I always save mine for the deals but I guess if you genuinely don't want anything - my parents are in their 80's and have no need for any of the deals - then just spending them on groceries makes sense.

Selling them seems more trouble than its worth. You'd have to send them special delivery and then there would be problems if the buyer said they couldn't redeem them. Or you'd have to redeem them yourself and have the hassle of sending them the new vouchers....nah, I wouldn't bother, there's always something you can buy in Tesco.

Fair comment. But £2.50 off their groceries against £10 of rewards deals for a birthday or Xmas present to someone in the family? Which is the best MSE way?

Aghhhhh! Please don't tell me that you use the vouchers to reduce your shopping bill rather than converting them to rewards for 4 times the value.

Money off our grocery bill is of more value to us...so although the actual £'s may be less, it is what we need that matters!

I'd give in terryw!

You and I (and :money:!) know that you get more value for your money by swapping the clubcard points for deals or flogging them on ebay, but I guess some people just want an easy life and will use them in store for just face value.

It is not wanting an easy life, as you put it, I honestly don't spend that much money in Tesco, other than in food. I don't have a huge family and the presents we buy them tend not to be things from Tesco tbh. Surely being money savvy is using the deals/vouchers in a way that saves you and your family money! I would be getting 'deals' just to use the vouchers whereas shopping is something I need and so it is great to save money on it! Sometimes the potential increased 'saving' is irrelevant if it is on something I don't want or need, despite it being worth more in £ terms ?

so getting double cash from ebay than the face value isn't better money saving?

No, not for me. I feel the extra money I 'might' generate is simply not worth the hassle involved. I know many others who feel the same! I fully appreciate it might be for some people though and that's fine too!
Sorry OP for hijacking the thread .

Quite right,Orkney, selling vouchers on ebay is a hassle most of us can do without

As for my parents using the vouchers to buy presents, whilst there a lot of great deals, there's nothing there that's suitable to give us lot as gifts. I, personally, don't want RAC membership for my birthday.

5 children, 5 grandchildren, 2 great grandchildren - even if they found something it would seem a bit of favouritism if 1 person got a '4 times worth' gift.

So, OP, have you decided what best to do about ebay yet or have we talked you out of it

LOL I wasn't trying to talk OP out of it (I realise you might be being a bit ironic here lol!), just that money saving is not necessarily always the same for each person. To the OP selling on ebay may be great but not for others.x

I can't believe you want to sell them, I would love to have that much. I have saved so much through Tesco deals, Mag subscriptions, meals out, days out, goldsmith vouchers. I am hoping to use them for RAC this year, would never dream of using them at face value as I feel you can get so much more out of them.
