Massive Tesco points loophole. Spend £27, get 6 bottles of wine & £36 Tesco Rewards

jeferey

I've just totted up what I managed to get since Thursday - 18 bottles on Monistrol and 13 bottles of Torres (all I could get in 4 visits :eek:) for a total of 7350 points. Used £45 doubled up for £90 off and £48.67 of MOC's for a total spend of £63.56 and gained £294 worth of deals - fantastic :T. This was a great find and I have a garage full of wine that will last for months and months (and 3 x 5p off petrol vouchers).

Thanks to mustbemoreorganised and MoneySaver m_will! I have now gained £637 towards my Honeymoon for roughly £500 spend, and a shed load of wine/cava!

A great deal at the right time for me. Thanks!:beer:

Can anyone confirm that the offer is not valid at the Express (Petrol Station with Shop) stores?

Mine has the wine, with the 25% offer, but no mention of extra points.

The staff told me that the bigger stores did the extra points, but not them.

Wonder if it's possible to buy there, take it back for a refund at a bigger Mr Ts, then buy it again straight away - seems cheeky somehow

slightly stupid question, is the wine even nice? Never drunk this one before, so a little concerned to buy it if it's like vinegar....

Not had any myself - but lots of posts on here saying it's nice, people's regular tipple etc. And my gf toured the Torres winery once and loves the stuff, so I don't think it's vinegar...

A quick question guys

I went to my local store this morning and nothing- they have been out of stock since 2nd July....

I asked Customer services for a raincheck but they weren't having any of it.

However I bought some other items I needed and it came out with a tiill spit for double points on my next shop.

Now if I was to use my cc+ to purchase the 6 bottles of wine with the points offer (if I can ever get my hands on them) and also use this double points till spit, would that effectively mean I'd get quadruple the amount of points????

25% offer on wine is over now. Makes the deal a little more expensive.

CC+ only gives you double points on your purchase amount, not on bonus points.

I m a new convert to buying items for the extra Clubcard points, and new to asking Tesco to take other shops vouchers (did well on Morrisons from the Sun) both thanks to MSE. Tesco must hate me as I use Asda for food and only go to Tesco to spend vouchers.

I rang my local Tesco on Saturday to see if they had managed to set aside the six bottles of Torres Vina Sol that I 'ordered'. Bought the six Torres plus two bottles of a New Zealand white (half price) that was out of stock earlier in the week: total cost £47.

Tesco then deducted 25% of the total (£12) whereas I thought I was only going to get 25% off multiples of six! Used my last £10 double-up voucher, the £5 Boots voucher and £3 of luncheon vouchers. Paid only £16 in cash for eight bottles and received 939 Clubcard points!! :beer:

So far this year I have
£9 of luncheon vouchers on three for a tenner deal (cash spent £1)
£6 of luncheon vouchers on three for a tenner deal (cash spent £4)
£20 of Clubcard double-up vouchers on six bottles .... twice
Been given two bottles of red wine by Barclays
£40 of Clubcard vouchers on a dozen bottles - 25% (cash spent £3)
£18 of mixed vouchers on eight bottles - 25% (cash spent £16).

So that is forty bottles of wine from a total spend of £24! If my maths is correct I still have just under £25 on my Clubcard ready to be doubled-up. :money:
