  • Are sat navs included in this deal

    thanks

    I don't think so, I haven't had the benefit of the 'in store' leaflet yet but if you look here
    http://www.tesco.com/clubcard/clubcard/bigexchange.asp

    you'll be able to see the departments that you can use them in, if you click onto them they will take you to the items covered. Make sure you also check out the exclusions though. For instance, electric toothbrushes aren't included nor or monthly contract mobiles whereas PAYG mobiles are.

    sent hubby to double up yesterday, gave him
    2 x £10 vouchers, all were from our credit card accout.

    Good job i took he took the credit card with him, as she wouldn't have given him anything without the proof of the credit card.

    But she was having problems with the ticket machine, so she gave him, a gift vouchers with £40 on it.

    So does that mean i can use the gift card on anything that i want?

    thanks

    I used vouchers to buy a Siemens CS385 Triple Phone. Phone was reduced to £79.99. Intially exchanged vouchers to double up as advised by sales assistant to order phone via tesco direct. Then told by tesco direct that I could use the vouchers. Spoke to a manager who directed assistant to refund £60 in cash in exchange for vouchers. Able to purchase phone in the end.

    I reckon your DH has struck gold on this one - give the man a big kiss and a glass of something nice.

    Yes.

    Lets hope all the ticket machines go into meltdown and we all get this, now that would be good!

  • I'd been thinking Tesco vouchers weren't so good anymore - I used to get Legoland tickets, then magazines (which I often didn't get round to reading). Recently I realised I'd actually let some vouchers go out of date :eek:

    But this promotion is the bees knees! In the last few days I've changed up every voucher I had & got a pair of garden chairs & a garden sprinkler, new wood or metal curtain poles for almost every room (replacing the grotty plastic things the previous owners had left us), a new pair of curtains, a bedside lamp for ds, a retro desk lamp for me, new bathroom scales & a chandelier thingy for the bathroom(!)

    It's felt like winning a trolley dash prize - select anything you want & get it all free! Great stuff - I'll be saving all my points in the hope they do it again next year.

    I doubled up £10 of vouchers to buy Tefal Grill Pan (£11 reduced from £22) and tefal Frying pan (£10 reduced from £20) so had to paya total of £1.
    Today I doubled up £50 instore to buy a new mobile phone worth £99.95.
    It does pay to talk to different members of staff though. I checked my phone was in stock, then went to the customer service desk to change up my vouchers into 10 x £10. After changing them the sales assistant said I would only be able to use 9 of them and would have to pay the other £9.95 as you can only use the vouchers on things that are more than £10 and they are £10 each so the last one would be 5p short.
    When buying a PAYG phone you have to buy £10 top up at the same time but I was told the vouchers wounldn't count towards this.
    The man on the actual phone till though said nothing about this and just accepted the vouchers. So I paid £9.95 for the phone and £10 credit, bargain!

    http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.205-0270.aspx doubled up 100 pounds of coupons to buy this which came to 204.99 with delivery but it still rejected one of my coupons so I tried adding some baby wipes to take it over 200 without delivery but still wouldn't accept my last coupon. Ended up paying 14.99 cash for the chair (9.99 plus delivery). When I tried to use the rejected voucher on it's own it came up as already used so I hope they can sort it out in store.
