I just tried two different emails, and both coupons I received had the same number barcode, so I guess photocopies of these would be allowed? If so, I am going loco, and buying two full soups!

+1 on it being yucky IMO

We tried it a while back and the kids hated it and it tastes like wall paper paste when made.

Think im going to skip this one!

Got a tomato one for free with Dunnes clubcard vouchers and ended up pouring it down the sink. Tasted terrible.

They were giving them out free in Dun Laoghaire a week or two ago.

I tried it, wouldn't buy it again. My OH poured his down the sink as he couldn't stand the taste. It was drinkable (edible?) for me but not nice as such. Tasted kind of...acid or something. Having said that, free stuff is free stuff, so maybe I will get this!

Is this really free.

The coupon says (max value €0.80).

If I remember correctly the last time they had this offer - the sachet cost a little over 90 cent.

Got the Tomato and basil with the coupons.

Tastes the same as the soup in a can.

The problem is that by the time you get the paste to liquify, it's gone cold.

30 secs in the microwave fixes it.

Very poor value for money.

I just got a Minestrone free a few minutes ago - so it is a fully free product with the coupon - but I don't really want it now with this thread's opinions. What is inside the tube feels like toothpaste, which does not help.

Oh dear, poor value for money when a product is free!!! Heinz really should know better.

Amazing Update:

This soup is not all that bad. Not as nice as some of the Knorr stuff I like, but not terrible. Would happily grab a few more packs for free - if I can
