    AND YET ANOTHER ONE !!!

    Just seen this on the TV (ITV1) on Carlton Central (West Midlands) so not sure exactly which regions will have the offer

    Only caught a fleeting glimpse so some details a bit vague


    A tribute to JOHN LENNON - a double CD I think (could be double DVD ??)

    Sunday Express was mentioned - not sure but could be Vol1 this week and Vol 2 next Sunday

    Anyway keep a lookout if you're a Lennon fan.

    I'll update/correct if I see the advert again.

    Yes part 1 Sunday part 2 next week.

    Indeed - thanks for keeping this thread going. Managed to pick up the Cary Grant films from the Daily Express this weekend.

    It's only when you are "forced" to buy papers for the free DVDs that you realise how poor some of the weekend papers really are (IMHO).

    Rufus.

    Yes I often have 2 or 3 papers when they have an offer terrible waste of paper.
  • The Free HIGHLANDER DVD is NOT in the News of the World in North West this week. It is free Next Week, I wasted 85p as I normally wouldn't buy that garbage but there is an ad in to say it is in next week, I think we get the Conan DVD free in the Sun next week too. I did notice however that The People had a FREE Carry on up the Khyber DVD free today.
    Cheers,
    Ian.

    If the newspaper contains a CD/DVD it is normally emblazoned all over the front page otherwise there wouldn't be much point to using this giveaway ploy to entice you to buy it, if it was just a hidden surprise inside.

    I always check to see if it's inside - even if it is advertised on the front - since occasionally they can be missing - if I don't find one I don't buy it.

    I got Conan yesterday and Highlander today (Derby - Midlands (East))

    However The People did not have Carry On Up The Khyber in it today.

    I knew The People was going to have this somewhere in the country - heard it in the early hours of this morning on BBC Radio 5 on the film review bit.

  • Yes , I normally do that but it was Sunday morning and I was just coming back from my early morning bike ride so I nipped into my local newsagents and just asked for them. I normally get my papers from supermarkets and check that they're there. The Sunday papers are quite a challenge to carry under your arm on a bike.

    Sent hubby out this morning for papers - we never buy newspapers;)

    I've now got the fantastic Art Garfunkel cd from the Mail on Sunday and the Highlander DVD from News of the World (can never have too much of Christopher Lambert :j )

    Many thanks for the tip.

  • In the Telegraph on Saturday 28th Jan, a CD of Mozart music, and on Sunday in the Sunday Telegraph a second CD of Mozart music.

    ps Happy Birthday Wolfgang
  • And in the Sun on Saturday (in Yorkshire, Granada, Tyne Tees, Border, Scotland, ROI and Ulster) it's a free DVD of " Conan the Destroyer ". In Sunday's News of the World, there can be only one " Highlander".
    I can't take any more of the Sun this week - I have enough DVDs to keep me going, although I did like the Sudoku puzzles!
