Why do people insist on starting new threads on subjects that already exist? Maybe I am under the influence of too much cheap Tesco wine but would be better served under 'Tesco Codes II' methinks.

I have just ordered some of the aforementioned cheap wine so that will be me too in a few days;)

What I have done as a BG, is i am trying to keep all the tesco GROCERY codes in one place and there will hopefully evolve separate code threads for WINE, ELECTRICALS, BOOKS etc.
Hope this will suit y'all.;)

Thanks. Just used code xx-YW4G successfully

Is there a minimum spend on this code? Its just that I am at the checkout and it says *You have some eCoupons/eVouchers that cannot be used with this order. To see them click here

My basket value is £31.14 all BOGOF's plus £3.99 delivery

I thought I read on another thread that this code was for first orders only not £50 spend

TESCO, Britain’s largest supermarket chain, has targeted Asda in one of its most aggressive price-cutting campaigns yet.
Shoppers in Hull have been sent vouchers giving them £10 off their shopping if they spend just £30 with the chain — a 33% discount. Rival supermarket bosses believe the promotion could cost Tesco millions of pounds.

The vouchers are thought to have been delivered to more than 20,000 homes in Hull. Households have received four vouchers, entitling them to up to £40 in discounts over a four-week period.

Although this is great news for shoppers in Hull — which has been the scene of a bitter battle between Asda and Tesco — the promotion may concern the competition authorities, which disapprove of “local pricing”, where consumers in areas with little competition subsidise people in more competitive areas.

In 2003 Tesco assured the Competition Commission it had a “national pricing policy” and charged the same prices for its products in all its stores.

A Tesco spokesman insisted the £10-off promotion was part of its “normal pricing activity”.

He said: “It is a competitive business. We are simply saying to shoppers in the area, ‘come and try Tesco’.”

Tesco has sent similar vouchers to customers in specific areas after the opening of a new store by rivals. However, supermarket bosses believe this is the first time that the group has used such aggressive tactics as part of a wider campaign.

Asda has been running a number of in-store promotions in the area.

Market-share figures to be published this week are expected to show that Asda, owned by Wal-Mart, has continued to lose sales to Tesco in recent months.

Last month Tesco announced record pre-tax profits for 2004 of more than £2 billion.

System

and they complain when online codes are banded about on websites!!! - they ought to be grateful.

I used £15 off £50 - seemed to go through okay but the guide price is strange - on the confirmation screen my order had dropped from 16 items to 5 and guide price £52 to £40, then the confirmation email is £54 guide price? Not to worry - I know that 15 of my items are on offer with BOGOF etc :cool: .

I thought I would place a second order as well to use the other £15/£50 voucher in my account while I remember (£15.98 for a case of 24 Stella Artois sounds like a good deal :beer: ), but when I went back in, it is now showing Thursday rather than Wednesday as next available delivery. A shame really as it could have saved the driver coming back! As most slots were available on Wednesday when I placed my order 5 minutes ago, seems a little strange that they are all suddenly booked up?

On the e-mail receipt/confirmation it shows the £15/£50 evoucher and shows under value "£15 Ean eCoupon" does anyone know what Ean stands for?

Many thanks

This is because they won't let you book two deliveries for the same day, don't know why. Apparently there is a way around that but I can't remember it! I'm sure someone will explain

I placed two orders for the same day the way around it i found was to place both orders for seperate days, then go back into the orders page via your account and change them both to the day and time you want
