    As far as I can see it is - too good to be true that is - see the page I've posted several times on here - I can't find anything to do with TVs at all!

    TVs weren't included last time, probably not this time - but when it becomes 'live' you can check on Tesco Direct and each item will show if it is available via 'Voucher Exchange'.

    According to this page it does include pet food but even this page is quite vague and has taken me an age to find. Couldn't find anything about this scheme on the actual Clubcard site.

    I suppose you just have to click on each hyperlink to find out exactly what you can get - or ask in store.

    Tesco don't seem to make things easy - as far as I'm concerned anyhow, maybe I'm thick!!

    annie ty for this if correct even 24tins of dog food 1/2 price is well worth stocking up on -

    Hi Ann1e

    I think this link relates to the earlier double-up in the summer - the dates are mentioned at the top of the page. Tesco seems to have let very little slip about what actually will or won't be included this time around. As no1catman says, I think we will have to wait till Monday ....

    Good to see this (hopefully a Christmas toy sale coming up ...?), but you can't help but suspect that this is another chance for them to effectively get a lot of their clubcard points back out of circulation. Looking at the changes in T&Cs you will see that as well as the advertised x3 rather than x4, there are a number of other changes in there including, for example, not re-issuing tokens if you mislay them or if they have expired (which they have done up to now).

    Thanks for pointing this out! I often exchange my rewards for tokens, just in case I need them for days out, restaurants etc. where they're not "buy in full" - knowing that Tesco will convert the vouchers back into points if I haven't used them by the end-by date.

    It would help if they give a longer date actually but obviously I'm going to have to watch out for this now. Also, I have some rewards that I haven't been able to use so will have to write to Tesco quickly won't I?

    Thanks again - Karen :)

    I've only ever used them for Goldsmith's vouchers or straightforward reduction off food bill before however am I right in thinking on this particular scheme I could convert £50 of vouchers for £100 token which I could then use in store to buy/put towards a nice 19" LCD TV for my parents? I suspect I'm missing something obvious as it seems to good to be true.

    I've picked up a leaflet this morning, it definitely does include TVs sized 24" and under. :)

    found it, online now in clubcard section
  • Just back from my local Tesco Extra now, and have picked up 2 LEGO City sets for the price of 1 using the Clubcard Exchange :D

    Much better deal than the Sainsbury's 1/2 Price Toysale the other week (Tesco have a load of toys in-stock, so it shouldn't be pot luck/ 7a.m. trolley dashes), and Tesco have included lots of toys in the Exchange:

    Construction Toys
    Games
    Girls' and Boys' Toys
    LEGO
    Outdoor Toys
    Pre-school Toys
    Vehicles
