Speech & Pronunciation

It is valid to pronounce with in "wɪθ" & "wɪð"? And pronounce "says" as "saids"?

I have checked the dicitionary already. And that is what it says. If this is true, is there any special requirement when using each of them? Or both are interchangeable?

Secondly, I sometimes hear people pronounce "says" as "saids" or "sads", is this correct?

Unvoiced with is more common in AmE than BrE. There's no d in says. The final s is voiced, though.
