Tesco £10 meal deal - value?

Options
Usually includes a bottle of wine they price at nearly £10 making the food (starter or dessert, main and side dish, from their "Finest" range) "free". Is it really value or for example is the wine painstripper worth 3 quid for example?

  • The wine price is obviously inflated but as there is 25% off 6 bottles of wine at the moment some people buy 6 meal deals and get 25% back off the high wine price.
  • Does that work? You get the Meal Deal discount AND the 25% discount?

    I did this today. Yes it does work. Had a £4 off 40 as well.
    I bought 4 meal deals, two more bottles of wine at £4 .99 each.
    Cashier totalled it up. Took the 25% off the 6 bottles of wine.
    The whole lot came to £37 something. I then had to rush to get something to buy to make it up to £40 so i could use my £4 off.
    Grabbed a reduced ready meal off the shelf. This took it up to £40.
    She then took the 4 off.
    So for £36, i got four meal deals, six bottles of wine and a chicken tikka masala wit rice::T

    Id say the wine isnt that bad, the glitch if you call it that also works in m&s too.

    Two of the meal deals i bought today were veggie. I got the red pepper and spinach lasagne, and the caramalised onion tarts.
    I do love the m&s meal deal as well though.:)

    Why have Tesco when you can have M&S ?
    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..

    We had a bottle of the white at the weekend as part of the meal deal and was pleasantly surprised.
    I dont normally drink french wine.
