    I had a store open up the road from me last month, will have to check if they have any, its small compared to all my other locals but will be worth going in if I can get a few vouchers :)

    Do asda self-service tills need authorisation for coupons?

    Yes, I believe so they have to be authorised in my local store.

    30p off here:

    http://www.enjoycountrylife.co.uk/ecoupon/countrylifecoupon.pdf

    EDIT: just realised the coupon is for the spreadable range. still might be accepted?

    Am I right here then, I buy this is Tesco with a voucher I have left (so free in first place) at £1.30 use 30p coupon so £1 and while its 50p in tesco I get 80p back for it so net cost 20p or I can use coupon in asda and pay 20p for it?

    So for me having both supermarkets near by, the deal would be that im using my left over dtd vouchers for the spend where as id be using cash in asda? Is that right?

  • The very first post suggests that people can't add up. The reason that I have gone 'on and on and on' is that each time I pointed out the error in the maths, someone would come back and talk about getting stuff 'for pennies'.

    It even mentions 'for pennies' on the very first post. My point is, you are not getting anything for pennies. People reading the first post might think they are getting something for nothing and that's it a great idea to buy stuff that's dearer in Tesco rather than just go to Asda.

    I have said numerous times that it's a reasonable approach if you have no Asda nearby, there's no need to get so defensive about it. If people finally understand that this method is simply a way of getting Asda special offers in Tesco, then great. The first post absolutely does not make this clear.

    Personally, I don't give a hoot where people shop or how much trouble they go to just to get the same price as Asda. I'm lucky, I have every supermarket under the sun all close by each other (though not that close to me). I know others don't have the same choice. :)

    Thanks for your interest - actually when people continue to make out that I can't do the maths, I will get defensive - and here's a quote from the first post:
    This method is simply a way of getting ASDA special offers in Tesco - thus increasing the number of offers available to you at your local Tesco if you don't have an ASDA nearby.
    Now, that may not be clear to you, but its perfectly clear to me. Moreover, if I go to Tesco tomorrow and buy finish quantumatic starter kit using coupon i think i will get it for nothing. Tesco will be on my way home from my other shopping. Asda on the other hand would be a 35 mile drive in the other direction, and a 35 mile drive back again. I've had a lot of fun with DTD, not got as much as some, as even Mr T is a detour for me from where I live, but I am quite happy with what I have got, and big thanks to all on the DTD thread who helped me get it! If I can have a bit of a laugh getting some more shopping which would be cheaper at Asda but not worth the drive for me, then that's all to the good. BTW, my bit of good fortune is that Waitrose is my corner shop...won't mean a thing to you unless Waity's is your corner shop as well...;) - anyways, have a great weekend one and all, my main mantra is that there's always another deal round the corner!
