    Hello,

    Not sure if it's just me or in the South East, but I received my change4life packet and the free Cravendale milk is no longer being offered. For me, it's changed to 50p off 4 litres.

    All other coupons mentioned are there though.

    Just thought I'd pass that on ...

    U sure u mean 50p off 4 litres? As a 4 litre bottle of milk would be quite big, even bigger than a 6 pint bottle!

    I got the free 2 litre bottle coupon the other week. Used it in Tesco where it was 2 for £3 at the time (or £1.98 each). Got £1.98 off making it £1.02 for 2 bottles! Its on 2 for £3 in ASDA at the moment.

    Can confirm that the voucher sent to me was only for 50p off a 2 litre bottle of Cravendale, so looks like the free one has finished.

    It still equals a 20 pack to the supermarket. They don't get charged for the 50% free and they don't charge the customer for it. So as far as they, their tills and accounting system are concerned it's just a 20 pack. If they took account of the 50% free it would be a 30 pack and you would get charged for a 30 pack, then the extra 50% would not be free.

    The coupon says money off a 20 pack so it works, no matter what you get free with the pack.

    Quoia was obviously questioning the maths here rather than a comment on the coupon.

    20 + 50% = 30
    20 + 100% = 40
