    ALthough my kids are too old for these nappies, I bought the last three trial packs to bulk up my spend for a skincare voucher today (last day of offer), which means when I exchange the vouchers inside at Tesco or Asda, the spend for a £5 voucher was down to £2. The pull ups will be donated to a friend with a young child so will not be wasted, that would be immoral!
    Well pleased with this tip.

    Hmm, strange - whenever I've bought these trial packs, they didn't count towards the £5 spend for the skincare voucher, as you're paying nothing. How did you get away with it? :confused: Or did you not get them for free? :confused:

    Bagged a few more of these free packs today - hopefully this offer is not going to disappear from the AC machine tomorrow! :eek:

  • Hanging up in front of the shelves.

    I didn't get a voucher in the AC machine though.

    I paid for them: costs 98p, £1 off shopping at Tesco (so free in a way) and counted towards the voucher presumably because I coughed up actual cash.

    They are on hangers on the side of the shelves, but look everywhere in the baby section. I've seen them next to baby food etc, not just next to nappies.
  • no voucher for me, not fair :confused: , would of come in handy. I will try again at weekend.

    i see, so it counted because you paid 98p for them instead of using a £1 off voucher from the machine and getting them for minus 2p. i paid for a pack today, i wanted to make my spend up to £7.50 so i could get 50 extra points (i get that total spend voucher from the machine).

  • Didnt work for me and I'm signed up to parenting club, but then I did get a voucher for a free pack of pantyliners

    How do I get a free pack of those? I'm a bloke but I leave them as tips for the chambermaid in hotels, like in the ad. I always travel with a few of them in my wallet for this reason, and a few US dollars too.
