    Its hit and miss I think. My first order was for £45 after sale discounts and all (didnt know about mail) went thru.

    I then ordered some calvin kleins for my oh on his new account, the 500 points didnt work. It didnt work as i was already using a similar code, so I would suggest using the points code first - particularly if you really save them (I am obsessed with them - pyschologically it means I can upgrade to Hilton suites at a 1/4 of the price!)

    This offer should really be a thread on its own, its better than the original ops £5 in store.

    Its a great glitch!! Just hope its honoured - with Tesco who knows!

    Shirley what codes did you use to get your discounts? I cant get that much! I also cant get the 500 extra points to work
    We cant post codes so here goes!
    They are on this thread but I will repost in discounts - give me a couple of mins:beer:

    I did 4 orders, 3 at £21, 1 at £20.50 (I only used 2 paper codes, use 2 for £40.01+ and 3 for £50.01+)

    I found the codes were saying conditions not met even though over £40.01. I found if I added a non wanted £20 or whatever item to the order, input all codes, then went back to basket and removed then non wanted item, it sorted itself out :)

    I'm hoping these will slip through due to being a Bank Holiday and extra orders from single use of codes :)

    An amazing glitch - well found. :beer: Have thanked OP. :A

    My order:
    Subtotal:

    £52.00
    Postage & packaging:

    £3.95
    Discount:

    -£25.01
    ORDER TOTAL: (including £2.90 VAT)

    £30.94

    All the codes worked for me so also got the bonus 500 points. Hope it all goes through ok and they don't cancel.

    You add them one at a time but you can only get the £10 one to work if your shop comes to £30+ before its deduction, hope that makes sense. Below is my order summary and I didn't manage to get the 500 points to work - perhaps someone has an insight into what triggers that?

    Items:£48.00
    Postage & packaging:£3.95
    Discount:-£28.95
    ORDER TOTAL: (including £3.42 VAT)£23.00
    Clubcard points earned:46

    thanks so much shirley,
    i used the points code first, then the 2 £5 off codes and finally the £10 off.
    i saved £23 and paid abt the same for alot of stuff from the sale.
    thanks so much guys :j

    I managed to get all the codes but the £10 one to work by copying and pasting them in.

    However just realised the by doing this I was pasting an extra space at the end of the code. Didn't think it would make a difference, but when I manually typed it in the code worked fine.

    Just an idea, if you are having trouble with some.

    Also... my basket subtotal was only £47 before deductions so you don't need to spend over £50 for all the codes to work.

    thanks so much for this - managed to get £46 worth of stuff for £21. This was the cheapest I could get to make all the codes work.
