    Dear Mr Tesco,

    I write to you from the World Famous 11+ thread off of MoneySavingExpert.com (That Martin Lewis chaps website).

    We have recently liberated thousands and thousands of pounds worth of merchandise at knockdown prices from one of your rival competitors, Mr Asda. They are literally letting us walk out of the shop after paying for shopping with little computer printouts, and then using the receipts we get to print more. It is just like printing Asda Pounds off your computer.

    Anyway, as we are World Famous, the pesky press have been writing stories on us, and have had a little chat to Mr Asda about the whole thing.

    Mr Asda says we are "A really savvy bunch of shoppers" and the fact we have generated over 2 million views regarding this is "a PR coup".

    At the 11+ we are a caring sharing bunch, and don't like it when just one company gets to receive the benefits of our attention, so I am writing to you wondering if you would also like to take part in our "PR coup".

    At this moment in time we would be greatful if you could arrange glitches on the following items:

    Clothing, especially umbrellas and winter coats, hats gloves etc. But we are OK for mens socks ;)
    Toys (for the kids, christmas is coming),
    Dishwasher tablets (ours are lovely and clean already, just need something to clean the dishes),
    Laundry detergent, (cos we like clean clothes)
    Shower gels/soap etc (we have lovely clean hair, but the rest of us needs to be clean too),
    Beer, wine, spirits etc (for christmas and any day with a "y" in it)
    Chocolate (no explaination needed)
    Christmas gifts (again, self explanitory).

    Whilst we do not wish to appear greedy, if you could arrange for any/all of the above, as well as any other items that you think we would appreciate, then we would make sure that Mr Asda is not alone in the "PR coup" that we have created,

    Kind Regards,


    The 11+.

    Don't say that the MSE police that patrol ths thread and are aloud to take the moral high ground will put you on the 'Greedy' list

    No congrats to Ms-Money-Penny for making a sensible purchase and not rushing outside to shout it in the street.
    I'm sorry, these vouchers are only exchangeable for abuse!

    I think my stash is quite modest compared to some.

    Its not about whether something can be dine but whether it should be done that matters!
    The £15 cap will not stop the process but will make it harder for people who need the savings to get them.

    Rubbish... i got choccies for a couple of months, cereals, for a couple of months, coke for about 2 weeks and shampoo for 6 months, all done in a few days with no voucher over £13.

    If you make the effort you reap the rewards, just like Henlans

    If anyone is wondering, the meal deal was still going through the till at £5 on a 6pm shop.

    I bought 3 meal deals but it was only when I got home that I noticed that 1 pizza went through at £1.99 and an ice cream at £2.22 so they won't compare for PP :mad:
