Cosmos & tesco rewards

firstly apologies if this question has been asked before.
I had a load of tesco points vouchers which at some stage will trade in for rewards and was thinking about putting them towards booking a family holiday in October with Cosmos. I read on the small print that you have to ring a certain number and do the booking etc through them. Now normally i do most of our holiday booking online as it tends to be a bit cheaper so I wondered how much do the prices vary from their website to when you actually book through them using tesco rewards? Is it more expensive?
In the last couple of years we have had Hilton hotel breaks and it tends to be the higher rate thats shown on the internet not the lower pre purchase one and can be about 15 - 20% more expensive. For that its not a problem, but i would be loathe to spend that percentage more on a holiday and actually find that by using my rewards i am worse off.
I hope I make sense!

We were in the same situation but with Cresta and their Bridges city breaks - I was pleasently suprised though when I phoned the lady came up with the same price as their internet site and when I said that their other brochure company called Paris Travel offered the same holiday but slightly cheaper although isn't listed as accepting tesco clubcard tokens, she booked it at that price for me and we sent off the tokens and everything was fine.0
