Finest meal deal. 20% off too!!!!!!! plus possible jtd.

All round my store it says 20% off Tesco finest.
It works on meal deal too. I got 2 off them but it took £4.83 off so more than the 20%.
I also got the finest Nero wine so should get some jtd back.
To top it off I got 4 mini tower wines to get the 5% off 6 bottles. There is jtd on the mini black towers.
Meal deal and 4 mini bottles was £44.94
Finest meal £16.98 disc, 20% off finest £4.83, wine disc £1.10.

It left £22.03 to pay but I had a £20.00 jtd voucher to use.
I think I will get a £7ish jtd back.

Might be a good way of using up the £5 off £40 spends if anyone wants to come up with a better combo.
Good luck.

    I think the 20% is coming off the full price of the individual items (wine not included) so best deal would be to buy the dearest items.
    :oI love to help people by sharing my bargains:o

    I placed a family size online order last night for delivery today.

    Quite a few finest items on there - no mention of the 20% off in the guide price.


    Items went through the till today and the 20% came off. Think Tesco must have decided to do this at the last minute as usaully online orders are up to speed on future discounts.

    All food shopping posts get moved to the Food & Grocery Shopping board, which is the right place for them IMO. That's why there is a board dedicated to just that.

    So it's not just your posts, and if you posted them there in the first place then they wouldn't need to be moved :p

    Thanks, Eviesdad. I wouldn't have seen this if it had been tucked away on the Food & Grocery board.

    With so many deals I can't look at every thread, but normally check the main page about 30 times a day.
    Thanks for the feedback though moonshine, I treat it as a gift.
