaction. she said "i keep putting in my reciepts and i don't get anything back, if i do its just pence and not worth printing it". so then i opened my big cake hole and told her to buy today 1 bottle of bacardi and try it. then i had to go on to explain it all. then, wishing i could stop my verbal diarrhea, went on to tell her about martin lewis's website and people on there posting the best things to buy to get vouchers back:cry::embarasse she got really excited about it and said she'd have a look.
    think i'd better stay away from there for a couple of days:o

    Why are you so upset???? I don't get it.

    Is anyone else finding it difficult to find the rack of lamb? It is now temporarily out of stock in my local. I am wondering if they are struggling to keep up with the demand?

    As it is an expensive cut of meat I don't think T's usually 'sell' so many lol:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:hence there are not usually many pieces on display!

    I know people have been having trouble not being able to use a voucher because it has been written on, but I used one this morning where the supervisor circled the coupon amount and wrote price check underneath.
    If you don’t speculate, you can’t accumulate. :beer:
