I spent €21 in Tesco jervis yesterday and practically had to beg the girl for my single token!

RedRebel · 11-06-2012 9:03pm

I've got a fair few extra vouchers by picking the queue with a lad on the til and just asking "Can I get a few of the luggage vouchers there aswell? Sound" They don't care either way and usually just pass on a handful. Also, keep in mind if you spend say €40 on a piece of luggage your giving them 10 vouchers but getting 2 back (2 x €20 spent).

The collection is growing nicely

Good value in luggage in Debenhams at the moment. Anyone have any reviews on Tripp luggage?
I was in Tesco on Sunday and spent €150 and got no vouchers and wasn't offered any either. Do ye think if I go back will there give me vouchers for that amount.

Yes, they will. I brought in a receipt and explained that I didn't get the vouchers, and they ave them out no questions asked.

Always loads of receipts around the automatic till thingy, assuming your own purchase was less than €20, grab a receipt for more than €20, take it to the little man with the beard looking after the self service tills and get your coupon.

Harvey Normans have the original Wenger bags, they look a bit different to the ones Tesco are selling. The ones in HN have the Victorinox/Swiss Army crest on the back. The backpack in HN has loads of thingies inside and a price tag of €50 or so...

The €70 one's are the one's we get in work. Best backpack I've EVER had, how the rep on the Tesco ones are €50 I'll never know

redalan · 16-06-2012 8:43pm

Would someone who has purchased the cabin bag mind weighing it?

Agent_47 · 16-06-2012 9:09pm

A few questions,

Are these Wenger bags the real deal or cheaper imitation versions?

How long is the promotion running for.

Thanks IrishHomer, for that. Anything under 3kgs is good for the likes of Ryanair and Aer Lingus.

The cabin bag is 2.6kg and the large bag is 3.4kg.

I bought the large one today, and got the coupons for that purchase:) So I had enough to get the cabin one to:)

Got a rucksack and cabin bag today and they gave me another 11 vouchers!

jammstarr · 17-06-2012 4:56pm

I picked up the messenger bag yesterday. Has a nice feel to it, looks like good construction.

Dammer · 18-06-2012 9:14pm

I was going to buy one of the cabin size bags but after looking at the quality of them I changed my mind quite quickly.

I think the best one there is the Travel Bag with wheels, not sure if its worth €30 + 10 coupons. Poor value IMO

ccull123 · 20-06-2012 1:55pm

As anyone actually purchased any of this luggage from tesco??
Any comments on quality?

Dammer · 21-06-2012 3:37pm

Quality of the Tesco Wenger set is, IMO not good.

On a different note, I saw one of these in TK Maxx Swords for around ~ €40 earlier today. Was very tempted but had already bought some outdoor gear there.

Now that backpack WAS well put together.

Go to tesco and be niece to the cashier:) I got 15 coupons for purchase worth 60 euro

dowtchaboy · 02-07-2012 1:08am

I picked up the rucksack - don't have any great interest in any of the rest.

I'm fairly happy with it - there's a padded section immediately next to your back that would hold a laptop - easily 15" - and there's a spot for an iPad or a netbook on the "outside" but that wouldn't have so much protection. There's the usual 2 stringy sections for water bottles etc - didn't seem to be a specific section for a phone (either mars bar or smartphone) nor were there any knack hooks or winders for ipod/earphones.

I'm happy with the quality and appearance. It's not a specifically geeky-oriented laptop carrier though, and it's not the one I'd choose if I wanted to carry a MacAir on a motorbike or something! (note: I don't have either.....)

I'll be using it for ipad/netbook/laptop, meter and rg45 cables and stuff, camera and spare batteries and a rainjacket - my ManBag basically!

Re vouchers - best bet is to ask the person monitoring the self-checkouts - I'd say they have a little more time and flexibility to deal with you than the harassed women on the checkouts, and they have a pile of books of the vouchers in a drawer.

last thursday a nice cashier did give me 11 ofr my €35 euro of shopping, so at least nearly up to 20 myself, so that should do me !

molly09 · 03-07-2012 10:21pm

HI

just wondering is the "18" suitcase trolley" suitable to carry on ryanair?

Molly

doctorg · 04-07-2012 12:31am

For those looking for the vouchers but don't want to spend alot

You can pick up loads of them here http://www.ebay.ie/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570&_nkw=tesco+wenger

dahamsta · 04-07-2012 12:36am

I've used the quick-checkouts for two of these, and still have my original vouchers. Staff didn't ask for them.

yes, but it's quite small, 20" or 21" is better & approved

Or just ask at the checkout - I got a handful -17 (seventeen) last week in Clare Hall :cool: :cool: :cool:

DrZeuss · 06-07-2012 1:09pm

Picked up a messenger bag today, very nice quality.
It says it will accept 17" laptop but my 16" one would not fit

Such a shame as it looked perfect.

Mr.Crinklewood · 06-07-2012 2:30pm

Some reviews / details here:-

Harsh, sorry to hear that. I got that bag too and the 17" capacity in the description is being really optimistic on their part.

Will they be accepted in Tesco Ireland as they look slightly different?

We get these in work (backpacks) and they are quality, best backpack i've ever had.

Looks like you should really be getting some endorsement fees from Tesco! (even if they are they are being a little less than honest, since what you were talking about is not quite the same):

That's misleading, alright. "Boards.ie" is not a... reviewing entity. Should have credited "random Boards.ie forum poster" - but that doesn't quite have the same ring to it.

Murta · 10-07-2012 12:13pm

Surely they're in violation of some sort of advertising trading standards rule.
- did they get permission to use the "poster's" quote from the poster / boards.ie
- surely they need to attribute the quote to the poster and boards.ie.

wmpdd3 · 10-07-2012 12:18pm

funny there's no irish ebay sellers for vouchers.

ShaneU · 11-07-2012 10:50pm

Hahaha Tesco snooping on my threads now, need to be careful, might end up misquoted in the paper the next day!

paddydriver · 11-07-2012 10:53pm

If checkout girl refuses me extra tokens I am going to threaten her with a bad write up on boards.ie... that'll show her:pac:

wmpdd3 · 11-07-2012 10:59pm

Are you going to fed her kids if she's fired?

chris85 · 11-07-2012 11:00pm

Hows the backpack? I am gonna head up tomorrow and grab either the messenger bag or the backpack. For cycling I need the backpack to allow some air flow on my back.

I used a combination of Irish and English vouchers and had no problems but they are quite different front and back. The girl just counted them and threw them into the space below the cash register.
