    If this is the offer for Kumala wine, it ended at the end of October 2005. I sent 8 vouchers off for 2 x £5 vouchers around a week before the end of the offer, but according to the promotion people, they arrived on 2nd November 2005, so they couldn't process them. They thoughfully returned them. I tore some hair out, then put them in my recycling bin.


    similar offer, but new, so watch out for the closing date on the packs!!!!
    Especially in shops that may not have a quick turnover of these type of goods.

    The token was red and is now, I believe green!!
    ACII and Chartered so now I can focus on learning to play my beautiful Sax. 🎷
  • Tokens are now green and the end date is 30/06/2006.


    I thought i had done well in Tescos getting Shepherds Pies at 2 for £2 but in Morrisons the sausages are now £1.25 buy one get one free so a total layout of £2.80 (including cost of posting tokens) for your £5 wine voucher.
    WHOOOOSHHHHHHHHH……..
    Blimey what was that ?
    That was your life mate
    Oh I wasn’t quite ready can I have another go ?
    Sorry mate only one per person.

    Hi guys,

    OH has not eat red meat for about 10 years, and so our shopping/cooking/eating habits mean that I hardly do, and don't mind.

    Over the years a lot of veggie products have gone in the shopping basket.

    But as OH always says, just cos something make some sort of health claim in one area, they might not be telling you about somethng else, and it does not mean they are any better for you than a nice - you get what you pay for - piece of meat.

    Because reading the ingredients, some things never go in the basket anymore.

    The Linda McCartney products we know of or have tried all seem be made of hydrogenated vegatable fat, known to newspaper readers as the "killer trans fats".

    OH says that if it came to it (desert island, death row dinner, me or the dog, etc), he would probably rather eat a peice of meat, because at least he has more confidence in what is in it, and the meat would do less harm than hydrogenated fat.

    Just so you know ...

    I'd write to Kumala and explain it was a couple of days and say you feel this reflects on them and they may send you a voucher or two.
    Nice to save.
  • Thanks for this -it prompted me to go to Iceland today so I also saved a fortune on my shopping ;)

    No sausages left with vouchers but got the sausage rolls and chilli non carne - never goes wrong with 3 veges in the house :D
