    Seems it would depend on how much more you spent. After all 3 meal deals and 3 for £12 on wine only comes to £42 anyway !

    No I think that the meal deal disc figure is what is taken off to get them to the £10.

    Unless the Meal Deal wine was also a multibuy (eg. 3 for £12) wine,

    and looking at the figures you've provided this isn't the case (just 3 x £5.99 bottles in the 3 for £12 deal giving the £5.97 discount)

    then the easiest way to work out the final cost of a meal deal is to subtract 25% of the cost of the wine that formed part of the meal deal from £10

    eg. Wine is £5 so 25% is £1.25 so Meal Deal cost is £10 - £1.25 = £8.75

    IF wine was £10 the 25% is £2.50 so MD cost is £7.50
    At £12 MD cost would be £7

    Edit Update - looked more closely at the wine available in the Meal Deals and it's £6.99 a bottle

    This makes the final cost of each MD just £8.25

    Nearly.

    The cost of 3 Meals Deals is £30 plus 3 bottles at £12 making £42

    The 25% wine discount is £9.74 so final amount paid is £32.26
