Voucher offer on Tesco receipt

I have just got back from Tesco and have noticed on my receipt it has a bit that says "As a thank you from Clubcard you have qualified for a free entry voucher to a UK attraction in this transaction".

Usually I wouldn't take much notice of it, but was hoping to go to Thorpe Park later in the year.

Does anyone know what attraction(s) this is for? Also, how would I go about redeeming it? (I know you can exchange clubcard vouchers for entry tickets, but this seems to be something different)

If it is a "freebie" would I still be able to use my other vouchers (as long as I have enough!) to get another ticket?

Thanks for any help :) (and apologies if this is in the wrong place)

    You should have got a voucher along with your reciept. Thorp park is included along with Alton towers and chessington I believe. Pop back in and ask at CS desk why you didnt get your voucher

    Yeh it's a BOGOF voucher which you should have got with your receipt.

    Oh bug*er, wish i'd noticed before I left. I doubt i'll go back there for a week or so, but will take my receipt and hope they don't think i'm pulling a fast one!

    BOGOF is better than nothing I suppose. If I don't have enough vouchers in time i'd have to pay for the tickets anyway, so that's ok.

    Thanks for your replies :)

    Same here and i always forget to ask :rolleyes: Probably cos of the school vouchers offer at the moment, as well as green clubcard points, there's a lot of questions cashiers have to remember to ask

    Sorry to hear your local branches haven't been giving you the voucher, mine were trying to give me them when I didn't want them (not interested in a bogoff as my friend gets this discount anyway).
    A waist is a terrible thing to mind.

    I have two of these vouchers (well, I have one on the desk in front of me and there's another around here someplace) and I don't want them. Anyone want them?
    You can pm me if so -although I've never had a pm so it might take me a while to locate it and read it lol.


    ETA - Oh dear, I just saw the bit that says we can't swap details. That kinda stuffs that, then. Sorry :(
    No, Mr A, that is NOT 'Great news'!!:D
