    Prob not a great wine but for girls nite out

    silver bay point rose, red or white 2 for £5 (£3.49 eac)

    6x £3.49 = £20.94
    minus 25% -£5.24
    minus 2for5 -£5.94
    Total £9.76 for 6 bottles = £1.62 each

    ok let me get this stright, does the 25% come off the original price of the bottle first and then the 2 for 5 discount amount?

    The rose was just about drinkable, not sure about enjoyable. Glad I only got one white though, couldn't have drunk anymore of that!

    yes, easiest way to work it out is to calculate the 25% discount off the original price and then deduct that from the multibuy offer (e.g. if you buy 6 bottles at 2 for £5 then dedict your 25% discount price from £15)

    HTH
  • I've ordered a variety (6 bottles at 2for£10, 1 half price, 4 dinky bottles at 2for£3) for delivery tomorrow - will report back!

    If a wine is on offer at A's, would T's refund the difference, between T's price, and A's offer price, or would they refund the difference between T's price with the 25% off, and A's offer price?

    There is a very nice Gallo wine on offer at T's, 3 bottles for £10, whereas it's currently £6.48 in T's, less 25% off if buying more than 6.

    Just wondering if I might save more by going for 6 in T's, or is it more cost effective to only buy 3 in T's? If it's the later, I don't need to spend more this wek whilst the 25% off promotion is on!
