The Orchard by Tesco Product Testing

fallon8

I have just received my healthy eating coupons and was pleasantly surprised.
When orchard first sent me the invite I thought it would be a bunch of vouchers for Tesco's version of bland weight watchers products. But the coupons are for as follows;

3 25 p off for friends and £2 off for me vouchers against any Tesco branded tinned and instant soup (includes everyday value and finest range, excludes chilled soup).
3 30 p off for friends and £1.45 off for me vouchers against Tesco easy oats golden syrup flavour, Tesco frosted flakes cereal and choco snaps cereal.
And..... 3 25 p off for friends and £2.00 off for me vouchers against healthy living yogurts and fromage frais.

Definitely looking forward to using them against the soups as I buy them all the time anyway (my favourite is broccoli and Stilton since ainsley harriot ones have been hit and miss lately) not too sure about the cereals but I buy Kelloggs frosties so it will be interesting to see how Tesco's version compares. Yogurts ? ??? I will probably use in a sauce or curry.

Still would of preferred the meat campaign though😒

think i'll probably only use the soup ones as we don't eat cereal or yogurts - for me Healthy Eating would be fresh fruit/salad/veg/ and T's own brand lower fat/salt/sugar items

I will use the soup and yoghurt but not sure about the cereal choice they stipulate, only the oats look healthy.

As the oats are the same price as the voucher (ie free) will probably get and donate to the local foodbank.

I got mine too, and I will probably use all of them, my DS loves yogurt and cereals and I am eating a lot of soup particularly on my fast days of the 5:2 diet.

Just had a look more closely at these vouchers. Soups and yogurts seem fine, lot of choice on soups which is good, yogurts ok probably more for me than my so. Cereals ?????
Why are tesco own brand frosties or cocoa pops considered healthy, and only the golden syrup version of the porridge is allowed, surely blueberry might have been a healthier option. This is a strange choice.

I agree about the cereal voucher being a bit contradictory as meant to be healthy living and the 3 options are not that healthy. I used the coupon today for the porridge and put it straight in the food bank box our store have on the way out.

The yoghurt one can be used for flavoured HL yoghurts, they do 4 packs in 3 different varieties for £1 each, so you'd get 8 yoghurts. I've bought these before and they taste ok but I find them quite runny, not a patch on muller light or Weightwatchers IMO.

Did my Tesco shop today with my healthy living vouchers - for free I got:-
4 tins of soup
2 packs of yoghurt (8 yoghurts)
1 box instant oat cereal
Pretty good really!!

My score had gone down considerably as there were lots of short surveys to do.

When completed the score rose again.
