    Just got some Tesco vouchers in the door recently.

    Ive also got a money off voucher from Dunnes, 5 off for 25 spent
    and I have a few 6 off when you spend 40 for Tesco,
    The dunnes voucher says cannot be used with any other offer and not with phone credit and the tesco voucher doesnt say that.

    Can I go in and spend this in one go in Tesco, spend 40 and hand over the Tesco 6 off for 40 spent and the dunnes 5 off?

    They would have to be separate transactions. One voucher per transaction, but the cashier can easily divide a big shop into the required amounts if you ask beforehand

    Lads sorry if this has been asked before .. Can we use let's say the Supervalu clubcard vouchers in Tesco or does it need to be the money off vouchers ? 12.50 would go further in Tesco than Supervalu !

    Needs to be money off vouchers based on spend so e.g. 50c off milk voucher not accepted

    Must be local to certain stores. My local one is not. Got floor staff to check with a manager. Bought basics there, but went to Tesco for wine etc. With the 25% off, plus voucher for EUR6 for over EUR40 spend, 6 bottles of white worked out at EUR33. Supervalu are going to have to catch up quickly or they'll miss out on the big weekly shops.

    Tesco are haemorraging customers so i think you'll see quite a number of decent offers and promotions from them in the runup to xmas to try and claw them back.

    Sv and dunnes are offering slabs at around the same price, but cant compete with 25% of 6btls plus a coupon

    As a franchise, its very possible that one specific Supervalu are taking them and not others.

    Unlike the other big 4 which are 100% company owned, Supervalu own very few of their stores.

    Well the official policy is one voucher per transaction. You may get lucky with the cashier not following it. :-)

    You can use it on items that you get club card points on. You don't get club card points on petrol, infant formula or medicines

    It should be noted that infant milk is for 0-6 months only. Which is why you never see them on discount ever (eu law) as well as not getting points.

    The growing up ones are fine

    The big issue is a seismic shift in people's shopping patterns.
    People are moving away from doing a big weekly shop- and tending towards smaller more frequent purchases.
    This has driven Tesco (in particular) demented- as they have invested billions in large out-of-town superstores- that are seeing footfall taper and taper- to the extent very few of them are profitable.
    The couponing exercise- is a an attempt to try to encourage more and more customers in- however- it was supposed to be a time delineated exercise- only they've had to extend it, as customers are a lot more fickle than they used be.

    The 25% off 6 bottles of wine offer- is probably one of the majorly good offers they have there at the moment- that you can't get elsewhere- however, it is below-cost-selling of alcohol- and will likely be outlawed sooner rather than later...........

    the big issue here is that there is too much irrelevant chatter - this thread is for bargain alerts, not the finer points of retail business theory and practice.


  • Registered Users Posts: 120 ✭✭rosieirl


    Tesco.com are offering 25% off 4 bottles. I know it's a different company/larger market/blah blah (cheaper booze, lower tax), but it stings to see the same offer, both in Tesco, but with Tesco UK are getting, as usual, a better deal.

    Ballinasloe, they had a label advertsing it so probably in other stores

    I'm sure there is an answer to this somewhere but.....

    If I buy wine totalling €40 before discount, can I then use my €6 of €40 coupon as well as get the 25% off or will the 25% come off first meaning the coupon won't be valid? :confused:

    You can use both. the 25% is automatic, no voucher needed. Need the EUR6 for the rest. Did it last night, no problem.
