Gerard,
 
I know you might have some concerns re using credit cards online.  However,
using them on a place like theTesco website is as secure a place to use them
as anywhere.   Remember, thousands of people make purchases via this website
every week, and if there were any problems  I think you would have heard of
them by now.
 
Using a credit card online is very safe and secure, indeed probably a lot
more secure than handing your credit card to a sales person in a shop or
restaurant.
 
Tim

no hastle Joanne, Do you know if using the 3v vouchers are as easy to use as
credit cards . For instance besides using them on other websites for
purchasing specific items could I use 3v vouchers on the Tesco website?

Hi Gerry
Maybe, you could give me your credit card details instead?
I have never booked a flight on-line and am unfamiliar with the procedure
for booking train tickets so, I will leave this task to someone more
experienced than me.

Well done Joanne!  All I need now is your Lzer/credit/store debit card.
Seriously as one who stays away from plastic money as much  as poss9ible,
has anyone ever used those credit card type vouchers that can be used for
paying for products on line and do tesco accept them for instance - I expect
that it would be problematic to a point unless you know that you were
purchasing something specific and had the credit voucher to the exact
pricei.e a voucher for 49.99 euro...
 
Also Joanne, any chance you might give an onchore! with the theme of booking
flights or trains on line

Hi all

 

I have put together a step-by-step tutorial on how to shop on the new Tesco
website using jaws.  I am using jaws 11 with Internet explorer 8 but, the
keystrokes should be the same for people using earlier versions of jaws.  I
have tried to make the process as straight forward as possible using the
jaws quick navigation keys to take advantage of headings and forms.

 

I am going to begin by giving instructions on how to turn off pictures from
being displayed in Internet Explorer as, I feel that this increases the
speed of the Tesco site.

1.  Go to internet explorer.
2.  Press alt and T and then, up arrow once to internet options and press
enter.
3.  Press control and tab a number of times until you come to the advanced
dialog box.  You are now in a tree view where there are different options
that
you can set to control Internet Explorer.
4.  down arrow until you come to an option that says "show pictures".  It is
on by default so, if you press the spacebar, you will turn it off.
5.  Now, tab until you come to apply and press enter.
6.  Tab until you come to the Ok button and press enter.
 

Now, we'll go shopping with Tesco!

1.  Open Internet explorer

.  Press control and O and type in the website

www.tesco.ie

2.  Press insert and f7 to bring up a list of links.  Now, press G to get to
groceries and press enter.

3.  We are now at the log-in page.  Press F to get to the log-in form.  The
first box will ask you for your e-mail address.  Fill this in, not
forgetting to turn on forms mode,  and then press tab to get to the password
field.  Type in your password and then, tab to the sign in button and press
enter.

4.  If you use H to cycle through headings, you will come across one that
welcomes you to the site so, you know that you have been successfully logged
in.

5.  With the new site, it is now possible to book a delivery slot before you
do your shopping.  You can reserve the delivery slot for 2 hours which
should be enough time to get the shopping done.

We will do this now.

Press insert and f7 and then, press B until you come to "book a delivery
slot" and press enter.

he delivery slots are laid out in table format.  If you press T, jaws will
bring you to a table containing delivery slots for the next 7 days.  It is
possible to book delivery slots for a week or 2 in advance but, we won't
worry about that for now.

If you press control alt and right arrow, you will be able to go through the
dates that are available.  

When you reach the one you want, Press control alt and down arrow to read
through the times that are available.  Jaws will say unavailable for the
slots that have already been taken.  When you find the one you want, press
the space bar to select it.

Now, if you press H, you will hear jaws telling you  "The following delivery
slot has been reserved" and if you press down arrow, you will be able to
confirm that the delivery slot you selected has been reserved for you.

There is a link below this if you wish to remove the delivery slot.

6.  Now, we're ready to go shopping!

If you press B, you will come to a button that says "begin shopping button",
press enter on this.

If you press H, you will come to a heading that says "this week at Tesco".
This contains some of Tesco's special offers.  You can read through them
using H as each product has a heading. 

Among the offers this week is "Cadbury Dream fingers 125G".  I have pressed
enter on this to find out what the offer is and, it is, buy one get one
free!

Press H to come to the product name Cadburys.  Now use the up/down arrow to
read the offer.

If you would like to add this item to your basket, Press H to get to the
heading "add to basket".  Now, use the down arrow key until you get to "how
many".  The next edit box has the number 1 in it and if you are happy to
just buy one, then you would down arrow again to the add to basket button
and press enter.

On the groceries homepage, there are links for the Tesco shelves such as
fresh food, bakery, frozen food ETC.  If you press l, jaws will bring you to
the list of shelves.

7.  If you have shopped with Tesco before, you will have had favourites,
that is, products that you frequently buy.

to get to favourites, you press insert and f7 and press F for favourites and
press enter.

You can view favourites by department, by order or by list.  I prefer
viewing my favourites by list so I choose the link "all favourites" and
press enter.

Each product has its own heading and, there is a corresponding heading after
it with options to add the product to the basket or remove the product from
favourites.

My first product is "golden delicious apples loose class 1".  If I press H,
I will be brought to the "add to basket option.  I will now down arrow until
I come to type and down arrow again to the edit box which contains the
number 1.  I will put my forms mode on and delete the number 1 and insert
the number 5.  I will then tab once to "add to basket" and press enter.  If
I down arrow again, it will say "5 in basket".

8.  The search feature of the Tesco site is quite good.  Press Insert and f7
and press G for groceries and press enter.

If you press F, you will get to the search form which says "I'm looking
for".  Press enter to turn on forms mode and type in the name of a product
like "brown bread" and press enter.  Like favourites, each result has a
heading with a corresponding heading to add the product to the basket.

9.  Now, it is time to review the shopping basket before going to checkout.
Press H until you come to the shopping basket heading.  There are different
ways to view the basket, the easiest for jaws users is "full basket view".
Down arrow until you come to this link and press enter.

The shopping basket is in the format of a table.  use alt control with the
arrow keys to navigate around the table and see what products have been
added to the basket.

Under the table, there is some text describing how many club card points you
have received, how much you have saved and the guide price of your shopping.

There is a link to empty your shopping basket if you want to do this.

10.  It is now time to part with some money!

Press insert and f7 and then press C for checkout and press enter.

If you use H to jump to headings,  you can read the following information
which will have been filled in when you registered with Tesco:

Address where shopping will be delivered

contact details

What time shopping will be delivered

Now, press insert and f7 again and choose the link "proceed to summary".
This will give a summary of your order.

If you are happy, press B to get to the button "proceed to payment" and
press enter.

Press f to get to the payment form which you will fill in by turning on the
forms mode with enter.

 

You must fill in the name on card, card number, card expiry date and
security code.

When details have been filled in, press b to get to the proceed to
confirmation button and press enter.

This completes the tutorial.

 

I do hope this is of some help.  It is not the most straight forward site to
use but, with perseverance, it is definitely possible to do a weekly shop.
I have not covered everything in this tutorial as that would be impossible.

 

Joan Ann.
