    mine has been cancelled too but it let me use the 200 points voucher again for another book....ordered this one instead;

    http://www.tesco.com/books/product.aspx?R=9780486268651

    This is a paperback, the code for 200 points is for HARD backs

    EDIT: Yep code is def only valid for hardback books (which the JK Rowling book was sadly)

    So shouldn't work on the 2 suggested on this thread unfortunately :(

    Still, could be worth a bash :D

  • Mine cancelled too.

    It got a lot of us looking at books on Tesco.com and a good proportion of us would have bought something else as well. Also they now have a list of registered card holders who actively follow MSE threads on their daft deals and if they have cancelled orders that far back maybe they never intended to supply.

    If you think that is far fetched have you seen their ads which offer to load up your online basket with what you normally buy in store. Depends on how much you value your privacy I suppose. Start worrying if Tesco start to run any government functions. "Big Tesco is watcing you"

    Use your judgement, and above all, be honest with yourself. :)

    That code is DEFINITELY for hardbacks and that Christmas Carol is definitely a paperback. But what the heck - it appeared to accept the code so I ordered it anyway. If the worst comes to the worst I will have a 90p Dickens classic :)

    Mine cancelled as well but more worrying is that I had other books in my order and as the free delivery has now finished my order without the Beadle books is a lot more than it was with it.

    I've cancelled the lot.

    I managed to use the code again for this book which only costs 49p and is currently in stock.:j
      Tommy Donbavand Scream Street: Fang of the Vampire (Link)


      You could also try these ones if you want to save a further 1p (all at 48p but may have limited appeal :rotfl:): -
      Fingers crossed that this one is not cancelled.
