Clubcard points

lollyfin

I got my clubcard points in today and am wondering what the best way is to use them.
I was thinking of doubling some to get dog food then using the rest to stock up on tins and value cleaning stuff but then I saw they are doing double vouchers on finest foods. I dont usually buy finest foods, value all the way, but was wondering if it was worth it on somethings to buy finest or just stick to stocking up on value tins.
Thanks in advance for any advice

Hi Lollyfin

First of all they are your vouchers so spend them as you wish

However .......

You have got the vouchers because T have made a profit out of your previous spending and want to encourage you to continue spending with them and make them more profit. Although it feels like you have got them for free you have already paid for them. So, if I were you I'd treat them the same way I'd treat cash and try to get the best value I could for them. For me that would probably be petfood or perfume to put aside for Xmas gifts.

If you use your doubled vouchers on petfood is the price of the petfood more/less/the same as you would pay elsewhere? Do you usually buy petfood at T? Have you room to bulk store? Same re perfume or whatever else.

Sorry if I sound like a wet blanket - it's always good to get vouchers - but it's even better if you can squeeze every last drop of value out of them

Thanks lizzyb I am definately trying to squeeze as much out of them as i can, Mr T has already made, I think, enough money out of me.

I bought LOADS of cat food with mine ... I am lucky enough to have plenty of storage space, and it somehow makes me feel a bit more secure about the coming winter with a cat-food-tin mountain. Should make the cats feel more secure too! And I remembered that Mr T accepts till spits from Sainsbobs too, so managed to get another £2 off. Rather chuffed with myself!!

I know I'd be better off using mine with thte double up thing they have going on but I'm saving mine till Christmas. I have £49 worth of stamps saved up & £15 of vouchers which came last week so they can buy my turkey & nice things to eat.

There is an offer on the Grabbit board for pet food at Tesco which makes it worthwhile if doubling up so I'll do that with some and will get some Finest wine (for gifts) while most of the others I use to get magazine subscriptions as gifts at Christmas. The restaurant deals can be pretty good but we have few of the participants near us and often the holiday and hotel deals can be better found elsewhere.

So if you get one of those money off coupons from the Sainburys till for money off a spend or money off an item you can use it in Tesco?

Yes, my nearest T has big posters near the carpark to this effect.

I only discovered this a couple of months ago but it works..:T

Yes, Mr T accepts "conditional spend coupons" (eg £2 off a £20 spend) from A*da, Sainsbobs & Morri$ons. Not sure about other sorts of store specific coupons, but deffo works for this type, and is very useful! Good wishes, the cake
