    Okay then, how do you buy 10 flumps if you've got a voucher for £20? You have to spend over £20 but you also can't get more than £20 DTD without wasting it!

    Ok 10 flumps @ .90 = 9.00 Mr A = .90 difference 8.10 DTD 16.2
    Lake district mature Cheddar 3.89 Mr A 2.00 = difference 1.89 DTD 3.78

    Total spend 12.89 DTD voucher expected back = 19.98

    on a £20.00 voucher gives you £7.11 to spend on other N/A or price match items... Milk etc

    I am sure there is items that will make up the additional .02p but I was looking at my quick list.

    I have found an amazing DTD by complete accident.

    I bought some sweets tonight for my little ones and they love flumps, so I picked up 4 of these amongst other things for them. Thinking the flumps were 10p each and adding it all up it came to around £10 altogether. It actually came to £13.?? altogether, which I found strange but I thought I will look at the receipt and examine where I have been overcharged.

    The flumps..........90p each :eek::eek::eek::eek:

    Obviously I questioned these at CS, she went and got the SEL as I was thinking I was on to a good DTD from them she said 'they are 90p each, it says so on the label' I laughed and said 'not a chance' they are 10p each so there is a mistake somewhere. She said maybe because they are fat free :rotfl: I said even then there is no way they are 90p each, I was laughing and joking about it, I found it quite funny. She said well you can buy 11 for £1.00 and we can give you the difference back, I said ok then.

    First thing I do when I get back is check Tesco site

    Barratts Flumps Cable 90p


    I then check Asda site

    Barratt's Flumps 9p

    DTD £1.62 Net -72p

    10 flumps in Tesco will cost you £9 in Asda 90p DTD £16.20 Net -£7.20

    Obviously the SEL in Tesco should read 0.09p

    fill your boots! :j
    Without word of a lie I was shopping a week or so ago & a BIG man had a trolley full. I asked myself if there was a glitch etc but didn't act upon it & never gave it another thought until you just posted.

    Either they are fat free & he was getting them for his eating plan or he was a DTD'er & was on the ball.

    Shame we can't get instant DTD in-store for these as the SEL states 90p. It'd be amazing if it stated 9p!

    Thanks to all those who are taking the trouble to submit results to help others!!

    I think it is great to ensure that all peoples finds are input on the spreadsheet. I commend your work. I am just thinking though if the spreadsheet is only updated say once in the morning then once in the evening, any updates in between will be missed by DTDers untill the next update. Wouldn't it be an idea if (as a couple have recently suggested) people also post on this thread for all to see in real time?
