    Once you receive the holiday tokens, you must book within six months, irrespective of when you take your holiday.

    We use our vouchers for restaurants, convert £7.50 worth of vouchers and it pays for a starter/main for 2 so we only have to buy the drinks. We live next door to a cafe rogue, so they are very handy at times.

    holidays are a bit of a rip off as are the hotels,

    I use mine for;
    Attractions entry, A day out at our local place costs over £18 for our family, but less than £5 in deals
    OU courses, I've just registered for a course that would have been £300 and paid entirely on Clubcard vouchers
    Avis car hire, probably could have got slightly cheaper elsewhere but still worthwhile using vouchers
    Magazine subsrciptions both for myself and as presents
    DEBT: £500 credit card £800 Bank overdraft
    £14 Weekly food budget

    :confused: Thinking about cashing in clubcard points for Virgin holiday vouchers. Anybody got any idea how long they are valid for once you receive them...or is the expirey date same as the original clubcard voucher?:confused:

    I built up roughly £600 worth in clubcard deals. I wanted to use them for a Cosmos holiday to Cyprus. The price online was £500pp but when I phoned them and said I was using the Tesco points, this turned into £700 per person!!!
    So I ditched Cosmos and tried Virgin. I called about a Caribbean holiday (I had already got the online price). The price the lady quoted me was the same as the online price and she set it all up on the system as a saved quote using Tesco clubcard so it'll be ready on the system for when my vouchers arrive (should be Monday).
    I would recommend trying Virgin because they don't seem to be adding on extra chunks just when you say you are using the Tesco vouchers.

    Except currently Virgin are doing a 50% off deal (see today's Mail on Sunday). Bet you can't get those prices with Clubcard!!

    Lost last posting? Test went through ok. Will now try shortened version!

    Tesco Deals: "Cosmos" now "Moarch Holidays"

    Monarch added £219 including £60 on the basic price because I was a Deals customer and £160 Fuel Surcharge to the invoice which was not mentioned at booking.

    Fuel Supplements are "Included in your holiday price" as it states in their brochure "- subject to change".

    Manager said it is in your holiday price, when we add it on at the end.

    I am a long standing and very satisfied Deals user and Cosmos customer, but beware now Cosmos has changed.

    Getting full refund.

    Willl not be using Monarch / Cosmos again.

    This is the shortened version, if it goes though and anybody is interested I will attempt the full version again.

    Hi all, we've just booked Haven Devon Cliffs for 3 nights starting 5th September and they accepted the Clubcard Deal Vouchers. Devon Cliffs isn't excluded maybe they've changed the list since March?
