    It comes up labelled as 5% on the receipt but it actually takes the full 25% off - my original receipt said "sub total £38.94", "5% off £9.74".

    Sorry, not being lazy but very behind on these threads due to my son being ill the last few days. Would some kind person please tell me which mini bottles are working out cheap? Specifically are there any Gallo or Blossom Hill roses like the last dinky bottle glitch?

    TIA (you know I don't normally ask for help like this)

    Edit: forgot to ask, for the dinky bottles, should I expect to see something on the receipt to show the glitch is working or it it just the way the discount is calculated?

    The small bottles of Blossom Hill Chardonnay gave me two discounts this evening.

    Is one the 25% and one the 2 for £3? I'm losing track with all the threads but I think what's happening is the 25% comes off the total before the multisave - is that right?
  • Best deal imho is the 'Finest Meal for Two for £10'

    This gives you a side, a main, a dessert or starter AND a bottle of wine.

    I got a £9.99 bottle of wine in each of six meal for two deals which gives a £15 discount so for £44.94 I got decent meals with wine for £3.75 per head. Mostly stuff that I can freeze for those days when you just don't want to cook or haven't time and I do think the Finest range are pretty good quality.
    If you feel my comments are helpful then I'd love it if you 'Thanked' me! :)

    I bought 6 bottles of 75cl £2.99 wine (big bottles - cheap skate I know!!) and 6 bottles of 187 ml of wine (Little bottles). My receipt shows - WINES 2 FOR £3 minus £1.58 plus 25% off 6 bottles minus £10.42.
