    Am I right in thinking that it's for deliveries?
    As for the cost of delivery. I'd say 23€ is about right when you take in wages, vehicle costs and diesel..
    Probably doesn't account for the picking costs.

    I know I wouldn't allow a new customer if they spent less than 20 per delivery. It upset the sales reps no end.

    I've seen these in France. Supermarkets have turned their warehouses, that they need anyway, into click and collect bases. All they needed was a few extra staff to do the collection and a few parking bays for customers to park. Since the customers are not allowed in the warehouse, you don't need special lighting, music, displays, etc... And it's easier to manage the stocks that way too

    You give it to the delivery driver and your card should be refunded

    Tesco have some click and collect here, e.g. Maynooth has one sited in the old store (they built a new store about 6 years ago to replace an 'old' one built in 2001!)

    In Clarehall too, but they still have a store. What I meant was a click and collect linked to a warehouse and no customers allowed in. Saves a great deal of money to the comapny

    This is what they have in Maynooth. They have an entire store- which pickers use to fulfill online orders- its where Tesco used to be before the new Extra opened a few years ago.........

    Are these vouchers only given against groceries?? Was looking at purchasing a laptop and wondered if they would accept the €25 off.

    Unless the first online discount gives reasons why other vouchers wouldn't be accepted it should be fine.

    tried giving it to the driver today and he would not take it. I had to tell him that he should take it but he said it was off my next shop that my order was already paid for. I did insist he take it but he said he couldnt guarantee it would be refunded as he had never taken one of these coupons before.

    The driver does not know what he was talking about by the sounds of it. I was told from the driver last night that all stores got a memo on the coupon thing. Drivers are to bring them back and get the manager to call customer service to arrange the refund due.
    They took one off me.


    I would suggest you call them and explain what happened.

    Tried that as well with the click and collect, the guy there said to go to Customer service. I've sent them a message, will see what they come back with

    It is specifically not valid for Baby formula, Lottery tickets, tobacco products or Petrol/Diesel.

    Some people had success with petrol, there is nothing at the back of the voucher about fuel (although the one from Super Valu mentions not to be used for fuel)

    If some people had luck with them being accepted- it was through negligence on the part of the cashier- or a lack of understanding of how the scheme was supposed to operate. We also have reports of people cheerfully loading up on baby formula with coupons. Neither are supposed to be allowed- and it is spelt out quite clearly in the competitor coupon leaflet that you can find at any of the customer service desks.

    Ah, right so.

    I received an answer from the CS regarding click and collect: the staff will accept the coupons. Happy days

    Its accepted on close to everything to shop so that'll be fine; not withstanding the standard issues of staff sometimes not having a clue.

    Yes, they just take away the baby formula from the total price for voucher purposes.

    In practice- most of them don't bother- but it is what they're supposed to do.

    No it's wrong. It should have been accepted. Email customer care with the details. I've used them. They are 'spend & save" , ignorant sales assistant is the problem here

    Why don't Tesco just drop their bloody prices instead of all these stupid false deals and gimmicks?

    They still charge too much on many items. I can buy many things cheaper in my local Eurospar than I can in Tesco, and these items aren't on special in Eurospar either.

    It's like the scam matching Lidl and Aldi pricing. Conveniently though their is no breakdown on your till receipt of what was actually cheaper in Aldi or Lidl. Sometimes nothing was cheaper according to the till receipts. And why does it have to be money off vouchers on your next shop anyway?

    What's wrong with price matching at the checkout there and then?

    I use Aldi for just about everything now. Only go to Tesco for niche items I can't get in the Germans store.[/QUOTE

    I agree! Tesco is gone **** crap ass gimmicks, it must be embarrassing for the till worker to give them 1 cent off difference to use for the next shopping after spending alot on their groceries, Not only that Aldi is cheaper also Dealz good with stuff as well .

    If a dunnes voucher says 'not valid for giftcards', can you still buy giftcards in tesco using that voucher?
