how many of you are risking more than one shop on the belt at the same time?

I have but on when my 2nd voucher has been between 1 and 8 pounds (as I think they'll prob. let it slide for a small amount although I have no basis for this assumption) & I've only got 1 or 2 things so that if they refuse its not a major hassle to clear it out of the way of the next person

I normally do 2 at a time, havent had the nerve to do more yet!! I pay for the first one with a voucher and depending on the reaction, make a snap decision wether to use another voucher for the second lot or cash lol!! Most times i use 2 vouchers though!

Haha i know what you mean, my life seems to revolve around tesco, soon as hubby gets home from work in the evening im standing there with my vouchers ready for him to take over with the kids so i can head off to get my fix!!! Then il get home, catch up on this thread, go to bed and dream about flippin DTD!!!

What will happen to us all when this finally stops?! There will be hundreds of people sat in the corner of their rooms rocking backwards and forwards repeating 'no i can't buy two....only one....wolf blass.....pancakes......' :rotfl::rotfl::eek::rotfl::rotfl:

I've got a feeling when this stops I will ration my stash, will obsessively make it last as long as possible, and will be tighter than ever when it comes to grocery shopping. Will feel ripped off paying more than a quid at checkout

If I dont get my vouchers today from Tuesday or yesterday, I wont be a happy bunny. I have severe DTD withdrawal symptoms....

I usually chance 2 or 3 but last night I did 4. I always put through the most important shop first though in case they stop me. If they say anything I will say I am doing shopping for my mum & nan and plead ignorance that I didn't know you could not do that as it says on voucher 1 per transaction lol.

I only have 1 Tesco here and it means a bus journey or waiting for hubby to take me as I don't drive, so I can't shop very often.

I haven't anything to contribute to the list really but I am greatful for everybody who has been keeping the spreadsheet updated.

Of course, with all deals you win some (or lots) and you lose some. To prepare myself for a shop I put everything I want onto Mysupermarket (which constantly pops up the save sign to tell me its cheaper in Asda... durrr like I didn't know). If you sign up to Mysupermarket, which is free, you can then print your list out for tesco and then on the reverse of your fresh tesco shopping list, saving paper and resources, you can print out the same list for Asda by selecting the Asda tab at the top of the page. I currently have a list of 19 items which happily fits on one side of A4 which will save you from bringing in the 10 sheets off the spreadsheet. Alternatively, if you have an Ipod touch if you leave the house with the list open on Safari when you go back into tesco, even if you don't have wifi you can still open the same page up. Just make sure you leave safari on the SS and not anything else as it won't reload otherwise.

I have been limiting my visits and the number of racks of lamb bought as I don't want to be singled out by potential trouts. Luckily I have 6, yes 6, Tesco's within 15 mins drive. I also send out DH as I used to work in 2 of the branches, many moons ago, and still see people who I knew from back then (which is about 10 years ago now!).

Anyway, I am going to get ready to drag DS out with me to Mr Ts. Thanks to all who have been good enough to spare time to update and add to the lists.

P.S anyone who shops at Twickenham Tesco, the one by the Rugby ground there is a trout on CS with dyed red hair! Other woman on CS said to me: I dunno why she sent you here, it clearly says on the sheet that you present it to the checkout operator! Trout walked back to CS desk whilst nice CS woman was serving me who then told trout that the vouchers are taken at any till. Trouts face was so angry. :rotfl:
