    Just picked up 14 x "Oxygene" and 10 x "Cold" all for £8 each (even though the Cold was marked up at £13 and Oxygene marked up at £10).

    Converted £95 vouchers into £190 coupons and got back :j 12190 :j clubcard points

    Thanks to all of you guys

    what an eye opener !... you guys are so switched on and good on you . but how on earth do you save enough points for a holiday . how much would you have to spend every week in tescos to get a holiday .... surely it must take years to save that much :confused:

    Please tell me you also did Double the difference on these...

    You'd have got £100 back on the cold and £56 back on Oxygene as the SELs were so wrong

    I've been round a few in Greater Belfast and not seen any :rolleyes2
    Think its the way our stores dont have a proper pharmacy/chemist in-store like the English shops have.
