    Anyone know what the wine and pork are like? Worth a punt?

    The Chilean merlot is v nice.
    Probably not an issue but it has the plastic cork so not one to leave lying around too long.

    How come there is €2 off the wine, i thought alcohol was now exempt from vouchers and promotions such as this.

    The app is free. They cant give you a discount on alcohol for purchasing another product.

    I used to get vouchers in the post from tesco that were free, I used them sometimes to buy only alcohol without purchasing another product, but I cant any more.

    That wasnt a voucher for a particular item... you had to spend X for the voucher to be valid.
    Lidl cant include a voucher for spend X on wine or buy 6 bottles get 25 percent off.
    They can include a voucher for discount on purchase of the specified item only.

    Now i understand. The last thing I wanted to do was clog up the thread with the new laws regarding alcohol purchases, thanks for resolving that quick and concisely.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,620 ✭✭✭✭okidoki987


    50c off next coupon.

    Wonder was the offer a bit too generous and starting to become loss making? 5% back on all purchases over 25 euro would save the average family a few hundred a year ! I was going to sign up to An post when i saw that Lidl offer myself also.


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    Id say for both An Post and Lidl (and maybe the other retailers involved) it was a tool to try attract new customers, and it ran its course (i.e. it reached the end of its life and/or attracted them the customers they wanted). Ulster Bank used to do a similar scheme. It makes sense as a way to get people on board, but its a promotional tool, so was always going to run its course, imo.

    It was very very advantageous - Lidl is cheap enough as it is, but to be getting another 5% on your weekly shop is excellent, and then for the last 9 months or so, we have been getting freebies on Lidl Plus too.

    Im sad to see it go but sure what can you do.

    Does it only affect the credit card? It seems to be still advertised as a feature on their current account https://www.anpost.com/Money/Current-Account/Earn-Moneyback I know there is a €5 a month charge for that service but it you offset the €30 stamp duty charge on a credit card there isn't a huge difference, assuming you are a regular lidl shopper to take advantage.

    Should have read my own link :o

    "Please note, we have decided to end our MoneyBack programme. You will continue to earn MoneyBack when you make a qualifying purchase with our retail partners until the programme ends on 30th April 2021. The final MoneyBack payments will be made at the end of May. For further information, please click here."

    Ah well it was good while it lasted. I can see a lot of cancelled anpost credit / current accounts in May.

    I got a €5 off €25 spend offer via the app. Hard to spend €25 when alcohol isn't included!

    Why? How often do you shop there? Roughly when did you sign up?

    I tend to shop there a couple of times a week. Not sure why they picked me! I have been using the app since it started.

    Hopefully some others might get the offer, would be very useful for families. I just shop for myself.

    Maybe you could use it to buy something in the (MIDL) middle aisle
