Some beer slabs €20 at Tesco from tomorrow.

jarvis

Budweiser. Carlsberg. Bavaria. Miller.
All 24x500ml cans. €20 each. Customer quota of 3 slabs.
I know there's lots of these threads so sorry for starting another but thought this was really worth posting.

Fewer quantities of miller and Bavaria so a bigger shop is more likely to have these.

All Tesco stores. Stock will be limited I reckon. Bigger stores getting more than little store but they'll have more customers so should even out.

Where'd you hear this?

I do some work within the drinks industry - so you know, the Miller is BB dated Jan 5th 2012.

tronman

It's being offered by the distributor to pretty much the entire off-trade channel at a very keen price to ensure they don't have to destroy the stock in Jan. The retailer will be making a very healthy margin on Miller even at the €20 mark. I have seen the pricing and the spec sheet but for reasons of confidentiality I'm not going to share here. Whilst there MAY be some stock included that's not Jan 5th marked, the vast majority of that stock is.

Is that a satisfactory explanation for you?

It won't last a week in this house anyway over christmas

In this case, 3 slabs should be enough for me.

These slabs were flying out the door in my local Tesco this morning!

cojomo2

theavenger

In tesco rathmines the miller is dated 5th June 2012.

Loads of stock

run_Forrest_run

I've still to find anyone lower than Eurospar selling slabs of Guinness draught for €24.

Zonda999

Got a slab of Bud in Tesco Wilton in Cork there this morning, only about 10 or so on display, and about 10 or so of Carlsberg as well, didn't have much of a luck around for anything else though..

None of the beers are dated January. They all have normal life you expect. The earlier post about the miller being dated January is incorrect.

2nd that. Picked up a slab of Miller this evening. Best Before June 2012

Posher

Hubbie was in Balbriggan at lunchtime and not one beer slab on offer to be seen.:(

UDAWINNER

No cheap slabs in carlow.

nudger

No €20 slabs in Cabra today, plenty of the 2x20 330cl for €30, Guinness slab €25, Hino slab €30.

Darwin

Plenty of Miller slabs on offer in Tesco Portlaoise at 3pm today.

coldfire1x

Loads available in Tallaght....

January

Guinness was €20 for 24 cans in Tesco Clearwater today, had 25 euro on the sign, but scanned at €20!

davehey79

Same in Clearwater, but the Guinness scanned at €20

saa

Any Coors light?

I remember when its was 24 for 24 euros, 20 is grand,
Fella got me strawberry cider last time bleugh.

It's strange how many offers and sales are on before Christmas this year,
last year the tins of roses and such were half price well before xmas for a short period it seems like theyve been on offer for weeks and every where I go for clothes there seems to be a sale on.

I know half price deals or whatever are different to sales but it really feels like a sign of the times for me.

sweet jesus, with all this home drinking I suspect the Gardai will be busy on Christmas night with traditional petty family arguments exploding into booze fueled brawls :eek:
