    This offer comes up every few weeks/months so no need to break the bank (unless of course you need that much :beer:).

    Now you've confused me! i had it as £48 for the 12 bottles -25%= £36?

    yes that is what I thought would be the case, but I remembered that Sainsburys had a similar glitch a year or two ago (but even better I think as it was on 3-for-£10 wines) and they gave the two discounts together.

    Every little helps hey?! ;)

    OK So Many Many Thanks for the GREAT find, managed to get Ahemm!!! 100+ bottles of wine in the last two days - christmas - Partys - and some if not all of next year sorted!!!!! honestly couldn't get it cheaper on a booze cruize to france!! and it is actually not bad wine, i have had a few heart palpatations though got to the 4th case of wine at the till total - £150 + and still another 5 cases to go!! i thought shirley the check out op would realize when the total came to £330+ Trolley filled to the brim!! went down to around £130.00+ they would question but no!! i have done this twice now Thur & fri in small mr t's!!

    £2 + bottle? & a very very happy christmas to you all! Ends Sunday! If it dosn't come ontop sooner!! probally not! :rotfl:

    Yup, totally agree with you, Calais/ better than Calais prices and no need to travel. A couple of hundred bottles are now residing in the lutzi cellar. Last time I got wine I really like at these prices was Morrisons in November 2007.
    Hope is not a strategy.

    Why is the 25% not working for you?

    Yep & I no they do the 25% offer every couple of months & in the past have benefitted from the small bottles ect, but the other offers eg 3 4 £12.00 dissapeared at the time!? soo i cannot remember getting 6 x bottles 75cl for just over £2.00 & nice wine ?? Anyone?
    & Yes i go to France most years for hol's ( Thanks to Mr T!) & they do have Large boxes of wine that are cheap but are not good, I do feel this is a GReat Glitch At this moment!!!

    I have just come back with six bottles of the Lindermans Sydney Cove. £6.79 a bottle.

    Sub total on receipt = £40.74

    multibuy savings:
    Wines 3 for £12 - £16.74
    Wine discount - £10.19

    Total Savings - £26.93

    Total to Pay - £13.81 HTH

    Who knows - tills just don't take it off and when I queried they agreed to take 25% off the £12 - when I said all other stores the 25% comes off the full price they said theres no way that is happening and I should be thankful for getting wine as cheap as £12 for 3 bottles anyway. Fuming as I went late last night, then rang this morning to check 25% off was working - was told it was and then it wasn't after I'd dragged two unhappy kids there :eek:. Seems pointless going again tomorrow as they clearly aren't gonna get this sorted :(

    I hope my calculations are correct, this is how I work it out:

    You should technically pay £40.74 + £41.94 = £82.68
    You should get £20.67 discount as 25% off that price so bringing it down to £62.01
    BUT
    The till will also deduct £34.68 comprising £16.74 from the White (£40.74 down to £24 for six) and £17.94 from the Red (£41.94 down to £24 for six)
    So you will end up paying £62.01 - £34.68 = grand total of £27.33 for 12 bottles of wine!! :beer:

    If this is correct and I increase the 6 red to 12 red, then I work it out as costing me £40.84 for 18 bottles?
    £40.74+£83.88 =£124.62, minus 25% discount £31.16 so brings it down to £93.46

    then take off £16.74 for the white & £35.88 off for the red to get them to 3 for £12
    £93.46-£52.62= £40.84 for 18 bottles
