    Good lord that is high. £56 for me to get 540 points. 15 meal deals. But.....the Ginsters deal also counts towards it. As do some fruit bowls. I don't buy one every day but I'll just about do it.

    I still think I'll end up with just over 2000 points for buying my usual stuff, albeit with a few substitutes.

    Added to my weekly shop and the points I already have I reckon on about 3000 points by the end of the challenge. Another £60 in partner vouchers.

    But I think the bar is getting ever higher.

    Crikey I don't know how you get that many. Four of my offers are on eggs, three on yogurt brands none of which I buy. There's things like cooked meats, but I only buy them in the summer to go with salads so no use now. I'm struggling to get anything meaningful.

    In my list are Napolina, pasta, finest cheese, Pepsi, Tropicana and food to go

    Napolina are current on offer so I stock up on them. Tropicana is on offer too. As is finest cheese eg large block of mature cheddar for £3.

    The targets for each are just about ok for me too.

    Well two shops to go and currently on 1420 points. Will likely end up around 2600 which is more than I expected.

    Current clubcard balance is 849 so looking at a grand total of around 3600 by the end of the challenge and another £72 off our holiday.

    Have already paid £179 via clubcard, so this will make over £250 paid. I'm hoping by the end of the year that it will be closer to £400.

    Fingers crossed.

    780 point this time. 3 completed but the rest not touched. Maybe could get another 270 for a £12 spend but don't really need the products

    Never associate with idiots on their own level, because, being an intelligent man, you'll try to deal with them on their level - and on their level they'll beat you every time.

    Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.

    Well one day left. Will end up with 2780 which was a bit of a surprise to be honest.

    I've got £6.50 in vouchers and 420 points so enough for £77 in holiday vouchers bringing the total so far to £266 off our booking.

    Hoping to add to this in the next challenges but it's getting more difficult.

    90 points for me. This one was absolutely hopeless. Loads of targets for eggs and brands of yogurt and butter I don't buy, and wasn't going to swap to as they are way more expensive than the Tesco own brand. We were away for a couple of weeks also, so I wasn't going to get close to £12 spent on own brand eggs. I don't buy a lot of branded items, and there's only 2 of us, so these challenges are becoming less and less relevant.

    There are some pretty high starting points on a few of them, £18 - £19. One that I had last time and didn't use has a £12 opener where last time it was £6. Will be another lean one but something is better than nothing. A bit of a road trip coming up soon so the food to go one will come in handy, 470 points for £21.
