Tesco Price Checker Thread #8

Options
My 2000th post :cool::rotfl::cool::rotfl::cool:

(Hello, old friends!:D)

And now, the end is near,
And so I face the final coupon.
My friends, I'll say it clear;
I'll state this promo got poop on.

I've DTD'd a life that's full -
I've travelled each and every highway.
And more, much more than this,
I DTD'd it my way.

Regrets? I've had a few,
But then again, too few trouts to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw shops through without exemption.

I planned each charted course -
Each careful step along the byway,
And more, much more than this,
I DTD'd it my way.

Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew,
When I bit off more than I could chew,
But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate it up and till spit it out.
I faced it all and I stood tall
And DTD'd it my way.

I've loved, I've laughed and cried,
I've had my fill of magnums, beef, enigmas - my share of lamb.
But now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.

To think I did all that,
And may I say, not in a shy way -
Oh no. Oh no, not me.
I DTD'd it my way.

For what is a man? What has he got?
If not his Spreadsheet - Then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took Tesco for the cheats they are
And DTD'd it my way.

Yes, I DTD'd it my way.

    Gave that my thanks as you are not in the know.

    Excellent, certainly cheered me up after getting back off holiday yesterday fistful of vouchers in hand and finding out DTD was no more.

    Thanks SirBrainy for the silver lining

    It would be great for some bright spark to think of a thread where we can bring back the friendly banter of DTD - anyone?

    Funny, quick, witty, friends together, mistakes forgiven in a trice, idiots & trolls scolded and ignored, positive sharing of information - it was great!
