    This is obviously a great offer as there are loads of BOGOFs at the moment. However, I've just thought of other products you could buy:

    Radox Heavenly bath bubbles, £2.99, with a Money Back guarantee on it if you don't like it, and

    Dentyl mouthwash, £3.99, also with a Money Back guarantee.

    That way, you'd get even more freebies! (Remember to get separate receipts, though, if buying both products!)

    (More info on the Try Me Free thread on Freebies board :))

    Spud 30 I remember the beef in grvy it was great wasn't it - I too obly came in on the end of it and only managed a few packs as all tescos were selling out - I do hope they do put somethingout like that again - people where buying loads and just giving it away to homeless hostels etc as the points were worth loads - I think it was buy 3 atr 65p and get 300 extra points??? something like that anyway.

    It was something like that.

    It got me a lovely new bed anyway, but there were folks going for 2 weeks to Florida on it at the time.

    Here's hoping for another like it, anyway :D:D:D

    The beef in gravy offer was superb, I joined MSE just as the offer became known on these boards and I managed to get a king size bed, mattress, bunk beds, 2 single mattresses and a computer chair all FREE !!!!!! using my points. We had lots of beef and gravy to eat but somehow that shimmering, multi-coloured beef wasn't too bad actually !!!

    Wish they would do another similar offer. I am trying to cut back at the mo due to the fees for building regs etc but I will be going to get my goodies once I receive these toiletries vouchers.

    Just got back from the above store and they had a pile of the leaflets on the Pharmacy counter.

    Also, I have a family member working in Llantrisant store and I've been told that staff are taking the vouchers for themselves. My relative only thought to take one for herself and one for me.:( :(

    Hello Starb - nice to see another person from South Wales, OH works in Bosch which is just by Llantrisant.

    I just hope that the staff aren't briefed on this before I hit the tills at my Tesco in Cardiff.

    D'oh!! Went Tesco for my nan today, and she wanted three lots of Dove body wash BOGOFS, plus sure deodrants, but there were NO vouchers!! I was so annoyed, as they stocked them the last time they did it! Argh! LOL

    Oh well, at least a SA today gave me £15 off my clothing!

    Massive thankyou to the OP. :j :j

    I've just got back from Tesco Prestwich and bought the following

    2x Face wipes (£1.49 each - 2 for £2)
    2x St Ives facial scrub (£3.99 - BOGOF)
    2x Shampoo (£1.84 - BOGOF)
    4x Imperial Leather Shower gel (£1.48 - BOGOF)
    2x Lynx Shower Gel (£1.88 - BOGOF)

    Sub total = £24.32 (but only cost £12.67 after deals)

    Used 10 x 50points, 5 x £1 and 2 x £2.50

    Grand total =£2.67 + 500 points (£20 in deals) :beer: :beer: :beer:

    I went to one of the tills and gave in 17 vouchers for this, I chose the doziest looking cashier :rotfl: and he took the lot. I did mention before he scanned them that I had all these vouchers but I was buying all the products and he out them to one side and scanned them all at the end.

    I'm going back tomorrow to buy more (not greed, it helps me for C*****mas) as the IL shower gels are really good.

    PLUS ... I have a few of these leaflets over so first 10 to PM me their name and address can have a leaflet each. I will send them all first class tomorrow, but please only ask for one if you are willing to use it. (If you use self scan, just scan the same voucher)

    MSE has saved me a fortune over the years, now I can give something back!!
