Not sure if posted but in W H Smiths you get a voucher with your receipt £5 off a £15 shop. I spent 49p and got a voucher valid from next Monday. I checked to see if it worked for the man behind too as he was only buying a newspaper. He got the voucher too and then gave it to me

so I should get one when I get my o2 free valentine card

OMG, Adam Ant is on This MOrning, used to love him, why I dont know

think I may be jumping in on this without reading back on the thread...


but those asking about the use of orchard cheese vouchers and CC vouchers on the meal deals in T watch out that you dont confuse the 2 deals.


I used on monday...£3 orchard cheese ...£1 tesco finest main meal and 110 pints for finest wine and a PP I also had....it all worked well on the £10 deal


howeve I had a look at the £20 valentines and was unconvinced that it would work the same because the cheese for the valentines is priced at £2.50 per portion as opposed to £3 in the normal deal which would mean that you would only be able to take advantage of the £2 spend if you bought 2...so both desserts were cheese...however its possible that you could get away with a second cheese voucher as you were buying 2 but that might be more up to the individual assistant to put that through rather than it clicking through automatically...
Again with the wine...im not sure that the sparkle would be included...


I therefore thought that using the vouchers on the standard £10 meal deal was a better option than trying them on the valentines deal...


Appologies if ive just requoted what anyone else has already said!

Just incase its also not been mentioned...
Waittrose have bought out their valentine offering and its IMO slightly better than the T one as its wine and chocs ...for £20

But TBH..I'm opting for the morrisins....£9 without fizz...or possibly just the reduced steaks!

I am wondering if the multibuys would kick in if you bought 2 mains, one bubbly, 2 cheese and 2 puds ie no starters.
Might be worth playing about on the SS machines maybe
It works on the normal finest deal - just buying puds and no starters.

Thanks for this, I am wavering as well now. I think its the promise of a TPPP that will be the clincher.

As always I am not getting far with my lists - at least its only Thursday morning and not 7 on a Saturday morning trying to make sense of them.

I have 3 lists each with one item on them but the tosco v Sada one needs the most work as I've got several conditional spends to use up and hopefully hide amongst other mocs.

I printed off the shreddies mocs and checked mys - someone said that they were 2 for £3 but I can't see this. All the supermarkets seem to have different offers for each flavour :mad:

and vaguely in the back of my head I seem to remember some offer from Sainsburys that said buy 2 Nestl! cereals and be entere do to a draw - have to go and have a trawl through some old emails.

It is the frosted shreddies that are 2 for £3 HTH

Thank you so much for this. Came on here to ask why this is so much better than the normal Finest Meal deal for £10 which would give you the same number of meals etc but two bottles of wine?

Mind you, I love Prosecco and am very tempted by that PP! I also have two 110 extra points wyb finest wine (different bar codes, both in date) and a 50p off Finest chilled ready meal which I presume will work with the meal deal.

I've not done Orchard. Does it take up a lot of time please? Must have missed a day or so when presumably people discussed it.

Thanks in advance.
