Yep unfortunately DTD often includes a confrontation with a right old trout lol

Thanks for that, I honestly thought that going to the CS desk would be best course, even the SA thought it was an overcharge and she removed the sels.
But I will do that in future, its just that I didn't want be left with nearly £35 for 2 joints meat, I would never pay that much! lol
your welcome:D i do know how you feel it is so hard to argue the point with out making a scene, i got 2 the other day and had the same fear of being stuck with £45 of beef that i would never have brought but i was lucky and she just gave me dtd with out me saying anything:T0 -

Evenings Eliters,
I'm gonna give up this DTD malarky, I tried a few weeks ago and was refused, saying they were the wrong ones, ok I let that one go.
Tried again at the weekend with the beef topside and top rump, £10kg on vac packs, yellow sel £5kg, pays and goes to cs acts all confused saying I think I've been overcharged, shows SA the sels, she agrees and checks with dept mgr, who says no the dtd as the barcodes are different and that a customer has put them there in the cabinets, we haven't had these since lunchtime, thats not my fault is it, the meat matches the description, am I expected to check every barcode I buy? I think not, he then says I can have them at £5kg, so I say ok, I'm thinking call H/o CS after.
Then duty mgr gets involved and says what will make me happy? I say full refund and the joints, no I can't do that its not an overcharge but we'll just refund the total amount and he will have the meat back, he says no to me having them at £5kg, and the meat is removed.
I take my refund and walk out, I call H/O they said they can't do a lot because I didn't have the meat, she contacted the store and came back with a £10 gift card which I've accepted.
But can I ask did I get the right beef as I started to think I got the wrong ones because they said the barcodes were wrong but I'm sure Ive read on here somewhere where the barcodes change at the end.
You were correct. The last digits (but one) on the bc are the price of the pack.
You should have got dtd.0 -

Ive done the DTD before and never had a problem, the store I visited has only been open since just before xmas, so I think they were trying to fob me off.
I am looking forward to a new store they have built by where I work, should be open in the summer, so I'll be hot footing it there when the glitches / dtd hit! lol0 -
