Isle of Wight Ferries - save with clubcard

Anyone travelling to/from the Isle of Wight will know the ferries can be rather pricey. I rarely travel on a non-special offer ticket, and always book online (as it saves money over offline bookings) but occasional must travel full price :-(

Tesco include Wightlink ferries on their special offers, so you get four times the value for your vouchers (£10 off the ferry for a £2.50 voucher). Not sure if you can use it off special offer fares or not.

If you have a Tesco credit card the points back start to look attractive at those rates too (2% cashback effectively if my maths is right)

Always check all the ferry operators for special offers first though, as prices can vary enourmously.

Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

  • Just found out not available on special offers, so one to use only if you can't get an offer (or use two day return trips, another way of reducing costs on trips over 5 days)

    we have just used our clubcard vouchers to pay for a ferry crossing this Easter-we go over a few times a year and this is the first time we have used the vouchers-the £80 crossing has cost us £20 in clubcard vouchers which I think is excellent!! will use them this summer..........
