    all drink seems to be cheaper in sada - I had a drinks/mixers bill the other day £180 cask and tosco were £30 dearer.

    Gone are the days.

    Or buy V3... swop at highstreetvouchers for A*da and use in conjuction with APG... you can part spend on one shop and use the rest on your next shop... simples!

    Yup you could do this after buying the T cards, then use the T cards to buy V cards.

    Lovely!
    :)


    I was just having a ponder about Tescos new fuel save campaign. I was thinking about possibilities to maximise this.
    Would this work?

    1, Buy £50 in GC from T ….
    I don't believe this would gain the extra 150pts as they're T's own cards and I believe they are excluded, but it would help towards the expendature.

    2, Use these GC to make your usual/ unusual shopping trip in Tesco collecting further points towards Fuel expenditure but without incurring anymore cost.

    Ts own giftcards won't count, but other store giftcards or visas bought in T will count
