    Not had a chance to read today but managed to get some Beef finally, more Lamb and Pork hope it still works as didn't check before I went, no matter as I used a voucher to get them.

    Managed to de bone my leg of lamb (far to big for 3 of us) and had some leg steaks for dinner.....yum so tasty, have frozen the rest as steaks and some cubed for curry's.

    So I've reached the end of my £100 limit and just wondering what the rest of you are doing...do you use the final voucher to buy 'normal' shopping (i.e. bogofs etc) or do you use it for DTDs and save the receipt for next month and start the voucher chain over again?

    Also do we know for certain whether it's calendar month (i.e. April) or 1 month from when you started DTD? If it's definitely calendar month I might be able to squeeze one more voucher....but I don't want to risk it if it might come back with THE email...

    Thanks! :)


    why not give the voucher to your gran/mum/brother/dog and then you can shop for them with their email addy as they are too busy to go to tesco ;)

    this is exactly what they have done to me yes, looks like she signed her name/initials. in top right of NEW reciept.

    so i took my OLD receipt in with my voucher that matched it. she took these both to her supervisor to check, then came back scanned it and took my money (few quid). then took the newly generated receipt from the machine AND SIGNED IT :eek::( so now i cant get DTD on the new stuff

    Can you tear off the corner with her scribble on it? If not, still put it in for the pricecheck, and when the voucher arrives, print off the page with the list of compared items. Take it with you when you go to get your next shop to use the voucher. Go to CS before you shop, and explain that the SA signed the wrong receipt by mistake. They can check your receipt against the list of DTD items on the printoff to confirm it. If they aren't happy with that get them to ring up to check the voucher is eligible and has not been used already.

    And finally, you have to be quick at the till and grab your receipt as soon as they open the till drawer to put your voucher/cash in. Don't give the bu**ers chance to get their mitts on it. If it's in your pocket they can't sign it! :p

    I don't want to appear critical - but, on the face of these two shops, you haven't quite got the right method !!!! Unless these were wombled receipts and you only posted to show us what is NOT working, you need to rethink your strategy.

    what do you mean? you went straight to CS and asked them to print u a new one? ive left the store now so i take it i cant do this :(
    You can still go back and get it done. I believe it said somewhere on the forum you can ask them to do this anytime in the next 7 days.
    Love your Mum, you'll never get another one when she's gone.

    i was thinking of tearing of the corner i was worried if i teared it they may be a bit funny about it - ie if that particular trout knows staff are signing top of receipts OR stapling the reciept to the voucher on that corner so its less noticable. ie voucher on top , receipt under with staple over the signed part.

    hope if works il be gutted cos i got two of the bikini razors <3 if not thats the end of my DTD game after one go ( one cash purchase -got one voucher and used that. end of game :(!
