Things have been a bit tough recently leading up to my FIL's funeral on Thursday. I loved the old guy to pieces as did everyone else in my family, so we have had a very emotional couple of weeks.
I know time is a great healer and things will get better in time, I just can't wait for that to happen.
I want memories of the old codger to become just fond, happy memories, not ones that tug at my heart strings and bring a tear to my eye every time I think of him.
Sorry about the outburst, I'm beginning to sound like a big girl..
Anyway, don't worry, it won't be too long before I'm back to normal, spending every waking moment thinking of different names to call you.:)
I wonder how many variations you can get on the name dotty??:p

Just to thank everyone here for all the posts. I can rarely contribute, but at CS today another customer was saying that the 342 mince had not gone through at 342. (It had stickers on it -- I can't find the offer on the web but I am fairly sure it was value mince.) It might be worth trying if you want the mince. The CS was just going to refund, but I piped up that she should get DTD. He wasn't sure as he said the policy was changing so I just said that my sister had told me all about it and if he didn't give it to her, head office would send it to her on a gift card. She got DTD and was a happy woman!
I was there because I had found a lone chicken which was not half price. It was sitting in an otherwise empty shelf alongside an identical one which was half price, so I decided to buy both. I was 'most surprised' to see that one of my chickens was double the price of the other! CS man wasn't wanting to give me DTD but said he would swop the chicken. I said that wasn't Tesco policy and we trundled along in a companiable manner to the display to view the empty shelf with the clear SEL. So one free chicken. CS man, to be fair, was really nice, though clearly not wanting to give DTD if he could help it. 'But since you do know Tesco policy...' he said!
And when I got to the car, I realised that the discount for my Pyroflam 2L casserole had not been taken off, so back I trotted to CS. This was a very happy overcharge of £14.01! Checkout manager came to see and was very relaxed about it. 'That's DTD', I said and she just agreed without any hassle, much to the relief of the CS man. So I got £28.02 back and, in effect, was paid to take the casserole dish away. Checkout manager did not know of any changes in the DTD policy.
Got 4 tins of free tomatoes too and used a £7 wys £50 till spit. (Was buying wine for a friend.) Downside is that I only got 4 green clubcard points even though I used large Tesco bags and checkout operator forgot to give me Pyrex coupons. Just as well I don't want any more Pyrex.
And it's a brilliant title for the thread!
(Can someone tell me what an HH coupon is please?)
A preview of T abandoning DTD perhaps?? If so, we are never shopping there again!!:mad:
Oh - so only the customers who know T's policy get DTD and the customers who don't only get the difference and not what T's policy says they should get. T selectively applying and not applying its policy if that is correct.
HH is "Helping hand" coupon - usually the coupon that, I find, in my circumstances, 'helps' me the least (or doesn't 'help' me at all - only tries to get me to spend more in order to 'save' an amount that still would mean me giving more money than I would by not taking up the coupon - key is selective use of coupons, only use those that save you money, not make you spend beyond what you should!).0 -
