    I really don't understand why people keep repeating what is written on the first post like it's new information. :laugh:


    Looks a good offer, debating whether we need a tv for kitchen or not when we move into our new house, we do want the MFI vouchers though lol.

    Could be worth selling it on if you didn't want the TV itself.. i'm sure you could make more than £16 or whatever it would cost after the cashback site is used.

    Hi Folks

    Could you buy more than one and get 1000 points for each one on the same account?

    Yes
    But I imagine you would have to do it as two separate transactions.

    It's fairly simple:

    The telly costs £59.99. That's the amount of real money that you have to part with to get your hands on it. That's for online orders - this offer doesn't seem to be in store.

    The current promotion gets you 1000 Tesco Clubcard points on top of the 59 that you normally get. When you get your Clubcard statement, you'll get vouchers that are worth £10.59 to spend in Tesco. (But only if you have a Clubcard and enter the number when you buy the telly)

    Tesco Clubcard Deals allow you to exchange your vouchers for other things (entry to theme parks and attractions, RAC membership). Many of these offers have a conversion that £1 Clubcard vouchers = £4 of tokens. That's where people get the idea that 1000 points are worth £40.

    Go to http://www.tesco.com/clubcard/deals/ for details of how the Clubcard Deals work. In most cases, you need to exchange your Clubcard vouchers for the special tokens.

    Slightly off topic but where can I find the cheapest DVD & VCR portable TV?

    Wife has a lot of old videos so we need VCR & DVD.

    Tesco's is about £165 (currently less '£40' for the extra 1000 clubcard tokens).

    It's only for the bedroom so picture quality is not important, although it needs to be silver not black.
    Before you buy Google Nest or British Gas Hive check out ESPproMon the Android and iOS Smartphone app that helps you build the same system from just £30.

    Looks as though they may be sold out. If anyone succeeds in ordering one after 8.30pm, please would you post here!

    That's the Toshiba at £59.99 of course - they have plenty left at £1999+!

    Send in your CC couchers and ask them to add them back onto your account. They will do this as many times as you like. Say you want to save them all for a year. (4 mailings). Ave cust gets £30, saved 4 times = £120 x 4 for deals =
    £480 in say Cosmos holiday vouchers or Hogmanay in a Hilton in Edinburgh free!!!!!

    Now THAT is incredibly useful to know! :j I am trying to save enough in vouchers to get my son driving lessons but its taking me a while to do it and I was afraid some of my vouchers would expire before I got there :T
    I love this site! :j

    are aware that you can gain extra points for shopping on line, there are several websites that give you a code for when you spend x amount, you will recieve 1000 points. its usually £75.00. I have just started this and have over 4000 and have only ordered 4 times. it is also worth knowing that to make an order of £75.00 the total includes all items in the basket, so if you have any deductions to come off the bill (multibuys or bogofs) they show up after the checkout so the bill will be less than £75.00.

    I am sure thats as clear as mud, oh the websites are:
