Welcome to MSE

Haven't seen any offer recently, I'm sure someone else will post if they know of any.

If we go to France for the day we use this website

https://www.driveline.co.uk/postcard

It costs £19 for trips Mon-Thurs. I don't know how much it costs for a campervan though.

The password changes from time to time but at the moment it's 'postcard'.

Hope that this is useful.

You can use your Tesco clubcard vouchers with Eurotunnel. I don't know the price for a campervan, but they do a day trip for £39 (for car plus 5 passengers)which only costs you £9.75 of Tesco vouchers as they are worth 4 times their face value. They also offer a 5 day price.

This is the cheapest way I have found to get a day trip to France. You just need to apply a couple of weeks in advance - you send off the vouchers to Tesco who will return a 'deals' voucher for Eurotunnel. When you make the booking you send in the deals voucher in payment. If you don't have enough points you can pay the difference in cash.

I think this may have been mentioned before, but what the heck.
We are travelling through France in June and will be using the tunnel, but not returning.
Enquiries show that a single ticket is approx £129 whereas a day return is only £39. Obvious choice is to book day return but only go one way. However I seem to remember some previous messages that said that Eurotunnel, being wise to this line of action, keep a record of registration numbers of vehicles that don't use the return part of a day return! Has anyone any experience or knowledge of what action Eurotunnel may take?
