i have just seen the ad for exchanging tesco vouchers for cineworld tickets. the ad depicts 2 adults declaring they are skint and that they cant afford any treats.
they then head off to the pictures..... with the voice over man saying about the tesco/cineworld offer.
when i click onto tesco clubcards it says its only for child tickets.
but to me this didn`t come across in the advert.
for a brief moment i thoguth what a wonderful offer...
what does anyone else think
cheers

My first attempt at a link....could go very Pete Tong:D
Googled, got this........but none near me, and in Tesco's logic cost that's £12.00. :eek:
Enjoyed my first 'no kids' cinema vist for 4 years last week, and enjoyed Avatar so much I feel a repeat visit coming on.:cool:
I've never used my Orange Wednesday's thingy so must investigate that, coz even if you can get an adult ticket, £12 of my holiday/treats budget each is too much, IMO.Not just a sucker for sweeties..:o0 -

We've had adult tickets before and it looks like they are still available on the website. I found it cheaper though to get Pizza Express vouchers and go to the cinema on an Orange Wednesday, pay £5.60 for 2 of us to watch a film then get a 2-4-1 meal afterwards and pay with the vouchers.If At First You Don't Succeed, Call It Version 1.00

My wife, being Russian (and able to give MSE Martin a run for his money, imo), loved the fact my mobile's on Orange because of the Orange Wednesdays deal. We'd often go to our Odeon (but Cineworld do it too) to watch a movie together.0

Had adult Cineworld tickets from Tesco before... I think the OP should apologise to Sir Terry Leahy: [EMAIL="terry.leahy@uk.tesco.com"]terry.leahy@uk.tesco.com[/EMAIL] by email for the defamation of his corner shop. :rolleyes:My farts hospitalize small children0
