    I managed to get £20 off from the coupons, pretty good considering we're veggie (couldn't use the meat one), don't have kids (or the baby one) and the 'grab 2 go' isn't available from our Tesco. I signed up for a new account in my name, as we usually get deliveries in my husband's, so I'm technically a new customer. I thought I'd pop my list on here in case it may be useful to anyone. I bought my usual weekly shop (usually £20-£25 plus delivery/busfare if only buying for that week's meal plan), plus some dried items to stock up and my husband's lunches for work (he usually goes to ASDA in his lunch hour and gets some noodles and fruit, but homemade healthy sandwiches will be better for him!). Some stuff will also last more than a week such as the ice cream & cakes (should last ages!), the pastry (will freeze) and the berries (will probably freeze these too as it's a lot of fruit for us to get through). I don't always buy this much organic food, but we're doing ok on the money front atm and I've just finished college so something of a celebration!

    I hope you haven't forgotten the ice cream and lollies coupon, could save you an extra £2. You can amend your order to add it in :)

    I had that with the vegetables one, if you have the right items then email or ring them and they should refund you the voucher.

    I have found they get back to you very quickly. I have emailed them about problems with orders that have been delivered twice recently. On both occasions I have had a phone call within less than 2 hours.

    They've said they will refund the card once I get the shopping. Shouldn't they just add a coupon to my order?

    That's what they said and they prob will but I stated that I would rather the e coupon sent to my email so that I could process the order that was on the screen that was in front of me and they did.

    I asked whether it was possible for me to add the coupon somehow so will see what they say. I know it's only a couple of quid but I begrudge having to be out of pocket for a few days waiting for a refund. :/
