Do they give you an annoying paper voucher like Sainsbury's do? Would be so much better if they could put the money on your Nectar card / Clubcard.
Or just reduce the balance of your shopping!

This way it means you have to carry around this slip of paper to save 32p off your next shop.

That would be a much better idea! I've had them before from Sainsburys, and as they have expiry dates on, more often than not I miss out as we don't get through to Sainsburys that often.

From the many terms and conditions



Abusing the spirit? Could that be us?

Also max £10 refund, max £100 per household per month, min 10 items bought, max 10 items of the same thing......it goes on and on

So ; min 10 items bought means you have to buy at least 10 bags of cat litter to get the Difference ?

10 different items with at least one been comparable. Bags for life do not count as an item but different flavours of same product do count as different. Fruit and veg are comparable as well.

Not sure about newspapers.

I used to do the asda comparison religiously, but over the last year or so I've found that Asda have been cutting product sizes compared to other stores. (ICBINB marg, for instance - 500g everywhere but asda 400g. Pork farms pies in packs of 5, everywhere else in 6s. For the same price.)

This has annoyed me so much that, given the extra hastle of getting there and it always being so much busier, these days I mostly stick to Sainsburys .. the vouchers are printed automatically (and it's seldom I don't get one) and it's always worth keeping your eyes open for discarded vouchers. (Picked up a promo £10 off £40 spend voucher left in a trolly outside, once!)

Obviously I keep my eyes on the offers, buy in bulk when things are cheap, watch the reduced stuff, etc. (And buy Pepsi from Home Bargains instead - 2x2L for £1.80) We've compared shops through mysupermarket from time to time, and for our buying pattern, we don't lose out.

But you can't buy just one been at Tesco's, they only sell them in tins.

Tesco's offer has come too late for me. I now shop at Morrisons where they charge just 11p for a packet of own-brand noodles. Tesco's same cost 15p.

I know you'll say I'll get the difference back on this new voucher whizz, but I'm tired of dancing round Tesco's efforts to jack the prices of basic foods.

I like Lidl targetted approach. Half price weekends of mostly useful half a dozen items, can then stock up and wait for next week.
But to get anything from Sains or Tesco for single person just hopeless.

As Bushmills 70cl is reduced for a few more days till 17th ;Will just the difference work or is there to many restrictions ?
