The code is www.keytel.co.uk/telegraphoffer The password today is 'Malaga'. This is my first, i'm rather excited!

Thank you so much for this!!

I've had a look and unfortunately it is not possible to check availibility online. As with any offer, I much prefer the flexibility of playing with dates and flights at the same time and getting a good bargain. In this case, calling seems a bit strange to get the best bargain.

As I had suspected the Granada and Santiago Paradores are excluded. It is a shame.

Anyone want (to buy ??) a copy of today's TIMES newspaper ?


Looked at this Times wine offer today when in M&S getting a "Dine In for £10" deal.

On the display near the Times newspapers were bottles of LURTON LA CHAPELLE ... AND last weeks offer

This week (until Sunday 24th August) it saves you £3.99 off a bottle of BLUFF HILL SPARKLING ROSÉ
http://www.marksandspencer.com/gp/product/B000QI0AA6/ref=sr_11_1/203-4879434-1978325?ie=UTF8&n=42966030&keywords=bluff%20hill%20ros%C3%A9&mnSBrand=core&numItemsFound=1

I asked if they were still on offer given I'd prefer it to this weeks, pointing out that yesterday should have been the last day.
They scanned a bottle and a copy of the Times - YEP - £5.70
Thanked them and said I'd be back

Whilst wandering round I wondered if the current wine offer of 25% OFF 6 BOTTLES would work as well.

So went back and got them to scan 6 bottles.
Each scan added £8.99 to the total ..... 5 = £44.95
Then the 6th .... + £8.99 = £53.94 ....
..... minus 25% for 6 kicks in so less £13.49 = £40.45

Enquired if they had a copy of the recent M&S Wine magazine with the additional 10% off wine coupon ...

VERY VERY nice SA went and got her own personal copy out of her locker ..
.. came back and scanned it .... and I got another 10% off .......

... of the ORIGINAL total of £53.94 - namely £5.39 ....

£40.45 less £5.39 = £35.06

THEN handed over 6 copies of The Times .....

Sadly this added £4.20 to the total ..... £35.06 + £4.20 = £39.26

BUT THEN the TIMES offer of £3.99 discount PER BOTTLE come OFF ...

.... £39.26 less a HUGE £23.94 leaving just a PALTRY .............

£15.32


That's a STAGGERING, BEAUTIFUL and FANTASTIC £2.55 a bottle.

I was so ecstatic I went back and cleared the shelves of the last 6 bottles !

So 12 bottles of quality £8.99 wine for £30.64 .......

.......... now if I could just sell 12 copies of the Times :rotfl: .......
....... that would make them only £1.85 a bottle ! :eek: :eek: :eek:

ANYONE ?


So the moral of this story is - if you really like the Times offer wine ....
then it could be very worthwhile buying them in SIXES !
