    Don't let him upset you. These guys lead very dull and boring jobs so they are just passing the time when they pursue you around the store. Perhaps he really likes you ;)
    They do - you are so right. I was worried that the security man at my Tesco had suddenly started to take notice of me, whilst I was looking for the Turners in the wine aisle. I was panicking but then I realised I had done nothing wrong so I took a deep breath and just picked up the wine and meal deal and proceded to pay. I was stopped as I left the store - the security man said " I 've noticed you around alot - is it okay to ask for you for your number so I can take you for a drink some time " Lol !!!!!!!!!!!!! Good god ! I am 42, spend my life online look for bargins, have 4 kids to feed and he asks me for my number. I didn't know whether to pass out or snog him for the compliment. I decided to smile and thank him for the interest and I "WOULD SEE HIM AROUND SOMETIME " lOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:rotfl:

    Mocha Tarts are not in the deal. Perhaps they were in the wrong place.
    Never pay more than you have too

    After being such a DTD fan, I am so annoyed with myself for not finding this thread any earlier - many thanks to the OP and everyone's contributions! Well...I have purchased my first 3 meal deals today :D

    YUM - we had the lasagne tonight swiftly followed by the lemon tarts thingys OMG we are never ever going to lose any weight :o totally lush :p

    Going back tomorrow for another 3 more meals deals and hopefully get my RTD voucher at some point. The male SA that served was so friendly and chatty and we had a good old chat about couponing too - he is 'one of us' and tries every trick in the trade too! I know which SA I am going to see tomorrow now :T

    Hiya, as far as I can see, the mocha tarts aren't in the offer, check this link out: http://www.tesco.com/groceries/SpecialOffers/SpecialOfferDetail/Default.aspx?promoId=A11013962

    Got 3 meal deals tonight, had an £11.86 voucher from my last 2 so £18.14 spend and should get a £17.79 voucher back :D

    No sign or mention of turners road in meal deal section but plenty in wine isle.

    Got 3 x chardonay
    1 meatballs
    1 chicken and ham pies
    1 chicken with asparagus
    1 mash (only 1 left :( )
    2 rosemary pots
    3 cheesecakes

    Had the meatballs with mash tonight, will get them again but serve with pasta in future.

    Running out of places 2 put the wine, got a very small kitchen and house and already quite well stocked with wine as I got 4 bottles from DTD and 24 mini bottles from the tesco glitch and I don't even drink wine - only use it in cooking! Plus it seems pointless to cook with it at the moment while this meal deal offer is on!

    I'm having the same problem, when i enter details from my online shop it says they can't find my details and to try again. I phoned Tesco but advisor couldn't help so they have passed on details of the problem to the IT dept and to wait for an email or phonecall from them. Don't suppose i will hear anything.

    I assume you're clicking through to the ONLINE bit from here

    This all seems a bit of a lottery - some people get the deal, others don't. Tesco appears to be gambling that you won't argue the toss at the checkout.

    The SA I saw today said that the offer was anything in the special cabinet or in the range. I didn't want choc sponge in the cabinet, so cruised about until I found Tesco Finest Millionaire Shortbread and Key Lime Pies.

    The 'deals' didn't check out properly but the friendly lady at CS said she was fed up with 'Meal Deals' as no-one understood them and she was going to put mine through anyway. I felt I was in the right and so wasn't overly grateful but after looking at the info here, i think I got two desserts which weren't in the weeks offer (but were Tesco Finest and so allowable per the SA in the aisles).

    Waiting now to see if I get a voucher vis email for my TR Chardonnays.
