Tesco - Tin of sweets BOGOF

Don't know if this has been posted before - did a quick search and couldn't find anything....

Was in Tesco Killarney yesterday and they have the large tins of Quality Street, Roses, Celebrations all 'Buy on Get one Free' - ie €12.50 for 2! Great to stock up for Xmas - if they're not discovered in the cupboard and eaten by then!!

Tesco Tralee also have stock of this.

Saruman · 04-09-2009 02:12PM

I saw these on Wednesday and availed of the offer

Also lunch meal deal of a tesco sandwich, bottle of apple/orange juice and a packet of Tayto for €2.50

By the way, the sweet offer was advertised on the TV last night for the UK. They go for £10 over there which is about the same (close enough) as €12.50 all things considered.

... some day the multi-national retailers like Tesco, Argos, Homebase, M&S, Waterstones, etc... will wake up and get better value from their TV advertising by using duel pricing in their ads (£10/€12.50) and co-ordinating their promotions across countries.

I suppose some day the penny will drop in the retail executives heads. (But I won't hold my breath) Until then it's great to see Tesco offer this in Ireland. Lets have more UK offers available in Ireland please.

anyone know when this offer expires?

buzz55 · 07-09-2009 11:39AM

Great offer, thanks OP.

Question re freezing them - would this affect the taste of the chocolate after defrosting?

Not that I've noticed and I keep my choc stash in the freezer all the time. Creme eggs from the freezer. Mmmmmmmmm

I had a €5 off online shop voucher (see below), and a free delivery voucher, so I got the two tins for €7.50 delivered.

How did you do that? Was free delivery one voucher used when shopping and the €5 off handed to the driver?

TequilaMockingBird · 09-09-2009 08:57PM

No, both vouchers were given to the driver. I wasn't sure they would accept both, but it was worth a shot. €3.75 each - nice!

Offer expires 15th of this month!

The Fool · 11-09-2009 02:33PM

Only Roses left in Clearwater Finlas today, but said there's be more in this evening

eddiehobbs · 12-09-2009 12:42AM

This is just tesco up to their old tricks again, inflating the price to make the offer appear better than it is. Theese tins retailed at €9.99 last year. Still a good deal tho but not much better than last year when they were 33% off at €6.99 each.

Sock Monster · 13-09-2009 08:32PM

I caved in, bought two boxes, a "Quality Street" and a "Roses" today in "Tesco" on the Donore Road.

The expiration dates are next February and next April so I’ll try to resist the urge to have them all scoffed by Halloween.

hollands · 17-09-2009 10:36PM

i SAW THE OFFER IN TESCO bALLYBRACK BUT BEWARE. lOOK AT THE WEIGHT, TINS TAT ARE NORMALLY 1.4KG OR 1.2 KG ARE MOSTLY 980 GRAMMES WITH THIS OFFER.

ecom · 18-09-2009 09:10AM

as far as i recall, this time last year tesco were doing a similar offer (i bought loads of em), however last year the price was €6.00 each.

The €12.50 for 2 is still a good price though

It was the 15th so they must have extended it.

The_Conductor · 18-09-2009 04:37PM

Offer no longer available in Tesco Maynooth.

Longerview · 18-09-2009 08:50PM

Tesco's latest "Price News" showing this offer on front page and small print under photo of sweet tins states "Cadbury offer valid until 22/09/09. There's stacks of them in Tesco Bloomfield and Ballybrack .....another few days left to be tempted !!!!!!!!!!!
