    Oh I agree, Fudge. The thing is, this will not stop people using them more than once due to fear of tracing but will stop them if the bar codes are unique and the till spots it. I've not had it confirmed but I really do thing that Mr T simply bins these vouchers in the cash office, not keeps a running tally in order to trace someone.

    I have watched several put them straight in the bin rather than into the till, others do go into the till.
    At the moment because the vouchers are not unique that is why it is working.

    I'm baaaaaack :D

    And there must have been a glitch or something?!
    I looked on Sunday at the page number and it hadn't gone up that much, couldn't read posts due to bad connection. Will try and catch up but got loads to do today.

    Hope everyone is well and hopefully not flooded out!

    Everything will be ok in the end, and if it isn't ok then it isn't the end :)

    so you mean input it 10 times? Otherwise how would you know which was the correct digit?

    Yes that sounds like a bit of a faff.

    You would need to create an email for each receipt as entering one receipt 9 times would use up a months allownace of JTD attempts

    I understand that 3dogs (Susan's) post about donations in memory of Alan has been removed this morning.

    The 2 charities that she gave for anyone who wished to make a donation were Cancer research (donations can be in Alan's memory through the funeral directors, but I am afraid I don't know who these were) The other charity was Ravenswood Pet rescue where donations can be made via paypal stating that they are in Alan's memory.
    I have not added any links to this post so I hope it won't be removed aswell, but for those of you on FB, I have posted a link to the animal charity on my FB page.

    This is by no means meant to be a request for anyone to donate, it is purely information for anyone who is interested.

    I agree. Although restrictive in some areas, it does widen the scope hugely when using the points coupons/CS vouchers/mocs from the mailings and also manufacturers mocs - have sometimes struggled to get vfm from these and the comparisons with S and M will help there. I have a lot of these to use up - they are often redundant as I don't use my cc too often - need to get creative :D

    Scary territory though in terms of data retention and profiling - this is what T does best and CC data is one of their greatest assets, marketing and otherwise. Think this is part of their drive to take it to the next level .....

    This is one of the reasons I try and mess with the data T has on me. If I go anywhere out of my normal circle and spot a T I use one of my cccards and buy £1 of things . So all Mr T sees about me on my file is random £1 shops, no pattern, all sorts of towns and places so his data on me is meaningless :rotfl:

    Morning everyone :hello:

    I think the adding of a clubcard number to the price checks, is more to stop people trying to re-use the vouchers. Because if they do then the person can supposedly be traced back through their clubcard.

    I think perhaps the fraud prevention aspects are a nice by product. I am pretty sure the driver for adding the CC number will be marketing with a view to increasing turnover.

    Not meaningless :) All data is mined and T tunnel a lot deeper and further than any other organisation.

    Haven't tested it out myself yet (have no receipts), but looks like the new jtd rules may be place and clubcard will be needed :( but comparison is now against other supermarkets too :). See henlans post here. Sounds a lot like the APG. Any one got a wombled receipt they can test it out on?

    I was wondering if that was the case as it was advertised on the radio yesterday, didn't have it very loud so missed bits of what it was saying.
