    I dunno if your calculation is right or not but that's not important. What is important is that by buying the 2 for £26 you'll not get another £20 voucher from Tesco. You've just killed the voucher.


    That is what I was going to say, you should have bought the one afaik

    Rubbish.... they cannot close / modify the DTD scheme yet without admitting that they are not the cheapest supermarket and they don't want to lose face it would me a P.R. nightmare.

    Agreed, i popped into ASDA last night and they have price check promotional material all over the entrance, and their offer was running well before Tesco.

    oh maybe it is then, not a problem as i always staple mine to coupon anyway :D
    i fold mine up in my coupon as i don't own a stapler :rotfl: i assume it saves them calling over a superviser or phoning up for authorisation with the digit missing which will make it easier for us :T

    :o Right, I need somebody help me to work this out:

    I gone to Mr T yesterday and bought 1L Sirnoff Vodka - £20.49 ea or 2 for £26.

    I had a £20 DTD voulcher. I was at a checkout when it occured to me that I would be better off to get 2 for £26 and that way 2L of vodka only will cost me £6,
    instead if I buy one at the time for £5.50 after the DTD.

    Was I right? I for my life can not get my head around it... :p (I'm really tired). TIA :)


    In a word, no.

    The best way to price up a shop is not deducting the value of the voucher you are redeeming against it, but against the voucher you will get as a result of it.

    Ie. Buy 1 Ltr vodka for £20, get a £15 voucher. Therefore it cost you £5.

    If you buy 2 Ltr bottles for £26, this matches the £13 per bottle deal at asda, so you will get no DTD, therefore the vodka cost you £13 per bottle.
