  • This offer was on the national news earlier. They were saying that the voucher had been downloaded millions of times.
    I really hope people check the prices elsewhere before they try to use this voucher.

    I dont think much of any company who lure people with what looks like an amazing discount, when they get to the tills they find the price has come down to the same as everywhere else. It's somewhat dishonest :doh:

    Voucher excludes buy 2 and get 3rd free and Threshers website says that applies to all wines and champagnes. So how can there be a discount?


    I work for Threshers and I can inform you all:

    YES - You can print as many vounchers as you wish
    YES - There is a discount! Buy2Get3rdFree is equivalent to 33% discount and the voucher entitles the holder to 40%!!
    NO - This is not a gimic!
    NO - You can't buy Spirits, Fortified Wines, Minerals, Beers, Lagers etc - Just Wine, Sparkling Wine and Champagne.

    I think its a fab deal - its one of the best for a while (and I'm not just saying that coz I work there!) - just a shame its only on til the 10th! Shame I can't use it! LOL

    Cheers guys!
    Drink Responsibly!!

  • Ok ive had a quick look on google for the top wines listed on superplonk.co.uk

    if you search by retailer (threshers) it gives you the top wines. Ive listed the first couple a pages for booze between £4 and £9 for reds and whites. I think the prices are quite competitive. Other posters have said that the discount isnt really 40% as the wines are genreally more expensive than tesco's, which is true to a point but tesco's dont stock alot of the ones listed in threshers so it isnt a like for like comparrison.

    the list below shows an online price comparrison which stacks up as thresher being good for most of those listed.

    ITS EVEN BETTER IF YOU ADD THE 40% DISCOUNT.

    remember kids, keep moneysaving

    here is the deal AS I SEE IT.....this is sort of logical for me.

    Years ago i could get 3 bottles of californian/new world wines for £10....you know the ones, jacobs landing or whatever...

    NOW i have this 40% voucher that means that i can get (surprise) 3 bottles for £5.33 x 3 = £15.99 x 40% = £9.60....

    This isn't the 'fab and great' 40% offer it is made out to be, these sort of discounts are available across the channel every day, so real moneysavers should go.....

    j p chenet, nice red cheapie is two euros over the water last time i looked. it is five quid in the local!

    THIS IS REALLY NOT A DEAL WHATSOEVER!

    A work colleague handed me a voucher tonight for a whopping 40% off "All wine and champagne".

    Voucher is valid up till 10th December and applies to up to £500 in one transaction.

    As I'm typing this, it's just popped up on the ITN News!!

    ho ho ho!



    this also works at any of the Thresher group stores - eg Threshers, Wine Rack, Bottoms up, haddows, the local etc

    And remember, this has just replaced the usual 3for2 offers they have on. So you're not any better off.

    I prefer to buy from Tesco online, and use extra points codes every time. £40-60 worth of deals on a £50 spend is more of a temptation.

    Oh well, I'll go back to lurking then... did a search on Grabbit and couldn't find any reference...
