    What are T&Cs for this voucher? Does it exclude phone credit?
    Used one of the Lidl ones yesterday for €20 groceries, €10 Tesco gift card and €20 phone credit. Did similar last week. So using Aldi one for phone credit at Tesco should not be a problem. You can buy phone credit at self checkout (SCO) but for giftcards you need to go to a manned register.

    No, Lidl will not accept Aldi vouchers, and Aldi will not accept Lidl vouchers. Tesco will accept both Aldi and Lidl vouchers (also Dunnes, Supervalue and now even M&S).

    There was a Lidl voucher in Sunday Independent and Sunday World last Sunday.

    Hopefully, I'm finding it hard to keep a straight face at the checkouts in Tesco such is the discount on already discounted items :D

    Tesco no longer take them for gift cards. Groceries only, for those planning on using them in Tesco.

    They were never supposed to be in the first place, but in saying that, I think it depends on the store and the assistant.
    No particular logic in not allowing them for Tesco Gift card, if they've the correct profit margins on all their goods, it shouldn't affect them?

    It makes absolute sense (from Tesco's perspective) not to allow them to be used when buying Tesco gift cards as they obviously accept them when you're buying goods and paying the balance with a gift card.

    If you were to use a voucher to buy a €50 Tesco gift card and then use €40 from this gift card with another voucher to buy fifty quid's worth of groceries, you're basically getting the groceries for €32 which is a discount of 36%.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,737 ✭✭✭Hococop


    Haven't been in aldi in awhile, I know aldi stock a dolce gusto compatible pod, just wondering if anyone knows if the have tassimo pods, of not I'll probably use the voucher in tesco,

    Sorry mods if it's a little off topic

    I was more of spend 20 and buy 30 gift card type of guy, never wanted to appear too blatant!
    I hear you, but it might make more sense to simply disallow the discount when gift cards are used in payment. They make the rules of how to accept competitors vouchers, so that wouldn't present any issues.
    Anyway, I suppose we should just be thankful that the Germans have stepped up their attacks on Tesco margins once again!!

    If I was to use this for Tesco. Is it just spend over €50 in Tesco and use it or can you spend less than €50?!

    Have to spend 50 or over


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,404 ✭✭✭✭vicwatson


    The voucher is 10€ off 50€ spend.

    yes and if you have 2 vouchers and split your shop you can get 20 euro off 100:)

    I use my phone calculator to tot up my stuff as I would not usually spend over €50 and do not want to overspend. One smart poster was buying his paper in tesco as part of his €50 spend, put it through first and cut it out at the checkout and hand it over.

    I don't think my tesco sells papers though.

    I have been checking tesco online for bargains, esp. more expensive compact stuff as I am usually walking home with the shopping. So washing powders, cleaning stuff, toiletries, spirits are all good to get and not perishable.

    So are Tesco definitely taking the Aldi vouchers?

    I'm loaded up with vouchers now, I'm hoping for some Tesco deals next week, has dried up at the minute.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,382 ✭✭✭✭rubadub


    Lots of sun cream is BOGOF in tesco, if looking for something expensive and compact.


  • Registered Users Posts: 649 ✭✭✭DuffleBag


    Been waiting for Aldi to do this for a long time! Cheers OP.

    On the subject of Tesco. I seem to be missing out. Are Aldi and Lidl not on par with the likes of Tesco these days, save for a few name brand items that you go out of your way there to get?

    That's true but the only issue is the limited range they stock. Using vouchers in Tesco makes particular sense when buying stuff like phone credit or from their extensive hardware and electrical departments.

    And their own-brand range too is much more extensive than the other supermarkets.

    It's doubling up on offers that can help. e.g. heineken & coors were €26 for 24 cans in tesco a week or so ago and lidl vouchers were about. So 2 trays at €21 each (€52-€10)

    If lidl/aldi were selling heineken that cheap there is no way in hell they would have been also releasing vouchers that week.

    tesco online is great as you can search just current offers by department, it also says when offers start and end.

    Can you split up your shopping if it's €100?!
    If you have two vouchers?

    We generally just ask the till operator nicely and they put through the whole shop in one go and take our two vouchers off the €100+ total.

    If they are being sticky about it there's nothing to stop you splitting your shop in two.

    Aldi stock Nespresso compatible pods (as do others), they don't stock any to suit either Dolce Gusto or Tassimo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,337 ✭✭✭lazeedaisy


    I personally find I can never find the online bargains in store. Numerous occasions I buy stuff only to show staff it's cheaper online.

    I was also one of those taking advantage of the tesco gift card!
