That is wrong. I went yesterday and bought 12 Cd's in one hit, 3,000 points added at the bottom of the receipt. Went last night and bought another 10 for 2,500 points, so there doesn't seem to be a maximum number you can buy at a time either

Yeap - same here, i bought 10 in one gom got the 2,500 points.

The only "limit" depends on the store, i think my stores limit is 7 of the same item, but i went through self scan :T

Another points offer - 300 bonus points if you download Now 75 for £9.97. Not exactly a massive gain, but if you were thinking of getting it anyway...
318 points x 4 = 12.72 in deals?

Hi I went back to Tesco today to see if by chance I could see the forever love CD and I found 2 but I had to search for them and sure enough I got the 500 points for a £2 spend I was thinking I would hold onto the CDs until next valentines day and give them to a charity shop where they will likely make more money on them as they are wrapped. Thanks to the O.P. for this glitch. I think with Tesco glitches if you're not fast you're last! shrewdal

I too can confirm that it's 500 points per 2 CD's purchased.

The cheaper £3-4.50 CD's are labelled up in-store as being eligible for the bonus points, including some Katherine Jenkins CD's at £3.

Spent £46 on 12 CD's today, which will convert into £120 of virgin holidays vouchers for me. I'm hoping to do this a few more times before April 11 as it's effectively £3 towards my vacation for every £1 spent

Quick update on the CD front. Looks like Mr T has wised up to the bargain CDs being included and are trying to take them out. They no longer scan as being in the promotion as I have had to go to CS in 2 different stores (Eastbourne and Chichester), march them to the relevant rack and point at the stickers to get the points added. One other store (Shoreham) have crossed out the promotion details on the shelf.

Managed to get 1500 points via 6 CDs costing just under £30 so thanks to the OP. And it looks like you are due a big thanks from the lady in the Chichester store who had a basket full of CDs from the bargain chart! :rotfl:

If it shows on the shelf then go straight to Customer Services as I did as both stores honoured it. They may have changed the shelves now so you may be out of luck but worth a try.

I can't find if there is an upper limit on how many ink cartridges you can send off for points (a search on here came up with 30). I've found 9, and ordered 10 bags. Should I just send them all off and hope for the best?

It is 30 per household per calender year. Only certain cartridge models will give a 100 point credit (see Tesco site for a link to a list). Also it is quite common for only a proportion of the cartridges to result in a credit, this is normally put down to cartridges failing test on receipt, but can lead to disputes.
