I did last time, but used a bit of psychology on the SA - I managed to find an empty till (which are rarer than Finest racks of lamb!) and before I started unloading, I asked the SA if it was okay to split the basket. Of course, he said it was no problem. Then I paid for both half baskets with a voucher on each .... but, of course, he had given me permission to do that (kinda!)

Can't seem to get a list sorted today, too much to choose from and so many prices to check...
Can I ask, anyone who is cheeky enough to do it, can you put through two seperate shops at the checkout split by a divider and use two vouchers or would I need to go around again? I don't want to have to keep walking past security

I sometimes put through 2 shops, prefer DH to come with me though and do his 'own' shop!
I usually have a normal DTD shop which I put on the converyor first, then a small DTD shop with high value items like sun cream or eye cream. That way I know I will get the first one through and can always leave the second one if there is a problem. However, I've never had a problem doing 2 on one conveyor, just pick your SA carefully;).0 -
I am a DTD virgin. Did a little shop on Saturday as I hadnt studied this thread so have £4.32 dtd voucher to spend. Couldnt get to sleep last night for planning my list today !! How have I missed this earlier!
Thank you so much for all the posters and the SS, its amazing0 -
My Tesco is open 9am to 6pm today - not that I obsessively checked Easter opening hours in advance or anything...
