15 btls of wine £39.99

I got the mixed case. What I've tried so far ranges from good to drinkable, a bit better than I'd expect from cheap supermarket bottles... With £11 quidco, it's a great deal (you get a good free corkscrew, too - I much prefer the lever type to 'normal' ones).

All sounding good!

I'll reserve judgment till it arrives, but I am certainly looking forward to enjoying a few glasses of wine on an evening without having to dash to the shops in the rain!

I've got to agree - Laithwaites quality seems to be far better than Tesco's. I'd say Tesco's are far more likely to dump a load of mediocre wine in a 'sale' than Laithwaites - but you have to look at what's available at the time you're buying!

Same here, I often go for the mixed "mystery" cases and have NEVER been disappointed.

The corkscrew lasts for about 50 bottles then breaks. I had one.

Don't forget ASDA has loads of wine on offer from £2 a bottle. I got Aussie shiraz at 14.5% for £2 a bottle. Rivercrest Californian cabernet £2.24. There were loads of others as well as 3 for £10 deals. Then you get 5% off for 6 or more.

Worth thinking about as well if you did not want a 15 case

I did get a case from laithwaites once. (hence the corkscrew). Cancel the membership the day you get the case, or you will forget and end up with a £70 case on the doorstep a few weeks later

I just saw this on Pigsback and came on here to search for it too.


I got my credit card statement through from Halifax and they had enclosed a £50 off voucher for Laithwaites saying I can get the 15 bottle case for £39.99 with the voucher, rather than the full price of £89.99

And there is me (stupidly) thinking that Halifax are being generous when its on offer anyway :eek:

"Cancel the membership the day you get the case, or you will forget and end up with a £70 case on the doorstep a few weeks later"

I have a club membership (through BA) and I only order when I want to, no obligation at all, and each 12 bottles gives me 250 BA air miles. I get brilliant deals every month or so and never had a dodgy bottle yet.
I'm not a wine buff at all so rely on suggetsions, although I do have my favourites from them now.

@moneypooh, this is a wine plan rather than a club membership; by joining you agree they will send you wine every quarter. You can, of course, opt out at any time, but they're relying on people lethargy to forget

Just updated the discount/voucher thread as I got a £50 voucher with an amazon order.
