No, you are looking at the wrong bit. The T&C you are reading cover every scheme Virgin run. You need to read the T&C in section 12 (Wine Plans), not the part that you are looking in (Virgin Wines Club).

There is no minimum spend requirement.

Curious to hear Innovate was offered a different deal and a different credit amount. Maybe they are taking the Egg cashback into account, which they didn't before when working out what half my spend was.

They never offered me the choice between the basic and premium wine plans. I guess they just decided Innovate looked more classy than me!

Bear in mind that since you are offered the deal after placing your order you are taking a gamble that you will get it. Though even if you don't the Egg offer alone isn't bad.

I can get as far as seeing that it costs £81.50 [after Egg Money cashback] for the two cases of wine....

Does the £50.94 go onto a virgin account balance or it is paid as EM cashback? [I would assume the former and not the latter]..

I read "less than £5 per bottle" .."and will have a saving of 10%" as the original price being £5 + 10% and there is no further discount below [say £4.99]. So a Discount club case ends up costing:


(12 x £4.99) - the 'special price' minus £50.94 + £5.99 delivery = £14.93 From Virgin

And you get 10% cashback from Egg [or do you?] on this of £1.49...


So the extra case costs £13.44, I think...

Total: £94.94 for 36 bottles = £2.64 each

[Please correct me if this is wrong]

Assuming the Egg/VirginWine 20%-off-partner-offering is still on when you order that 'discovery case' (don't see a reason why it shouldn't), I think it could be an even better deal still! Depending on when & to what they will apply the 20% partner discount and the 1% cashback, the end result varies slightly, but the cost of the 3rd case could be less than the credit for the club membership......making it somewhere around £2.30 a bottle on all three cases!!!

It's like living in your own vineyard at that rate! Just without the back-breaking work to cultivate and make the wine :beer: (we need some smilies with wine glasses, please :j)

My BOGOF cases arrived yesterday - first bottle tested suggests the wine's of pretty decent quality, so this looks like a stonkingly good deal overall, every Egg Money cardholder should go for it!
