    most visa card rewards schemes have it on this time of year, just google ptsb rewards

    The internet isn’t for everyone

    Spent tenner in drapery today. Voucher for the 5 off 25 was Valid from 1 to 16 aug, so I guess it’s only an offer running for the 2 weeks.

    Spent 76 in grocery, used 15 in vouchers.......... only got 2 * 5off 25 vouchers back

    That's correct. The points at which vouchers are triggered are when you spend over €25, €50, €100, 150 and €200.

    I think if you check you probably had a couple of plastic bags or something that won't trigger the voucher. You might have spent €74 and got two plastic bags for €1.40. Just guessing. Or baby food, lotto, cigarettes.

    Na, it seems to be as quackster says, a 75 spend doesn’t trigger anymore Vouchers than a 50 spend does

    Anyone get this email?
    Why did certain people get them and not others?
    How did Dunnes get your email (Valuclub application or other?)

    Didn’t get the email, but did get an extra 5 of 25 spend when doing the weekly shop. Was thinking they were maybe trying to get people to spend a bit more stocking up for Christmas with at the tubs and tins out

    Dunnes had selection boxes in store last week, so doubt they are for holloween. (though I think that's to get around the rule of reducing stock that hasn't been on sale previously)

    But I get your point

    Yeah, you get that with your regular spend & save voucher(s) if you spend €50+ on groceries on Thursday, Friday or Saturday.

    During covid they extended the validity if the 10offwhenyouspend50 coupons to 3 weeks. Now they brought it back to 10 days only and didnt realise. So have 3 expired coupons :-(

    i successfully used a voucher last week that was 1 day expired. Might be of use to try your expired vouchers.
    Have another that is 4 days expired. Going to attempt using it today.


    Edit: attempted older voucher today but it didnt work!!

    Anyone know why the self service checkouts don't let you use the vouchers without a member of staff approving it?

    They could be photocopied, which would a most terrible thing to do.

    I suppose, but they seem to have no issue with other customers in the normal checkout q giving their unused to the next person in the q Pre Covid they would even gave vouchers left their for next persons use. They really need to bring it all to smartphones.

    Feels like Dunnes have inflated their prices and not passed on the vat reduction. Feeling very, very expensive to go to dunnes now.

    Will Dunnes have an online grocery front so we can see how expensive they are?
    Dunnes Stores Set To Roll-Out Grocery Delivery Service Next Month
    It is believed that the retailer is planning to put up to 70 dedicated home delivery trucks on the road as early as next month. It has plans to offer the service nationwide but will initially focus on Dublin and surrounding counties from a depot near the M50.

    Much of what you find in the grocery isles, including all the food essentials, is zero-VAT rated so there was no reduction.

    I always found Dunnes to be a decent bit more expensive & that the €10er off a €50 spend make you break even relative to a spend at Tesco.

    They don’t do a whole pile of deals either and the ones they do aren’t of the same level as the others
