Bit of an odd one
But a good price if you already have the cling film dispenser.

Seems to be clearing out stock 75 cent for 60m

Oh no. That's cling film, not tin foil. Your after buying see through plastic wrap. My dad did the same. All smiles about how he got a great deal on tin foil. I don't know how he did it.

that’s about 20 years of cling film, to be fair it does say cling film on the label

I donated the whole lot to a local branch of meals for wheels (or the elderly and those who aren't able to get out and about- which includes a surprising number of younger people these days) (they were buying ingredients in the Eurospar on the Barnhall road- I still had them in the boot, transferred them over to their car- my good deed for the day- and they were happy).

Even handing them over- I didn't notice they were clingfilm (not that I was paying much attention)- they seemed happy though.

The Hearty Food company Cottage Pie 400g looked a bargain at €1.75 ... but it turns out it is basically a mash potato pie with a spoonful of beef and gravy in it

Eduard Khil · 23-07-2020 5:50pm

Hearty food company stuff has definitely gone down on standard the lasagna is very poor.

The hearty food company is just "tesco value" rebranded
"Eastmans" ham and "growers harvest" frozen veg are other ones

always check the ingredients, listed in order of greatest first, some cheap own brand stuff is pretty good, like some curry sauces can be high in more expensive ingredients like cream or coconut.

Those value meals are very watery

This is the cottage pie.
INGREDIENTS: Potato (59%), Beef (15%), Water, Onion, Carrot, Cornflour, Rapeseed Oil, Salt, Beef Fat, Tomato Purée, Caramelised Sugar, Onion Powder, Carrot Juice from Concentrate, Pepper, Black Pepper.

so 60g of beef, just a bit more than half a quarter pounder, miserable.

The "finest" cottage pie is 32%.

Eduard Khil · 23-07-2020 6:22pm

Volvic flavour water is €1 a bottle for the 1.5 litre

quarter pounder has 113g of beef, 60g is smaller than the little flat cheap burgers. And then what quality is the "beef" too.

That "hearty" range is best avoided

Oh yes !! Had the worst quiche ever from Eastmans. Couldn’t get any sort of taste from it.

MiskyBoyy · 06-08-2020 9:09pm

Check your post lads. Got a few €12 off €60 with my clubcard vouchers today

finbarrk · 07-08-2020 9:42am

I got some €15 off a €70 purchase vouchers.

zell12 · 07-08-2020 9:49am

We got no coupons, probably because we stopped shopping there a few months ago

I shop there every week and didn't get coupons

pigtail33 · 07-08-2020 9:54am

I rarely shopped there last year, and got no coupons then. I've been shopping there every week since lockdown and still got no coupons, just my usual Clubcard ones.

How many vouchers?

Same, Tesco would be my primary market and similarly no coupons received. Last time there were reported coupons sent with the earned vouchers I complained to their customer support as to why I didn't receive any money off vouchers for being a loyal customers while infrequent shoppers had. After some arguing they said they couldn't re-issue vouchers and as a poor compromise added 1k points to my clubcard.

billcullen1 · 07-08-2020 12:58pm

I have been a loyal Tesco shopper since early November. Especially during the lockdown with my shopping doubling as I was doing it for my elderly parents as well. Really disappointed to receive next to nothing after a huge significant spend. Contacted customer service and received a brush off, shocking stuff, really unhappy to say the least.

Quackster · 07-08-2020 1:03pm

I've only done the odd bit of shopping in Tesco in the past 18 months. Haven't got any spend & save vouchers from them in that time, until now. Got six €5 off €25 vouchers in the post yesterday.

That is probably what caused it, they have no need to attract big spenders.

I got 6x €10/€50 vouchers.

Atlantic Dawn · 07-08-2020 1:32pm

Got 6 €10 off €50 spends today, just a pity their beer deals are scarce. I've been using the clubcard for about 1/3 of my shops.

The_Conductor · 07-08-2020 6:56pm

No vouchers- but EUR44 in money back.
I used not shop in Tesco (at all) but did a fair bit of shopping with them during the lockdown (I'd guess we averaged >200 per week with them).
No thankyou from them- so I'm going to take my custom elsewhere.

me too !

vicwatson · 08-08-2020 8:57am

As a matter of interest, those that got 10/50 vouchers, have you been spending in Tesco as normal Or are these a lure? Seems completely hit and miss who got some

Discodog · 08-08-2020 9:03am

My Tesco shop has reduced a huge amount. I got the 12 off 60 vouchers which I won't use most of.

Phone credit is a useful way to increase the spend but remember that it has a 90 day expiry.

CH3OH · 08-08-2020 10:39am

I didn't get any money off spend vouchers. I shop there too often.

I emailed them just to satisfy myself, knowing I will get a bullsh1t " targeted marketed campaign" blah blah blah response.

Loyalty costs....... me!

Really need to get a second clubcard.

I have two clubcards, one got "money off spend" vouchers, the other which is used less didn't. Useless to me anyway because they don't accept them online and we're still cocooning. I shop with supervalu now instead as they give "money off spend" vouchers every week through the app that can be used online.
I wrote to tesco about it 4 days ago but go no response. They don't care.

rushfan · 08-08-2020 11:08am

Just Clubcard vouchers myself, though I'm not feeling the Tesco love any more. I mostly shop in Airside, using the "Scan as you Shop" facility. Fed up finding only 1 till open on a regular basis. So I asked one of the operators who told me that Tesco are simply not giving the staff the hours any more. So, I've gone back to my old stomping ground of JC's/Dunnes on the Rathbeale road. Happier too.

You mean you prefer queuing up for a cashier than just using scan as you shop?

rushfan · 08-08-2020 11:31am

Definitely not, probably should have clarified. The one open till serves everybody regardless of whether they're using "Scan" or not. It removes the supposed advantage of using same. Also, their butcher & fish counters have been closed since Covid started.

Postgrad10 · 08-08-2020 1:29pm

I got club card vouchers. No money off anything. Am moving to dunnes ,much nicer shopping experience and better deals.

machiavellianme · 08-08-2020 5:23pm

Finally got this response from Tesco: "Unfortunately these coupons are sent out at random and are a gesture.
These coupons have unique codes that can only be accepted in store."

Some gesture! Not exactly crying out for my custom.

OmegaGene · 08-08-2020 6:54pm

Three top-up vouchers expire after 90 days but Vodafone vouchers are valid for two years!
