    I had a free £6 Tesco voucher (after a refit) so it was bearable for a couple of boxes.

    I need to buy 8 more boxes by end of July to get 3 free boxes from Dolce Gusto in an order. (hoping they stay at 170 points for each box)

    Given the recent/current commodity increases on coffee/milk I think you're probably getting off fairly lightly there

    But it is weird cos sometimes they say that AND it will be on offer next month!!

    'Morrisons' were the cheapest for about a month at the start of 2011 before the £3.46 price point @ most places. Then Viking Direct had a good deal but it was hit/miss in getting 100% of your order.

    Amazon - 3 boxes for 10.38, and then a further 10% off for subscription seems to be the best at the moment.

    Well, if we're playing that game, I certainly wouldn't object to anyone handing me their points either.:rotfl:

    Something tells me there'll be no need to stake out my PM box though.;)
