Has anybody used tesco clubcard deals to book ferry?
Just curious about whether anybody has done this as it seems like a good way to save money. For me it costs about £240 to do a return trip to Ireland. For this I'd need about £60 worth of clubcard vouchers (as you get 4 times as many deal tokens so 4 * 60 =240). Obviously collecting £60 worth of vouchers is difficult but…
