Can you mix and match the cans or does the slab have to be all of the same type of beer ?

I was told by check out staff you can mix them but it must be 24 to get the discount.

The deal is not 1euro a can, the deal is based on 24 cans as the total is discounted on your receipt.

Yeh, I checked the yellow label and it says offer ends 5th June (or while stocks last I imagine), they deffo replenish stocks as it goes on.

As I said, if they wanna sell em get them on the shelves (or in the aisles anyways )

Maybe its per branch then, but she said it's no prob with a mix of the ones that are on special as long as it's 24 cans.

Got a tray of Heineken and a tray of bulmers original this evening in Tescos in the square, tallaght. There was still plenty of both, as well as plenty of bud, coors light and Guinness. Didn't see any bulmers light or any berry/pear bulmers nor did I see any miller but they were all on the in store promotional poster. Cracking deal

Anyone checked the best before dates on them, have to see if they will go in the 2012 vault or 2013?

no didnt see anyone doing that, i doubt very much that ya can. all the the trays were full so no sign of them being split.. id imagine it would cause a mess if people were splitting them, maybe certain tescos do it

May 2013 i think for Bulmers. Mine is anyway.

Maddylicious

Yep. Jan 2013 on my heineken and may 2013 for my bulmers

I was in the tesco express on Parnell St. in Dublin this evening and all they had was the bulmers out on the floor and on special. I specifically wanted Heineken, and the "deal" for that was 2x 12x500ml for €30 which is a bit crap by comparison. That's the same deal they were running prior to this one. I'll check back again tomorrow, but not impressed so far.

I would think only the bigger stores have them and not the Tesco express

pissed

Picked up 4 slabs of Bulmers today

Best before is May 2013 ... not that they have a hope of lasting that long.

Yea I'd imagine you won't get all the deals in the tesco express stores as they're meant to be convenience stores so will tend to charge more

ProjectColossus

I suppose, it's just annoying that they seem to be running the deal for some drinks but not others, and also, that that they have plenty of stock of something but it works out much more expensive than it should. Still though, they might have different stock out today, worth checking.

Well done to tesco for this one.
With the BH coming up this weekend and Ireland giving it a go in the euros, this promotion will go down well with hard pressed consumers that are feeling the pinch.
Mad to think Róisín Shortall is moving ahead with her ideas on minimum pricing for a drink, especially when we pay more than they do in France & Germany amongst other countries already.
Who is she to tell you what you should pay for a drink!

FWIW, Tesco Express in Mulhuddart usually will give 3 x 8pcks of bud for the €24 if, like now, it is on slab special. Not sure about the other brands. They only carry limited stock though.

Its only a BB date, I have read lads in the beer forum drinking beer 10 years past its BB. Its not like it goes toxic at the stroke of midnight tonight.

When you register it recognises your address and only shows items deliverable from your local store which delivers. They might keep it off to stop people ordering it for delivery too.

I expect it is the breweries giving the beer at discounted prices on the agreement it will be sold low too. Wholesale prices can differ hugely, but of course the publicans do not acknowledge this and so keep moaning about alleged below cost selling, when I have never seen much hard evidence of it happening. In the UK they surveyed what would happen if below cost selling was banned and it showed that very few drinks were below cost.

Its mad to think of the taxpayers money squandered on investigating this when it is likely to turn out to be illegal to do, due to EU law. Scotland were already told they cannot do it.
